stop eating meat and get about four

SEESFATEFUL HOUR

the Pan-German writer, Herr Elgen-

Referring to the critic, the Frankfurt

pened in this war; and answered the ,
question by saying:
THE army which enlisted at the |
beginning Of the war has failed ny |
a long way in numbers Masses OF !
men have had to be added to it and |
! trained within time far shorter than
that which even VIC contemplated.

this world because they longed for it.

what that small group, just these

IF we along with others have any
renroach to make to ourselves 1T IS
. ! that we did not carefully watch the
- doings Of such people. They were
takers whom one thought nuisance
but did not take as seriously as the
damage which they subsequently did
