ADAM AND EVE PRUssIANs,
WRITES GERMAN WOMANI


The following letter from a young
Switzerland is published in the Trib
une de Geneve, published in the
French language in Geneva:
MY dear little Louise:
THE contents of your last letter
would have wounded me If had not
known your opinions on our glorious
war were the outcome Of ignorance.
You live in a country which is eff
terminated by the influence of old
fashioned ideas of liberty, and which
Is now centuries behind us. You re-
quire a strong dose of Prussia9 cul-
ture. 1t is evident that you, a Swiss,
fashioned to French thought, cannot
understand that my young German
girls heart has ardently, passionately
desired this war; it has been talked
of with us for years, and my father
used to say to us, Children, Germany
IS becoming too small for us; we must
return to France in order TO make a
place for ourselves and to get money
you have something to learn in
order TO equal us. There is only one
country worthy to dominate the whole
world, which has attained a high de-
gree of civilization, and that is ours,
the Prussians! l say Prussians, for
If, as Germans, We are overlOrds of
the world. the Prussian is par excel
lence the overload OF the Germans.
All other nations are degenerate and
OF inferior value.
"Only yesterday our pastor was eX-
planning in a convincing manner that
the first human beings, Adam and
Eve, were also Prussians That is easy
TO understand, for in the Bible H. is
written that our German God has
created us according to his own i'm
age. II, therefore, all men have de.
seconded from a Prussian Adam and
from his wife, there should only exist
Prussians, or at least Germans, and
everything that grows and exists
should belong to us. That is why oul
device is God with us and Germany
over all
rs It not shameful that other peo
pies who have no right TO exist OF
this earth, should wish to reduce on
inheritance? We are the divine fruit
and all others are but weeds. That il
why our great emperor, representing
God on earth, has decided to put al
end to all these injustices and TO eX
terminate the weeds"
MAKE NEUTRALS WORK
FOR US, is SUGGESTION.

ICE FLOEs SPARE RAILROAD.

So far this year no delays have been
caused on the Port Deposit and Co
lumbia Branch OF the PENNSYLVANIA
Railroad by ice jams on the Susque-
hanna river In many places the tracks
skirt the river for long distances and
usually during the early spring thaws
the railroad encounters no end OF
difficulty. In some instances ice has
piled many feet above the tracks.
In spite Of the heavy freezes during
the past month and the quantities OF
ice that have filled the river, the thaws
have come so gradually and that no
trouble has resulted. Much OF the
ice has already left the river, and
railroad Ofiiciels feel certain that for
this year, at least. the tracks Will es-
cape ice blockades.

threatened by the danger of war in

there is no allegiance which can be
yours save the single, absolute and
unadulterable allegiance to America.

her hour of crisis, even though you
