made to nov to town, but it is nee
essary to say that she is perfectly
cOntented to stay in the old home now.
For all people who think seriously
about the future of the farm realize
the real necessity which confronts us,
Of holding our young folks on the
farm. Some one has calculated that
an average of at least five people are
drawn every year from the farms out
Of each of the Twenty-Five hundred
counties of the United States, making
nearly 5000 young folks and the older
workers that the farms lose each year.
1t may be our farmer thinks of
these things after the evening work
is done, when stretched out beside a
convenient electric lamp, now watches
his W daughter fitting about in the
brightly lighted home.
He will tell you, this farmer, that
the best investment he ever made was
in the little electric light and power
plant.
He will tell you that he gets cleo
tricity to furnish light n power for
his home, with heat for electric iron,
toaster, percolator and the like, for
about 5 cents a day. He will prob
ably give you some figures on the cost
of putting in an electric plant.
But he won't talk figures very long
before he gets to making a compari-
son between the conditions he would
have known had he moved to town
and the conditions in the home he has
in the country.
Then he will tell you, Il don't know
exactly how many dollars it has all
cost, though I suppose l could figure
it out, but I'll tell you if it costs ten
times as much I'd never begrudge a
cent of it, for it's easily worth anOth-
err ten times that to me and my fam
lily"

The Kaiser at Army Headquarters

The Kaiser at Army headquarters.
To what extent the kaiser is respon.
sible for the failures and entitled to
credit for the successes of his armies
in the present war, / am not in a po-
sition to say, but IL he did not actually
direct the military policy, ne at least
kept closely In touch with everything
that was going IN. From the very be-
ginning of hostilities ne lived the ma
jor part of the time at the great army
headquarters and was In constant con-
sultation with his military leaders.
! had several opportunities to see
the kaiser while he was at the various
great army headquarters.
In the spring of 1916 l received a
long-distance telephone message from
the great army headquarters. which
was then In the palace of the Prince
v0n Pless at Pless, to the effect that
the kaiser wanted me to 60 there.
During the course Of my work one
Of his private secretaries came in re
peatedly with kilograms and messages
for the kaiser, and he would usually
excuse himself and read them. Some
times he would be summoned outside
TO consult with important persons who
were there to see him. but he was
never gone more than ten minutes at q
time.
/ did not think he looked exception
ally well. He seemed to be very tired
and he had very little to say--in itself
m indication that he was not exactly
normal
When my work for the morning was
over and his valet, who had assisted
me-, had been excused, the kaiser
gaxed at me for = moment or two and
then, apropos Of nothing. burst out
With the rather remarkable announce.
ment: '.The mai who brought this
catastrophe on the world, Davis,

thing impressed me very much. For
the moment l was part Of the play
which was ever being made to i'm
press and awe those whom the kaiser
was pleased to refer to as my peo-
Pile" but whose appreciation means

rules by divine right"

The Kaiser as | Knew Him
for Fourteen Years
~@0
By ARTHUR N. DAVIS. D. L. S.
Copyright. 1918. by the Mcclure Newspaper syndicate)

