which have appeared in previous arti-

Most of them men of mark began
at the bottom, served apprenticeship
at some trade, .yorked their way
through college, and had little assist

all willing to work, and all realized

monument of accomplishment, they
must climb by their own exertions,

What these men have done, others
can do, although il must be admitted
that the rank and file can never hope

Antwerp.-OfficiaI adYices receiY-
ed here tell of further instances of
German vandalism in complete de-
struction of Termonde. Only a
church and a hospital remain in the
city, these reports say, and they are
damaged. The Germans applied the
torch to the buildings which had been
badly damaged by the bombardments
and, famed by a strong wind, the
fire swept through the town.
With sardonic humor, the Ger
mans carefully removed the towns
fire engines before burning the city
hall and took them outside of the
village. Afterward they carefully
replaced them on the ruins of the de-
strOyed communal buildings.
Advices from Brussels say that
Germans have made elaborate prep
arations to destroy the city in case of
an attack. They are reported to have
placed explosives under a number of
prominent buildings. Meanwhile, they
continue their work of surrounding
the city with earthworks, under
cover of which they have mounted a
large quantity of artillery.
