Kaiser Wilhelm was today quoted as
having made this statement to a prominent
neutral who visited Berlin on business of an
official character last year and made an
other visit last month.

OF the neutral visitors, he suddenly put the question:

responsible for the war has got a hold on

Before any of his guests could reply, he
added:
''It is curious how this theory seems to
fascinate my enemies. Yet the people who
accuse me of having caused the war are the
very people who previously testified to the
. earnestness of my desire for peace.
: "Why is it that you neutrals always talk
about German militarism and never about
Russian despotism, the French craving for
revenge or English treachery?"

LUTHERAN CHURCH NOTES

Next Sunday morning German divine
worship will be conducted at the
Luaheran Church. The pastor will
base his defitations on special select
lens from the Gospel. These discour-
ses are very much appreciated by the
worshippers because they afford an
opportunity to become familiar with
other portions of Scripture which are
not found in the series of the regular
Gospels.

School meets at $50 in the morning.
Also the Fredericksburg and Sheri-
dan Sunday Schools will again re-
same their work. Both Sunday
School meet at o'clock at the Fred
ericksburg and Mottsville schools re-
speetively.
Last Sunday very interesting
business meeting was held by the vot-
inb members of the English division of

members We're accepted and some an
nounced for acceptance.
