'We were allowed to see two German papers—the "Kölnische Zeitung" and the "Lokal
Würzburger Anzeiger." These papers arrived after lunch, and anything of interest in

and was rabidly and sometimes comically anti-English.'

'Zeppelin. A great rush for the windows ... This evening was marked by the arrival of a parcel of books, Tauchnitz edition, which we had been allowed to order. No doubt the publishers are glad of the chance to unload their stock of British authors, as, after the war is over, there will not be much demand for the Tauchnitz volumes.'

'In one of the thoughtful editorials to which readers of the "Irish Homestead" are accustomed, I find condensed into a single phrase the idea which I have been struggling to express. "Duty to one's race," says A.E., "is not inevitable. It is the result of education, of intellectual atmosphere, or of the social order."'
