England pas taken as her model the

years she has leisurely. perhaps lazlly,
and with infinite slowness, pursued her
path toward a social Indignation OF an

idly. and always in a grossly practical
spirit. held herself to the task OF shaping
a society in which free men could live and
yet be citizens. She has had no theory OF
herself. no consciousness Of her destiny,
no will to power. She has had almost no
national heroes. and has always been con-
sttutionally frigid to her great men,
grudging them the material for their eX-
perimentations on her people, Indifferent
to their expositions of her duty and her
imperial destiny. granting them a chance
TO die for her with no more encourage

lowed an empire TO be won for her by her
restless younger sons. has shown no graft

cryings Of the pack, seeming thus to be
mere functionless automatisms. naturally
enough come TO be regarded as patiently
absurd.
When compare German society with
the wolf pack. and the feelings. desires
end impulses of the individual German
with those of the wolf or dog. am not
intending to use vague analogy. but to
call attention to a real and gross identity.
The aggressive social animal has a COM
pete and consistent series of psychlcal
reactions, which will necessarily be trace
able in his feelings and his behavior,
whether he is a biped or a quadruped, a
man or an insect. The psychical neces-
si,y that makes the wolf brave in a massed
attack is the same as that which makes
the German brave is massed attack;
the psychical necessity which makes the
dog submit to the whip of his master and
profit by it makes the German soldier sub
nit TO the lash of his officer and profit by
il. The instructive process which makes
the dog among his fellows irritable. sus-
picious, ceremonious, sensitive about his
honor and Immediately ready to fight for

identical effects.

hall and the gutter. or from his own rlch
store of fippant and ironic realism.
The biological meaning of these pecul-
iarities renders them Ineligible and con-
sistent with one another. The predaceous
social animals in attack or pursuit are
particularly sensitive TO the encourage
ment afforded by one another's voices.
The pack gives tongue because OF the
functional value Of the exercise, which Is
clearly Of Importance in keeping individ-
uals in contact with one another. and IN
stimulating in each the due degree OF
aggressive rage That serious and mar
row passion tends naturally 10 concentrate
itself upon some external object or quar-
~, which becomes by the very fact an
object of hate TO the exclusion OF any
other feeling, whether Of sympathy, self
possession or sense OF the ludlcrous.
The curious spectacle of Germans greet
ing one another with God punish Eng
land" and the appropriate response Is
therefore no accidental or meaningless
phenomenon, but a manifestation of an
instructive necessity; and this explanation
is confirmed by the immensely wide cur
iency of the performance, and the almost
siman gravity with which it could be car
ried out. 1t succeeded because 1t had
functional value, just as similar move
ments in England have failed because
they have had no functional value, and
could have none in people of the social
lied type, with whom unity depends on
different kind of bond.
The wolf, then, is the father of the war
song. and it is among peoples OF the
lupine type alone that the war song Is
rsed with real seriousness. Animals OF
the socialized type are not dependent for
their morale upon the narrow intensities
Of aggressive rage. Toward such mani
fcsta.jons of it as concerted cries and
war songs they feel no strong instructive
impulyion, and arc therefore able to pre-
