This statement makes us wonder in what spirit of liberality a victorious German government would have imposed peace terms. At the end of the Franco-Prussian War, France pleaded in vain. Two of her fairest provinces were torn from her and an indemnity imposed which was greater relatively speaking than the one demanded today. France in 1870-71 did not devastate vast areas of German territory nor mutilate German civilian population...

Each student will be assigned definite duties in turn, to the end that he may become thoroughly acquainted with the departmental routine. At the same time opportunity will be given to observe the functioning of the department as a whole...
