EMDEN RAIDERS ROMANCE

Captain-I.ieutenant Won Muecke,
one of the heroes of the Emden, has
written pretty love story into the
concluding chapter of his adventurous
experiences, having finally returned
to Germany and at Bremen led to the
altar his old sweetheart, Fraeulein
Carla Finke.
1t was the end of the journey
which began on November 10, 1914,
when Captain Won Muecke reluctant
ly started homeward, escaping with
other members of the crew of the
Emden when their boat was sunk in
the Indian ocean by-an Australian
battleship after the Emden had de-
stroyed more than 10000 tons of Brit
ish shipping.
Muecke and his men, who had
been sent ashore at Cocos island to
destroy the wireless station there,
were marooned when the Emden
fought her last fight. SEEKING a
schooner, they sailed via Java for
1000 miles before they reached Ara

A road running through Illinois has

Some farmers have resented the waste
and are beginning to cultivate the land

er all is it not great deal better
than letting the roadsides grow up in

Any orour road vehicles needs no
more than six-foot clearance. Fig

one-half feet to spare. Why have
the roads, then, 66 feet wide?
Some of these days our roads will
be narrowed We have not really felt
the pinch Of a real land need as yet.
When we do, then there will be a
sudden narrowing of these wide
stretches that are now weed incuba-

why not make some use Of the soil
thanking the public highways? Why
not seed it ip grass and NOW it as you
