Baseball Players
Sought by British

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-For grenade
throwing on the menaced west front in
France baseball players are wanted by
the Chicago office Of the British-Can-
adam recruiting mission. Men of Brit
ish or Canadian citizenship and man.
ayers are asked to help the volunteer
ing of their men, who can qualify.
Baseball players can do better at
grenade throwing than other men, of
course" said bulletin of the recruit
ing mission. They have the strength
of arm necessary to throw far and &C
curately. 1t is far more important to
have good men throwing grenades at
the Huns than to build up winning
team for 1918. All recruiting depots
want the right men for Canadian in
fantry
I'VE can take ordinary Iaborers and
teach them in ten days to put gren
AIDES into a fourfoot hole at thirty
five yards, but this is day of spec
ializing."

Kaiser's Great Palace on Mount
of Olives Was to Haze Been
Seat of His New World Empire

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Dec. 90
The Springfield Union prints the fol
lowing:
Or Clarence D. USHER, the famous
medical missionary to Turkey, who Is
well known to Springfield people, de
scribes in his book, An American Ply
stefan in Turkey the palace of the
Kaiser Wilhelm in Jerusalem, which
has just been captured by the British
army. Dr. usher, who visited that
city in 1918, was told that this palace
was to be the place where the Kaiser
would reign as head of his world-king
dom. He writes:
I'm 1913, on my way to the meeting
Of the Medical Missionary Association
of Turkey in Jerusalem. l visited Jaffa
Frof Jaffa / saw in the distance high
tower, and on inquiring what it was
was informed that 1t was the tower of
the German hospice on the Mount OF
Olives. | gained access to the building
and found 1t magnificent and pala-
tial structure covering several acres
of ground. There was in it large
throne room with raised dias and be-
hind this a beautiful mosaic picture of
Frederick Barbarossa with ais beard
grown through the table as In the leg
end On the right-hand wall was the
portrait of the Empress Of Germany
and on the left-hand wall the royal
arms of Prussia. There was a power
full searchlight in the tower which COM
manded view of the Mediterranean,
the Dead Sea and the River Jordan. 1t
WAS whispered to me that there were
cannon in the basement, struggled in
as machinery and from the tower
was pointed out to me double row of
wire entanglements about the build
ing.
Surprised and puzzled by ali this l
saiy: Tell me truly. l can not be-
lieve that so elaborate and costly a
building is meant simply as an inn for
pilgrims. Who built it? What is its ul-
innate purpose?"
They informed me that it had been
built and paid for by Kaiser Wilhelm
and dedicated by the crown prince a
few months previously. When again
inquired its ultimate purpose, I was
told IL was to be first, the palace of
the German Governor of Palestine
And them I queried, and them?
And then of the Kaiser himself,
from which he will rule his world king
DOM
Il laughed at this point and got no
further information.
I considered their final statement
so absurd that I did not even discuss
it with my English friends in Jerusa-
lem. and ridiculed it in my letters
home-of which fact l have been re-
minded since I came to America
thought differently about the incident

THOUGHTS TO THINK
ABOUT.

Tact turns the scale IN your
favor II you weigh AL that you
say and never say ANYTHING In
q mean way.
Fate knocks you down now
and then. but asks you to get UP
again; the man with . sob Will
not find q job, though he thinks
the world should give T.
Smiles make tho world seem
good, but you cannot smile
unless you see all as good;
hate 10 soon conquered BY the
good, but until then smiles are
not understood
