Simplicity Is Characterizing
every Preparation For
Last Ceremony.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Jan. IA few sim
pie preparations were made today for
Colonel Roosevelt's funeral with the
idea, Of making it as plain and unemo-
tional ceremony as possible. The SER
vice will consist merely Of a prayer and
the Episcopal ritual" ashes to ashes,
and dust to dust t''-without hymns,
without q sermon. There was o hush
over the village today. Some places
were closed and few mournerS arriv'
cd. But for the most part there wSr 40
unusual stir--the town looked as II
would on Sunday. Roosevelt, the man
of action and strife, in whose ears ap.
plsuse Of millions had dinned, lay in
state with military guard Of honor
but like the most humble private citi'
zen, in the sorrowful calm Of his own
house, with none but his own home
folks to look upon his face.
Sagamore Hill Desolate.
Sycamore Hill looked rather desolate
the blinds were drawn in some of the
windows and bit Of crepe flapped in
the wind.
The casket was delivered at the house
TODAY and the body placed in it. 1t Il
severly plain in design Of oak with
three silver handles on either side. The
on silver plate, is "Theo
dore Roosevelt" October ~, 1858. Jan
nary 6. 1919"
Despite the request that there be nc
flowers number of set pieces arrived
and were taken to the church. A sinai
flag was hoistcd to half mast in from
Of Sycamore Hill this morning.
Leslie Disbrow, worshipful master OF
the local Masonic lodge, OF which thu
ex-prcsident was q member, said all hi
plans for participation in the funera
had been halted because Of the family
wishes and that no flowers would b'
sent. W. Emler Roosevelt, reiatiyc
indicated there was considerable anxl
ETY. as to the number Of notables thai
probably would come to the services. L
Is believed that many well known meI
will attend, despite the private nature
of the ceremony; so many in fact, tina
there will be no room for them. Toward
noon today farmers who had know
Roosevelt personally began coming int
town in automobiles and wagons.
Lcafless trees about the house and II
the estate surrounding added to the at
mosphere of sadness. An occasional au
tomobile drove slowly up to tss sid'
door, its motor making q noise tina
seemed rudelv disturbing. Rev. G. Z

vices, Indicated today that no chang
in arrangements had been made.

TO BEGIN PREIIMINARIEs
By Robert j. Bender

Omitted Press staff correspondent
Paris, Jan. 7.-Back in Paris, Presi-
dent Wilson was expected today to
plunge Immediately into the final pre-
Eminaries which will precede formal
peace deliberations of associated pow
ers.
The president returned from Italy,
armed with the obvious support Of the
common people Of that country. This
endorsement, added to the apparent
backing Of his peace program by the
majority of public opinion in great
Britain and France was accepted in
American circles as giving him an ini
tial advantage in approaching conver
sations.
Inasmuch as Wilson declared in hi
Milan speech that peace must be die
tated by the common people, it is be
Keved he feels he has accomplished
through this apparent public endorse
mcnt the greater part of what hi
sought in coming to Europe.
To Be Joint Conferences
The joint conferences of the Ameri
can, British, italian and French dele
cations which, it is believed In man.
quarters, will constitute the real peace
congress, were expected to get unde
way not later than the first Of mex
week.
There was some talk in unofficia
circles that any scheduled formal con
versations might be adjourned tomor
row, the, date of Colonel Roosevelt
funeral, in Difference to the memory o
the former president.
The president was given a riotou
welcome in Turin, despite a rainstorm
After he spoke from a balcony Of tn
palace, he shook hands with 1400 -Ita
ian mayors who had gathered to hea
lin. Many of these men had wake
miles to the nearest railroad in orde
to get to Turin.
The president said that the "Puls
Of the modern world beats in the fiel
and the factory"
Wilson spoke again at a luncheo
given for the presidential marty. "Th
real blood of the nation flows in tn
streets in which are the people VIII
more than the rest Of us have born
the stress of war; he said.

FINAL RITES FOR COLONEL
ROOSEVELT ARE TOMORROW

whore the former president will be laid
in grave dug at spot selected by
himself.
Episcopal Ritual Read.
The Episcopal ritual designated for
the cemetery will be read there. Al
though Mrs. Roosevelt wants as little
publicity as possible, it was certain to-
day that considerable number Of mourn
ers would be on hand tomorrow to stand
uncovered outside the little church dur
ing the service and to line the Tood
from the church to the cemetery, pay
ing their last respects to the dead cx-
president.
An atmosphere Of gloom and mourn
ing pervades this little town and OPP
presses the visitor the moment he steps
from the train.
IT is not fast moving town, though
only an hour and half by railroad
from the city. 1t took quite while
for the realization Of its loss to spread
along the quiet streets but now there
is only deep detection and silence Of
mourning.
Deep Mourning.
They all knew the colonel. They
speak Of him in whispers, as though he
were their brother, asleep in the next
room.
The town is full Of newspaper cores
pondents and photographers, the inn is
crowded with them. Movie men arr.v-
ed early. They wander about the ST.
lent village streets disconsolate-loon.ng
anxiously for "action' when finally a
big flag was raised in front Of the post
Office, oil the movie men in despera-
ton gathered there to film the flapping
banner.
The little Episcopal church is q typ
ical frame structure such as you may
see in many villages in the land. 1t
seats only 500.
II was noted that many of the sym
pathy notes came from "just plain
folks" who never saw Roosevelt, but
felt that they had suffered s. personal
loss A number of cables arrived from
soldiers in the American expeditionary
forces, kilograms came from Spanish
war veterans, rough riders and g. A. Il.
men.

Harwich, Eng, Dec. 1s.-(By Mail,)
What kind of fellows personally are
these German submarine sailors-they
who used to go about sinking passen-
ger vessels and hospital ships without
warning9
This is question every American
has asked himself at some time.
From British launch today saw
hundreds of them-standing in gro
tesque groups on the U-boats' decks,
tumbling from the submarine into the
launch and leaning against their kits
as the launch hurried them back to
their transports-and talked person
ally with dozens of them.
The first personal impression as your
launch draws up beside submarine
is the boyishness of the faces before
you. Many seemed from Is to 16. Sew

Expressionless Faces.
The next, is the remarkable express
sionlessness of their features. You had
expected to find sullenness, or dejec-
tion, or spite. Instead you find your
self looking into group of absolute
masks, registering neither joy nor sof-
row, relief or strain, pleasure nor hate
absolutely nothing giving the faintest
hint as to what is going on behind.
You never realized before the capacity
of the German physiognomy to conceal
feeling.
You came to find desperate men
You found strange-looking boys, in gro
tesque nondescript uniforms.
Some wore the conventional grayish
Jacket worn by locomotive and station
airy enginemen in the states. Others
combined the regular blue jacket Of
the German navy with pair of olive
khaki trousers. Still others had their
engineers jacket over an ordinary
dark brown or black pair of civilian g
trousers. All had the little round blue
cap of the German jackie.
All Not Boys.
As the crew swarmed off the sub
marine into the launch it became ap-
parent all were not boys. Here and
there was man Of 30, bristling in a

was chap of 26, looking as if he had

Once aboard, the masks dropped from
their faces, and | was soon surrounded
