strength consists in their absolute dis

my FOUR YEARS in GERMANY


Although without doubt Germany
knows America through its policy OF
intrigue and spying it knows little OF
Americans as is proven by the entire
mistaken policy of Germany with a
nation that strove to keep its neu-
trality until its patience was enirely
exhausted.
When you see in the feature photo
play production of Ambassador Ger
ards "My -Four Years in Germany
the repsenatve of Kultur in the per-
son of the Kaiser as he shook his
finger under the nose OF our Ambass-
ador with the expressed warning that
"he would stand no nonsense from
America after the war;" you will bet
ter understand the reasons for
Americas present position in the
world conflict.
The insolent treatment of our Am
bassador by the Kaiser, theoretically
tantamount to the latteI1s shaking
his finger in the face of our president
and of our nation with which he was
not even then at war, is only one of
the long series of incidents which
are only appreciated at their true
value when seen in sequence as they
have been seen by the Ambassador
himself.
"My Four Years in Germany" is
big dramatic production that will give
Americans better understanding of
the most important page in world
history.

These wines can harm no one.
They cannot possibly make a man \

to George Z. Hamilton. acting presi-
dent OF the board.
I'VE ought TO continue the study
Of German in ,our schools so that our
children may better know the great
German people. We hope to live in
peace with the German people long
after Won Tirpitz and Hindenburg
have> lost their control, and besides
we need it for our business relations
in both peace and war;" says DR.. Van
Schaick.
Writing from Paris, DR.. Van Shaick
gives his support to the teachers
fight in urgent words. He says:
1--WE must drive harder for a higher
paid teaching force so that Indian
apoli and Minneapolis, New York
and Boston cannot draw away the
people whom we need most. In fact
some OF the teaching blood and
idealism OF every part OF our country
ought TO be drawn into the schools
OF Washington.
For the sake OF the children we
must get away from the idea that
these places in the public schools are
jobs to which everybody once ZAP
pointed has an inalienable right. We
must tackle this problem from the
