Surprise for Germans, What is really incredible is that- military writers both in the lead- ing papera of Austria and Ger- navy should exhibit such woeful ignorance regarding the military training and fighting capacity of the British troope, whether they belong to the United Kingdom, the Colonies or to fadis. There is good reason for saying that the Germans, who have by this time had much actual experience of both the British and the Indiar Loops, take a very different view of their fighting qualities and. military training than is given to them in the contemptuous re- ferences we have quoted, and it aill be no empty boast to say that by the time the end of the war is reached the people of Germany and Austria will be much more greatly impressed with the mili- tery power of the British Empire than they aro to-day. Our Great Empire, under the supreme test of the pressure of war, has proved its unity and strength in a man nor which has been a revelation to the world and a disagreeable surprise to the military experts: and diplomats of Germany, who, contrary to their expectations, see all classes, all races, all States, Principalities, Dominions and Powers throughout the British Empire united in resolve and in- effort to uphold our national honour and to defeat the aggre88- ive aims and objects of Prussian militariem which, upon the out- break of the war, the German Preas to longer attempted to conceal.

Why dermany Hates England, From many qu rlere it is be- coming more and more evident that Germany's batred of Eng- land and everything English is of

a mest acrimoniona natore. Pre vions to the war, it was, of course, well known that the Germans look- ed upon the English as their serious rivals in commerce and as the Telephone No. 1683.pation that, more than any other, prevented them from attaining the expansion they so earnestly longed for England, as a matter of fact, no more placed any kind of abstacle, direct or indirect, in the path of German colonial expansion, than she placed in the path of any other nation. What caused the Germana chagrin was simply that England had for many generatione, before the Present mashroom German Em- pire was realised, built up with anexampled success in the world's history an Overgaa Empire of vast proportions. Germany, growing great in wealth and in soientific achievement, was embittered by her compara tively amall success as a coloniser and apprehensive of the fact that the vast numbers of German. immigrants to Anglo-Saxon landa were gradually absorbed by those countries.
