Stupid ProcIamations Of German Com

Among BeIgians-Says Stories
of Atrocities Are All True.

New York.-Up to the entrance of
the United States in the war against
Germany, approximately $1,000 Bel
gian civilians had been shot, taken
into Germany as prisoners, or fined for
offending the German authorities in
Belgium in various ways, according to
Hugh Gibson, former secretary of the
American legation at Brussels and at
present chief of the division of foreign
intelligence Of the state department,
described with many poignant details
the sufferings Of the Belgians and the
irrepressible and buoyant spirit of the
people, which, he said, has not been
quenched by the Teuton invaders.
The stupid proclamations of the Ger
man commandments posted daily and
oftener on the buildings and bOardings
of the streets of Belgian cities caused
the population considerable amuse-
ment at first. Mr.. Gibson said, until
it was announced from German head
quarters that any one seen laughing
around an official bulletin would be Sc
verely punished. Thereafter persons
reading the bulletins would muffle
themselves up in neckcloths that con-
cealed half their faces and laugh to
themselves.
All the Belgian newspapers were
suppressed, and the population re-
ceived it's news from publications is
sued by the Germans, which told OF
their military victories, Mr.. Gibson de
clared.

more potatoes is the eating Of less

suggestion when one remembers that
both of them are used as a source of
starch in the diet. This reduction in

SHOULD EAT MORE POTATOES

need of grain for shipment to our SOL
diers and to the soldiers and civilians
of other countries engaged with us in
the war against Germany.
The use of more potatoes for lunch
con should be a simple matter, in the
opinion Of specialists of the depart
ment of agriculture. since practically
all Americans like potatoes and since
there are numerous ways in which the
tubers may be prepared to avoid a
sameness in the diet. Potatoes, even
in their simplest fOrms-baked and
boiled-make good luncheon dishes.
They may also be used for making a
variety of dishes, such as creamed
and escallOped potatoes, with or with
out cheese; stuffed potatoes, potato
crOquettes, and so on. Combination
dishes, such as hash. stews, meat pies
with potato crust, and so on, in which
a considerable amount of potato Is
used with other foods, may constitute
practically an entire luncheon, being
hearty enough to serve for the purpose
with little salad or fruit or sweets.
