GERMANY DRIVES HER WEDGE.

Germany has succeeded in dong
what she set out to do long before
the armistice and constantly ever
since, which is to drive a wedge b.
tween the allies and cause them to
split over any question whatever az
fecting her relations with them III
the issues of the war. That fact is
beside the question of which one
Great Britain or Francis entitled
to American sympathy in the ever
ance Of the entente cordiale. Had
she been as successful during the war
as she is now she would have won
and the allies would have been de-
feated in the field.
Preparations constituted the most
fruitful subject for the accomplish
ment Of the split and the Germans
knew it. They have played their
cards for the identical purpose that
has been accomplished. Through
Diplomatic avenues and propaganda
they have told the world that they
were unable to pay; that they were
on the brink of economic ruin and
~bolshevism. Their appeals found
sympathetic listeners in Great Brit
ain, which desires their TRACE. but
none in France, which needs the
promised reparation payments, the
need being desperate.
Stripping the subject OF camou-
fage and propaganda, no fair mind
can help reverting back to what the
Germans did in 1870. They cap
tured Paris and levied an indemnity
of n billion dollars. They agreed
TO no moratorium. They brooked no
evasion. They remained right in
Paris and occupied 1t until they mad
accomplished the annexation OF two
of Frances richest provinces and
until every dollar of their self-de-
termined demand had been paid in
cash.
What the American people and the
world want is a final settlement Of
the trouble between France and Ger
MANY, which is a world trouble. The
difference of opinion is over whether
il shall be the British or the french
plan of settlement. If the n Is
merely superficial while the other
is fundamental, thinking persoLs will
be inclined to give consideration to
the latter.
The great obstacle of todav in the
way Of arrival at a fair appraisal OF
the international situation is that of
propaganda. The United States is
deluged with British propaganda d.
rected against the French. While
the French may be militaristic and
revengeful against their ancient foes,
the Germans, it cannot be said that
they are carrying on a campaign OF
publicity in this country through the
newspapers, their efforts having been
confined to the recent speechmaking
tour of ex-Premier ~Clemenceau. Bnt
the British variety may be seen in
dispatches, headlines and editorial
expressions of the majority OF Amer
lean dailies. France was the real suf-
ferer in the war. 1t was the battle
ground and against it the hatred of
Germany was unloosed. Belgium
suffered simply by being in the way
of the Teutonic troops in their march
against the country hated for cen
turtles.
France has not been paid and Ger
many is trying every device known
to the most subtle of minds to evade
payment. Its success in driving the
wedge makes 1t appear like it may
win. The question is as to whether
or not such a settlement will be fun
damental, and therefore permanent
and just.

about 2,50O,000 acres of the widest

YOUNG FRENCH GIRLS
SEE WHILE BLINDFOLDED
Remarkable Feat Performed in
Presence of Newspaper Men.

| PariS.-Three little school girls,
daughters of chair manufacturer at
Pau, apparently have demonstrated
their ability to see without their eyes.
Even when carefully blindfolded they
are able to read print, the face Of
cards and other matter.
| The faculty of medicine at Bor-
deaux is investigating with a series
of tests. The preliminary announce
ment made by this body is that the
explanation probably will be found to
be that the blndfolding permits peep
| ing.
| But in one experiment a well-known
journal whose staff was put on the
phenomenon took extreme precautions
to prevent any taking. Two cup-shaped
leaden molds were placed over the
eyes and held in place by a broad
bandage, tightly applied. An open
book then was placed in rack hori-
zontal with the eyes, while the head
was held motionless to preclude any
possible vision above or below the
bandage. A whole page was read Inn
mediately by the eldest girl without an
error
The youngest girls talent also is
highly developed, for with similar lay
ers of paper and bandage attached to
her forehead by means of mucilage,
thus preventing any glancing upward
under the bandage, she threaded a
needle which had been placed in the
cork of a bottle held several inches
above her head
The girls are Yvonne, Andree and
Jeanne SimOnin, thirteen, fourteen and
sixteen years old. They are normal
French girls, playing the usual child
hood games, fond also of cycling and
swimming, and accustomed to help
around their home There is not the
slightest reason to believe them freaks.
Their relatives, as well as many
doctors who have been studying the
case, predict the day when every one
may attain such state of mental and
optical concentration that people need
no longer rely upon their eyes.

FISH THAT CAN CLIMB TREES
Nature Has Endowed the CODY With
More Than Its Share Of Physical
Requirements.

The goby Is fish that lives mainly
In warm countries. 1t often crawls
out of the water in large numbers, and
skips and plays on shore like lively
kitten. In the countries where these
wonderful fish are found the shores in
many places are covered with low
mangrOve trees, and up these the goby
climbs in search of food.
These fish have developed out Of
their fore fins what look like arms,
with hands with webbed fingers, which
help them to get over the ground, and
out of their hind fins kind of sucker
or sucking disk, by means of which
they can cling closely to the bark Of
tree.
The goby is sometimes called q
"mudskipper," because 1t goes skip
ping along over the wet sands and
mud, even skipping with great speed
over the surface of the water" says
one writer. "It chases It's insect prey
among rocks, leaves and weeds, and
out of the water is as agile as a
lizard"
The eyes are raised on stalks so
that the creature can look in all d.
rections without turning the head.
Gobies have been timed to stay from
three to six hours out Of water.
