The soul of Germany" was
the subject of discourse on Mon
day night, by prof. Phillips one
of the able instructors at the In
stitute: This gentleman display
ed much research and knowledge
of the german character and
charistic building devices. 1t
would have been worth your
while to have given half hour
of your valuable time to this
learned discourse.
1t was shown that the soul of
Germany is a aghostly living thing
and a menace to the world.
John Millions tragic portrayal of
sa.ans ambitions. and who would
ruin heaven with malicious hate,
is about the cost of soul of the
Kaiser as Philips snaps him as
he stalks forth in ruthless hate.
and would instill his spirit into
all his subjects great or small.
Listen to Milton as he writes
of Satans ejicton from Heavens
Him the Almighty will hurl
headlong flaming from the eth
ereal sky, with hideous ruin and
combustion down to bottomless
perdition" according to the ac-
cepted teaching of German phil
osophers in the Universities and
leading schools of the empire
might makes right and hate your
enemies is the slogan. Will the
God of Love and Peace ever per-
nit the gosl ell of hate and ruin 10
rule in Immanuels land-where
the Prince of Peace has appoint
ed for liberty and the pursuit of
happiness. Not while our Faith
er-God is the author of liberty
and has such mighty defenders
of the faith as America. England
France and Italy. Prof Phillips
gave his audience clear insight
into the hideOus German military
character. Its q great heather
judgement to crush the rest of
mankind and make them slaves
to pay the stupendous cost of the
war. America Az d the allies will
never give up, till this arch enc
my of human rights is driv en-
from power and punished for try
ing to wreck a world.

seemed rather premature, in view of the fact that Lenroot may have been nominated. It that the president going to get behind Davies in the cam paign. It would perhaps be proper in ordinary cir for the president further the candidacy of of his party. But these not ordinary times. They times when party issues trifling in comparison with greater things. The great thing is loyalty and to loyalty Lenroot has been proved. He has loyalty supported the administration greater measure than Mir. Davies has had an opportunity to support it. Presidential support of the latter against the former would seem to be an unnecessary injection of party politics into contest between two of undoubted loyalty.
 Such interference would be warranted in a contest between Davies and Thompson then the president could appeal to the loyalty of voters. In contest between Davies and Lenroot he could appeal only to the selfish, partisan spirit of the voters.
 So. think it would have been better to withhold that Washington announcement until it had been decided whether Lenroot Thompson had been vic orous. In the event of the nomination of the former it would not be wise to make any encouragement of the presidents intentions.

The Advertised Offensive

The German general staff has invited the neutral correspondents out to the western line to witness the German operations in the great offensive According to dispatches the correspondents expected to leave for the of the festivities yesterday The hour of the rising of the curtain not announced nor was the immediate location of the theater. The omis sion of these details is probably intended to be a slight shred of surprise for the allies.
 It is not stated in the dispatches that the general staff is going to charge the correspondents any ad mission fee and therefore, in of failure neglect open the show the general staff would not be under the necessity returning box-offce receipts or issuing rain-checks.
 There is of course. the possibility that the Ger mans really intend to start great offensive about the indefinite date advertised that is to say within few days. It is possible that they count upon the of to be taken by contrares by the allies who would therefore be unprepared for it. Or. the other hand the allies, believing that the Germans really intended the early offensive and uncertain to the point of attack, would try to pre- pare for every point and so would not be thor oughly prepared at any. In brief it may be the German purpose put the allies through the acrobatic stunt of Jumping sdeways'
 Within the last week American military observers who the first to foresee the supreme German of fensive have reached conclusion that none is in- tended and that the show only defensive intended foresall an allied offensive. But all these are words and conjecture.
 There some patent facts. though, that have presented themselves to laymen One of these is the constant feeling of the allied front from the to Switzerland, by the Germans They have been experimenting with every mile of it. There have been no apparent efforts fo break through at any place and apparent readiness to follow up a break. Though it is reported there heavy German re- behind the lines they have not been so dis posed so far the allied airmen have discovered as to take part quickly in great offensive.
 Another fact is that considerable German force is still operating in the east extending Teutonic ag gressions wide territory extending from Fin land to the Black There were, it is said, about 1000 900 German prisoners Russian hands, and the world has heard of their restoration to the German ranks though, certainly, that would have been done if Germany had wiled it. Enough time has elapsed since Russia lay down to have effected such transfer
 It appears from all these circumstances that Germany considers operations in the west whether German offensive allied offensive, for the pres ent at least. a secondary matter.
 Returning to the invitation to the correspondents to turn out and something worth seeing there is still possibility that the German general staff is merely adding touch of humor to the grinness of war. There is little humor about the German but it would be just like him to break into it this inappropriate way.
