IU WALTER KALEIGH, t\M well-known Oxford scholar, re- cently published a book with the attractive title, "The Soul of England," and in It he In- cluded a little story which has just been used by Mr. H. A. L. Fisher, British Minister of Education, to show that we are fighting to defend a great civilization: "A month before war broke out there was a German student in Ox- ford who attended a picture palace. It was crowded with young English- men, members of the university. Sud- denly the Kaiser appeared on the film, and a_ young Englishman, who was sitting behind the German made en insulting observation, whereupon the young German turned round and boxed the Englishman's ears. Upon that the whole theatre burst out into applause. The young Englishmen felt that this young German had been un- fairly treated, that his Kaiser had beeii abused in his presence in rath- er an ungentlemanly manner. .\ Ger- man came to a friend of mine â€" his old tutor â€" afterwards and said: 'Vou are a wonderful people." He told the story, and said: 'Such chivalry as Ihat would have been quite Inconipiehons- Ible in my country." Well, that is really our civiliz»Uion. Tlial litlb- Btoiy gives you Ihe whole of our civi- lization. That chivalry is quite ap- parent in the private soldier and iu the oBBcer. It is apparent lliroiiKli the whole of English society, and I feel that HO long as that spirit remains among us we caa hold our heads high among the nations of the earth." In strlkinn contra.st lo this is a dramatic incident loUl by a sergeant of some recent liMlilinj; which brings out Btrongly the difference between the Urilon and Ihe tlerman: "1 was lyinn wounded in a shallow trench, when I saw a tierman ap- proach an English lad who was lying on the ))arai>Pt, txidly hit on the leg. lie was iinatde lo move, but the Ger- man (lelilierately bayonetted him Ihroiigli the body as he lay- a das- tardly act. At llial iiiomeiit I noticed our young sergeant-major, who was standini; some yards away from the two. 1 shall never forget his expres- sion; he was convulsed willi horror and loathing, lie did not attempt to shoot or stab I bo enemy, but in a biir.st of iinKOvernable rage disdain- fully droiipeil his rifle and leapt at tlie Hun sjirang at liim like a bull- dot;, liefore the foemau bad time to realize wluil had happened, the young Knglisbiiian liad liiiii by I be throat and literally choked the life out of liiiu and then IIuiik the body away. In my mind's eye even now 1 can see the dead German lying beside his poor victim, and In all my twenty nioiitlis al the front never did I wit- ness an incident so terrible, so dra- matic, .mil yet so splendid."
