Denver.
Hello there. Will" he cried. "It feels
good TO see someone you know from your
home town"
So we had little "private conversation"
about our escapades in the good old days
and he told me that he was glad to be in
Uncle Sam s service. and how he was being
elevated from an educational standpoint in
the navy, and that he wouldn't miss it
for the world" And it struck me that it
wouldn' be bad idea to show our patriot
ism by boosting Uncle Sans navy in this
advertisement, and incidentally do little
boosting for the Ideals unloading sale.

ed their greatest effort, both of which
produced important and immediate
gains. These military moves are re-
garded as the real answer to the Pope.
There is considerable evidence that
success has been attained by recent
efforts Of the allied. authorities to get
before the German people accurate
knowledge regarding the real condt-
lions in England, France and the
United States. Some weeks ago a
large number of German prisoners
were brought from Flanders to Lon
don. Until their capture they had
believed that Paris was held by the
Germans; that London had been prac-
tically destroyed by air raids and de-
serted by it's inhabitants.
After they arrived in London and
noticed the citys normal life and its
usual activity they wrote letters de-
scribing what they had seen to
friends at home. Whether these let
ters reached their destinations is un-
known, but the recent development OF
German pessimism is believed to in
dictate that the German public at last
REALIZES part at least of the truth.
Many prisoners recently have assert
by the belief that although their con-
dition was bad that of England was
far worse.

given by the Nieue Freie Press, hich
says:
