ERLIN'S bloody May day riots, that
lasted through nearly a week,
were finally ended by the vigorous ef-
forts of the government. The Reds
threatened a general strike on the day
the 24 victims of the demonstration
were hurled, but the workers failed to
heed the plea of the Communists and
funeral ceremonies were not marked
by further serious disorders. The
government in Berlin asserts It has
proof that the riots were deliberately
staged by agents from Moscow and
the minister of the interior read to the
reichstag telegrams substantiating the
charge. On the other hand the Com.
munist leaders accuse the National
ists and Monarchists of provoking the
battles with the police as a means of
forcing the authorities to disband the
powerful Red organisation. The
Communist fighters were dissolved
throughout Prussian and Bavaria and
in the free city of Hamburg and all
thelr funds were confiscated.

Weakness of Profanity
It was Carlyle's contention that a
frequent resort to profanity was evi
dence, for one thing, of a weak vocab-
ulary., There were plenty of good
English words, he said, that could be
used more effectively to express strong
feeling than the trite, much-abused
“damn” or similar term. Maybe Car
iyle illustrated the idea when he re-
marked that a certain man who had
gained considerable public attention
didn't have “the brains of a rabbit”
or when he asserted that England had
a population of 30000000, “mostly
fools" or when he exclaimed on hear
ing that Margaret Fuller had
cepted the universe,” “Gad,
