GERMANY'S LOST COLONIES

The

Face of

DARING

• Is there some common denominator in the faces of these women who perform epic flights regardless of personal danger?

ȚEAN BATTEN, Amy Molli- son, Beryl Markham, Amelia' Earhart-four women whose flights have matchod the bravest deeds of men.

Look at their faces.

All four have high foreheals, wide- ly spaced eyes, prominent mouths and strong, china.

All four are greatly alike in the pat- terna formed by their lines, especially in the lower half of the face.

Look first at the tip of each nose, and notice how it tends to overhang the upper lip. Then follow back the wings of the nose, observing in all their ex- pressed breadth, and from here follow the curve which runs round the mouth. This curve contributes to the determined expression of the chin.

It is fixed by the formation of the Jaw and the action of the facial muscles.

The central cause of the similarity of expression in all four faces is the pro- minence of the jaws along the line of. the teeth. On this is developed a well- sci and clear-cut mouth, in which the length of the lips emphasises their straightness. Vigour of expression is accentuated by the relatively hollow ap- pearance of the flesh round the mouth; the sharp decisive boundary between up- per lip and cheek; the depressions between lower lip and chin, and between 'upper lip and the tip of the nose.

All this construction, reflects the characteristics of courage and endurance, just as in the pattern of the forehead and eyes there is evidence of clear judgment and presence of mind.

But though ali are so eminently endowed with these general characteris- tles, each is a very distinct personality, differing in many ways from each of the others.

Fears that the delicate question of the return of the former Ger- man Colonies might be thrust into the forefront at a time when there are more vital matters demanding attention appear to be set at rest by the reported triumph of Ger- man conservative opinion anxious not to embitter relations with the Britain at this stage. On matter ralsel, Germany's feelings are quite understandable; her cake differs from that of the Italians, who, following the con- quest of Ethiopia, deigned to add that their colonial aspirations were satisfied. The lands which Germany wants were once her own. In considering this matter, it will probably be conceded that if any of the Allies, as a result of the Great War, were bereft of a substantial part of their overseas

that she will not be a satisfied member of the society of nations until her colonial aspirations have been satisfied. Dr. Karl von Alshagen, a noted German journ- alist, recently stated in a speech in England that the idea that Germany would go to war to ro- gain her Colonlea was preposter- outs, Saying that Germany would never admit that when she was compelled to hand over her Colonies on the signing of the. Peace Treaty, she gave any right of possession in favour of the Allies, this commentator express- ed the hope that "cammon-sense and goodwill" would prevail in dealing with this question. One' aspect of the matter which has been put forward is that the re- lump of the Colonies at this junc- ture, so far from buying pence and contentment, might merely whet Germany's appetite for more concessions. There is, also, a psychological factor to be taken into account, this being the Nazi contempt for weakness, concern- ing which a London commentator has hazarded the view that hasty compliance with the German de trolled, but nevertheless warm, hature.
