CROWN PRINCE WRITES PAPA

On the Run, Somewhere in France,
All the Time. Dear Papa l am
writing on der run, as der brave and
glorious sildiers under my command
have not seen der Rhine for so long
dat dey have started back dat way,
and of course l am going NIT dem.
Oh, papa, dere has been some offel
dings happened here in France. First,
l started In my big offensive which
was to crush de fool Americans, but
dey know so little about military
tactics dat dey vii not be crushed
just like want 'em. I sent my men
in der fight in big waves, and ven dey
got to de Americans they all said
"Boo!" as loud as they could boiler.
Veil, according to vat you have al
ways told me, de Americans have
turned and run like blazes. But vat
do you tink? Dem fool Americans
instead Of running de odder way, dey
came right toward us. Some of dem
vas singing about I've Won't Come
Back Till Dis Is Over, Over Dare, ="
or some odder foolish song, and some
OF dem were laughing like dam fools.
Dey are SO ignorant. But dey are
offel reckless NIT der guns, and ven
dey come toward us it was dat my
men took a notion dey wanted to go
back to de dear old Rhine. We don t
like de little dirty Marine river, any
how. And, oh, pap, dem Americans
use such offel language. Dey know
nothings of kultur, and say such offel
dings right before us. And dey talk
blasphemy, too. Vat you tink dey
said right in front of my face? One
big husky from place called Mis-
souri,, he said-oh, papa, hate to tell
you vat an offel ting he said-but /
can't help it; he said, ITO hell init
thing SO offel? l didn't tink anybody
would say such an offffel ting. He
made me so mad | wouldn't stand and
hear such an offel ting so | turned
around and run NIT de odder boys.
Vas l right? Vat? And oh, papa,
you know dem breastplates vot you
sent us--can you send some to put
on our backs? You know dem We are
going the odder way, now, and breast
plates are no good, for the cowardly
Americans are shooting us right in der
back. Some of de boys took off der
breastplates and put 'em behind, but
de fool Americans are playing de
Id ,,,;t o,1Ns t,n
guns on dem plates. Can't you help
us? You remember in your speech
you sand nothing could stand before
the brave German soldiers? Oh,
papa, l don't believe these ignorant
Americans ever read your speech for
dey run after us just like We vas a
lot of rabbits. Vot you tink of dot?
Can't you send dem some of your
speeches right away? Dey don't
know how terrible We are. Can't you
move my army back to Belgium we're
We Won all our glory? My men can
vip the vimmen and children. But
desc Americans are so rough and ig-
norant. We can't make 'em under
stand that We are the greatest SOL
diers on earth, and ven We try to
sing Deutschland lever Allies" dey
laugh like lot Of monkeys. But we
are getting de best of de Americans
We can outrun dem, papa, if We are
not the best fighters on earth We are
de best runners Nobody can keep
up NIT us when We tink of de dear old
Rhine, and my army never did tink
so much of dot dear old river. Let
me know right away vot to do by re-
turn postoffice.

THIS CHANGE WILL GIVE
CLASS ONE 100000
In Cases Where Registrars Were
Married After Passage of Draf.
Act VIII be Carefully Con-
sidered

Washington, June IA genera
revision of classifications under the
selective act was started by Provost
Matlal General Crowdetr when
he telegraphed to the governors OF
all states ordering Investigations to
determine the reason for the small
number of registrants in class one
in some localities.
Thousands Of men now in class
four should be put in class one
land two, the provost marshal said.
The instructions also ordered
investigations to determine if any
men have been enormously put in
the upper classes when they should
have been placed in those lower
down.
1t is expected that the re-arrange-
ment will bring into class one
more than 100000 men.
Cases where retgistrants were
married after Passage of the draft
act will be carefully considered and
if evidence war.ents they will be
classified in class one. Married
men whose wives have sustained
incomes propably will be released.
Local boards, government ap
peal agents, and members of legal
advisory boards are directed to
pay special attention to the follow
ing classes of cases:
"Class two A and B; class three
A. B, and c, and class four A.
Thousands of registrants are now
in class four who should be in class
two or class one.
Local boards should set aside
a special week in June to be called
class one week, to conduct exami-
nations of doubtful cases. CLASH
fications should be scientifically adj
justed now so as to avoid the neces-
sity of proceeding to the deferred
classes"
Repeating the assertion that the
paramount necessity of the nation
is the raising of an army, the pro-
vost marshal generals Office de-
clared there would be no further
extension Of exemptions to special
lied classes of labor, agriculture
or otherwise than already has
been given.

Will Burns, brother of j. P.
Burns, the transfer man has GER
tainly shaved his patriotism. When
war was declared, or shortly after
he tried to enlist, but was reject
ed, on account of a physical all
ment. Then he tried again and
was turned down. He was told an
operation would possibly get him
through SO last week Tuesday he
went to Cresco and underwent the
operation. He went through it
fine, and the writer saw him in
the hospital last Thursday, and the
way he was feeling then he could

is made of the right kind of stuff.

---------II -
ADVERTISING PRICES.

Never before in the history of
newspapers has the advertising of
prices been so good policy as now.
Up to recent times, many people did
not think much about prices. They
paid the Price regardless of wheth-
er it was high or low.
The cost of living has brought
these people up with round turn.
Any man who buys in that und!s-
eliminating way will fad his costs
of living increased from so to 100
per cent.
Many stores are doing clever
stunt in tagging all the articles in
their stores with the prices. People
like to go into such store and, see
what things cost. This works we'll for
all who enter the store, provided
prices are reasonable But it does not
hit the vast majority who go by and
never come in.
The merchants of DEBORAH can hit
the whole population on the price
question, concerning which people
are so keen today, by using the adj
vertising columns of the Public Opin-
ion.
Men and women who never both
cred with the prices of anything be-
fore are now swapping information
on what butter, meat, and clothing
cost. If they find that one merchant
sells potatoes five cents cheaper, that
merchant gets the business and peo-
pie tell their neighbors.
So you can get your store talked
about by the public by the simple eX-
pedient of naming prices in the col
umns of the Public OpiniI PROPOSE
ton.

Raised Over $500 at Blufton.

A Red Cross dance and basket

Friday night and the good people
of that community cleared over
$500 for the Red Cross. Col. Wal

and he certainly did fine, not only
got the money, but gave the crowd
a good entertainment as we'll. The
