ELKS PREPARING
MEMORIAL Event
FOR DECEMBER z

Preparations for the annual obser-
vance of Elks memorial day, which
this year falls on December 2, are
well under way in the local Elks lodge.
For the past several weeks a commit
tee of six has been working out the
details and the program is now taking
definite shape.
Mission Memorial hall has been Sc
cured for the holding of the EIks SER
vices and departure from past Gus
tom will be made in the holding Of
the services in the evening instead OF
the afternoon. While these services
are primarily intended for the Elks
and the families of EIks and relatives
of those Elks who have gone on be-
fore, they are always open to the
public in general and program is
arranged so full of beauty and charm
that it must appeal to others who are
less directly interested than the mem
bers of this order.
Separate lodges have no voice in
the selection of day for honoring the
memory of their departed brothers.
The date is established by the regu-
lations Of the grand lodge and it is
safe to say that on the first Sunday
Of December nearly a quarter of a
million Elks will

 of single one of our brave
 soldiers-the rigorous accom-
 plishment of duty is the emana-
 tion of a high Kultur, and in
 that, the populations of the en-
 emy countries can learn a les son from our army"
 Gen. von Bissing, after his
 appointment as governor gen. eral of Belgium, repeated in substance the above opinion to a Dutch journalist. The inter view is publisted in the Dussel- dorfer Anzeiger of December 8, 1914.
 Irwin s. Cobb states that his conclusions on the responsibil- ity of the higher German com mand for the atrocities:
 "But I was an eyewitness to crimes which, measured by the standards of humanity and civ ilization, impressed me as worse than any individual ex- cess, any individual outrage, could ever have been or can ev- CT be; because these crimes indubitably were instigated on a wholesale basis by order of officers of rank, and must have been carried out under their personal supervision, direction, and approval. Briefly, what I saw was this: saw wide areas of Belgium and France in which not a penny's worth of wanton destruction had been permitted to occur, in which the ripe pears hung untouched upon the garden walls; and I saw other wide areas where scarcely one stone had been left to stand upon another; where the fields were ravaged; where the male villagers had been shot in squads; where the miserable survivors had been left to den in holes like wild beasts.
 Taking the physical evil oSIlCC Ol1 O1 GU OC1OIO Ou1 OW1l eyes, and buttressing it with the statements made to us, not only by natives but by German soldiers and German officers, we could reach but one conclu- sion, which was that here, in such and such a.place, those in command had said to the troops: Spare this town and these people, And there they had said: Waste this town and shoot these people, And here the troops had discriminatory spared, and there they had in- discriminatory wasted, in exact | accordance with the word of | heir superiors.

GERMAN WAR PRACTICES

Continued from last week.
 Some of the rules laid down in the German War Book are illustrated and their spirit made more definite in L'Inter- prete Militaire gum Gebrauch i'm Feindesland (Military inter- preter for Use in the Enemy's Country). This is a manual ed tied in Berlin in 1906. "It con- tains," says the introduction, ''the French translation of the greater part of the documents. letters, and proclamations, and some orders of which it may be necessary to make use in time of war" Thus, eight years be- fore this war began, the Ger man military authorities were not only preparing their officers to wage war in manner who'll ly contrary to the Hague regu- lations, but also were looking forward to the use of these proclamations in French and Belgian territory. Among it's forms, ready for use by insert ing names, date, and place, are the following:
 "A fine of 600, 900 marks in consequence of an attempt made by --to assassinate a German soldier, is imposed on the town of O. By order Efforts have been made without result to secure the withdrawal of the fine.
 "The term fixed for payment expires tomorrow, Saturday, December 17, at noon
 Bank notes, cash, or silver plate will be accepted"
 have to acknowledge re- ceipt of your letter dated the 7th of this month, in which you bring to my notice the great diff fculty which you expect to meet in levying the contribu- tions. * * * Il can but re- gret the explanations which you have thought proper to give me on this subject; the order in question which emanates from my Government is SO clear and precise, and the instructions which I have received in the matter are so categorical that if the sum due by the town of R- is not paid, the town will be burned down without pity!" "On account of the destruc- ton of the bridge of F@, order: The district shall pay a special contribution of 10000 900 francs by way of amends. This is brought to the notice of the public who are informed that the method of assessment' will be announced later and that the payment eff said sum will be enforced with the ut- most severity. The village of F- will be destroyed im- mediately by fire, with the ex- ception of certain buildings oc- cupied for the use of troops"
 These forms have been of great use to the German com in Belgium and north ern France. The closeness with which they have been fol- lowed in these conquered lands during the present war, may be seen by reading the following proclamations and the other proclamations which are print ed elsewhere in this pamphlet.
 "The City of Brussels, ex-
 elusive of it's suburbs has been
 punished by an additional fine
 of 5000, 900 francs on. account
 of the attack made upon a

