"Not Taps"


Not Taps But Reveillc."
An explanation of the simple story
of the death of a young avIator-per-
haps a cadet-who is killed while in
training at a Southern field, is not
needed for homes where the khaki
uniformed messenger boy unknowing-
ly brings the message that A son. q
brother or a sweetheart, has passed
into the eternal existence while serv-
ing, as best he could. his flag, his
country and God. To the homes where
such messages have not been re-
ceived, Not Taps But Reveille." is
n message of preparedness. Beauty in
thought purity in style and simplicity
in text. Not Taps But Reveille." is
a masterpiece which parallels the best
that marked the masters of the past.
1t is a sermon. worthy of the best
produced by man. Not Taps But

"OId Days on the Farm
Real memoirs of life on the pioneer
farm of western Ontario. Canada.
back when the newspapers were as
rare as peace treaties today. A &.
Wood recalls some OF the high lights
in his youth SWiVel-Chair comman-
derS of the high-brow ultra Ericult-
urist brigade are tapped with no
degree of geEtleness by The author
who recalls some of the transforma-
tions which the farm has undergone
since the days of coon hunting and
the days when bars were more COM
mon than hish-powered roadsters on
the Lincoln Highway.
The life which Mr.. Wood pictures
in his book is that of the pioneer
which is fast fading with the snake
rail fences, the OK teams. the fail
and the other Old-fashioned en-
ourances of the farm. There is a
touch of the sympathetic along with
a strong vein of humor of the stall
wart spirit of the fast-fading and
almost extinct primitive farm. Es-
peCially for those residing under the
shadow of the dome of the Capitol
who were reared in the back woods
districts this collection of stories and
sketches is particularly attractive. It
is worth a years sittings at a movie
show to the former farmer boy who
left the farm to seek success else
where. 1t is gem of the rarest va
riety. "Old Days on the Farm" by

German victory would only make 1t
more so. Defeated, 1t is not too much
to hope that some even of this caste
will realize that they are also made
of common clay.
The Hohenzollern, the Army, the
civic officials, the landed nobility,
these rule Germany, with little refer
ence to the wishes of the people. BY
connections of society, marriage, and
business, they form one group, con
sidering itself chosen by God to rule
Germany-and the world.
Is it a wonder the so-called German
Parliament is farce? Practically ali
legislation comes to it from the ruling
caste, represented by the Bundesrat.
And 1t comes usually with clear state
ment as to what changes in it will be
tolerated. Opposition to Government
proposals, any new proposals inconve.
nient to the Government are usually
met by sneering retort from the Chan
cellor or one of his Ministers, thai
makes one wonder how any man Of
real character can consent to give his
time as a member under such condi-
tons.
A victorious Prussianism will GER
tainly not fail to make the Reichstag
even more helpless than 1t is. Based
on the claim that the Prussian system
was the cause of its triumph, it would
greatly increase its efforts to make the
election of democratically minded
members an impossibility. 1t would
more frequently and more resolutely
dictate what the Reichstag could do or
could not do.
1t will be only after defeat that
the people themselves will develop
the courage to call for new deal. The
democratic forces are abundant
enough and able enough now, but
those who have come in contact with
them know how hopeless they feel
about achieving any material reforms
in a country that bristles with bayo-
nets.
And finally the tax burden. Mill
tary autocracy and a crushing tax go
together; for no state activity costs
so much and produces so little as do
the activities of great standing arm
les. And triumphant Prussia will
surely wish to increase the army, will
claim it necessary to defend the new
territory it has seized And under
the circumstances poor Michel will.
as ever, have no choice but to pay
If by our efforts we can show that
the Prussian system can be conquered
then may we expect the people of
Germany to arise in their might and
wipe it out And then will the way be
clear for that Alliance for Peace, in
the path of which Prussia has for
long been the stumbling block.
But with a victorious military au-
tocracy, no such step toward Democ-
racy can be expected. This can be
brought about only by defeat of the
pernicious system that has so long
dominated Germany, and now has dis,
closed its ambition to dominate the
world.

Germany's Gain From German Defeat
BY GEORGE WAGNER, Assistant Professor of Zoology
University of Wisconsin
Published under direction Of

To those who know Germany from
personal experience, the question
arises as to whether the German peo
Pile, aside from the ruling caste. have
anything to gain from final victory
in this war. If there Is truth in the
philosophy of Democracy, the answer
must be NO. The German masses
can gain nothing by victory of Ger
man autocracy. they have much to
gain from its defeat.
Germany Is only an expanded Prus.
STA, and its curse Is militarism. A
German victory would only help this
military autocracy to strengthen its
own position. Seldom has triumph
ant despot extended the civic rights of
his people. Victory makes an auto
cratic government arrogant and over
bearing. 1t Is In defeat that 1t yields
to the demands of those who bear the
burden.
1t was thus with Prussia in 1906 and
1907; Austria made many reforms
after her crushing defeat in 1866;
France became real Republic after
the disaster of 1870; Russia awoke
after her humiliation by Japan in
1904. And so 1t will inevitably be
with Germany.
First, Prussianism: the system which
declares that citizens exist only for
the purposes of the State; which I'M
der apparently democratic forms
makes the Kaiser nearly an absolute
ruler and makes his Army and his
higher officials responsible only to him.
The autocratic rule of Prussia Is only
possible on account of the steady on
ward march of the military machine.
A defeat OF Prussia In 1866 would
have swept away the whole Prussian
tyranny. Only a defeat will do so
now.
! With the Prussian system must stand
and fall-the militaristic system,
for the two are one. The essence of it
is a military class, with powers dis
tinct from and at many points supe-
rior to those of the civic authorities,
by which ii is in no way controlled.
1t Is hard to see how the political
power and personal rights of the ordi-
nary citizen can flourish in any ma
ton burdened with such a system.
And il Is harder to see how any active
movement for greater political and
personal rights can progress In the
face of such a system triumphant.
. Only defeat can undermine its power.
Another part of this Prussian sys-
TEN is the caste of civic officials. Its
great curse Is that its training tends
to make each man in 1t a tyrant on a
small scale. And the more important
members of this caste have been
born into 1t, or have been drawn in
so early, that they know no other life,
and think no other thoughts, than
those of this officialdom. There Is no
real contact with the crowd, who are
'noked upon as only pawns in the
great game played by the State. Ar
rogant anu oyerbearing as this caste
Is. even in its humblest members, q
