GERMAN TOYM.AKERS SUFFER.
Nearly Two of Business Lost-

' Because of Var.. •
Perhaps no single industry in Ger-
many has suffered so 'Mil& froni the
War as that of .toy -making. In the
Jost. peace year 'Germany's toy trade
aggregated 140,000,000 marks ($35,-
000,000), of Which more than $25,000,-
,000 Ives export and the larger Part
to Arnerida; Since the war this figure
bas dropped nearly two-thirds. ' What
is worse Still for the Germah manu-
facturers is the 'faet that other,. coun-,
tries have taken up this industry and
the Germans will find it very hard to
recover their last markets. '
In 1913 the top exports t� the
United States amounted to nearly
$10i000,000; but since then, owing. to
tlie British blockade, the' volume • of
trade has sunk to perhapsless • than
•one-fourth of this sum. ' The heard
states, Holland,. Denntark, Sweden
and Noway, have bought more toys,
but their increased trodahas failed to
make up the loss of the transatlantic
Auliness. Austria-Hungary, toe, has
taken more toys and thehome trade
has been much better. But in spite of

Net only do we sing to preclafin the
soul's triumph over pbYaicalfatigue;
over the 'caprices of an officer with a
Suburban tendency to follow the tram-
lines; over the wistful appeal. of The
Rising Sun that) dawns fel' us in 'vain
and the The. Crown and ' Anchor,
where not even the perspiring ser-
geant -major May indulge a moment's
hathourage; over blisters and draw-
ing feet', and that blighter in front
who persists in thinking he ,is the only
nian in step. Our singing i is positive
as well as negative. We sirigthe in-
toxicating rhybhm of feet, ' and the
body's 'nmaid strength arid kiduranee,
y
unwaver as, a tariefth engine. We
sing the elieiolialangaor fthat deeps
into the brain from the Hibbs' consist -
cent motion, the blood's worm surging,
I the streaming d - sunlight, the hazy,
brooding countryside. • We sing the
'gaiety of marching through pleasant
villages so intimately responsive to
our "Here we are.againf!'—the whim-
sical conceit of marching through the
•fcivrn with its attentive, crowd and•de,-
ferential traffic. 't. , ' .
'All these things we ,strig, chorus fol-

Certain songs there are, too, which

Alit:Ow them are the 'Caravan" song,
"Until,"; "When You Come Home,"
"Tommy Lad," "Somewhere a : Voice,

who, in the first .days of the war was
mainly instrumental in saving Eng-
land from .financial chaos, and was; in
consequence, made a 'peer, being, in
fat, -the. first man to have a peerage
conferred upon him for service In the
present war. •
It will he remembered that in the
first days of the war a fillancial panic
-threatened. It was essential • that
every bit ''of gold 'should be preserv-
ed, and equally essential that the • na-
tional credit should not suffer, and
that all great financial houiei and
firms should be able to tide over the
money crisis brought about by ;the
