GERMANY DEFENDED

A GERMAN'S ANSWER

Wallenstein, the great warrior of the early 17th century, once held sway over Guestrow, the ancient little town, so neat and well-to-do, which mainly lives on the rich soil around it, where wheat grows in plenty. The town is very proud of its splendid castle, where Wallen- stein once stayed for a short time. The citizens are slow of speech, and combine innate principles with spy-glasses, especially in the side-streets. With the aid of these cunningly contrived mirrors they see while sitting at their windows what is going on in the street, so that it is hard for anything to happen without the whole town Baron and Baroness Hatvany are knowing it. both famous Hungarian authors, Prince Louis Della Torre e Tasso.
