Campbell for driving too fast over intersections in Port Hope.

But the young and middle-aged men are at work in the factories, and working with a un- animity of purpose that dndicates something more at stake tham a national hope of prosperity. Shadow of War Germany, disarmed by the Ver- caillas Treaty, has a police force that must jwmpress even the most casual with a sense of imperial pol- fey. It was no uncommon thing, Dr. Rundle pointed out, to find groups of four and five policemen on traffic duty at intersections mot only of the greater cities but thro- out the country. These policemen. armed with military swords and ar- revolvers, uniformed almost pre- cisely similar to the resistless tide that broke upon and overwhelmed the greater part of Belgium in Au- gust, 1914, represent something more, Dr. Rundle inferred, than that arderliness and rezulation for which Germany has heen so long famous. Dr. Rundle found Germany not anly busy but building. Construe- tion work fis xoing om everywhere.
