GERMAN ATROCITIES"

New York city.
If there are Americans still who take
an ignoble pride in questioning the
truth of the ft-repeated tales of Ger

tory thinkers are likely to be shocked
into unwilling realization of what the
world at large has already grasped.
for the true facts in the case have
come out at last. Mr.. J. H. Morgan in
his book entitled German Atroci-
ties" has established beyond shadow
of a doubt Germanys culpability

Lege on to Louvain, witnessing at
every stage of the journey exactly
what occurred-exactly as it occurred
incidents often denied and almost
unbelievably revolving. Can any Amer
lean read an account like this and
still feel undecided as to the real truth
about atrocities?
German Atrocities" has been read
and commended by many we'll known
and prominent people, by none higher
than the great international lawyer,
James Bryce.
Much as we may shrik from the dis
graceful facts after reading German
Atrocities" we must see with a keen
vision what Belgium, France and other
countries have experienced in these hor-
rors of German brutality.

THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME."
BY John Bucl an. The George H. Doran
company, publishers, New York city.
In these strenuous wartime days ev-
erything connected with the great battles
which are being enacted daily in Europe
are interesting and nothing more read
able has been written than John Buchan' 8
story of one of the greatest of all the
battles, namely, THE Battle of the
Somme.'
Mr. Buchans story is wonderfully
readab BILE account of the Somme campaign
of special value in its bearing on the
present offensive of the allies-its real
object-the gigantic preparatory moves
which led up to it-and many other prob

war. s~s e " s8ise. .ya4-
Mr.. Buchan tells of a communication
trench, which was a tunnel a hundred
yards long, lined with timber through
out, and SO deep as to be beyond the
reach of the heaviest Shells The small
manhoies used for, snipers' posts were
skilfuly contrived Tunnels led to them
from the trenches, and the openings were
artfully screened by casual-looking
debris But the greatest marvels were
the dug-outs One at Fricourt had nine
rooms and five bolt-hoies; it had iron
doors, gas curtains, lioleum on the floors,
wallpaper and pictures on the walls, and
boosted good bathroom electric light,
and electric bells. The staff which occu-
pied it must have lived in luxury. Many
of these dug-outs had two stories, 30

ing to the first suite, and a second stair
of the same length conducting to lower
story. In such places machine guns
could be protected during any lombard
ment. But the elaboration Of such
dwellings went far beyond military needs.
When the Germans boosted that their
front on the west was impregnable, they
sincerely believed it. They thought they
had established a continuing city, from
which they would emerge only at a tri-
umphant peace. The crumbling-not of
their. front trenches only, but of their
whole first position-was such a shock
as King Priams court must have re-
ceived when the Wooden Horse dis

citadel.

crossing in all districts under

but the crop is light with little or
no Glover in the southern coun-
lies. Although corn made rapid
growth, il is still small for the
middle of July. However, the
fields are clean, the color is good
and the crop as a whole is very
promising. EARLY potatoes are
being harvested, but the tubers
are mostly small and the yield is
not quite UP TO expectations. A
good soaking rain is needed for
potatoes and pastures and would
benefit corn. Considerable dam
