1t is wrong to intimate or say
that any man, because he has a
German name, is not as good and
loyal a citizen of this country as
any other man. Many of the
strongest patriots and most loyal
workers for Americas success
today are men and women of Ger
man names. They got those
names generations ago and have
become 100 per cent Americans
under them. They are and al
ways will be 100 per cent Ameri-
cans because they have no other
country and no other fealty. And
there are other 100 per cent
Americans among those who
came here to get rid of German
autocracy. We honor these as
much as anybody. But we all
like to see them come out in the
open and show their loyalty. 1t
looks and feels good to see them
with their shoulder to the wheel
of democracy's progress and of
humanity. They will be honored
and blessed by all the future
generations in this country.

ton of the principal FIVE breeds of

The ten highest milk producers of the
breed range from 25,329 to 1915
pounds Of milk and the average of
these ten highest producers is Fl 1888
pounds Of milk. The ten highest but
terfat producers among Ayrshires
range from 955.56 to 744.73 pounds,

Value Of a Good Lookout.

Speaking Of the value of a careful
lookout as protection against the
submarine, the first lord of the admir-
atty, Sir Eric Geddes, said that If a
submarine is sighted by the lookout
on a vessel-whether the vessel is
armed or not makes no difference-it
is seven to three on the ship in favor
of it's getting away. Out of every ten
attacks, when the submarine is sight
ed by the ship, seven Of them fail, but
of every ten attacks when the subma-
rine is not sighted eight ships go
down. In this connection we note that
Sir Alfred Yarrow offered, some
months ago, q monetary reward to the
first seaman on any merchant vessel
to detect the presence Of submarine.
In the case of the American destroyer,
recently sunk, it will be noted that
the presence Of submarine was not
known until the ship was torpedoed
Will some American offer a similar
bonus for the seamen on our ships?-

War Beer In Germany.

Reports from Berlin recently re
ceived in London show that the kaiser's
subjects are facing further reduction
in the supply of beer, says the New
York Times. The amount Of malt
available for brewing has just been
fixed, and, whereas the amount for the
last year was Is per cent of the peace
quota, the amosnt for the next year is
to be only 10 per cent in North Ger
many, and Is per cent In Bavaria.
When the requirements of the army
and of the munitions factories-which
in Germany get precedence-have
been met, there will be enough malt to
provide the civil population with about
one-third Of It's consumption in peace
time, but the beer is only the thin
'"war beer" The barley harvest In the
rest of Germany has been bad, and
there is now great increase in the
proportion Of barley that is used for
food.

WHEN MASEFIELD FIRST SANG
Author Of Many Songs as a Younqster
Often LuIied His Boss Baby
to Sleep.

In the hidden recesses Of Paradise
alley you may see service flag with,
one star. But how are you to see Para
disc alley? It is in Greenwich village.
The entrance is through a hole in the
wall in Sixth avenue, between Jeffer-,
son Market Jail and Eleventh street,
recalls writer in the New York Mail.
In Paradise alley there is a row of
quaint dwellings that seem to slant in
outrageous fashion. In fact, everything
in Paradise alley is strange to the point
Of queerness. But once within the alley
you forget the world and its hustle.
You are in land far away.
Around the corner from Paradise al
ley is Patchin place. If memory does
not serve i'll it was in this queer. back
water spot that John Masefield ate and
slept and rocked the cradle of man
child in the days when he tended bar"
In New York town. A queer lad was
John Manseaeld. A thousand songs
struggled for birth in his brain. The
world knows many Of these songs to-
day, for he ranks in the second flight
Of living poets. Is
But when John Masefield ''tended
bar" in Greenwich village and ate and
slept at the boss home in. Patchin
place, the only part of the public that
got the benefit of his poems was the
boss baby, for Masefeld, while he
waited for the boss wife to cook q
meal or 'set" the table, had to rock
the cradle and sing to keep the child
from raising the roof with his walls. +,
The babe never cried when John
Masefield sang. 1t is the testimony Of
that good wife of the boss that she
never could make head or tail out Of
the songs the queer youth sang-they
neither had rhyme, nor reason, nor
things that songs should have. They
were like chants, she says. - ~
But the baby seemed to make them
out, even if his mother couldt not.
Never wall came from him while
John Masefield sang.

VERMIN ATTRACTED BY FOOD
If No Scraps Are Around There Will
Be Little Trouble With Ants or
Reaches.

The surest way to keep house free
from ants is to leave no food lying
about on shelves or in open places,
where they can reach it. Ants go
where they find food, and if the food
supplies of the household are kept in
ant-proof metal containers or in ice
boxes. and if all foods that may hap
pen to be scattered by children or 9TH
ers is cleaned up promptly, the ant
nuisance will be slight. Cake. bread,
sugar, meat and like substances, are
especially attractive to the ants, and
should be kept from them.
Reaches will not frequent rooms
unless they find some available food
material. and if such materials can
be kept from living rooms and offices
or scrupulous care exercised to see
that no such material is placed in
drawers where it can leave an attrac-
tive odor or fragments of food, the
roach nuisance can be largely restrict
ed to places where food necessarily
must be kept.

Queen Victoria's Error Must Have

Sometimes when q great parsonage

at Windsor castle. When the musician
was at the piano her majesty said:

Mascagni played the Intermezzo.

Mascagni played the Prelude.

Mascagni played the dramatic Duet.

said, and hummed a few measures.
