WHY KAISER DROPPED
HIS CHIEF OF STAFF
Gen, Won Fa1kenhayn Said to Have
Wanted to Fight on De-
fensive Only.

LONDON. September According
to reports from Germany received at
Bern" says a dispatch to the Wireless
Press "the dismissal Of Gen. Erich Won
FaIkenhayn as chief Of the German
general staff was due to his suggestion
of complete change in Germany's war
plans which Emperor William indig-
nantIy rejected.
predicting the complete downfall of
Bulgaria as the result Of converging
attacks from the north and south and
in the end consequent interruption
of communications with Turkey, Gen.
Won Falkenhayn urged that the whole
Balkan campaign be abandoned; that
the eastern line be shortened, and that
the occupied territory in France be
evacuated
THE general expressed the opinion
that the transformation of German
strategy into a purely defensive cam
paign on a shorter front would para
lyze the entente allies and make it
impossible for them to crush Austro-
German resistance unless they fought
with unlimited resources, and then for
ten years. Persistence in the present
plan of campaign. he said, would lead
to disaster
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg de-
nounced this advice as childish. cow
ardly and unworthy Of tie Germans.
Emperor William took Won linden

enhayn-"

Ny observation has taught me that
all birds are not so impolite to their
mates as the cardinal proved to be. =
I fed the birds all last winter-suet,
cracked nuts, seeds and crumbs. A
pair of bluejays came every morning
for their breakfast. They never quar-
relied, but divided everything in the
most amicabfe way. One morning while
they were eating, the neighbours cat
frightened them away. The next day
Mrs. Jay absolutely refused to come
dswn to the ground to eat. She sat
high tip in q large maple tree and
looked longfpgly at the breakfast, but
would not come down. Her mate flew
from the ground to her perch and back
again several times, coaxftfg in a low.
soft voice, but a1l in vain. At last he
flew to the ground, picked up the
largest piece Of bread he could find
and carried it to her. This he did sew

when they both flew away.
When the first warm spring days
came, placed large pan of water
under d big lilac bush, where the birds
could battle and drink.
One warm morning Mr.. Robin came,
and had just started to take his cold
plunge when Mrs. Robin appeared on

out on the grass and waited patiently
until his spouse had refreshed herself
