WAR PRISONERS rHEATER.
English Captives In German Prison
 Camp Give a Show.


 The following story of life in Ger man prison camp was issued a few days ago by the German information service as proof that Germany is kind to the enemies who fall into German hands The translation reads:
 "On the evening of the day on which Lord Kitchener stated before the Brit iSh parliament that English prisoners in Germany were harshly used a vaudeville performance by the prison CTS and for the prisoners took place ill the camp at Ruhleben, says the Der liner Tageblatt The program gives evidence of good humor, which could scarcely exist with bad treatment.
 The commandant of the camp sane toned the performance. and from the program it is seen that the prisoners, among whom there are well known artists, made the performance very jolly affair. To be sure, one must not conclude from this that the prisoners receive any preferential treatment. The vaudeville performance in Ruhle- ben is simply one of the many proofs that the treatment of prisoners is gov erned by the strict principles of jus ttce and humanity"

The Summery Girl

A quiet resort of the summery sort Is where l am longing to be, Where girls with bright glances are seek ing romances, And cool woods would beckon to me, Where roaming and boating and swim ming and floating Furmality put out of curl, And sq is the heart of the summery sort Of summer resorty girl. I've tried every jolly and dangerous folly The prodisll city affords; I've toyed to satiety with each variety Of the bait served us on swords; And none of it thrills me-wirh Snnui il fills me
 And yet l d get all in a whirl Could l ramble apart at some summer resort
 With a summery sort of girl. Oh. dull may things grow at the garden or show
 And unspeakably dull at the club! You may note streaks of gray. feel you re getting paSse And sigh you're no longer cub, But just take to the woods, run away
 from your moods, And you'll soon frisk about like a
 squirrl When a-strollng you start at summer
 resort
 With a summery sort ofeirl.

In thirty six hours the grippe was knocked silly and I have felt like a new man ever since"
