DETROIT. Nov. 1. - Serving the
kaiser as personal bodyguard Is not
all sauer.brauten and lager Even in
the DAYS OF plenty, the royal body

loaf Of black bread, beans and black
coffee daily. s
The kaiser's birthday was an event
eagerly anticipated, for that meant

Wenta said the kaiser was ready
for war in 1910, when the soldiers OF
the German empire were fitted out
with new field gray uniforms and mod
ern weapons. Something went wrong,
Tor soon after the soldiers got back
their peacetime uniforms. Wenta said
The kaiser realized his guards didn't
love him any too well. and always
had other guards guarding the royal
guards.
Officers had playful habits of kick
Ing the common soldiers at the least
provocation, indirectly robbing them,
getting them up at all hours OF the
night, and in general conducting them
selves like true disciples Of kultur.
Wenta esteems the kaiser and kul

Loss Of ship tonnage through U-boa destruction and
marine risk, In 1917, 6723693 tons
Worlds output Of tonnage in 1917 27O3355 tons
The net average monthly loss was 335O22 tons.
Great Britain and America have Just taken over
million tons Of Dutch shipping This tonnage at the
1917 average Of loss will last Just about three months
The nrst year OF American shpbulding for war pur-
poses Is expected to turn out 100000 tons, or. on
monthly average just about the the average
losses Of 1917 Besides there will be the new tonnage
turned out by Great Britain and others Of the anti
