and returned shortly. and. picking up the receiver, said-"We will do our best for two days, until other arrangements can be made. When shall we expect His Majesty?"
 Then it was that I realized the significance of the converse ton. The Count concluded the conversation. and. turning to me, said-'I am plac- ed in a difficult position. The Kaiser has crossed the Dutch frontier, and l am requested by the government to provide hospitality for him. He has fled from the defeated German Army, and is taking refuge in Hol- land for the time being"
 There was little rest for anyone in the Castle that night, since the Kaiser who was, according to the telephone message, to have been &C., companied by only two gentlemen. was expected to arrive the next morning. Those of the patients suf- fering from influenza, who were ap;e to crawl, were urged to assist in the preparations for the distinguished guest, and a suite of three rooms overlooking the n7oat which sur rounds the house was made ready, and extra provisions befitting to the Kaiser were ordered to be delivered immediately.
 Imagine their surprise when at eight o'clock the next morning the Kaiser and General von Falkenhayn arrived, and the General inforne d the Count that the kaiser's Imperial train would reach Maasbergen Sta tion that morning, bringing the oth- CT members of the suite. This news caused the Count some considera ble surprise.
 How many gentlemen are there in the suite?" he asked. It was the Kaiser who replied. "Oh, there are quite a, few" he said, dis1nissing the matter lightly, though the subject were one of complete indifference to him. The Count did not pursue the inquiry, but proceeded to introduce his family to the guest.
 During this proceeding was care full to note the bearing and general appearance of the Kaiser whom I was gazing at for the first tirne in my life. He was not at all like the pie lures which I had seen of him. AL though wearing a PrussIan Generals uniform and long grey cloak, which he flung over hiss houlder, displaying on the breast of the grey tunic many decora tions, his bearing was far from impressive. He seemed to me to be shrunksn, old, nerve shattered man. His face was deathly pale, his mouth twitched, and his eyes were bloodshot and heavy.
 No Will Power
 His whole appearance was entire Iy the opposite from that of an al1- conQuering War Lord, whose pie ture had many times appeared in the newspapers. At times his voice

 It is now fully nine months since Wilhelm HohenzolIern fled from his country, and took refuge at the Cas- tie at Amerongen, and from that time I have seen him daily. I know who have been his visitors, and have had innuInerable opportunities of speak ing to him, and of overhearing his conversations with others. In the revelations which I shall make it is my intention to deal honestly and faithfully with facts concerning the Eix-Kaiser's life during the time that he has been the uninvited guest of Count Bentinck.
 did not meet the Kaiser until he came to Amerongen. The story of his flight after the defeat of the German army was described to me by Major HirschIeid, who was one of the officers to accompany the ex- Kaiser on his flight from Spa.
 When the ex-Kaiser learned dur ing his last stay at Great Headquar- ters at Spa that all hope of victory had gone" said the Major, that there was nothing but utter defeat for Germany, and that the extremists in the Reichstag were demanding his abdication, he became very excited, a mood which was quickly followed by abject depression. There was a stormy scene between him and the army leaders when Hindenburg in sisted at first upon his abdication. This the Kaiser at first refused to consider, declaring that he would re- turn 10 Berlin. but Eiindenburg even rually subdued his Royal master, and half an hour later, having partaken If a hurried luncheon, the Kaiser, accompanied by four of us, left the aotel in the Royal motor car bound TOT Amerongen. The Kaiser travel ed part of the journey in the Royal rain but when it was shot at by some rebellious soldiers he refused
 0 remain in it any longer, and trav- lied the rest of the distance in a lotor car"
 Such was the statement made to by Major Hirsch1eid.

even if 1t could. of what use would the money be if no one were working to produce the things money can buy? Work, production. distribution of the articles of livelihood, these things are better than money, because they are the things which give money it's value.
 In other European countrIes the same condition prey&ils-no work. Plenty of talk, many plans of reconstruction-bu no work. Jobless men, smokeless chiu4neys, bTc;,UIcss homes - is there anyIh-n- more oesolate than the me@u4ng of that phrase, mo work?
 The people are looking to their leaders for some magic formula which shall lead them out of the-r distress. but there is no such naSie fOl.aula; the only power gI.,t VII. Iu it is Work. II we are sJ nave bread, the far l. CT mus, yI0T, he mill must g. ind, the oven mus. bake. There is no other way O produce bread it means Work.
 Now, fortunately for us, con di.icns in -h.s coun ry are so much better than in Europe hat there is almost no comparison. Here we have work in plenty. Jobs are abundant. No matter what may be said to the con- 5 are prices. There ought to be an increase in wages or 8, de- crease in living costs-that goes without saying.
 But even when we have said the worst we can about our con diLion here, the great fact re- mains: We have Work. We are earning wages. It may take most or all of the wages to live, but We are living. Food may be high, but there is food, and money with which to buy it, and work in plenty by which to earn the money.
 Do we appreciate this very fortunate difference between ourselves and those nations
 
 war. Sometimes it seems not This is not a complaint against the just desire of our people that the ratio of wages to profits be more equitable. A just and gen. erous wage is one of the essen tia1s of economic prosperity, and he is short-sighted who does not sec it.
 But there is a mighty GItrer- ence between readjustment of conditions on the basis of fair ness and that spirit of dissension and destruction which would go on ticking things over until there is nothing left to adjust.
 Some of our Am erican people seem sometimes to lose sight of the fact that the prosperity which is theirs just now-great prosperity in comparison with the plight of the people overseas -is net a condition like the sea- sons which will continue to abide with us no matter what We do.
 Let us learn at once that 1t is within our power to throw away and destroy this condition. At the present moment there is a srtange sensitiveness in these matters all over the globe. Even in Russia, where the very pur- pose of the new regime was to establish an industrial democ- racy. there is a desolating lack of work and a consequent deep distress. When men cease to re- spect the job. when they begin to deal high with work, the soul seems to go out of industry and the blessing van ishes.
 It is by no means the part of wisdom to assume that our coun- try has secured such industrial mom entum that it will continue to go forward regardless of what we do. It will go forward only as we help it Prosperity will desert the people that flout it.
