Prussian Guard Iona Famous.

The history of the Prussian Guard,
cream Of Germany's fighting men,
which was smashed by the headlong
attack of American troops at the Sec
ond Battle Of the Marne, dates back
to the latter part Of the Seventeenth
Century, when men believed in the
divine rights Of kings, and the troops
Of the guard could be depended on to
protect the sacred body Of their sov
ereign when all other supporters fell
away.
The Prussian Guard was once a
company of archers, known as the
Trabant Guards. It was transformed
into a real fighting force by Frederick
William I. Drill with him was a ruling
passion and he lavished much atten-
ton on his guard; securing Europe for
giants, as no nan under six feet In
height could enter his pet regiment.
This requirement was abolished by
Frederick the Great, who cared only
for fighting ability. The stirring ex-
ample Of Napoleon's Imperial Guard
caused the Prussian organization to be
Increased In size, and It now comprises
a complete army corps. Into Its ranks
60 the cream Of each years class OF
Prussian recruits.

DAzED BY HUN ATROCITIES
Emotional Faculties Of Afflicted Bel
gians Probably ParaIyzed by the
Horrors They Had Witnessed.

Mr.. Brand Whitlock, former Ameri-
can minister to Belgium, has been
talking about the horror Of Louvain in
the London Daily Telegraph:
II was struck by the lack of pas
sion displayed by all those who had
SO terribly suffered. I seldom heard
any Of them express hatred Of the
Germans or any desire for revenge.
"None Of them, as far as I could
learn OF observe, even acted in the
tragic manner There were no he
roles and no histrionics; they did
not even demean themselves as do peo-
pie in the cinema or the romantic nov.
els. .
"In moments of great danger, OF
great strain and tragedy. people are
simple and natural; they do not act
in the theatrical sense of the word"
To say that q play could be acted
without gesture or other expression
Of what we feel is absurd. Nor
would, I think, history support Mr..
Brand Whitlock's inference, whatever
may have been the story of unhappy
Belgium.
When Nine. du Barry died upon
the scaffold in Paris, her shrieks de-
lighted the knitting women. The Duo
de GuiSe ran wildly from his assas-
sins to throw himself at the feet of
Henry Of France. Pitt wept for his
country's misfortunes--the family Of
the Inflated Louis XVI did not
their lamentations all night when they
heard that he vas to be ~guillotined at
dawn.
The choler of Judge Jeffreys found
expression in the rawlings and rantings
Of a mailman. Boabdil wept when he
was driven from Granada. Henry VIII
could swear like a Observation-Disclosures
Howard shrieked at Hampton court,
and the superstitious hear her shrieks
to this day.
In my view, the unhappy Belgians
were dazed by the very horror Of the
circumstance. The atrocities commit
ted by the Hun were too awful. Shall
we wonder If the emotional faculties
were paralyzed?-London Dispatch.
