Germany's efforts TO choke on
American relief for European neutrals
by ruthless summarizing OF neutral

ample justification for the requisition-

International law fully permits this

Germany Is carrying on q deliberate

Mascaani and the War.

Pietro Mascagni, the celebrated COM
poser, once told how the opening
chorus of "Cavaleria" was composed
on the night of February 3, 1889, when
his first child was born. That son,
Mimi, is now, or was recently, driving
motor-truck for the Italian army;
and second boy, Dino, became q pri-
vate in the engineer corps, blowing up
Austrian barbed-wire barbados. On
a visit to the young soldiers Mascagni
saw his first battle.

! W 4 ] / ]! OF c Ns TANT' BRAY
spaniards Make Offer 10 Exchange
Mules for Something That Has
More Musical Sound.

q little while ago It was reputed
that the army mule in France, inval-
liable for transport, was making him-
self obnoxious by his propensity to
bray when In close proximity to the
enemy. And now, according to adj
vices received by the National Piano
Manufacturers association, the Span
iards are anxious to dispose Of their
mules to us and to obtain in return
pianos and other musical instruments.
Evidently what Wordsworth calls
THE hard, dry see-saw Of his horrible
bray is no better relished by the
esthetic consciousness of the Iberfans
than by the valorous gentlemen Of
France. It is doubtful whether even
an implacable futurist in music like
Leo Ornstein or Arnold Schoenberg
derives genuine satisfaction from the
student cantatas and blatant oratorios
Of the mule. Some cynics have de-
tected resemblance between the.
voice Of the bagpipe and the mules
spontaneous lyricism, but this is a
libel.
With patience one can detect a
definite melody in the Scotch pibrochs
and strathspreys, whereas mule music
like the world in the making, is with
out form and void. AS long as Spain
is not at war she can afford to dance
the fandango and play the mandolin.
When by the logic Of events she is
swept out of her neutrality into bel
ligerency and has to haul cannon and
wagons, she will wish she had the
mule. Philadelphia Ledger.

What do our loyal citizens think Of
the man who was seen reading copy
Of the German language paper, Ger
mania, in the postoffice lobby and con-
spicuously displaying it to the people
getting their mail? Ignorance is no
excuse in this instance, and in some
places we could mention the tar and
feathers would have been forthcoming
and the fellow who dared faunt this
German rag have gone to his home
or out Of town on a rail looking some
what like an ostrich which had gone
through barrage.

Don Evans, Carl Ness and others,
having tried their skill in bee tanning
with disastrous effects on Elmer Ear
ley's farm, Herb Anderson decided to
test out his success at the game. Sc
he went forth with a face mask and
rubber gloves to interview the honey
makers. While these appliances
proved to be impervious to bee attacks,
Herbs pants did not afford any pro-
lection whatsoever, and in consequence
he was compelled to stand for several
days when eating his meals.

A letter was received last week by
Swan Peterson from his son, Gerald,
who is in the ambulance service in
France. This was the first commune

life Of an ambulance driver at the

under shell fire for five and half
days but he was fortunate in pulling
