self, I thought the Germans would not
fire the bombs until the last minute,
and that we would have q chance at
the boats before they got all Of us
anyway. There were only thirteen
German sailors ON board, besides their
commander. This last Hun was
named Badewitz.
So the paci1sts ruled, because we
could not do anything unless We were
all together. and there was no mutiny.
They said we were hotheads, the rest
Of us, but still think we could have
made dash for it and overpowered
our sentries. and either gone over the
side with the lifeboats, or taken over
the whole ship. 1t would have been
better for us If we had tried. and If
the pacifists had known what was
coming to us they would have fired
the time bombs themselves rather
than 60 on into that future. How
ever, that Is split milk.
We were not allowed to open. the
portfolios while we were in the bunk
ers, under penalty of death, and there
In the dark, In that sinking air, it is
no wonder many Of us went crazy.
Among us was fellow named Har-
rington. about six feet tall and weigh
Ing $50 pounds. He seemed to be all
right mentally. but some Of US
thought afterwards he was crazy.
Anyway, do not blame him for what
he did. Harrington rushed up the
tiddley and opened the door. There
was Il German sentry there. and Har-
rington made swing at him and then
grabbed his bayonet The sentry
yelled and some others came down
from the bridge and shot Harrington
through the hand. After they had
beaten Harrington pretty badly, the
bull Of the bunch, Badewitz himself,
came over and hammered Harrington
all around the deck. Then they put
him In irons and took him to the chart
room.

to the military supremacy Of the Ger

against the Austrians and were tenn

Dear Mrs. Thompson: | am
girl % years old and have been
going with a young man who 10
25 wears old, for a year and a half.
We have lovd each other dearly
and have never had d quarrel
Last December he wrote me a let
ter and said he would have to tell
me something he hated above all
things to do, and that was that for
our future benefit he would have
to give me up for reasons he would
rather not mention. He said he
wasn't giving me up for any other
girl because he had never been
with any other one during all that
time. But he said he never could
be any more than a friend to me,
and always wanted me TO be the
same. And he said if the time
ever came when he could be more
than a friend to me and l still
thought the same, he'd come back
to me. Last April he enlisted. We
were the very best of friends When
he left for camp. He has written
me every week he has been there.
OF course his letters are more
distant. and not as loving as they
used to be.
Now Mrs. Thompson do you think
he gave me up because he didn't
love me? He always told me he
loved me next to his mother and
could never love any other. Do
YOU think he meant all he said? Do
you think I believed in him too
much? 1 went to reader once
and she told me his mother caa'c
between us. Yet, she always treat
ed me nicely and invited me 70
their home every two weeks. Do
YOU think what the reader said
could be true. Is there any way
can win him back, as l love nc
other man like l do this one. He
came home recently on a 4S-houI

were games, music and contests in
which the favors were won by Miss
