The majority are inclined to agree

thing any of the writer's offer

assert ignorance of the nature Of tho

One of the most eminent Of Mr.
Watts's correspondents is one of the
most vlrulent. This is Franz Defrep-

his English vocabulary is not extern
slve enough to express his indiena-
ton at the ''impertinence" of asking

liar, blockhead or coward" He
has at least the merit Of being no
gutter. He declares that England
was just as guilty as Germany, but
that she, being the victor, is able to
conceal her guilt. In any case, "the
great majority Of the charges against
the German army in Belgium were
either immense exaggerations or
PLAIN lies" Even 80, Defrepgcr

schoolboy, you arc mistaken" Quite

OFTEN teaches the wrong lesson, Ger

German mind.
Wilhelm Wundt, Of Leipzig, cmi-
ncnt az a psychologist, adds to our
acquaintance with German psy-
GEOLOGY by declaring that his con-
victions are unchanged and that the
dissemination Of "the enormous lies
OF the Northclffe press" proves "the
low educational status of American
