Thutlow Fraser, D. D., of Owen Sound deliver a lecture on "Pan -Germanism and the Kaiser." In it the speaker showed that the Ger- man nation. but 41 years old, had envied Britain's greatness and having found out one of the great secrets of such, namely the colonization principles, had been putting forth every effort to ex- tend her territory not only in Europe - but beyond the same. The aim also is to have the German influence and methods established throughout the whole world, believing that the end justified the means such as the sword, breaking her treaties, etc. The Dr. traced quite clearly the German in. fluences brought to bear on the nations ni of the world during the past years, thus leading to the stuggles that have taken place up to the present time such as the Boer War, the struggle between Turkey and Italy, the Balkan wars and the present European war. Only one nation has corne to the help of the Ger- expenditure of $352,290. mans since they declared war and that is Turkey. The other nations of the e J.
