THE HELLO GIRL HEARS MUCH

The Kaiser called the Devil up
On the telephone one day.
The girl at Central listened to
All they had to say.
Hello" she heard the kaiser's voice
rs old man Satan home?
Just tell him this is Kaiser Bill
That wants him on the phone"
The devil said Hello" to Bill,
And Bill said, How are you?
I'm running here a hell on earth,
So tell me what to do.
The kaiser said, "Now listen"
And 1 will try to tell
The way that l am running
On earth a modern hell.
I've saved for this for many years,
And I've started out to kill,
That it will be modern job,
You leave to Kaiser Bill
My army went through Belgium,
Shooting women and children down
We tore up all her country,
And blew up all her towns.
My Zeps dropped bombs on cities,
Killing both old and young,
And those the Zeppelins didn't get,
We're taken out and hung
l started out for Paris,
With the aid of poisonous gas,
The Belgians, darn 'em stopped US,
And would net let us pass.
Ny submarines are devils,
Why, you should see them fight.
They so sneasling through the sea,
And sink ship at sight
was running things to suit me,
TIL year or so ago,
When man called Woodrow Wilson
Wrote me to go slow.
He said to me, Dear William,
We don't want to make you sore.
So be sure to tell your U-boats
To sink our ships no more.
We have told you for the last time,
So Bill, it's up to you,
And if you do not stop it,
You have got to fight US too.
i did not listen to him.
And he's coming after me,
With million Yankee soldiers
From their home across the sea-
Now that's why called you, Satan.
For want advice from you,
l knew that you would tell me
just what / ought to do.

There's not mr n for me to tell.

Than I can for you in hell

But not half as mean as you,
And the minute / get You here,

And I'll keep the fires albright,
And III have your room all ready.

LOOKING THEM OVER
tBy D. /. r.

After man came women and she's
been after him ever since
| According to Capper's Weekly there
will be no equal suffrage until women
have the right to propose marriage.
While we personally chime in with
the New Workers who enthusiastically
wish a long life for Colonel Roose-
welt we will also bet that some of
those same people will wish he was
dead before the war ends.
Which reminds rs that the Kansas
City Post will now be able to renew
its battle.
We sometimes wonder which one a
wife trusts the most. The man who
sins and tells his wife or the one who
doesn't and keeps mum.
One Fort Scott minister sums it nm
like this: 1T isn't question of how
much money a man has but of how
much man the money has.
1t appears that almost everything
has gone up, but writing paper has
remained stationary.
Isn't this so? No. matter how good
a person may be there is always some
one to swear they are the very incar-
nation of evil
We have decided Eve was the only
woman in the world who never turn
ed and looked back to see how the
other wonaans dress was trimmed.
A sinert but appropriate prayer. OF
Lord, bless this food which Providence
places before US and help US to. be
satisfied with what Hoover allows
US. Amen.

Consumer: 1.-The light was so poor

Someone has said that if our fore
sight was as good as our hindsight
we would all be rich. Yes, and the
suicide rate would suffer some in
crease too
The 1877 million dollars worth of
experience the United States derived
in her dealings with Russia should be
worth great deal.
We don't believe the combined
efforts of all the expert auditors in the
world could balance Germany's books.
Peace in a family of five, we have
decided, is another impossibility.
If there is anything in the old say
ing: ''the third tiaes a CHARM Texas
ought to get woman suffrage. This
being the third time the bill has came
up.
In as much as they all end alike
we don't see much distinction in a
love story.
The young Kansas Cityian, who
stole 500 worth of tobacco, explains
that he wished to show his girl a good
time. Well, girls do come high now
days but they are hardly worth that
much risk.

a SideIiuht.

I've talked with some of the infan-
try coming down here and they have
wonderful tales to tell. The French
are wildly enthusiastic over the Amer
icans-one French regiment passed
me going into action waving the Amer
lean flag.
Some time when I have time I'll sit
down and analyze the sensations
they're indelible-it'S sort of high
excitement that makes anything pos
sible. It's taken at least three hits
to stop any of our men. Generally
they keep on going, nevertheless, until
they can't go any farther-then shoot
from where they are until they're
picked off or the advance goes too far
ahead, and the litter bearers get them
and bring them in.-I'rom Letter of an
American Artillery Lieutenant, print
ed in Golfers Weekly.

So He Passed.

From France comes the following
little story of the irrepressible spirits
of the Australian fighting men:
Among the wounded brought into
the ward was a young Billiim whom
we knew at once was soon going west.
He was quite conscious, and an Aus
tralian sister set herself to make his
last few hours on this planet as
comfortable as possible. He wanted
ito be wrapped up with pillows, and to
do this the nurse said: 'Put your arms
5around my shoulders so, that | can
lraiSe you gently" 'You bet your life
sister," whispered the irrepressible lad
with a smile; "it's a long, long time
lsince I had my arms around a dinkum
