HOW ABOUT THAT BOND?
\ SOULLESS MACHINE.

Belgium and Northern France in the early days of the war, and followed up these victories in the west by an- initiating the Russians in the east, and overrunning Serbia, Montenegro and Rumania in the south, admira- ton was expressed on many sides for the wonderful organization and sys- tenn which made possible such a seemingly invincible, perfect military machine. There was frequent refer ence made to Teutonic "supermen" and the opinion was expressed in nu- merous neutral capitals that the Ger man armies could never be defeated on the battlefield. This bubble has been completely exploded by the bril- liant successes of the French British, Belgian, Italian and American arm ies. The gigantic Hun machine has been struck a fatal blow and is rap idly tottering. The much boasted 'impenatrable'' Hindenburg line has been battered and torn until it is now almost beyond recognition and the Allies, under the magnificent leader smashing their way through to the German border.
 How was it possible for the ene-
 mics of Germany to check the in- vaders? How could a mammoth military machine, better prepared and superior in number to opposing forces, in 1914, be checked by
 weaker opponent. How could Joffre
 turn back the Huns at the Marne
 when they were almost in sight of Paris? How could Haig win repeat
 ed successes on the Somme in 1916?
 And how could Foch and Pershing
 ing a slight numerical superiority in
 favor of the Allies? With their just
 ly famed system of defenses, how
 could the Huns war machine be hammered and beaten at every turn?
 The answer is simple. The alleged
 invincible German machine could be successfully opposed and routed just because it was and is a machine. It lacks a SOUL. With all their marvel ous resources to call upon with all their years of Prussian training, with all their intrigue and barbarity the Huns lacked SOUL. Their organiza- ton was a machine and nothing else German soldiers are automans and nothing more, without initiative without inspiration, without SOUL. And that is why the Allies could check the Huns-that is why the Kaiser's fiendish plans were all to nought. This lack Of soul in the Ger l man war machine, in the very Ger | man government itself has been ap- l parent for over half a century, It
 was noticeable to John Stuart Blaclzie, 1 a visitor to Berlin as far back as 1 1853, for he penned the following 1 prophetic lines after a visit to the | Prussian capital in that year:
