I told the captain and the other man
I would outfit them with some Of Mr.
Green's old clothes. l rummaged the
closets, but all l could find was a
slightly moth eaten suit Of evening
clothes and red and white blazer. l
had never suspected Mr.. Green of own

The captain possessed himself Of the
evening clothes and while he was put
ting them on l asked what had hap
pened.
Il didn't have no business putting

girl there seemed in an awful sweat to

THE German socialists are the

When they learn that the people OF

there shall be no compromise be-

that they will have to set their own
