-Many ladies of thb piesent fit the Fire llall. .Merric-k, on I'riday ai'ternoon, October .'), when .Mi.ss .\giU'.-i flochler, of Home Eco- nmuies ill partment, ^ave a free li'c- iiire and denioiistralion on meal siili- .siitiites. 'the topic was very iiitercsl- in.e, and .Miss OoehhM' explained every fact in ajiost definite manner.
iSppfial to The Nassau Po.<i) The roots of this war gro back to 18fiO. \t that time. Iflftmarck was the outstanding figure in Herlin. | Oermany was then an agricul-; tural nation, fiaving little nianufar- liirinc; life. She had 40.onn,ooo of pcopU. ;»;!0,(H)(i.11110,(1(111 .of propeity, ond a second rate position in Diiropr. In IRiio Kngland led Oermany in th.- piodiietion of pig Iron, .sterl, cotten :.;oods, wool'-n gond.^. the building of ¦¦thijis. (leimany la'krd gof.d coRitig toal and hematite iron ore that ace, necessary to uood steel, nnd without i sleel there was no industrial future ' for Or rmany.
Two cnurses Were open to Ilis- marek; one was to aceept nn inferior spill re of influence for the little Or- nian states, and the otber was to fo¬ ment two wars and wrest away, by iiiililary force, cr.iii trensures from ' .Austria and later the iron mines nf, Franre found In .Msace and Ix)rralnp. I StircHfling out his plan before thej I'russian King, liisiuan-k organi'/.ed ! Ciermany into a staiidimr army, and '• told Ills officers that for the time be-j ing "('K-rmanj's chief nal ional iiiflus-] try iiiiisi be war." j
No one ever accused llisiti.-irek. the^ .-.tatesiiian and diplomat, of having a| muddy mind. He made the advan- i tages of war to be seen, lying out in the aimshine. llis aiguiuent ran thus: Karmins: pays six jter cent., ninnufaeturing eight per cent, bank¬ ing ten per cent, but, viewed as an Invest menl, \v;ir should pay a thou¬ sand j)er cent. The war with Oen- iiiark made [loisslhle ibe Kiel Canal .ind acc^ess to the North i^en. and it paid far more than Risniarek's thou¬ sand per cent. The war in ISfiG witli Austria ptiid five tliousand per cent. thi'oii.uh conquered coal resources.
Then Bismarck planned his great i move—to steal the iron mines of Franre. He tells us in his .Memoirs |tlial.b(> forged one sentenei^ in the I-'reiieli l-:Hip(>r'ir's telegram, and thus threw the burden of the declaration of war upon Krance; and, returning ,, ,. _„ . ,. from bis victorious campai.ivn, he

Germany's military success went, like \\-ood alcohol, to the head of her people. The Oerman officer became the hero of mmi and women. The army took control of the Kathi rl.-ied. Ill the socjiil world the olTicer was the bader. ,\t a bamiuct. who took I)re(-e(lence and walked at the head of the company to the seat of honor at the guest table'.' .Not the states¬ man, not the uniy( rsity professor, not the artist or author, not tbe banker or manufacturer, but the .soldier, have, myself, in Cologne, ficcn a ban¬ quet held up for an hour because the coloncK bad not ari'ived. Finally a pri\ate was found to represent the army and w.-llk in with the chairnian, tn the guests' table.
Obsessed wilh the notion of mili¬ tary superiority, Germany became one vast military camp. Tbe motto lacame: "l.et I!elgiuni produce wealth
we will grab it. Let France paint
pictures, carve marble, weave silks, and produce .iewels. Oermany can steal tbem." "Let KnjLrland pile nrt irca.'iires. we will hoist a black flag on the submarine and spoil her of her .ivoods." "Anything that Germany does is right." At last, all the w(\i- pons were ready and Germany's .«oI- diets .stood like a burglar, -with his pistol, his bomb-shell and bis flre- hiaiid, before the treasiiro house of i:iii-ope, rendy to prove that "war is Ocrmany'.s chi(f national industry."
