WAR PROPHECY COMES TRUE
AIRPLANE ROUTE TO SWEDEN
Trelieborg and Sassnitz to Be the Ter
mini of the Proposed Line Con- 1 ;
nectmg With Germany.
» ___
The following bulletin ou Trelieborg
and Sassnitz. the termini of the pro
posed Swedish-German airplane route,
which assume* special significance In
the light of recent developments in
the diplomatic relations between Ger
many and Sweden, lias l*eeu Issued by
National Geographic society.
Between Trellelmrg. the most south
erly town in the Kingdom of Sweden,
and Sa.**nitx. a summer resort on the
northeastern shore o f the Gertnau
Island of Kugen. express steamers in
times of peace make regulur trips
a e r o « this a^rmToF’tHe'BaitiF'in four
hours. This is the chief water link in
the IM-hour express service between
Stockholm and Berlin. Neither town
would be of any Importance were it not
for the fact that they are the -tenni
of this steamer service.
Trelieborg la a quaint old town
some 10.000 inhabitants, lying 2d miles
southeast of Malmo, capital of Skane,
teh most populous province in all Swe
den. It is only IB miles from Malmo
to the Danish capital, Copenhagen.
Sassnitz is one of several popular
•reside resorts on the Island of Rugen.
the largest lnsnlnr possession of Ger
many. haring an area about equal to
that of Cape Cod. Only about 2,500
people make Sassnitz their permanent
home, but during the bathing season in
times of "peace the village is visited
annually by more than 20,000 pleasure
seeders.
The water trip from Trelieborg to
Sassnitx is 00 miles. Thus the rail-
and-steuiner distance between Stock
holm and Berlin is 415 miles.

The conversation turned on the
wonderful pungency aud isiwer of In
vective of tbe old-tiiue l.oudun cabby
us narrated by t'buries Dickena iu
“Pickwick Papers” aud by other au
thors of thut uud u subsequent time.
"A few years ago," said Dr. John H.
Oliver, in the Indianapolis News, “1
paid tuy second visit to Loudon. The
cubby and his horse had passed away.
The horse-drawn omnibus was no
more, the petrol-driven bus having
taken Its place. I told u Briton whom
I met over there that I liked to Sit on
the outside next the driver, that I
found him u most interesting charac
ter.
“ ‘So do I,' said my British acquaint
ance. ‘but he Is not at all us interesting
as his predecessor of the old fashion.
I was seated beside oue of these old-
time drivers going through a street
crowded with vehicles when a bus
coming from she opposite direction
was in collision with our bus. The
wheels of the two locked and then the
highly ornate invective between the
two drivers begun. It was the perfect
flower, yes, the full fruitage 1 thought
of profanity and abuse.
“ ‘But I « u s mistaken. There was
more and worse to couie. When the
w heels had become unlocked and we
were slowly moving away, my friend,
the driver, drew from his pocket a bit
of string and bolding it above his
bead swung It slowly to und fro.
“ T h e other driver at once Jumped
down from his bus and. whip in hand,
struck at the string-shaker. The wealth
of epithet he theu used showed that all
that hud preceded It was us mild and
kindly as the softest baby chatter. Our
driver answered not a word, but as he
drove slowly op continued the string
shaking.
.
“ ‘I wondered what there could be in
simple bit o f dumb-show to make
the other busman so fruuticully angry.
Then ray driver guve the explanation:
" 'E didn't like it, did ’e? It w as bonly
a bit of Joke, don’t y’ see. ’Is brother

Only seven years ago M. Bloch, the
.great Russian banker, wrote: “That
1 is the future of war— not lighting, but
famine; not the slaying of men. but
the bankruptcy of uatlons, aud the
breaking up of the whole social or-
ganizutiou of the uutions.”
The future of war, as written about
;by M. Bloch seven years ago, is the
present of war today, observes Ver
non Kellogg in the Atlantic. Not that
tightiug and the slaying of men are
lessened.
Only the Napoleonic and
the Thirty Years’- wars approach to
day's war in the terrible losses of hu
man life ; In'd too " great a "'drain on
the human life of uuy one or several
of the nations engaged may be the de
ciding fuctor in the war’s conclusion.
But on the whole, and as matters stand
