Volume 147 — THE ARCHBISHOP'S APOLOGIA.

Reading edition

["I resent exceedingly the gross and vulgar way in which the German Emperor has been treated in the newspapers.... I have a personal memory of the Emperor very sacred to me."—The Archbishop of York.]

His Grace of York maintains the Kaiser's Merely the dupe of bad advisers, And, simply to avoid a fuss, Reluctantly made war on us.

One marvels what his Grace will say When, peradventure, some fine day, Thanks to his German friend, he hears York Minster crashing round his ears!

Foresight.

"It was stated in Dover last night that an aircraft was seen over Dungeness this evening.—Central News.

The Press Bureau, while permitting publication, cannot vouch for the accuracy of this statement."—Cardiff Evening Express.

No wonder!
