The Stratford Evening Post WITH WHICH IS INCORPORATED THE EGMONT SETTLER. THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1914. THE WAR.

That success has now come to the ' arms of the Allies is not really surj( prising. Germany hitherto, has had | the advantage of greater preparedj ness, and by sheer weight made sure lof crushing first, France and then I Russia, taking Britain at her leisure! ! Apparently there were some few thing* quite overlooked, and the bombastic ■ war party of Prussia has received i several severe lessons and even startling surprises. Many supposedly impossible tilings have happened: and others are quite likely to come to pass. For instance, Britain lias been able to land a fairly formidable fighting force on the Continent, and that without tin-, slightest molestation, because Germany's noble Navy was not taking any risks in the way of meeting the British Fleet, the sinking of unarmed trawlers and the theft of fish from the poor sailors who maimed thorn being, so far, the most gallant feat the Kaiser's Dreadnoughts have attempted, Further, Belgium's noble defence oi ' her rights against the treacherous treaty-breaking invader, completely upset every German plan, and nowgreatest impossibility of all from a Potsdamer's point oi' view—a Russian Anny is in France fighting with the Allied forces! No wonder the mad Kaiser is filled with fury. Falsehood, treachery, dishonour, crime, butchery, and ruthless bloodshed, have been the ' strong points of his evil policy, and it has utterly broken clown. When the curtain is lifted and the deluded people of real Germany learn on what lies j their master has fed them and what j his real objects were in bringing about the present awful war, they will surely rise against such rule and wipe it out for over.
