 The Canadians are most feared by the Germans After the battle of Ypres two men of my regiment were found crucified on barn doors with bayonets. They were found before they had died. I lay behind the Ger man lines for four days before was attended to. was spared only be- cause. of my youth. once. a German private was on the point of killing me but he was prevented by his officer, I saw comrades. wounded. bayoneted by the Germans.
 By their surgery the Germans have crippled many men. Some operations they perform without anaesthetics. They take out eyes, amputate legs and arms without cause. A friend of mine, who I met later in England was wounded and he was told that they did not have time to fix his wound, which was in the ankle, and that they would either shoot him or amputate the leg at the hip. He agreed to the latter.
 The men are treated horribly Tn the prison camps. When we returned we were clothed in rags. Many were Blind or crippAd. Some had one leg longer than the other, the result of a dGFuldH dIipuldllOIl oI SStI1uS OL- e broken limb. An officers arm was am- putated at the shoulder, with a wound in the wrist, to set an example to of ficers.
 With this enemy who we are fight ing, it is not a question of who will win the war but a question of how tong 1t will take.
 The spirit of the men at the front is fine, in fact, most of them are having a better time than they would have in this country.

 SPEAKS ON EXPERIENCES
American and British War Pictures Are Shown to Large Audience on Sunday Eveninq.


 Sergeant Arthur Gibbons of the First Canadian Epedition to France made his first appearance at Loomer Opera House, Sunday evening, when American and British war moving pictures were shown He spoke after the pictures were shown. The house was packed, and about three hundred people were turned away.
 He was introduced by Frank P. Fen ton of the Willimantic Council of De- fense. Sergeant Gibbons served at the front two years and was wounded twice. He, talked Sunday evening of German atrocities.
 He said that the United States is trying to educate their people to what is going on lover There Many of us think that it is the kaiser, and the militarists, but the people are back of all of them.
 Reports have been received of cruel ties beyond comprehension, which are doubted, but I have personally seen some of these. In France England and Canada there are "kiddies" with hands and arms or limbs cut off so that they would never be able to4fight Germany. In one French town we met a wo- man whose husband had lost his mind. When the Germans occupied the vil- lage. he locked himself in a closet. The Germans caught his wife in the room near the closet and treated her creully for two days, Because of what he heard and saw, he lost his mind. land had he gone into the room, they would have killed him. as is their

Timely Themes for Tcniaht's Meeting , of Chamber: of Commerce.

The first meeting of the Forum of the Willimantic Chamber of Ccm- .merce will be held at the rooms this (Monday) evening.
 The meeting will be open to all members of the Chamber of Commerce as all meetings will be until something definite has been agreed about the membership of the Forum
 Chairman C. C. Jones has selected two interesting topics. Emigration after the war will be the first subject of dehate, while the vital theme of the evening will be the topic of The Local Fire Department. The fire department has been a bone of contention since the reorganization last June, and the recent. enlistment of call men by the republican board of aldermen excited considerable discussion, but that was explained in several letters made pub lie at the recent regular meeting of the board of aldermen when Mayor Gates showed that he had taken what steps he did to keep the insurance

 Must Explain.

Four Willimantic lunch room men will be before the police court this (Monday) morning charged with vio- lating the milk law by selling milk below the standard quality. They are Fritz Kirtland, Hyman Israel, Thomas Shea and Abraham Krug. :.
 A few weeks ago state inspectors made a trip throughout the state and rounded up over 50 cases. The people were told to appear in Hartford the first of last week, where they were briefly questioned. and then their cases were turned over to the prose cutting attorneys of the districts where their stores are located. Samuel B. Harvey of this city will prosecute the cases in the local police court.
