CENTURY OF MAP CHANGING
How Lines Have Been Moved Back and
Forth in Europe In Constant
Series of Warfare.

A hundred years ago Napoleon Bona.
parte, who had some plans for the re-
arranging of the map of Europe, went
down in defeat before those plans
were completed. Others rearranged
the map of Europe, but not ultimately
according to his notions. For half Of
the century after his Waterloo the
process continued briskly. For the
second half Europe was more settled.
There could be no more effective re-
view Of the century than Prof A NJ.
Wheeler's famous lecture on the bat
tie of Waterloo.
Perhaps the centenary of the turning
point in Napoleon's career would ar
rest little attention, were it not for
the upheaval of Europe now in process.
Napoleon exalted war, and his down
fall but shifted the laurels to other
bTows, while the process of exaltation
went on. That which is now in OPP
GRAFTON is a process of wars downfall.
How much of alteration of the map
viii follow is uncertain, nor is it es-
sential. 1t is probable that we have
arrived near to the end of map chang
ing, as such. And the chiefest rea-
son for recognizing the downfall of
Napoleon is its prophecy, about to be
fulfilled after the lapse of century,
