Egg Gambling
Period In Force
To January Is

The state food administration has
announced that the Gambling period
for eggs will remain in force until
January is. According to the adj
ministration, many licensees are using
what is known as the flashing meth
cd" in the Gambling of eggs. This
method is the taking of two or more
eggs in each hand and waving or
flashing them before the candle. The
food administrators announce that
effective at once, it is expressly for
hidden to candle eggs in this man
ner, as this work is important enough
to require that each egg be candled
one at a time.

A soldier of the kaiser
Had stopped a bit for breath;
The air was full of cannon balls
And other sudden death.
The Germans were not winning,
AS far as he could see;
And blowing quite little bit,
He stepped behind tree.
He heard the roar and clatter
Of guns Of many types;
And far away upon a hill
He saw the Stars and Stripes.
1t looked like time for moving,
The same as he had done;
And turning tail upon the foe,
He started on the run.
II don't know what has happened,
He said as he resumed
''For all know the fatherland
And all Of us are doomed.
AS like as not Won Ludendorff
Has pulled some sort of bone;
But that is for the generals"
He muttered with a groan.

He rambled as he ran;

A simple fighting man.

What caused our present fight;
But who in hell was it that said

Red Cross Cares
For Thousands Of
Battle Refugees
Autos Work Night and Day
Removing Women and
Children

PARIS, March 26.-Thousands OF
refugees in towns and villages behind
the British lines are being removed by
the American Red Cross. Thirty auto
mobile transport vehicles have been
working virtually all night and day in
the period since the German offensive
began, bringing out the people, and the
transportation department here has or
dered all it's available cars to the Brit
ish front. Two thousand refugees al
ready have been brought to Paris by
the Red Cross and either provided with
shelter here or sent to the home of their
relatives or friends in neighboring
towns.
Red Cross autotrucks at the front
have been under shellfire. but no
casualties among the personnel have
been reported thus far.
The first large batch of refugees
reached Paris this morning. They were
mostly women, children and aged per-
sons who had been awakened by the Red
Cross workers in the early hours of
Monday morning. taken to the railroads
in the camions ana thence transported
TO faflS on Speclal tfalhs. lney "cIS
provided with warm food by the Red
Cross on the journey and fed likewise
at the cantecns of the organization in
Paris.
Most of the refugees were able to save
only a few of their belongings, which
w~re wrapped in shawls and bed sheets
or carried in baskets or handbags. One
woman eighty-one years old, carried
with her only basket of live chickens
and cried because she had been unable
to save two rabbits. Another woman
carried few cooking utensils under
J her arm.
Many of the women and children
were crying because they had been sep
arated from their relatives and friends.
Among the refugees are small children,
from a month to twelve years old, and
people who have reached the age Of
ninety.

terms Of the recent Spani sh- American
ter that Spain would cease to send
vessels to the United States and might
consider the recent agreement de-
rounced by the American government
II an attempt should be made to
rcquisition Spanish tonnage, as in the
instance of Dutch shipping.
In this connection it was said that
recently the Spanish Ambassador in
Washington asked the State Depart.
ment to explain the note of Ambas.

lsh government, advising the latter
that Immediately upon ratification of
the Spanish American agreement Span-
ish vessels would be free to depart
with their cargoes, inasmuch as Amer
lean port authorities continued to
detnin such vessels, Notwithstanding
that the agreement had been signed.
Under the agreement, General
