NO DOUBTINE HIS MEANING
tained Full Information Even to
the Most Uninteilieent.

This weeks story from the front:
A certain company sergeant major
was not popular with his men. They
accused him of having cold feet.
One day the company went into a
rest camp 20 miles behind the firing
line, where it was an impossibility any
shells could reach them. The ground,
however, as very waterlogged, and a
fatigue party was detailed to dig q
drainage trench.
Presently a sergeant happened. to
pass that way.
"What are you digging there?" he
shouted to the corporal in charge Of
the job.
A grimy face, from which the sweat
WAS pouring, popped up from the
trench. 1t belonged to one Of the SER
geant majors most persistent and re-
lentless adversaries.

POSTAL SYSTEM IN DIsARRAY
German Government at itS Wits End
to Stop Thievery From the
Goods In Transit.

Extraordinary steps have been taken
by the German government to call q
hait to the thieves within the postal
system. It was claimed that out of
ten parcels sent three would disap-
pear. Packages To soldiers at the
front containing food, delicacies and
clothing would disappear more fire.
QIently than any other shipments. All
appeals to the patriotic spirit Of the
thieves were Of no avail. The per
centage Of thefts increased steadily.
Finally the government was compelled
to take drastic and systematic meas
ures. The military branch was called
In and stations Of control manned by
non-commissioned officers and soldiers
were planted at principal railroad
points in the empire. The employ
ment Of mere youths is blamed for
the deterioration Of the postal service.
Practically all the employees Of mill
tary age had to join the army and
their places were filled by boys and
girls. Besides, the scarcity Of food
tenpts many to steal.

Unless B. Il. r. Announces
ITS Intentions, He Warns

Public Service Commissioner Lewis
Nixon yesterday wrote to F. p. Rovce,
general manager of the B. r. r. in
forming him that if the road does not
within three weeks announce its in
tcntion of completing the connecting
INK between tho Shcepshead Bay road
and Coney Island The city will do the
work. Until this connection is made
the 5-cent fare to Coney Island cannot
be put into effect, under a ruling made
last week by Commissioner Nixon. In
his letter Commissioner Nixon declared
the city stood ready in the event Of
failure of the B. r. r. to go ahead
with the work and to erect it's own
terminal at Concy Island, so a scent
face would be in order not later than
next summer.
Commissioner Nixon's letter was in
reply to one from Mr.. Royce, in which
the latter said construction of the
strip Of road was dependent, from the
companys standpoint, upon the sue
cessful issue OF the application Of the
company pending in the Federal Court
for funds to carry out this and other
improvements. The company also be-
lieves bids for the steel for this work
are too high
