THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 1s.
The Russian fleet of Anatolis
Some lead upon the Goeben spills,
Sven Hedn says that melanchois
Is least of all the kaiser's ills.
Says Russis's Empress, "Pole and Finn
And Jew are Russians till we win"
Whene'er the Kaiser looms in sight
The Germans multiply their fire.
They'll get to Englsnd's shore by night-
feet. they say, they won't require.
To Tommy Atkins it's a grief
That he must eat Chicago beef.
Some twenty thousand refugees
Are daily pouring into Brussels.
They'll either stsrve to death or freeze
Unless J. Rockefeller hustles.
The English won't export their tea,
Lest il should strengthen Germany.
Canadians are not allowed
To read New York's pro.Germsn papers;
And Egypt's suzerain has vowed
He's finished cutting English cspers.

On Saturday the Stock Exchange
Will open-a propitious omen.
The Portuguese at last arrange
To help the Allies lick their foemen;
And Harvard's gift to those that strive

Won Hindenburg has come a cropper
And Wilhelm, lacking metal, takes
From locomotives brass and copper.

Must fall before December 10.

OF every German cannon cleans.

And hundreds die beneath their FIRE

FOLLOWING THE WAR I'm RHYME AND PICTURE

And dead are scattered far and near.
The Kaiser prays that Heavens hand
May still uphold the Fatherland.

But Decker says it was a blamed
Unfrendly way to go about it.

II Russian Jews would dodge a shock