Prince August Wilhelm, the fourth
son, was perhaps the most democratic
of them all. He sometimes came to
e me in an ordinary taxlcab and he
was the only one Of the kaiser's sons
whom i ever saw in civilian dress. He
was the first member Of the royal fam
lily to come to me after the murder
of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and
he was In mourning when he called.
He looked very sad and detected and
gave me the first intimation that the
tragedy of Sarajevo would almost in
evitably lead to a general war.
In January, 1913, in speaking Of the
part that America would take In the
war, he mentioned that his officers had
told him that 10000 Americans were
on the western front. 1--WE don't be-
lieve 1t, however," he added. "HOw
could they get there without our know
ing it2 Our U-boats would certainly
have found 1t out. No, Davis, it's not
true
Prince Joachim, the kalser's young
est son, and one of the last Of the
royal family to visit me, reminded me
very much Of his eldest brother, the
crown prince. He was tall and slender
and would have been goOd-looking but
for a retreating chin which was very
pronounced. He had as little respect
for public opinion as the crown prince,
and while the U-boat Deutschland was
on its way to America principally to
bring back a cargo of rubber, the sup
ply Of which was exhausted In Ger
many, this sixth sOn Of the kaiser was
driving around the country In a big
car and using up enormous rubber
tires, while rubber was worth It's
weight In gold and many cars for the
army were supplied with plain iron
wheels.
This prince was the only member Of
the royal family to get near enough
to the firing line to get shot. The In
jury, which he received while at the
western front. was only a slight flesh
wound Of the thigh, but 1t was enough
to start him limping through history.
1t was such a superficial wound that
1t couldn't have caused him one-half
as much pain as 1t gave the whole
royal family pleasure.
The fact that one Of the kaiser's
W son had actually been wounded
and shed his royal blood In active SER
vice was something that the inspired
press will never stop growing over,
but by just what accident the prince
happened to come within range of the
bullet has nev been disclosed. New
ertheless he received the Iron Cross of
the first class, or, as some one who
realized the significance of the incl
dent, remarked, "a first-class iron cross
for a second-class wound"
As he limped into my Office, the
young prince--he is now only twenty
eight--remarked: "See what one of
your damned American bullets did to
mel"
slow do you know 1t was an Amer
ican bulletw l asked.
'"The Russians have nothing else |"
] told him on one occasion that the
people were complaining Of the food
shortage.
"They have food enough" he an
swered. "The best thing they do is
to complaint Don't they complain In
America? The fact is they have too
much to eat, anyway. They don't know
what they want"

HOLIDAY MAIL HERE
BIGGEST in HISTORY
All Records Smashed-Twen.
ty-Gve Per Cent More Than
Highest Previous Season

Holiday mail records have been
smashed to smithereens at the Postoflce
this season.
An increase of nearly % per cent in
the amount of all classes of incoming
and outgoing mail through the Philadel-
phia Postofiices is the record for Christ
mas, 1918. And this increase is not an
increase over normal mail. but one that
surpasses by hat percentage the records
of any previous holiday season.
This statement was made by Assistant
Postmaster Lister. n was confirmed
and corroborated by Thomas p. johnson,
superintendent OF mails.
Regardless of the enormous amount
of mail that has been handled, we had
no congestion until this afternoon" de-
Clared Mr.. Lister, but in two or three
hours we had cleaned 1t out and order
was restored"
Mr.. Lister said that 400 extra men
had been added to he list of employees
in the Contra postoffiCe alone. Five
hundred of these are soldiers and sailors
about TO be discharged from the service.
MI. johnson was enthusiastic concern
ing the manner holiday mail has been
handled in Philadelphia this year.
at seems that the 1900 additional
mail carriers that have been detailed
for duty during the Christmas season
was adequate and has assured prompt
deliveries" said Mr.. johnson.

CITY EMPLOYEES GET
MONTH-END CHECKS
Payments in Excess of
100000 Made to Help
Spread Christmas Cheer

Nearly 10000 city n county en-
ployes are today receiving their month";
end pay checks. The sums range from
the big payments to Mayor Smith, Sheriff
Ransley and other heads to the semi
monthly pay of $60C apprentices and
cleaners. Payments will be made In ex-
cess of $4,000
Christmas this year find the average
municipal employe well able to meet the
holiday Expense because of he heavy
bonus payments exceeding a total of
500, 900 paid them a week ago. Coming
as II did between the two December pay
ments 1t left most with a balance most
unusual at this time.
The regular first pay in December
was distributed eight days age and
about the same time the half-year 10
per cent bonus authorized by Council
was paid to most of the 1854 bene-
~fieiaries under the system. The ex-
ception to the general payment was
some per diem men whose pay roll
estimate had not been completed.
Presents to departmental heads by
office forces was discouraged this year
because of adverse comment in the
past and in most cases employees were
only asked to contribute out of their
plenty a small sum for flowers, with
which City Hall was well filled today.
The last of the yearly payments Is
being made by Controller Walton In
accordance with resolutions passed by
Councils yesterday.
