SHOOTING DOCTORS.

1t has been decided that the surgeons
and stretcher-bearcrs of the American
army shall no longer wear tho rcd and
"hlte hrassard which indicates tboir
non-eombataut character. The reason
Is easily Guessed. The humanitarian
symbol makes too good target for
Hun marksmcn.
1t is established beyond doubt =,
SAYS the New York san, "that Ger.
man sirarpshootcrs have been decorated
for hitting the noncombatants engaged
IN aiding the wounded"
There is no question of the fact that
The shooting of men engaged solely in
the work Of mercy has become a com
mon practice on the part of German
troops. A captured German officer is
said to have confessed that the medi.
cal men of the American forces have
been marked for death.
It S all a matter of Prussian Of
hciency. As the officer explained. the
nun leaders figure that the death of
one army surgeon equals the loss Of
500 soldiers and strctcher-bearcr
counts as much as l6 infantrymcn. It's
economy of ammunition and effort
then, to kill these men instead of fight
crs.
And this may help to explain wbv
German gunncrs fire on Red Cross am
balances and why Germans bomb mil.
itary hospitals and torpedo hospital
ships. Very likely it ism t the wounded
soldiers they want to kill; its the
doctors and their helpers. The military
value of a nurse isn't expressly givcn
but slain Red Cross nurse is prob.
ably recEoned, in Prussian arithmetic
as equivalent to at least 90 or 30 FIGHT
ing men killed.
In this, as in everything else involv.
ing question of fairness, Justice. man
Illness and dcceney, the Prussian over
lords reckon wrong. They cannot see
that outside of Germany there is \
different set Of morals, and different
system of military arithmetic. For
every doctor or nurse or strctchcr-
bearer shot down by treachcrous foe.
n thousand men rush to arms. And so.
IN this matter, as in all others, Prus-
sianism invites its own doom.

ground in the early spring
They We're of different colors. pur
pie, blue, white, yellow and orange
and how bright and cheerful they did
look for it was still somewhat chilly.
We're glad to see YOU" said the
fairies, and we know the children
and grownups are too"
The fairies always got up very early
IN the morning and they welcomed
every flower as it came out. The sun
smiled and beamed too and said
Hello flowers, how are you? I'll give
you little warmth"
Of course the sun was so high m
and the flowers so near the ground
that they couldn't talk very Weir I'd
dear old Mr.. Sun, but they were fond
OF him for being so good to them and
keeping them fine and warm.
1t was not long after this that the
fairies were in this same garden early
one morning when they saw some of
the other spring flowers.
why here are some lovely hva-
cinths," they said. Nice purple bva-
cinths and pink ones too-white and
lavender ones as well. How fragrant
you are, dear, lovely hyacinths."
And the hyacinths whispered to the
fairies how they loved the world and
fairies and children and that was the
reason they We're so sweet. They sim
ply couldn't help being anything else.
There were the beautiful, bright tu-
lips, too. How gay and jolly and happy
they were. They were wearing their
brightest colors. Some wore dark red
and how handsome they were
Others wore bright orange and some
wore yellow. Still others wore beauti-
full pink and some wore mixtures of
colors. Were bright because we're
so happy" they said.
The daffodils, so yellow and cheer
full came along next and the narcissus
flowers were just as sweet as ever.
It's wonderful to see the different
flowers come out" the fairies said.
Just then lilac bud burst into
bloom. Hello fairies" it said. And
the other lilacs were out in a very few
days after this.
We'll tell you story" said the
white lilac bush While the purple and
Persian lilac bushes listened as did the
garden flowers
Wed like to hear a story" the
fairies said.

They all are about in the same part of
the parade. And when they come we
appear too, as well as the Towering al
mond shrubs and many others.
But the pansies, little daisies and
garden violets blossom all through the
season, so they're like the small bows
who run along by the side of the m
rade-almost anywhere, at any time.
AND after We go the flowers will
still keep on parading. The nlies-of-
