TWO UNFORGIVABLE THING G. Two things will ne\er be forgiven Germany, to long as humanity. retains \ shed of sentiment. either for beauty or for honour. One is the Serinan Cha:!--.ellor's airy disrais al of vbe uv-auy guaranteeing the -neutrality of Bsi&iusi as "just n scrap of paper.'''-• Tlie o.her is the destruction of Lou vain.'Bally jdail." : . .. -• ' HELP rOB BELGIUM. ; Until now the burden of the war, in death,' in financial and''iiu-birver suffering,- - lias - -f allc-nv- .ffisinly. on : jie shoulders of. Belgium, the weakest, of ;lie"" AHfe's: -The-loan of -ten- ffliiKoa pounds by the -■British .Government is nothing more than our .duty, and. indeed, is less than our duty. A fund is being raised to alleviate in some measure "the distress caused by the "march of ruin," and it would u-ii ;o too much for Great Britain to eouaibute a million to that fund out of tic national treasury as a free gift 1 r.;.n one people to the other. —"E^-prec?.'' GERMANS' ONLY HOPE Ol' BE TAPS. If General Joffre is abie to carry o.it that franking attack to the suetessiul point which is indicated by the cabla messages it will need the moat brilliant generalship on the. .vide of ihe Germans to extricate f 10:11 disaster even the remaining section of their front that has not had the German flank driven in upon it. As long as the Allied forces' front can hold the Germans in position, while the process of driving in the German flank id carried out, the Allies are safe. The o?>fy hope of escape for the Germans is to break through the front of the Allies in the centre of their line. That it eeoms they have repeatedly tried to do—and have always failed to accomplish.— "Daily Telegraph." ■ * ■
