my Four Years in Germany"

To Judge by the enthusiasm of last
nights audience at the opening of
my Four Years in Germany" dram
atized from Ambassador Gerard's
book, the film is going to be a sue
cess. 1t wes an enjoyable experience
to be at the Knickerbocker for the
opening, just to participate in the
patriotic demonstration if for no
other reason.
A great deal of skill is used in
presenting the episodes from Mr..
Gerard's experience during his four
years as Ambassador to Germany.
The real emotional appeal of the
piece comes after scene in which
Mr.: Gerard gets his passports and
Won Jagow says sneeringly: well,
America won't fight anyhow" Then
a number of scenes telling of Amer
ica's participation in the war are
shown as an answer to Germany's
sneer. Last nights audience show
ed a high pitch of enthusiasm. Men
and women clapped their hands until
they were sore and shouted until
their throats were hoarse.-New

FIND HUN PROPAGANDA
THAT IS 81 YEARS OLD
Hickman Germans Wanted to Elk
tend Teuton Influence.

Hickman, KY, May 12.-The dec,
laration made in tho United States
Senate week ago that pan-Ger-
manism and the extension of the in.
sidious Teuton propaganda to this
country had its inception 40 years
ago. has been borne out by the find
ing of documents written in the Ger.
man language and which were placed
in the cornerstone of q Hickman
school when it was built in 1867
81 years ago.
Thus it appears that the Teuton
plan of world conquest began with
the first of the Wilhelms-before
Frederick and before William II.
assembled to the throne.
The letter carrying the hope of ex-
tension of the German language and
influence was unearthed when work
ers dug out the cornerstone while
excavating for the foundation of the
new Christian Church which is be-
ing built.
In sealed tin box containing a
number Of coins, a copy of the Hick-
man Courier of September, 1867, the
document written in the German Ian
guage was found. All of the articles
were we'll preserved. The letter has
been translated and reads:
Hickman, KY, Sept. 16, 1857.
"The first German School Asso-
citation has directed. that the names
of all the members, who were the
first German settlers in Hickman,
KY, be included in the following: to
make known to their descendants the
reasons for the first German school,
to be testimonial for their love of
Germany; to extend the use of the
German language in America, be-
lieving that their efforts will some
time be appreciated by their chill
dren and grandchildren.
"The Germans and their language
have an important influence at this
time and we hope it will firmly en-
dure and increase. We give thanks
to the citizens and friends for their
kind contributions and support
Without such support we could
scarcely have built the house."
Then followed the names of the
Germans participating, giving 81
in all, and continued:
7'This document will be placed in
the walls in the name of tho associa-
ton together with the current issue
of the local newspaper. The above
names and all of this respectfully
written by me-Carl Margraff."
OF the above list of names men
toned in the letter, there are only
two living, stanch American citi-
zens, many of those listed in the
above dying of the yellow fever here
in 1878.
The hope expressed in the docu-
ment at the cornerstone laying has
never been realized and it is doubt
full if any of the descendants of those
listed can speak the German Ian
guage at all. The DESCENDANTS liv-
ing here do not possess the regard
for Germany which was recorded by
their forefathers.
This building, under which this
document was buried, was used as a
school for many years and later as a
Lutheran Church, and then as a
Christian Church until three years
ago, when it burned, but this docu-
nent had reposed there for over half
4 century entirely forgotten, and but
for the excavation for the new
church, would possibly have never
been found.

Red Cross Speaking at Troy.

Quite a number of citizens from
Union City met with the people of
Troy at the A. r. P. Church last Fri
day night to hear some addresses on
Red eros work, as a preliminary step
to the coming campaign which be-
gins Monday, May 20, and for which
a meeting is to be held in Union City
Sunday, May 10.
Present at the meeting were Judge
Joe E. Jones. Gen. Thos. o. Morris,
DR.. w. NJ. Turner and Rev. w. B.
Cunningham, who occupied the ros-
trum. Hon. c. P. Wilson, of Troy,
announced the meeting and intro
duced the speakers. Invocation was
offered by Rev. w. B. Cunningham.
There was a liberal attendance.
Gen. Morris was introduced first,
and he proceeded with what Judge
Jones termed the greatest effort he
had ever heard from the Attorney
General.
He reviewed the work of the
American Red Cross and it's army
work, especially it's connection with
the present conflict in Europe. Like
an angel of mercy it is spreading it's
great white wings all over the strick-
en- territory. 1t is the only organi-
cation in the world recognized and
respected by every flag. The Red
Cross is American by birth and in
ception. 1t is equipped for its mis-
sion Of mercy by American means
and support, and in this way Ameri-
can citizens are doing their bit to-
wards first aid to the sick and wound
cd while also sending their soldiers
to the front.
Many q sick and wounded soldier
has blessed the name of the Red
Cross. And who is it that does not
feel like contributing to the support
of this institution.
Judge Jones was introduced by Mr.
Wilson and while he made shorter
speech than usual it was really one
of the most inspiring we have ever
heard him make. The fact is the
Judges heart was in his every word.
His patriotism is strengthened and
intensified by the fact that his
youngest son is in France. Lieut..
Herbert Jones was wounded in a gas
attack and for twenty-eight days
after the reports that he was slightly
wounded no news was received at
Dresden by his parents. Finally a
letter was received that he had been
overcome with gas and that he had
been sent to the south of France to
recuperate and was gradually re-
covering. But the suspense and
doubt in the minds of his mother
and father was distressing. The
Judge related this to the audience
and then appealed to it's sense of
patriotism in the work the Red Cross
is doing for his son and for the sons
of many American mothers and
fathers, as we'll as for the sons of
the Allied nations of Europe.
This campaign needs our support |
and the American citizen will re-
spond cheerfully, literally and |
The goal of $780,
100000 will be forthcoming and |
Obion County will be among those
who have gone over the top.
