For the famous Barre granite.
Bill, you Hun, you'll have to run,
The Barre boys are coming.
They'll give 1t to you hot,

As soon as they start cunning,
Then you'll have to stop.
You and your crew they will surround,
And you will wish, you Shiny fish,
That you were safely underground
At home with homely Mars, your gott.
Little Willie, too, for you it's skidoo!
They'll make you have some fits,

You'll be pricked in the neck
But yours with sticking

GERMAN SEAMEN'S MUTINY SIGN
OF U-BOAT FAILURE

The reported mutiny on board two
ships of the German navy because of
repugnance to performing service in sub
marines is, if true, revelation that serv-
ice in the undersea boats is not the at
tractive and comparatively safe work
which it was at the outset of the cam
paign. Then the submarines were in
slight danger because the defensive
methods of the entente allies were not
worked up to high stage of efficiency;
the submarines could steal up to their
wallow idly along while their crews were
watching the frantic efforts of the occu-
pants of the fated ships to save them
selves. Now with the development of
defensive methods and particularly with
the advent of the American torpedo boat
destroyers on the scene of activity the
submarines are almost as much the hunt
ed creatures as are the merchant ships.
1t is no longer possible for the subma-
rines to make safe getaways after at
lacking their prey; indeed it is some
times difficult for them to escape the de-
stroyers even before firing their torpe-
does, and the lot of the seamen cooped
in the close, grimy interior Of the U-boat
is anything but safe. The Germans die
like rats in a trap when their subms-
rines are disabled; they fight each other
with the desperation of despair as they
realize their fate; they 60 to death in
tombs of their own fashioning, as it were.
So, taken all in all. submarine service is
not, at this stage OF the war, a very at
traetive proposition; and the reported
refusal Of German seamen on board war
ships to enter upon that service may be
taken as an indication Of the failure Of

Docterin' the Monroe Doctrine in Petf

Docterin' the Monroe Doctrine in Peth.
A bunch of men got into an argument
over the war at Steve Cleyeland's cider
mill in peth Friday evening and Elmer
Monroe said in substance that the Unit
ed States had no right to send soldiers
to fight in France, that it was unlawful
and added that he hoped none of the
id fools who went over would ever
come back. Fred Jerd didn't fancy this
remark and asked him to repeat 1t, which
Munroe did. Fred then pasted him one
and a few more for good measure. Mon
roe, who is good deal bigger than Jerd,
demonstrated the true pacifst spirit by
declining to put up his dukes" but
threatened to set the law onto Fred
Jerd simply asked those present TO re-
member what Monroe had said. There Is
much more danger OF Monroe's hearing
from the law for his seditious utterances
than Jerd for the deserved walloping he
handed the Peth man. That is kind of
Monroe doctrine not generally relished in
this locality-Ra Randolph item

already have arrived on the lines of Ital-

been time enough to bring up fairly

reason to hope that the progress of the
