SECRET
 POLICE METHODS

In dealing with the Czecho Slovak populace the Imperial secret police have perfected wholesale method unsurpassed in the annals of tyranny.
 A girl of Brunn, aged 20, who had served as @ nurse since the opening months of the war, received from one of her patients in the hospital-a wounded Croatian guuner-a copy of the Russian revolutionary proclama- tion to the dominated Austrian na- tionalities. She inclosed it in letter to her uncle, for which highly trea- sonable act she was arrested and Sen- fenced to death. The uncle had cop jed the proclamation into his note book and later he read it to a friend, for which he, too, was sentenced to death. This friend to whom he had . confded it had been permitted to make himself 8 copy after promising to distribute it no further. But break ing this promise, he proceeded to make three copies. For passing them on he was convicted of high treason and executed like the others.
 His copies reached three friends, one a school director of Brunn and an ardent Bohemian Nationalist. When arrested and searched his copy was found and brought him a death sentence The two other friends were given prison sentences of four and seven years respectively. The indus try of the police persisted until the young nurses copy and it's copies had netted S9 convictions out of 42 ac- cused. These convictions included six death sentences uncommuted, one commuted, and a further total of 91 years of imprisonment. - Richard Winner Rowan in the Worlds Work for March.

OUR KIND OF A MAN
fJames Mhltcomb RlIeY.l

DANES Whacom5 Ruey.9
The Kind of a man for You and me!
He faces the world unflinchingly
And smites, as long as the wrong resists,
fists;
He lives the life he is preaching of,
And loves where most is the need of love;
His voice%is clear to the dead mans ears,
mans tears:
The light shines out where the clouds
were dim,
And the widows prayer goes up for him;
The latch is clicked at the howell door
And the sick man sees the sun once
And out Ger the barren fields he sees
Springing blossoms and waving trees
Feeling as only the dying may
That Gods own servant has come that
way,
Smoothing the path as it still winds on
Through the golden gate where his loved
have gone.
The kind of man for me and you'll
However little of worth we do
He credits full, and abides in trust
That time viii teach us how more lis just.
He walks abroad. and he meess all kinds
Of querulOus and unseasy minds.
And sympathizing, he shares the pain
OF the Doubts that rack us. heart and
brain;
And, knowing this. as we grasp his hand,
We are surely coming to understand!
He looks ON sin with plying eyes
Fen as the Lord, since Paradise
Elise, should we read, Though our sins
should glow
AS scarlet, they shall be white as snow?-
And feeling still. with a grief half glad,
That the bad are as good as the good are
bad.
He strikes straight out for the Right
and he
Is the kind of man for you and me!

BEFORE IT is TOO LATE

II you have a gray-haired mother,
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write a letter,
Don't put sit off a day
Never wait until her tired steps
Reach heavens golden gate,
Just show that you think OF her
Before it is too late.
If you've a tender message.
Or a loving word to say,
Don't wait until you forget it,
But whisper it today.
No doubt she is thinking
That you are in an awful fate,
just send her q word of kindness
Before it is too late.
The tender word unspolen,
The letter never sent
The long forgotten message,
The wealth of love unspent;
For these some hearts are breaking
For these some loved ones wait.
o. show them that you care for them
Before it is too late.

TO THE BOYS OF AMERICA

4Llnes written by John Jones, a G.. A.
r. veteran, now residing in Wales,
one of the 1890 Engfneers)
The true born SONS of America,
Have heard the anguished cry,
OF those distressed people,
Who are under Europe,s skies.
Who have dared to oppose the kaiser
And his mailed iron hand.
For this they have to suffer,
In their own dear native land.
He has trampled on poor Poland,
And brave Belgium he has despoiled,
Also little Serbia, who was true and
brave,
With gallant, true Rumania,
Have suffered the same fate
But, John Bun and Uncle Sammy,
With the gallant lads of France,
Will claim a day of reckoning
And make the Huns to dance.
Although the Russian traitors,
Have sued for a separate peace
This will not cause us to falter
When we get face to face.
We will fight our way to Berlin
And teach the German Huns
That We respect all scraps of paper
In the land Of Uncle Sam.
John Pershing will be thereabeuts,
With his Yankee. Doodle docs,
10 teach the kaisers junkers
That they are no bugaboos,
But regular Yankee soldiers,
Who have come there to fight
For the honor of their country
And the glorious stars and stripes.
Now then you lads of Pennsylvania,
Who are training for the fight,
Remember that your emblem
Is the glorious stars and stripes,
1t has flown in many battles
And has never yet been stained
Although in many actions
On land and ocean main.
Now the North and South united,
Defend the dear old flag.
I feel proud to see it flying
For cause that's just and glorious.
When you come home victorious
From this most cruel war
The girls and wives of Yankee Land
Win shout with smiles IIurrah."

u. S. AND THE KAISER

Oh, the Kaiser had an army
OF most eight million men,
He marched them into Belgium
And for Paris then they ran,
And they met Ola Father Joffre
And he chased them back again,
And he went marching ON.
CHORUS:
Glory, Glory Halleuja. etc.
Well. the French said to the British.
We. will give you our best thanks
If you'll come over and help as
With your fighters and your tanks;
And the British said, well do 1t and
Wen whip those German cranizs
And wen go marching on.
CHORUS:
The Germans tackled italy
Upon the mountains high,-
The Dagos almost drowned them
With the waters of the sky
Now Kaiser Bill is finding out
That he's no real rough guy
AS goes marching on.
CHORUS:
Then they started in an argument
With our Old Uncle Sam
He said. I'm not prepared but,
I will do the best I can, SO.
He called out an army
OF the strongest of his men
And we go marching on
CHORUS:
And when he called upon us, why.
Ten million strong we came,
And Wen never stop until
We see Berlin again,
And We'H send the Kaiser back
Into the Home for the Insane.

THE IRISH KAISER

When the war is over, comrade,
You can take tip from me:
There'll be no German submarines
Driving through the sea.
In Germany there's Kaiser Bill,
The one we're going to lick;
And We'll have a brand new Kaiser,
And the same will be a Mick
Wen change the song of wacht am
Rhein,
To a lively Irish reel,
And Wen make the Kaiser dance it
Aay time We. feel.
For the police force in Berlin,

When we put the Irish Kaiser
In the palace over there
In every German pathway
You'll find q sweet Colleen,
On every plate of sauer kraut
Wen place shamrock green.
No liverwurst or sausage
When the German drinks his suds;
He'll get corned beef and cabbage
And good old Irish spuds.
The heathen's guns and gas bombs
We will throw them all away;
And make them use ShillalalahS
And bricks of Irish clay.
They'll wear no iron crosses
For it's shamroczs they will wear;
When we put the Irish Kaiser
In the palace over there.
