WHY KuEHLMAN HAD TO GO.

It would De interesting to know whether any ol the people of Germany are fooled by the kaiser's stage thun- der and his theatrical 'repndiation Of his solemn puppets in the civil gov ernment of the empire.
 Take the recent disappearance from the scene of Foreign Secretary yon Kuehlmann. He was forced to resign by the clamor of the pan~-Germans, the militarists and the general swarm of junkers. The foreign secretary had thrown these sword clatterin9 ele- ments into consternation by telling the reichstag on June 25 that the end of the war can hardly be expected through purely military decisions alone and without recourse to diplo- lnatic negotiations" They were aghast at the fellows msolenee What" they cried "ls the good German sword to fail after all? Is there to be no vic tory this year, or next? Is there to be no profitable German peace?"
 The ontcry caused Kuehlmann and his superior, the imperial chancellor to stammer out a iame explanation, endeavoring to cover up the secreta- rvs admission with clumsy and soph- istical corrections Their efforts proved to be futile. The mischief was done. The too candid secretary hao made himself so unpopular with the aaf. ht taaAf4tlOags tllA kaiser was ended. So he resigned 10 make room for anothher puppet
 ii is virtually certain that Kuehi manns speech in the reichstag had been edited and censored by his chief the imperial kaiser himself Kuehl- mann is no tyro or bNnderdr When he was appointed even his enemies recognized his ability and adroitness. lie was known to have favored an dn- derstanding with Britain and he was chosen for high office in the expecta tion that he would play an important part in negotiating a German peace. However, developments have not fur thered the Raisers designs. Kuehi- mann has had no opportunity to apply his craft except at Brest-Litovsk
 He is dismissed at this time be- cause the irresponsible autocrat neeus d new and unsmirched instrument Go toll for him. The kaiser accepts no responsibility, Ostensibly he can do no wrong. His mistakes are paid for by his ministers and he thus gains time for further intrigues and str1te- gems.

THAT MISSIONARY DINNER
IN THE Nj. E. CHURCH

There was a dinner in the church.
Prepared with skillful care,
And thru the courtesy Of some,
/ was invited there.
1t was on Missionary day,
We had this dinner rare.
And standing. all the ladies ate,
But | sat in a chair,
And thus, while we enjoyed the feast
Each one could plainly see.
That looked up to women folks,
And they looked down on me.
Fried chicken was a choice dish,
No one could pass ii by,
And next to this Of what was there,
The best was pumpkin. pie.
There were two other kinds Of pie,
And each appealed to me-
With hot rolls, and with salad too,
We drank our ice cold tea.
Now, this was one of many feasts,
That Lubbock women make,
And always when have a chance,
OF them will partake.
The delegates from other parts.
Met with our ladies here.
And now the meal they had prepared.
Was eaten with good cheer
| shook hands with the preachers
there,
With many women, too,
Who, always in their social work,
Excel in all they do.
