Taboo Them.
After this war is over, they ought
to be tabooed from all society and
believe me James, the German peo-
pie are composed Of the same metal
as their emperor and their military
clique. They are all worthy Of the
cord.
AS to Luxembourg, the greater por-
ton of the population favors the al
les, naturally ycu will find among
mans, but the minority, and even
they have changed their opinion
sincve the Germans lived with them.
The Germans have put their hands
on everything in the country,
land, factories, food, equipment. That
is to say, they oblige the Luxem-
burgoise to satisfy their wants first,
they must be served before the civil
population. Prices there have gone
up terribly and sometimes the bread
is scarce. in fact. some days there is
none at all.
In Paris we do not complain, there
arc few restrictions. but we really
do not suffer as yet. But things are
becoming more dangerous because
the Germans are approaching little
by little. We hope however that they
will not arrive at Paris. but one new
er knows. This war is full of sur
prises. We are returning home to-
morrow and will be governed by
the events. If things turn out badly
Frank will be obliged to move the
stock. Of merchandise to a country
town. Being one Of the three part

the responsibility on account of the
others being in the war he is anX-
ious that he should not be negligent
to his trust.
French Are Splendid.
With regard to the French, they
are simply splendid, above all the
soldiers. To have held out for three
years. almost four now, is wonderful
when one takes into consideration
that as rule the French are not
tenacious. The English usually have
a monopoly Of that quality but today
they must share it with the allies.
Certainly what keeps up the cour-
age of the French is the knowledge
that they are not alone in this great
struggle. They have unlimited con-
fidence in the British and the Am
orleans and are sure of victory. We
all hope that next year will see the
end of the torment.
Tomorrow, our holidays are finish
ed we return to Paris and begin
again our life of aIerts and bonn
bardments. Since the last offensive
the Germans have sometimes visited
Paris by aeroplane twice in the same
night, The danger is not great be-
cause we are warned in time, and
consequently can get down to the
cellar before the bombs begin to
fall. With the cannon it is differ
ent. because life and business must
go on as usual during the day. We
cannot remain in the cellar all day
long so have to run the risk of find
ing ourselves in the way of an obus.
The Irish Situation.
L. have not been in ireland since
mothers death. so have lost touch
with those whom I knew in nv
childhood. What a pity it is that
the Irish are so unreasonable re-
garding the war. cannot imagine
what their idea can be. 1t is ter
rible to think that our dear old coun-
try lis so far behind and that the
question of religion dominates ev-
erything else Don't you think they
might well leave these questions I'M
til after the war and help chase the
Germans and win the respect of 9TH
er nations
Perhaps. will have more to write
you on my return to Paris.
