AMSTERDAM, April a. - George
Michaelis, ex-Imperial Chancellor, on
leaving to assume his post of President
Of Pomerania, made an address at Bcr-
lin. He said:
III were ever responsible again for
the government, | would decline to
ask war indemnity Rather than see
our people throw itself into the abyss
Of materialism, which would be the
case if our war expenditures were de-
frayed by our enemies, we must teach
our people to become simple, sober and
economical
"Our time of trial will not end with
the termination Of the war. Our mis-
cry will continue We must bear it
with out murmuring. Poverty will be
our cook. We must admit we too, are
guilty for this war, not in a political
sense, for the Emperor tried to main
tain peace to the last minute, but cir
cumstances have brought US trials
which threaten to make money the
master of the day. We must save the
country from a surrender to material

with the commissioners of education

"Questlons and information Or the

vantage of the interest thus aroused.
principals and teachers should invite
the parents to patriotic meetings in

AS the pupils should have for their

come from source from which little

the report, a member Of the Russian
government points out that the chances
Tor peace are greater since Germanv's
reply regarding territory in the
Ukraine offers ground for negotiations
and an understanding on the terri

1t seems the Rada is willing to make
concessions and to modify its original
demands, which included part Of the

Circus arade Here
Wednesday for Loan
Barnum & Bailey Get First Per-
nit in Thirty Years

Kids living in New York all their
lives need no longer wall because their
homes are out OF the circus parade belt
Everything Will be made up next
Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock when
the first circus procession in about
thirty years is due. The precedent has
been broken in honor Of the Third Lib

New York has been deprived Of
parades these many years because Of
the havoc they make of traffic Even
the last one, thirty years ago, brought
such crowds, that business was sus-
pended along the line OF march for half
day. SO, no more parade permits
to clrcuses.
This time, however, an exception will
be made in favor of Barnum and
Balley's circus, because the parade is
TO be given to increase interest in the
thru Liberty Loan.
All the usual features of a circus
parade will be present-except the
steam calliope, this oldfashioned hor-
ror being replaced by mounted band
The elephants can be depended on to
do their bit and will wear their most
gorgeous trappings. Other animals, less
pacitist, will be conveyed in cages. The
clowns and their donkey carts will be
there, and there will be "beauty floats
and the Blood Sweating Behemoth" Of
mystery. The freaks and the Wild
West riders, acrobats, clowns and other
features of the circus have all promised
to get up early and be on hand when
the parade leaves Madison Square Gar
den.
The parade starts from the Garden,
proceeding to Fifth Avenue along
twenty seventh Street. 1t Will march
up Fifth Avenue as far as Fifty seventh
Street, across Fifty -seventh to Madison
Avenue and down Madison to the Gar
