THE WEARY ONE.

wish I lived in Iceland. Or somewhere round the Pole, Where temperatur are zero Would be my daily goal. Where could nap on icebergs, And live on frozen stuff; Of such ideal comfort,
 I ne'er could get enough. wish I were a merman
 To live in waters cool. Where ne'er a heat wave wandered, Ones hopes of ease to fool. There I would be contented To watch the passing sails, And for an humble living
 To teach school of whales. I wish instead of ardor.
 I had a nature cold, With manners almost freezing That never warmth would hold. wish that winter weather
 With July days would chime For. oh, how l do hate it- The good old summer timei

Pastor Addresses Young People,

The morning service Sunday at the First Congregational church was of unusual interest In the anthem, In asmuch as ye have done! the clear enunciation by the soprano added new beauty to the music and impressive ness to the words. Much enjoyed was the singing at the offertory by Miss Ruth L. Potter of the hymn, Jesus and the New Year, written by Rev. J. O. BarrowS.
 The pastor based his talk to the young people which preceded the ser mon, upon the words, Follow His Steps He gave an incident of his childhood when on a wintry morning he followed through the deep snow to school, in the steps of one older, draw ing from this lessons of watchfulness. of one step at a time not skipping steps as in studies at school. look ing unto the goal, Jesus Christ.

Paris opera tenor, clad in wooden
shoes. dirty ud-streaked trousers and
a ~.thread-bare sweater vest, singing
arias from La Tosca. M1gnon and the
Barber OF Seville on a rude wooden
stage whose Scenery consisted OF
one rudely painted drop and a few
strips OF colored paper, to an audience
OF 500 French and Belgian soldiers, all
OF them as dirty as he, was n OF the
entertaining incidents which The AS
toc1ated Press correspondent encounter
ed on his visit to the great war pris-
oners' camp at G~oettingen.

In his best role he ever sang better

In khaki as violinists and cornetists,
Belgian as flutists. Frenchmen as

1t Is noteworthy that the Russians,
who are present in the camp in large
aumbers, neither are represented among
the musicians nor attend the concerts
to any extent. AS in every other camp,

economizing. We are spending two and a
half, possibly even three, millions every
day. We are borrowing sums that would
have been thought utterly impossible and
incredible 10 months ago. And yet peo-
pie are living as extravagantly as they
lived In the piping times Of peace.
There are new demands for recruiting,
There are even. hysterical demands for
compulsory service. And yet we are told
In the same breath that the army is ex-
posed to unnecessary loss OF life because
there 10 not a sufficient supply of NUM-
lions. And people. for all that, will not
recognize that there Is q scarcity Of
trained men to turn out the munitions that
are needed.
In the same way. while great fortunes
are being made by those who are working
for the government what may be called
peace business is practically at a stand
still. Even the trades that we always
a conducted we are neglecttng. On
the other hand. we are buying fabulous
quantities from the United States, Arcen-
tina and other countries.
Debts are being run up in enormous
amounts. and nobody seems to ask HIM
self: How Is the bill to be paid when the
day OF reckoning comes? We shall prob
ably muddle through, to use the accus.
toned phrase. Hut IS It not time that we

mo more severe charges have been made
against the ruling power of the great
central empire" Of Europe than those ut
tered by these German voices. They cry
out that this power has shattered our
homes, darkened our lives, robbed us OF
our bravest sons and set the whole civil
lied world against u.s." They charge 1t
witt having by foul corruption deceived
the Turkish nation and comprised its
rum and they declare that to their last
hours the kaiser, Won TIrpitz and Beth
man-Hollweg will carry upon them the
brand OF shame for the unparalleled ruin
they have wrought and the misery into
which they have plunged the world by
their barbarism on land and sea.
Like a Smoking Volcano.
The significance of this language lies in
the fact that 1t does not come from enc
mics of Germany, or eve from men Of
German blood who were exiled by this
very Prussian m%ilitarism in time past and
have shared in the blessings OF democratic
government in other lands. 1t Is uttered
by devoted sons of the fatherland who
long for such blessings in the home Of
their race and their kindred. They are
making an earnest appeal to every demo-
cratic Saxon. Bavarian, Hanoverian and
Wurtemburger to JOIN hands will all who
realize the unspeakable crime Of unpro-

Luxembourg and the cessation of bloody
outrage in Alsace and Lorraine"
One can only wonder how much of this
spirit of revolt is still slumbering be-
nunbed under the surface OF the states
which constitute the empire of Germany,
ready to break out IL some great climax
should be reached to cause an eruption. 1t
has been suppressed, but 1t has not be-
come extinct. A generation has grown up
under the molding inhuenc of the Prus-
sian system of government, derived from
the medieval time. and on the surface it is
cased with iron and adorned with i'm
perial %splendor. But there may yet be
something volcanic underneath. 1t can
only tumble while the armies are tram
ping over the fields and holding their
ground against enemies who nave been
aroused to madness in their own defense
and in a determination to expel the de-
mons of war from their borders and ex-
tinguish the fires in which they revel and
threaten the peace of the world and tho
welfare of mankind.
