WAR
O'llla
writ
BY HERBERT KAUFMAN
NCE more Mnrs has wrenched the pen from tlio fingers of Civ
ilization, nml, dipping ills ulnclo in tlio heart of Europe, Is
riling history witu tho BWirci-point.
The InBt great war Is raging. Reason lies mangled under the Iron
hoel. Dread thunders peal on seven seas. Death beats the heav
ens on strango pinions nnd rains weird lightning from the clouds.
Mankind, on the threshold of Humniitty's mightiest epoch, Is hurl
ed aside- from the highways to pr gross and enlightenment, ana the
universe Is forced to mark time whllo n continent spews its ancient
hates.
Wo wrought for peace these fifty years, and now we see the
genii of retort and test-tube nnd wheel nnd wire devoted to the ruin
of the splendid realms they reared.
We cannot estimate tho reckoning.
The ancient hordes of Persia nnd tho bronze-shod phalanges of
' Mncedon were pygmy armies nnd they wielded feoblo and blunted
tools compared with these grim engines of a million parts that
crush across the mother-lands like Titan Juggernauts.
A-sudden, nil the color of pnst battle pictures pales, as candle
glow Is dimmed by bursts of fla ue.
Thcro are no measurements with which to value what must come.
Wo pause In stunned bewilderment nnd grope for terms nnd phrases
fitting for the hour,
imagination is bankrupted by fact.
We shnll wear the scars or th'.s dread vnndnlagc for a hundred
years, but out of the holocaust mightier and stronger races will
emerge in tho furnace of nn appalling woe, nnd, staggering for an
Instnnt beneath the load of grief and the burden of loss, will turn
nsldo from the pathways of the Caesars and seek the roads to true
nmver.
Meanwhile, our souls nro steeped In tears.
Ood guides human destiny, and In Ills father vision rests all. We
cm net seme ihc Masto.-p".nn :or could the Children, in tho Wild
erness, nor tho martyrs of tho Coliseum, nor Jeanne d Arc.
But we, bred In tho womb of those fnr-strlcken pasts, can look
n-down on the vales of Yesterday nnd seo that Jinn falls only to rise.
Wo learn our heights by gazing upwards from tho pits to which we
topplo when we misapply our opportunities to bo superb.
Tomorrow, Europe will mount again, chastened nnd wiser, nnd
nearer to the stipor-mnnhood which evades while ambition's wear tlio
curso of Cain.
And when the long-fed blight Is cut awnr, nnd the huge wound
closed, each nation will build anew, with the full power of resolve,
freed from the threat of Invading neighbors, nnd, with tho resources
now demeaned to the ninlntcnnuco of Htnrvatlon-mnklug fleets nnd
armies, produce In safety more than wns ever reaped at porll.
Meanwhile, tho Angel of Death sits at nn adding machine and
kcops count.

flYPSV FORI7TOLD THE
GERMAN KAISER'S FALL
U
LONDON, Sept. 10. It Is recalled
at this stage of the European con
flict that a long timn ago German
nowspapors gave an account of n
supposed Interview of the Kaiser
with n gypsy, when he was a young
man. "Germany," sho told him,
"will havo n groat war In lull,
and," alio added ominously, "Ger
many will 'go under' when It Is
ruled by nn emperor who mounts
Ills horse on the wrong side. His
holr will porlsh on the scaffold."
It Is significant, If one he at all
superstitious, that the Knlser, ow
ing to his lame arm, has to mount
his horse on the off side.
