Prinz Eitel Friedrich

By Atsocintc6 prc.s

Newport News. Va, March 2a-The
German auxiliary cruiser PrinZ Eitel
Friedrich still lay at her dock TODAY.
apparently no more prepared to make
a dash for sea than at any other time
during the last week, but the activities
all around her convinced local officials
that some definite step soon would he
taken either to intern the raider or
send her out.
The elusive report, current in army
and navy circles that Commander
Thierrichens was ready to go but
awaited assurances that the United
states would protect him within the
three mile limit from the hostile cruis-
ers which have been blocking ever,
lane out past the Virginia Canes

Other than two torpedoboats and
one submarine daylight disclosed NO
other American ships in these waters
although battleships were reported
throughout the night gathering to
protect American neutrality.
The time limit of the EfteI,s stav
was still an official secret but there
was a well-defined report that II ex-
pires within the next As hours. One
report that the Eitel will be towed to
New York within the three-nile limit
IS not taken seriously by officials. who
believe her draft, even though now
light, would not permit her to nayi-
gate so close to the shores.

Isn't An Unusual Bargain
Certainly 1 shall not urge the pas
sage of this measure until after the
Planning Commission has had a
chance to look it over" said Mr.. Tay-
lor. The Councilmen expect to go
up there this afternoon but can't say
when the Planning Commission will
do so. The members may also go up
this afternoon.
I'm urging the purchase of this
plot I'm not going to do so with the
idea that this is an unusual bargain.
I do not say it is. But L 90 say it is
certainly an ideal playground site. and
that the price at which it is offered, is
fair and reasonable. The assessment
for the property of $11,5OO, 1 do not
think is a matter for consideration in
this instance because the assessment
is hardly indicative of value. The
Polytechnic hospital site alone was Of
fered to us for $4,000; from the pres
ent owners we now could buy that
site for S14,700.
Ground Ideal For Purpose
'tThe ground is ideal for q play
ground and think the West End peo-

from the 100000 park and play

A YEAR OF DEATH
Nd "PEAcE ON EARTH

Since the time OF the third cen

~ day Of Joy in honor OF the birth
OF Christ, our only perfect man.
II has ever been our policy 10
speak Of Christmas in tones OF
gentleness, and love, and compas.
Sion, aud humility; in words OF
praise and thankiuIness for the
blessings nf the year that would
Soon piss into history.
NoS we approach the glorious
, Christmas day with feelings Of sor.
row aud sadness, and regret, Tor
We are soon to witness the death Of
a year OF death.
Today, when we should revel in
the Joy Of living We are consumed
with compassion for our brothers
who are perishlna ia the blood.
soaked trenches OF Europe.
W. are weighed down with sor'
row for the unfortunate women and
andpchildren who must bear the
: tAe bmdens OF 1.-The gressass and
most destructive human blight the
world has ever known.
Our hearts are saddened with re.
gret that the meek and gentle spirit
OF the Nazarene is forgotten in a
wild and bloody carnage OF death
and destruction,
Nineteen hundred and fifteen, a
year Of death, will soon reach its
own fitting end--in death.
There comes time in the life Of
every person when neither tongue
nor pen can express the language
OF the heart.
II is 80 with us as We write OF
this Christmas day.
Our face should be turned toward
the Christ, yet in our vision we see
the crimson stained fields OF Europe,
the famine ridden land OF Mexico,
the dying race OF the Christian Ar.
menians, on every hand the grim
and terrible spectre Of harsh, VIC.
lent, sudden and agonizing death.
