The mad preparations for war which have been going on for ssereral years could result in, nothing, ase but a clash of alms,,, atnd _it is to be hoped that wbeta the awful: des tructioa is aver we may. at least start out on another hundred years of peace. The Emperor of Germany, =tette would think, did not expect •:uch. as array of nations against him, or he would have hesitated before plung- •ing the whale;of Europe into war, en - less perchance he believes l e•. can :afire: the whole buruch. If he does he will go some Whatever the ultimate result maybe however there is one thing sure; the lass on both sides will be very heavy. The fighting that has already been • done has not been in the Kaiser's fa- -vor.. but these have been, only pre- iiminan skirmishes and the real bat- etle,s may not take place; far a few imys, as it takes sometime; to mobil- ize seversl hundred thousand men. The navies up to the ,present time have been moire concerned With_ the protection. of commerce, than in meeties- in a great engagement, and a -real ;naves battle may also be some days off but when it does take place a. battle the like of which the world :has ,never before seen, may be rooked Lor That the union of the various parts al the British Empire is not a myth :cal thing hasbeen fully demonstrated ':.by the offers of metal and money and _goods from every part of the Empire -ton the Motherland in this time of stress The Dominions beyond the Seas are preparing to take an act - part in the war, and Canada is not behiad in the game. • One of the notable features: in the war is the burial of all io:cal troubles. a.nd disputes. In Ireland the Nation- alist and the Ulstermen have fargoat- ten the quarrel of Home Rule, and will fight side by side for the Empire The old feud between Lord Charles .Beresford and Winston Churchill has been. healed. Premier Asquith and Leader Bonar Law, whohave not been on speaking terms, ride in the same ..:carriage to the War Office. Evetsthe 'suffragettes have put out their tor- ches and in Canada we are no longer Grit and Tory, but Canadians and British subjects. TELL ALL THE GOOD Make a ha.bit of telling all the good -things you hear, If you have a neigh bar who. is inclined to be blue, tell him something kind that someone has said of him. Yes, you can, think of something, for na one is all bac]; and if you say kind things of your neigh- bor to others, they'll say kind things l f him too. Don't you remember how good you felt when some friend talo you a kind remark he had heard some ane make about you and how, deep down in your heart, you thank- ed the the one who] told you? How -m. uch brighter everything looked. And you had so reach more courage to take tvp the burden; and to this day your heart beats quicker •vhen you think of it, Now, others are just like you. Forget all the bad things you hear said of a mart, but if you something good said,go at once anti tell him. Try this plan one month and see if you don't hear many nice things that have been said of ,von `Ae ye sow so also, shall ye reap," The teaching profession has always been. looked upon to a less or greater xtent as not permanent, Ance ;t is :cot becomingg. .more so, The lemand for such a -number of teachers indie- ates that hundreds of schools will coin - mance the term after vacation, which is really the beginning of the school year with new teachers.

LONDON,Aug. II, — A terrific battle is believed to have been in progress during the day between the German and French forces near Nett Breisaeh for the control of Alsace Lorraine, Neu Breisaeh is strongly fortified, and it is said thst a divi- sion et the second German army has been concentratedthere, to check the advance of the French, who have already swept through Ferny, Muhlhausen, Altkirch and Colmar, French reinforcements are . re- ported to be rushing through the pass east of Belfort, in an effort to prevent a force of 40,000 Austrians from cutting the French line of ad- vance between Altkireh and Muhl- hausen, The Austrians, it is said, are in force near Basle, Switzer- land. The Germans, it is reported, are hurrying reinforcements to Neu Breisaeh from Strassburg. The French War OiBee reports Lan important engagement pending between the French and German troops in Lorraine, below Saarbiy}•g: It is believed tit' Frenchartillery is supporting an. -attacking column engaging Germans coming on from S'aarburg, - Muhlhausen, Ferny and Colmar all ; re now in the possession of the French troops. Alsace is inflamed against the Germans, whose army is now concentrating on the 'front of Gen. Joffre, the French commander. Neu Brei; ash, east of Colmar, and Strassburg, on its north, 'are the centre of the- C3erman advance. The German army of :he lower Rhine, meanwhile, is proceeding against the French, whose lines .extend across to the Rhine along the Swiss border. The French cavalry patrol has been driven from the border town of Longuyon, in the department o1 the Meurthe ct Moselle by German Horse,- supported .by infantry and artillery. After wresting, in desperate en- counters,, the passes of Bonhomme and Sainte Marie, on the frontier be- low Muhlhausen, from the German troops, the French now oecepy the village of Sainte Marie, Aux Mines. Theline. fighting continues along the. Spread out in fan -fashion, the Frencli army in Alsace, led by Gen. Joffre is moving from the Jura Mt,untains on the ' Swiss border through all of Alsace, to. a point east of Colmar, now held by the French. This f.s the second mobili- zation centre of the French army which has its headquarters at Lan- gris. The Germans, according to the War Office report, after making their first stand. at Altkirch, retired rapidly and it was not until Colmar was reached that Gen. Joffre's men encountered any serious opposition. Muhlhausen fell without any long continued fighting. At Colmar there was considerable sharp fighting, wherein the French are reported to ha.e beaten back the Germans in a succession of brilliant bayonet charges. Many hand-to- hand encounters took place i'n this battle. • The German forces are now said to be. trying ';.o dam the Seille river, which forms part of the boun- dary of Lorraine, • being a tributary of the Mosel. This move is said to b • intended to prevent 'the French from assauling Metz. German troops are said to be moving on Prance by way of Lux- emburg, uxemburg, the main column being re- ported at 'Esch. Eight • Austrian regiments are said to have violated the neutrality of Switzerland, according to a Basle report, and they are now said to be on the Alsace border, preparing to attack the French in the rear in Al- sace. These are said to be the ehoice of the Austrian Tyrol sol- diery, hardy mountaineers capable of giving vigorous battle to the French. The Foreign Office is said to have demanded from • the Austrian Ambassador a declaration regarding the intentions of Austria. At the capture of Muhlhausen, the French seized a big aeroplane factory, in which they found a num- ber of machines intended 1trr the German army. As they are near completion, they will be finished and then confiscated. Both the French and German aer- ial force, in the fighting along the ridges of the Vosges Mountain range, have been most active. Into upper Alsace yesterday came detachments of the famous .Tunes, or native troops from the French colony of Algeria, They are a bold and well-trained body of fighting men, British Fleet Moving To Tsingtatu.
