Transcriber's Notes

There is much Idiosyncratic spelling in both English and German. This has been retained, apart from the following four typos:

page 15 "sehn" amended to "sehr"; page 30 "obobserver" amended to "observer"; page 40 "int he" amended to "in the"; page 54 "Grossbittanien" amended to "Grossbrittanien".

On page 32, the typo "est giebt" has been left unchanged: it could be either "es giebt" or "erst giebt" (more likely).

Also on p. 32 "zu grob ist" should probably be "zu groß ist", but has been left unchanged, as the letter ß does not appear elsewhere in the text.

Three obvious errors in punctuation have also been amended, as follows:

page 12 "page 28." amended to "page 28:"; page 34 "darstellen will." amended to "darstellen will,"; page 41 Tanzschritt," amended to "Tanzschritt"; page 44 "G. G. A.." amended to "G. G. A.,". page 48 "in in Das" amended to "in Das".

Anchors for footnootes 31 and 36 are missing. They have been inserted in the most likely locations.
