Turning (o Germany, and starting from the fact that Germany is sur rounded on three and one-half sldeH by land, we perceive that she has al ways had open frontiers and muiiy enemies. TlirouKhotit she has been the fighting ground of Kurope. She built her military power In Prussia, bee ii vine thai was thu only power which could evolve a protecting cen tral government, lu Kngland deinoc- racy won at an early dale and iiiude Knxland practically a republic, be- cause Hie king had no standing Militarism and democracy cannot live in the same nation at the same lime, Because the Knglish peo !'' n-fused lo serve in Hie kind's I army, King ( Maries Uiht ti Ih Head lu Iti llt.

When freedom was finally crushed by the forced of militarism and autocracy, owr two millions of German came to America. Losing her democratic blood, Germany lot her hope of sal- at ion In that general Then t ame a united Gertiuny, hut It was !a unity of blood and Iron under IBs- mark.
