When, in the early days of June
1913, men once more fought bend t

Thierry and the thunder of the guns
stirred ancient echoes in the crumb-
ling ruins of the castle history was but
repeating itself. The river valleys,
converging on the plain of Paris and
finding there a barrier of hills, have
ever turned that basin into the final
battlefield of an invasion with the
capital as the goal. That is why

enemies who are faithless?"

'flat's all,
A writer in the Arkansas Gazette
says of the "man of vagaries":
His name is - or was - Alfred
Harmsworth; late Sir Alfred, and since
1905, Lord Nortcliile, First Baron of
the Isle of Thatief. In one Year from
being the most hated man in the Em-
pire, Lord Northcliffe has become the
most thanked;, and the patriotic citi-
zens who burned his papers publicly

turbing the even tenor of business,
scaring the "ignorant public," and ir-
ritating the "wise." No matter what
part of the world he happened to be
in, some "Harmsworth vagary" was
sure to be given wing.
For instance: Out in Winnipeg, Can-
ada, September 8, 1909, he sent forth
a most Warning interview. The man
actually declared that Great Britain's
dear friend, Germany, was preparing
for nothing short of war against her.
