That Germany expected to occupy for a

the northern portion Of France, is
shown by the fact that the Hun mill.

all the important streets in the larger
towns which fell into their hands. There
Ia scarcely a village where a distinctly
German designation was not given to
a road or street.
Such names as Kaiser Wilhelm

entered these towns they took particu-
lar delight in destroying these signs
and replacing the original French mark
ings.
The Germans told the French inhahi-
tants of these towns that in future
France would be divided into two parts
North France, which would belong to
Germany, and South France, which the
French would be permitted to keep,
They put the inhabitants under severe
discipline and required them to stand
at attention and salute whenever one
@f their officers addressed them or
passed them on the street.
When the German officers entered
any of the homes, the whole family
was required to stand at attention until
they left, Breaches Of this order were
