AMSTERDAM, Nov. 1.-THE German
Kaiser made an inglorious entry into
Holland, according to reports from
Eysden. At 1880 o'clock Sunday morn
ing ten travel stained autom obiles
driven by Prussian officers were seen
coming slowly through the fog along
the Wise -Maastricht high road. The last
Belgian village, Mouland, which is al
most on the border line, was still
asleep. The noise Of the motors
brought out a crowd of curious viii
layers.
The former ruler Of Germany was
dressed in the uniform of general,
with an officers cap, and carried a
sword The erstwhile martial figure
was huddled and bent on a walking
stick, while his eyes stared straight
ahead.
The Dutch frontier guards stopped
the cortege. After some brief formal-
ties the automobiles were conducted
to the railway station at Eysden. Dutch
cavalry and military cyclists formed
Gordon about the station.
Crowds of Belgian refugees swarmed
around the station crying:
"a bas Guillaume! Assassin!
An imperial train arrived at the sta
tion an hour later. It consisted of
fourteen cars, and William Hohenzol-
lern, who had walked up and down the
railway platform, entered the train and
changed to civilian clothes.

already become well known in the
United States. now has its own de-
partment at the American Red Cross
Headquarters in London, occupying
an entire floor at 40 GrosvenOr Gar

He commands a large staff of work

touch with camps and hospitals where
American soldiers are to be found.
Relatives at home of American sol

many kinds about the men. The aim

answered. This work has many phas-

which deals with inquiries about men
who have been wounded or sick.

RETROSPECT AND PROSPECT

Compared on the basis of the ratio
Of men in the war to population we
would have thirteen and one-half mil
lion under arms if we reach the ratio
of soldiers to population of the North
during the Civil War, and twenty mil
lion if we reach the ratio of soldiers to
population of the South.
Since public opinion is liable to err
on the side of Over-cOnfiuence it is
well to remember that no amount of
guns. gas, airplanes, or machine guns
or anything else will make a respecta-
BE record fer us next spring unless
il is so much more and better than the
Germans have that our men will have
every advantage. And we must have
the men there too.
Add to the old adage many hands
make light work. a preponderance of
superior equipment and supplies and
the end of the war is at hand

Victim of Accident, He Poses as
Hero of War.
Nv Associated Pres,

PARIS, Aug. 13.-The heroic ex-
ploits and hair-breadth escapes of
D'Artagan as narrated by Dumas in
THE Three Musketeers" fade into
comparative insignifcance when COM
pared with the achievements of Rene
Bertrand as told by himself.
Minus an arm and a leg, with nine
medals glittering on his breast, and
asserting that his body bore more than
80 bullet and bayonet wounds, "Pri-
vate Rene Bertrand of the Frencsh
Colonial Infantry" posed in Paris as
the greatest hero of the war.
Now he has been arrested as perhaps
one of the wars greatest fakirs. Po-
lice authorities declare that he lost
his leg and arm in a railway accident
and that five imprisOnmentS instead of
five citations compose his record.

MONDAY-Its no trouble at all Ia
keep my house clean this summer
They keep the streets so clean here
even in war time. Every morning the
road in front of our house is watered
and swept by old men and girls and in
the worst weather there is never any
thing worse than drippings from UNI
/ brellas to be cleaned up in the hall.
The streets are kept in perfect re-
| pair even now after four years of war
when every able bodied man between
the ages of Is and 81 is right on the
job of war The wood or tar-macadam
paving never gets so bad that it has
TO be all pulled up. The minute lit
tie bruise appears up comes cart
with repairs and the thing is fixed.
When we moved into this street l
thought it must be a particularly quiet
district, the road looked so new. But
| soon found it was a traffic way. The
enormous army service trucks that
stream past the house in the night
shake the place to the foundations and
make the windows rattle with their
weight But they only make a drOning
rumble because the roads are like
velvet and there is not a break any
where for miles.
When | think of the streets at home
in peace time. the holes and the ruts,
that used TO 90 for months unrepaired,
and the din even the milk wagon made
