LOVES GIFT

came to us with the birth of Jesus Christ, Gods Son and Mans Savior. When God gave His Son, He taught us the real joy one may receive when we give our gifts in love-
 A loveless gift will chill and harden sympathetic soul and prepare a soil in which the seeds of hypocrisy may grow and bear it's selfish fruit
 A love gift will warm and soften the selfish soul and will fuse all man. kind into a Christian brotherhood.
 Christ's work and ministry was one of love. Hence, we find the result of His work, so vast, so far-reaching, so abiding, and so worthy of our emu lation. The world is dying for lit tie bit of love! Who is withholding his or her bit of love, as he or she serves?

WHINES TONCITE
SYMPATHY ENTIRE WORLD

pendence on the outside world for a
living. :s w ia@& &
The South Germans of Bavaria and
the Rhfneland towns manifest far
less fear over the defeat and the debt
dened. Food conditions interest
them, and the internal problems of
the country. Foreign politics oc-
cirpies far less place in their dis
cushions s
The reason for the remarkably diff
ferent viewpoint may be explained
by the remark of a Bavarian high in
political circles. Between you and
me, we don't mind this: defeat so
much after all. It's true that we
might have made a far better peace
a year ago, but we'd still be under
the domination of Prussia. Now we
are Independent of it, and the Prus-
SLAMS know they can't rule us any
more. Well have to pay more, but
it is better freedom.
Prussia probably will make a
strong bid to continue her influence
over the Germans. The struggle is
on now--the South Germans talk Of
laws from Berlin" if the capital Of
the new republic is not moved
further south. Unfortunately, there
is no big city in central Germany
which would do. Under pressure
from the South Germans, a new capt.
tai may be built from the ground up,
after the manner Of Washington. &
Another interesting feature of
South German life is the satisfaction
with their own country and the life
there. People are content to live
and work and let the outside world
alone This may be due to the fact
that life In South Germany is
heartier. more solid and less OF a
struggle than in the North.
In Berlin and other parts of North
ern Germany there is huge per.
centage of the population looking
forward to leaving the country at
the first opportunity, for America
and England, if entry into those
countries. possible. You are be-
sieged with people who want to
know if Germans soon can 60 e
America. The Prussian viewpoint
sees no reason why Germans cannot
enjoy the fruits of the world as they
did before the war.

BACLEY CASE MAY .-
/ CAUSE BIG CHANGE

Brainerd, March 3.----The supreme
courts ruling in Clearwater county
case originating at Bagley involving
liquor sales in which the court held
that the Chippewa Indian treaty of
1856 is superior to state laws, aud
has always forbidden the sale Of in
toxicating liquors, may switch all
liquor prosecutions in Indian country
In this section from the state to the
federal court. In the district court
lat Brainerd there are many cases on
the criminal calendar charging In
fraction of the liquor laws in the In
dian country: ,ssss ,l.- -I,,
The effect Of the Baglay case upon
prosecutions under the state law for
sale Of liquor will probably be pre-
scented in a day or SO by demurrer
to the indictment or some other way
in district court and may result in
decision here. '"~ s4> .EEs.
TO many lawyers it looks as
though federal officers will carry
burden OF enforcing the liquor laws
in the Indian country in this district
and that the federal not the state
courts will hear the cases and federal
not state judges pronounce sentence.

Berlin, Feb. 1. tBy Mail.) )--That
Prussian attitude and ambition is
quite unchanged. SO far as indivi-
duals are concerned, is one Of the
conclusions foreigner Is forced to
after living In Berlin long enough
to talk to people and to find out what
they think.
e~ The question is one of the most in
teresting and also most difficult to
understand. BY Prussians is meant
the people of North Germany, as dis
tinguished from those of other parts
OF the country. 1t Is not hard to de-
eide where they are from no matter
where you meet these people, nor is
everyone in Berlin Pr,lssian. tE}
AS nation, Germans everywhere
realize their defeat and realize the
helpiessness of their situation. But
the attitudes toward the problems be-
fore them is sharply contrasting
when you talk to South Germans
after discussing the situation with
Prussians. 4gs -, ,s-.. ztNE
Unconsciously, the Prussian as
sumes responsibility for the old sys-
TEN by the tremendous concern he
manlfHStS over GermanyS scoilapSe.
From the Prussian point of view, 1t
is the duty of every German to make
the situation appear as bad as pos
sible to gain as lenient peace as
possible.
Perhaps unconsciously, the Prus-
SLAMS are whining In order to win
sympathy. A typical expression of
the Prussian point of view will us
ually include pointing out that the
Entente must not demand too much
of Germany, will disclaim the re-
sponsibility for beginning the war,
and will make an appeal for food and
commerce. @ars 1. r. 8
> There is something cold and cal
culating about the Information you
get from grussians. Unconsciously
you find there is still a strong Pan
Germanic spirit, an ambition for en-
pire, for the colonies, and for world
commerce. The North Germans arc
continually on the aggressive to gain
every point possible characteristic
