Civil War Menace Is Seen.

Fears that this Is the beginning of
civil war which might set the
whole country into blaze are caus-
ing the Hoffman, Government in
Bavaria to hesitate TO attack Munich.
1t is proceeding very slowly with its
military efforts. the only measures
taken with troops so far having been
attempts to cut off the food supply.
That the Reds are quarreling
among themselves is indicated by the
fact that there have been street fights
among the Soviet leaders. There is
news from Bavaria that there is q
possibility of the restoration Of
legitimate government. hut this news
Is offset by disturbing reports
from Baden. where aGitators have
been buSily NJ work, that Soviet
Government has been established in
connection with the Munich Soviet.
Brunswick, formerly the home Of
the Ka.ser's daughter, is now the
Reddest centre in Germany and also
has declared Soviet republic. An
evening newspaper prints an uncon-
firmed report that Brunswick is send
ing Red army against Madgeburg,
which Is again in firm hands.
The strike at DanziS is becoming
general. 1t has tied up tho railways
in that part of the country and
threatens TO produce IL complete rail-
road tieup throughout Germany.
In Berlin strike of the bank en-
ployees brought about street clashes
which made it necessary for troops To
take possession of the Deutsche Bank
and various strike centres.
The cry is being raised to turn out
the Ebert -Schcidemann Government.

BERLIN. April IL (delayed With
every day that peace is deferred Ger
many's assets are shrinking. Her pro-
ductive capacity has been immensely
reduced and the ambition and inclina-
tion of the people to work is steadily
diminishing. The ability to pay what
ever obligat tions that may eventually
be placed upon the country by the
Peace Conference is lessening. Polit-
ical, industrial and financial disin-
tegration increase the disposition Of
the people not to sign a hard peace.
This new problem before the asso-
ciated Powers cannot be emphasized
too strongly. Germany could have
weathered harder peace weeks ago
than the ragged nerves Of her people
in their present psychological condi-
ton could stand to-day without
danger of anarchy. Inquiries have
been made to unofficial sources which
strongly indicate the idea that Com
munism is steadily eating its way into
the German mind.
The suspense. unrest, discomfort
and actual hunger are manlfesting
themselves in fever which has
seized upon the whole people. The
Soviet will o. the wisp is regarded as
an actual haven OF peace and pros
Berity. The situation to-day showed
little betterment. Munich is still cut
off from the outside world. and there
are no trains. telegraphs or postal
service in operation. Troops under
Col. Epps are holding the strategic
roads

Birthday Supper.

The birthday chicken-pie supper
given by the ladies of the Congrega-
tional church at their dining rooms
Friday evening, was a splendid sue
cess, netting the treasury of the So
cial Union $50. Twelve tables were
provided each with decorations suita-
BILE to one month of the year. The
lady having charge of the table sat
at its head and served the chicken pie.
Guests were seated at the table re-
presenting their birth.
The decorations were briefly as fol-
lows: January, tinsel and white, a
large ball in the center representing
snow, with a little New Year cupid
standing on top; February, Valentine
decorations with red roses and hearts.
March was green, with shamrocks and
Irish flags. April had Easter lilies,
rabbits and chicks. May had May
pole in the table center with cupids
dancing about it. June was the brid-
al table in pink with Kewpie bride,
groom, minister and others. July
was truly patriotic with red, white
and blue, and the usual Fourth of
July horns, etc. August had the va
cation resort with an imitation lake
and sand beach in the center of the
| table. September was the harvest
month with a trace of corn and au-
tumn. October was represented bt
pumpkin lanterns, black cats and
witches, emblems of Halloween. No
vember the month of Thanksgiving,
was true to traditions. December,
with its Christmas tree, candles, re-
minded all of that festive month when
we all rejoice over the birth of the
| King of Kings.
! Following the supper, A. H. Grout
as postmaster, called on several for
remarks or stories appropriate to the
different months.
