And a half century later (1861). in the midst of the twilight which preceded our great dawn, Emanuel Geibel closed his fine poem, Germany's mission, with the prophet-, Te lines: "And German culture may bring healing to the So think we.

WEATHER DELAYS MAIL.Since postoffice employes at the parcel post windows have always told senders of packages, when it would be necessary to attach a war revenue stamp, there has been little delay in the sending of Christmas packages, due to the fact that postoffice patrons have neglected to pay the war said C.

Trains have been eight to 14 hours late in many instances since the snow fell a week ago Friday, according to Mr. Newth.

C. FLETCHER ASSUMES NEW POST Preaches First Sermon as of First M. E. Charge. Since the time of Fichte the Germans have clung with growing pride to this notion that they are an onginal, uncontaminated race.

This conception readily united with their philosophical and mystical of the state- or rather the Prussian or German state- -not as a piece of machinery, (after the American fashion, say, or the English) but as some-' thing living, almost divine. From this point of view it was only a step to the conception that they were chosen people. They were chosen to create a new type of culture, they think, and impose it even on an unwilling world. (Speaking of Belgium) The des tinies of the immortal great nations stand so high that they can not but have the right in case of need to stride over existences that can not defend themselves but support them selves shamelessly upon the rivalries of the great." Hermann Oncken (Heidelberg), Suddeutsche Monatshefte, September, 1914. is an eminent professor of modern history at Heidelberg.

"We feel ourselves to be the bearers of a superior kultur. We have no doubt that a defeat of our people would retard by centuries the devel opment of mankind. On the other hand, we hose, by the victory of our arms, to bring about a new efflorescence of humanity through the German- nature, which thus prove itself fruitful of blessings for other tions as well." Dr, Paul Conrad, Stark, in dem Herrn, 1915, n. 41. Dr.

Conrad is pasthe Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial church in Berlin. "Germany is now about to become, mentally and morally, the first nation in the world. The German nation leads in the domains of kultur, science, intelligence, morality, art and religion, the entire domain of the inuer life. The world shall once again healed by the German spirit; that shall be no empty phrase for us. All the deep things courage, patriotism, faithfulness, moral purity, conscience, the sense of duty, activity on a moral basis, inward riches, intelleet, industry, and so forth--no other nation possesses all these things in such high perfection as we do.

And because it is so, because Germany is the leader in the entire domain of intellect, characteria and soul- -and in the end judgment depends on these -because Germany is thus more and more becoming the center of the world, therefore our bors look upon it askance and with envy. Thus this war is a war of envy and jealousy of Germany's leadership. It is a fight of hounds against a noble Pastor W. Lehmann, Vom deutschen Gott, 1915. Sermon, August 9.
