GERMAN ADVICE BY WIRELESS.
A correspondent, writing to an exchange, says: “Ever since the war began I have collected the German wireless reports. Out of curiosity, I have jotted down from day to day the advances in yards and miles they invariably achieve. It is purely a matter of addition, for there is never anything to deduct. The most the reports ever admit is that one of their trenches had to be evacuated, but it is always retaken later on. The other day I totted up the distance the German arms had advanced according to their wireless record. I found the Germans had left the coast of France and crossed the Channel long ago, and had in fact crossed the south of England, and were well on their way to America? At the present rate of progress they should V in New York by the first of April, In the east I found that Warsaw had been lef behind some weeks ago. If any German takes the trouble to merely add up the alleged advances of his army from day to day, he must be wondering what on earth it is still pottering about tor in Belgium.
