Sees German
Fleet Surrender

Carroll Whalen. seaman on the u. S.
S. New York. which has been sta
toned with the American battleship
squadron in foreign waters since jan
uary. 1918, wrote to home folks on
November 21 the day of the surrender
of the German navy to the ritish.
He wrote from Dumferiine. Scotland,
and the letter is here given in part 20
let his friends know what a part our
fleet has been doing:
"The censorship was lifted this
morning. and now can tel! you a lot
of things couldn't tell before. Since
coming here we have been stationed
at the Orkney Islands. and the Firth
of Forth. but come of the time we have
been over around Skagerack and Kat
tegat. Since we have been here we
have been called the sixth battle
squadron of the British grand fleet.
1.-THE first four ships that came over
were the New York. Wyoming. Florida
and Delaware. Then the Texas came.
and in June the Arkansas came over
to relieve the Delaware. The COM
mander is Admiral Hugh Rodman and
the New York is his flagship.
I'VE have not had much liberty on
shore except when We were in dry
dock. We were at Newcastle. Eng
land. last spring for IA days. and about
two months ago we were In Dumber
line for week. The feet was under
four hours notice at that time, so all
the liberty we got was four hours. so
we could hear the recall at any time.
Twice month we could go to Edin-
burgh from IL O'Clock to 6.
Three weeks ago came back from
10-days' leave. I was going to
Dover, England. and had got as far as
Newcastle. when all travelling was sus-
pended except troop trains. on account
OF the influenza 1 had to stay there
the rest of my leave. and eight days
over. and the British government took
care of US until we could return TO the
ships.
"You should have seen the grand
feet the night of the signing of the
armistice. A place twice the size OF
New York would not have held us il
we could have been turned loose. If
could tell you all 1 want to. il would
take the rest of the cruise. but to make
long story short. we met the Ger
man fleet today. When the grand feet
is out. there are ships for 10 miles
on each side of US. but today wish
you could have seen all those ships
together At 8 o'clock this morning
we got under way. and met the Ger
mans at $3.50. At 2:30 this afternoon
the commander-in-chief of the German
high seas feet surrendered to Admiral
Sir David Beatty. in command OF the
British grand feet. on board the flag
ship Queen Elizabeth.
"On December 1. after a visit and
farewell speech of appreciation 10 the
squadron from Admiral Beatty, they
went to Portland to be detached from
the grand fleet. They then came out
to meet President Wilson and escort
him to France. and are now on their
way home. where some OF the boys will
be mustered out of the service. and
others who entered the navy before
the war will spend their furloughs at
home during the holidays.

VERY year about the mid
die of November small
sign appeared over the
door OF the Thomas cot
tage which bore the
legend. "The Evergreen Shop"
Every year during the Christmas
season Ruth Thomas made hundreds
Of evergreen wreaths, which she sold
fer Christmas decorations
This was why the people of Briefly
cn1led her the evergreen girl.
The day before Christmas Ruth sat
In her little shop finishing the last
wreath she would make that season.
''There," she said, deftly twisting a
sprig of brigh. red berries among the
evergreen stems, "that finishes Helen
Stanwood's order, and thank goodness
it's done in time. Oh, dear ~ she sighed.
laying the wreath aside, II do wish
could spend one Christmas time en-
'jcying myself as others do. Why. there
has not been anyone here over the holi-

Dane Stanwood had taken her to
that party. Once during the evening
he caught her as she was standing
under the mistletoe bough, and
The sudden roar of high-power auto

and she looked out in time to see a
long blue roadster flash past the gate.
The car belonged to Dane Stanwood.
Shortly after the Christmas party at
Dolly Blair's Dane had gone West to
become mining engineer. He had
written few times TO Ruth and then

she had no. heard from him for nearly
four years. Then, just a month ago,

the commissioner believes she must
be guaranteed the return of this ma
chinery, else her commercial life is
ruined for years, for as M. de Billy
says, German factories at this mo-
ment are prepared, to start anew for
the trade conquest of the world, and
will begin the minute peace comes.
France cannot get her industries back
to what they were in 1913 within
the next two or three years, even with
the help of the United States. -
That's whyI France is going to in.
