Albert became part Of the !lindenhurG
line and was occupied by the Germans for
nearly four years. During all this time
the Virgin remained in her leaning
position. The people OF the town came to
look upon the statue as an omen. They
believed that the war would end when tho
Virgin fell. but she must fall through no
effort Of theirs.
The townspeoplc watched the statue and
took care that none OF their own number
should move the supports or do anything
TO bring It down.
This Summer the Germans were driven

Why the fall of the pious emblem should

GERMAN SHOES MADE
WITH PAPER UPPERS

AMSTERDAM, April 17.-The new
German war boots and shoes, which
have recently been on display at a
public exhibition in Berlin. are thus
described by Vorwartz: Heavy.
clumsy boots, made out of all sorts of
substitute materials. with paper up
pers and wooden soles several cent?
meters in thickness the weight and
bulk Of them Is increased by huge
nails and protectors with which they
are studded. The price for these
monstrositles is enormously high.
While in peace times good durable
leather boots could he purchased at
about II marks. this war footwear for
children costs II marks, for women
% marks and for men "a marks.
Moreover the purchaser IS warned
that the soles of the aSTar boots win
only last seven or eight weeks. As
each wooden sole costs from to 6
marks to replace. each pair Of mems
boots will cost the wearer at least
40 marks every six months. Whether
the paper will keep out the cold and
wet Is more than doubtful

other countries. Moreover,
aside from the chemical indus
try, there is not a single large
industry in which we did not
excel Germany in time of peace.
In few minor industries she
has led the world, but the same
can be said of every country. In
the large industries, such as
agriculture, iron and steel, cop
per, the manufacture of auto
mobiles, etc, which ought to
figure largely in the winning of
a war, we have led the world in
time of peace.
But up to the present time
the Germans have succeeded in
more men on the firing
line and in keeping them bet
ter supplied with materials
than we and our allies have
succeeded in doing. There is
only one reason for this. The
Germans are not doing any
thing else except make war.
They are not dissipating their
energies. They are not vast
ing their man power in the pro-
duction of things not needed
for the war.

AWARD WAR CROSS
To UNKNOWN HERO

(By Henry Wood, United Press staff
Correspondent
WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES.
March 5.-(By mail)-To the Sew
enty-ninth French regiment of Infan-
try belongs the honor of the only ci-
tation in the present war to IAN Tn
known Soldier"
The Croix de Guerre. which the ci-
tation merited and which in view of
the hero's death. would ordinarily be
given by the French government to
the soldiers nearest relatives, lies un-
claimed at the Ministry of War at
Paris. All that is known of the man
is the manner Of his death and the
fact that he is buried where he fell
on the heights of Saint Epvre.
The story of this Unknown Sol
der is unquestionably the story of
thousands OF other French heroes in
the early days of the war before
means Of Identification of the dead
had been established and when regi-
ments were hurriedly formed, thrown
into action and decimated before a
soldier knew the name of the COM
-ade fighting at his side.

1T SHOULD BE FINAL

T HE view of long hard
W. war is the one to take
and it is well that our
government is moving with
this necessity in mind. 1t is
necessary to world peace and
safety that kaiserism not only
be checked but that it be
downed. The biggest blunder
of all would be to permit an
indecisive war. When whip
ped on the west front as he will
be the Hun will ask for peace
and to that end will be willing
to get out of Belgium and out
of France. He will be salts
fled if he is allowed to grab
what he wants in Russia and is
allowed to retain a militaristic
government so that prepara-
tions can be made for further
warfare when the Slays have
been assimilated to the extent
that Russian manpower can be
used as cannon fodder. The
allies cannot afford to make
peace on a basis that will re-
quire them to go armed to the
teeth forever afterwards. Bet
ter to fight it out now once and
for all, fully ending the pratt
cal German theory that only
might makes right and that
covenants of honor are scraps
of paper"
