Enemy Quickly Disappeared.

An official of railway which passes
through Philadelphia. I am told, was in
the habit of expressing his war senti-
ments without restraint to his private
secretary, Girard writes in the Phila-
delphia Ledger. These sentiments were
derogatory to the allies and favorable
to Germany. One day at the end of a
particularly vehement TRADE the Sec
rotary said: II trust, sir, that what
you have said does not represent your
real feelings on the subject" 81 mean
every word of it," said his employer. 1t
was just after d fire had taken place
in a nearby city and the responsibility
had been laid at the doors of German
hirelings whose enterprise the railway
man extolled. ''Then | shall be obliged
to arrest you" said the secretary,
throwing open his coat and showing
the badge of a secret service agent.
The indiscreet official is now supposed
to be in a place where what he may
have to say in praise of kultur will
reach a severely limited audience.

By Twists Teachers Words.

A Greencastle young woman teacher
in the Peru Qnd.) high school few
days ago had a vision of her job leav-
ing because of a violent protest lodged
against her by patron. The teachers
were at a meeting when the protest
came up. The patron accused the teach
er of calling her 10y "a scurvy ele-
plant" The teacher was dumfounded
when she heard the charge, and could
not recall making any such remark.
The corps of teachers went to work to
attempt to unravel the mystery. Final
ly it was solved. The teacher had told
the boy HE was disturbing element"
and the boy mistook what she said for

FORTY LANGUAGES IN CAMP
Necessity of One Tongue Has Renewed
Efforts to Establish Schools
for immigrants.

Recently an accurate census was
taken concerning the different lam
guages spoken by soldiers training in
Camp Devens, Mass, which showed
that 40 languages were spoken by the
men in that camp. There were 2.269
men whose habitual speech is French;
1854 who speak Italian, and so on
down to the relatively few who speak
Japanese, Serbian, Egyptian, Persian.
Assyrian Flemish and Arabic. OF spe
cial interest were the 625 men who
speak German.
This is just one solution to a puzzle
like that. Their must be one language
which all understand and of necessity
that language is English. The facts
disclosed by this investigation have re-
newed the efforts made to establish a
system Of schools to teach every immi-
grant the English language.
In the cooperative efforts in which
the whole nation is engaged, such as
war and many other things, one lam
guage is a necessity. Very little atten-
ton has been paid to that in the past,
but the Importance of it is being recog-
nized among all classes of thinkers at
the present time.-Omaha WOrld-Her--

with just a few bouquets, soi1ed by an
evening of handling, which she shyly
tried to sell. On her black blouse was
a service pin with three stars. An
officer of the National army alone at

He did not hesitate. Come" he

Reims still sheltered some GOO chill

How these children lived In the cell
lars and the special shelters while the
Germans fercely bombarded the
town is a pathetic story. Though
these cellars and shelters were dark.
dreary and damp. where the suns
rays never once showed themselves,
no one ever saw these children down