its second year in London. Twin Beds

ARE YOU GOING TO GET THAT
CALIPATRIA FARM BEFORE
THE COMPLETION OF THE
RAILROAD.

If you stop to think for a minute
you will readily see what the rail-
road is going to mean for these farm
lands. 1t will mean, first Of all, cheap
transportation; it will mean the bring
ing of the railroad to you as farm
er instead of your having to haul
your crops to the railroad, as most
every farmer has to do.
This will, of course, mean, that
these farms will assume a value that
no other farm can or will have at
some distance from the railroad, and
this you can take advantage of by
buying one of these farms today; but
don't wait until this road is complet-
ed and then come around and expect
to buy as cheaply as you can to-
DAY.
In spite Of all the enormous i'm
Frovements that have been put in by
the Farm Lands Association on these
lands; in spite of the thousands and
thousands of dollars that have been
spent, they are still selling these lands
for the same price that was asked for
them three years ago, before a dol
lar had been spent, but they are go
ing fast and you must act at once
to pat tho hanafit for hy waiting
you are going to pay some one nice
profit.
The cheapest good land, the cheap
est and best water facilities, the
cheapest transportation and chance
to buy on terms that will permit you
to let the land pay for itself. But
don't again delay. Write or call on
Mr.. H. C. Clark of Calipatria, the
general manager and agent for these
Calipatria farm lands.

SAYS GENERAL CONDEMNATION
OF EXPORTERS is UNFAIR

Pittsburg, Jan. 29.-By the way of
informing the world that blunders
made by American exporters are the
exception rather than the rule, the
National Foreign Trade Council re-
ported to the Fourth National For
eign Trade Convention, which will
close here today, that the fragmentry
reports made on American trade have
given an erroneus impression.
The report said in part: "A situ-
alton has recently arisen affecting the
reputation of American exporters
which contains elements both of great
good and great harm. Certain Amer
lean consuls, commercial organiza-
tions and banks have done useful
service in sharply calling attention to
specific derelictions on the part of
Americans in export trade.
In itself, this had done good, but
| it is apparent that many newspapers,
magazines and individuals have made
these specific complaints the basis
for generalizations highly discredit-
able to all American foreign trade.
This generalization is untrue. This
can be proven by citing that our ex-
port of manufactures nearly doubled
between 1905 and 1913-a practical
l!y unparalleled expansion"

DILLON AND MISKE IDEAL

New York, Jan. 29.-The two bouts
staged recently in New York between
Billy Miske, the light heavyweight
demon of St. Paul, and Jack Dillon,
the Indianapolis whiz, have accom-
plished at least one thing. They have
proved beyond a question that the
fans neysr~wi11 be satisfied as to who
,ssfeally the better man until the two
have had a chance to mill it out in a
long bout with a referees decision
tackled onto the last round.
Each bout between the two in New
York has resulted in an overwhelm-
ing opinion among New York news
papers in favor of Miske. Each time,
however, there have been enough dis
senting voices to make it quite ap-
parent that enough of a shade was
not earned to warrant decision. In
the first bout, two papers awarded
decision to Dillton, while two others
called the bout a draw.
Such slamming and banging as has
been indulged in by these boys GER
tainly calls for a better opportunity
than has been afforded in New Yorl
with referee who refused to recog
nize that Queensberry rules call fol
a man to fight with one arm free

George, driven reckless, marries Mad

promptly disinherits him. Hunger and
want soon come. A child is born and

While George is Ill, his father arrives
