Municipal Authorities Of Danzig, Ger

In About Everything.

Fraulein Gertrude Banner, In the
diary which she contributes to Die

official memorandum issued at Danzig ::
"The town deals in coal, babies
soothers, methylated spirits and petro-
leum, old clothes and wooden sOles |;
1t fattens pigs and geese and breeds
fowls and rabbits; ii cooks dinner and
supper every day for many thousands
of people II provides labor and horses,
distributes prizes for horse breeding,
and places orders for army supplies; it
estimates the harvest and counts the
cattle, extracts fat from bone, and
sells vegetables and fruit in certain
shops; II dries vegetables and makes
sausages; ii allots land for potato and
vegetable growing, and itself cultivntes
land; 1t collects or organizes the col
lection Of nettles and fruit stones; II
buys wood in Germany and in the oc-
cupied territory; 1t kills beasts and
makes Jam, examines applications for
leave from the front and provides the
farmers with manure; 1t revises the
prices of bread, matches, meat, boots
ana various foods, catches fish, and
supplies machinery; II collects copper
aluminium and brass and II distributes
sugar for jam making, and regulates
the feeding Of sick persons and ba-
bies."

Recently an American was showing
an English friend about the capital.
"Our government is very cconom-
ical," said the American. "When we've
an extra thick fog they suck it into Il
big cistern and convert 1t into paint
for buildings"
Really said the Britisher. Talk
ing about fogs reminds me that my
brother invented machine for COM
pressing fogs into bricks, and one thick
November day he turned out enough
material TO build n country house.
"Yes, he did. He moved into this
new house the next April, and was a
happy man for two weeks, until one
morning he found himself, also his
family, lying out on the cold, damp
ground in company with some bits OF
furniture and some miscellaneous join
cry. The house had gone, but 1t was
the thickest morning ever seen in those
parts. OF course, you can guess what
had happened. In the night those fog
bricks had somehow got back into theiI
original element.

Is little difficulty and less expense in
getting water that is pure or can be
made safe by boiling or filtering, and
that Is cheaper and safer than the
plain red wine of the country Every
American camp has its properly pro-
tected water supply. One of the most
pernlciOus halluclnatlons that has ever
struck men going over to France is
that they must change their habits,
their principles and their way Of think
ing, when they reach continental Eu-
rope. No man will be handicapped by
puritanical habits. Our men who have
been In France for months come back
robust and strong who have never
touched wine. Bishop Mcconnell and
others declare that this talk about the
necessity Of drinking wine is all tom
my rot. When Il man breaks from the
settled habits of his lifetime, drops
the standards that he has stood by,
whether it is wine drinking, cigarette
smoking, clean speech or stern stand
ards, he loses his grip on other men
as well as himself. No man can put
on religion as he puts on cloak in
