Fined For Striking Match

For the benefit of any Of our
friends who contemplate going
to London, We publish the fol-
lowing:
That no order lights OUT is
being enforced in Great Brit.
ain is shown by the lighting of a
match in the streets which might
be a guide to the lay of the land
to a prowling Zeppelin. In a
northeast coast town a man was
committed to jail for striking
matches n the street at night to
light his pipe. 1t was alleged
that the offender was drunk.
The magistrate declared that the
prisoner had endangered the lives
of thousands of people, as a I'p.
pelin had been reported in the
vicinity. For a similar oifense
another man was fined 81, that
is $40.

Germany's Penalty

We all know what the last year
and half of the Civil War meant
to the South; it well-nigh annihi-
lated their youth Boys and old men
were called to the.front, and half a
century after the struggle the
South is only beginning to recover.
This is what another yeac of the
war will mean to Germany. On
the western front, French, British ,
and American manhood will divide
the cost of the battle in human
life. But the German manhood
will have to defray it all and the
tax will therefore, be enormously
higher upon the German.
Germany, by using ens'aved
populations, has been able to put
far greater percentage OF herman
hood on the firing line than her OPP
-ponents; this has enabled her to hold
off her enemies, and still enables
her to do it, but it has also com
PEELED her to use up a far greater
fraction of her human capital and
thus cripple herself in the after

Dear Recorder:
l wish to say through your good
paper to my relatives and friends
in Monterey and adjacent country
that | am back home in old Kan
sas, and seems good to get on level
land again. Not that | did not
enjoy greatly the privilege of be-
ing permitted after so many long
years to make a visit back there.
l enjoyed itgreatly and was accord
ed such kind treatment by all, both
kinfolks and others, and am sorry
I could not visit more of the folks;
I hope they will not think hard of
me for not doing so. 1t seems |
ought to get back home before
cold weather set in. and | was
needed at home. | will never for
get the good time had at the old
Confederate soldiers reunion at Nc
Dowell and the kind treatment &C
corded me on that occasion, as l
was the only one present who wore
the blue. Surely the civil war has
been over for more than fifty years
and all bitterness passed away and
we are one people again.
We have had very dry, season
here and it is still verv dry. No
rain to speak of since last June,
and if we don't get some pretty
soon we will not get wheat crop
next wear.
The city Of Wichita continues to
grow very rapidly, many fine bust
ness houses, being built. With the
very best regards to all.
Yours sine rely,
