BERLIN, December 5th.. The cup of victory, may be drained joyfully or put away at will. But the cup of defeat has to be drunk to tha bitter end: it must be drank slowly, drop by drop. On Armistice Day victory came to us complete; if sincs then some of this glory may have vanished, it is by our own doing. But defeat has move into German life gradually; it has be comme now more powerfully felt than in the carly post-war days of pervcs ronation and of revolutionary stress,

But, surely, if there is nob a clause in it forbidding the Germans as a nation or individually to think of revenge, it is because such a demand is so evidently impossible. If the Kaiser had bad his wish, and the mailed fist of Germany was weighing upon our national life, what should we think of the Briton who did not carry in big heart the desire to wipe out the inmidt, of defeat: It is for the conquerors to ensure the accur of the fruits of victory.
