Hours.

Chris Freeman, who operates the
garage formerly owned by Walter D.

ord for long distance automobile

the trip required and the time which
he employed in covering the distance
between the Cape and Little Rock,
Ark, is the record for Southeast Mis-
souri,, he says.

Chalmers automobile belonging to a
Mr.. Deible Of Little Rock Monday

evening. He did not have the least
trouble, not even a puncture on the

REASON FOR GERMAN
ATROCITIES

DR.. Newell Dwight Hills Of Plym-
outh Temple, Brooklyn, has just re-
turned from a visit of two months at
the battle front in Europe. The fol-
lowing are extracts from sermon he
preached, the title of which was "The
Crimes and Atrocities of Germany,
the Logical and Inevitable Result of
the German Philosophy of Militar-
ISM"
Here upon this pulpit rests re-
production of an iron coin given as
token to each German soldier. At the
top is a German portrait of the deity
and underneath are these words:
1.-The good old German god
ENCOURAGING CRUELTY
"To encourage the German soldier
to cruelty and atrocity against Bel
gians and French, the deity holds
weapon in his right hand, and to dull
his conscience and steel his heart to
murder, the token holds these words:
"'Smite your enemy dead. The day
of judgment will not ask you for your
reasons
"To this native characteristic
Goethe was referring when he said:
1.-the Prussian is naturally cruel;
civilization will intensity that cruelty
and make him a savage
Knowing his people thoroughly the
kaiser called his soldiers before him
and gave them this charge:
MAKE yourself more frightful
than the Huns under Attila. See that
for 1000 years no enemy mentions
the name of Germany without shud-
dering.'
"Who named them Huns? Their
kaiser. Who christened them bar
barians? Their kaiser"
