BERNSTORFF WANTS
TO KNOW REASON WHY
Asks tho State Department for Expla-

Won Papen.

WASHINGTON, Dec Count Won
Bernstorff today presented to the state
department communication asking for
the reason for the request for the with
drawal Of Captain Boyd and Captain
Won Papen, the German naval and mill
tary attaches, respectively
Should it develop from the state depart
ment's answer that other incidents than
the Archibald case and the testimony at
the trial Of the conspirators of the Ham
burg-American line were considered by
the United States in asking that the at
taches be withdrawn Germany will contest
the Withdrawals
Should the department reply that those
two incidents alone were responsible with
drawal viii take place without further in
quiry or protest Even then Germany
will consider that under the circumstances
the United States must open the way for
the attaches to leave the country All
this action IS considered by officials of the
state department to be contrary to prece-
dents OF diplomatic procedure Under all
diplomatic usage it is only necessary for
the United States to indicate to Germany
that the attaches are persona non grata
and 1t is not necessary to give reason Tor
asking for their withdrawal The German
ambassadors actions today came as a dis

This is the finger of God. - The fig
ure was used as a suggestion of point
ing the way ministers should 60. He
asserted that there were too many pro
fessional ministers. When the passion
for souls fails power hees. A preacher
should not be a mere lecturer. Oratorv
has flavor of incincerity at times. A
minister 5 whole life should bear a
flavor of heaven.
Ministers ought to be definite il
their preaching and their sermons
should have an authoritative note and
be free from shaky points. They should
know where they stand on the ques-
tion Of Christ and the Bible and should
yield fully to the will Of God to work
through them. A prominent New York
business man was led to come out for
Christian service through hearing a
sermon by DIR. Burrcll. He did not re-
member the sermon, but it was God
working through the minister that
| touched him.

HINSDALE. N. H.
Ten Hunters Rewarded with Deer.

After rather inauspicious opening OF
the deer season the deer hunters. aided by
the light fall of snow Thursday and Friday
evenings, came into their own and in the
past few days they have killed nine good
sized animals, bringing the total to date
up to 10 The complete list OF the success
ful hunters is as follows: Sidney Darling,
doe; Ralph Freeman, buck John Coll.
buck; Neil Latham, buck; Geo Wheeler.
buck: William Snow. doe; Floyd Sprague,
doe; Clifford Royce, doe; Glen Higgins,
buck: w t. Brooks. buck
This is convincing evidence that snow is
great help to the hunters after deer at
this season OF the year and while the
ground is again practically bare it probably
will not remain SO many days There arc
many stories true and untrue, the latter
due most often to mistakes connected with
deer hunting, all of which are at least in
teresting.
4 ease OF unheard-of honesty came to
light Friday when two hunters came upon
dead buck and alter following the back
track to the place where the animal had
been shot discovered that Ralph Freeman
had fired at the animal under an apple tree
near his house the night before and had
not followed it up. His surprise was gen,
