Distribution Pcriious.

"If the work of printing was dam
gerous there was another part of the
task of publication even more peril
ous-that of distribution. Here is
how managers generally proceeded:
"When the pa per had been printed
fifty thousand were run off at
time-they were carried to certain
central places known to the men in
charge of distribution. To enter these
places pass words were required. such
For the King" Praise Cod" "Prin-
cess Marie Jose" or Long Live Am

After thus obtaining their supplies
the distributors went about the even
more perilous task of giving them to
the people, To give an idea of the
audacity of these distributors it is well
to remark that one man invariably
found a way OF placing copy of the
paper on the desk of the German mil
itary governor in brussels who ragged
and fumed but never found the guilty
one, The distributor learned that at
IA certain hour each day the governor
went into n room adjoining his to die
tate letters. He chose this hour to en-
ter through a window. After several
times, German detectives were put on

officials in Belgium. was told here to-
day by Pierre GoemaeTe. one Of its
staff of reporters.
Goemaere. who is only 25, accom-
panied the Belgian rulers to the

time he told the United Press some of
its history. Goemaere, who acted as
one Of the twelve contributors of the
famous newspaper. has written
book on his experiences which is
shortly to be published.

at the beginning of 1915 by the aged
Brussels journalist, Victor Jourdain,
who gathered around him several de-
voted collaborators." said Goemaere.
Together this group Of friends wrote
the articles for the paper. To do this
they retired with their chief to a Sc
cret chamber where an electric bell
had been installed to warn them of
danger. While waiting to send the
articles to the printer, the writers hid
the manuscripts in the pipes of the
radiators.
