One man-and l think he was the

But the interest In these little games
was as keen as II the stakes had been
piles of money instead OF two or three

ing ever did in my life I managed to
hoard two pieces Of bread (grudgingly
spared at the time from my daily ra'
tions), but was preparing for the day

It was not sacrifice easily made

ate pears until finally got one piece
of bread ahead; and when l could
force myself to stick to the pear diet
again, l saved the other piece from
that days allowance. and In days to
come had cause to credit myself fully
for the foresight.

Irishman With German
Ear Gets Inside Dope

IBY UNITED PRESS.
LINCOLN, NEB., April a.
Somewhere IN Nebraska" a few days
ago a county council OF defense mem
Der with an Irish name was sent TO
urge the managers of a German pa
rochiaI school to discontinue the use
and teaching Of the German lang
uage. He explained the matter to
the governing board who then retired
TO a corner Of the room to consult
They deuberated in German, which
the man with the irish name had no
reason TO understand. 1t happened,
however, that he did.
The discussion proceeded for some
time, when finally a very wealthy
German farmer of the neighborhood
said: "If we don't quit the German
I know what Will happen We viii be
called TO Lincoln by the state council
OF defense. We will have to pay
our own way and It viii cost each Of
us not cent less than $40"
Thereupon the gentleman Of the
irish name but German ear was In
formed in excellent English that the
church board was heart and soul with
the government and that there would
be no more German taught IN the
school.
