How Germany Went Down To Crushing Defeat -.irri i” events in the great world war have followed one upon the other with such bewilderin': swiftness recently that the various changes leading up to the present situation arc not clear in the public mind. The leading article in THE LITERARY DIGEST this week —October 26th—clarifies the war news so as to give the reader a grasp of the entire subject. That Vonly military reasons” could have compelled the groveling Teuton pleas for peace was clear enough even if a leading German newspaper had not made the confession. “Only’military reasons” in the shape of Allied victories from “Dixmude to Damascus” accounted for the reported revival of gaiety in Paris, while neutral observers told how in Berlin ‘‘everybody wants to group together just, as before great disasters.” This article treats every angle of the war and will be read with enthusiasm by the American public. It is illustrated by a large full-page colored Map with a complete index. Other articles of special importance in the Oct. 26th “Digest” are: Passing Sentence on the Kaiser and His People A Review by the American and European Press of Germany’s Pleas for Peace More U-Boat Savagery War and the New Congress France’s Storied Fields The Voice of British Labor (Prepared by the U.S. Bureau of Education) Through Rapine to Peace Germany’s Colonial Crimes Foch as the Huns See Him Europe Admiring Yankee Teeth Peach Stones for Gas-Masks • Seeing Through Brick Walls Ironing Out Iron How Museums Help Win the War Literary Prophets Who Foresaw Our Day Are Your Phonograph Records Slacking?
