Offense to Speak
French to Germans

BASEL. Switzerland Cvia sParis), Jan.

Alsatians In Basel as weighing heavily
upon their countrymen at home.

French is classified as an offense under

generals Of the Fourteenth, Fifteenth,
Sixteenth and Twenty-first German army
corps. who cite the imperial laws OF 1878
and 1882 to support their contention. The
testimony OF the children and servants

SANTA CLAUS HELPED CHRIST
MAS-WHO WILL AID NEXT?
The gift that someone was asked
to remember at the eleventh hour
was remembered. The child who
wrote to The Day Book so that the
letter reached us the day before
Christmas and was published that
day, writes out of a full heart and
with 10-year-old spelling as follows:
Dear Day Book: thank you be-
cause you printed my letter. A gen.
tlemen came to us and made up a
find Christmas present He gave
mother five dollars and made our
Christmas happe. Father is very
sick. He never ask for help. He al
ways worked hard. But now he is so
sick that he can't move. I am ten
years old. l have three younger sis
ter and one little baby brother and
we pray to God to help us. Mary
Babyecky, GAG Wells St. Top fiat"
In Mary's previous letter she told
The Day Book that her father had q
sickness that made him spit blood
when he coughed and that he was a
striking tailor, but wouldn't be able
to work now. Her mother had been
supporting the little family by doing
laundry work until it was no longer
possible.
The Christmas spirit sent to the
home of Mary a Santa Claus who
gave the family that which insured
them a "happe" Christmas, but the
Christmas spirit doesn't die on the
morning after Christmas and there
may be some of our readers who may
wan to extend a further helping
hand to this destitute family.
