As one crosses from the left' bank of jthe Rhine and'; enters recently . oc cupied territory .the mood ol therpopu- lation becomes more sullen, their bfr- navior more aioo; ana; tneirs natrea much more pronounced. j Tne reason may be that the French are occupying that part, of the ' right bank of the Rhine that they hold near the Ruhr in real military fashihon and the occupation is much more severe than that on the left bank. The hatred of the population is di rected more especially against the French and. children are being brought up in a constant terror and undisguis ed scorn of the occupying1 forces which gives but little promise that the real ijrotherly -love -between French and Germans will be achieved with the coming generation.

The Germans are now in the same pos ition toward the French as the Bel gians were toward them and they have not failed to take advantage of the situation and a sense of humor has sen developed among the Germans as an occupied country which they total ly, lacked , when hey were, the occupy- .mg rorces .- - - i :V even , by persons well acquainted with the language is one of the most com mon . ways- in which Germans show their dislike of the French military men.
