kept Belgian time, instead of Ger man, as ordered by the kaiser.
 An officer sent to Inspect the con vent of St. Andre, a girls school, re ported that the sister who showed him around had a wrist watch show ing Belgian time. The sister was fined S250. A Grand Place shopkeep- CT was imprisoned three months for telling an officer Belgian instead of German time.
 With the beginning of 1917 prices of all commodities scared. A pound of starch cost $2.50, an ordinary candle 60 cents, ordinary shoes $15 to S20 a pair, re-soling same $S, while dress goods and flsnnels became so expensive only the wealthy could buy.
 Food supplies were unsatisfactory and the Germans did nothing to ale vIate them.
 In November, 1917, metals of all sorts, especially brass and copper, were confiscated, German soldiers going from house to house and build ing to building to strip away the metal.
 Uses Funeral for Propaganda.
 On February ?, 1917, some German planes, dropped bombs by mistake on Bruges. Yon Buttlar, commandant, decided the funeral of the victims could be utilized for propaganda pur- poses. He got a wreath and pho tographer, and while the mourners were about the grave, made them line up, put himself in the center and had the scene recorded. On September 8, 1917, allied airmen dropped bombs at the Bassin and were fired at from St. Croix. Shells fell in Bruges, killing a dozen people. The German officers refused to allow funeral mass notices to be posted unless the line killed by English shells was added. The BelglanS refused and the notices were torn, down.
 Two Germans constructed bomb proof cellars accommodating 200 to 1000 persons each. While exeavatlng they came upon 5000 hidden bottles of wine belonging to M. Ganshof. The wine was taken without payment. The bomb-proOfs were for Germans and people in small houses without cellars had to take their chances at night, although they could use the public refuges" in daytime.

CRUELTY OF KULTUR RULE

LondOn.-Llfe under the German heel Is yiyidly portrayed in the diary of Mir. Humphrey Page, an English man who lived four years in Bruges during the German occupation. Events are recorded showing determined at tempts by the German officers to break the spirit of the Belgian residents proved futile. The manifestations of kultur-rule also are shown. Here are some of the events. Sketchily told:
 In September, 1916, the Bruges city council was directed to find speci- fled number of workmen for the Ger mans under penalty Of S25,0OO fine for each days delay. All who refused to work were imprisoned.
 M. Schrauvune. leading attorney, discussing this affair with Belgians in & cafe. said he would not work for the Germans, and considered Bel gians who did as towards. The next day the attorney was summoned be- fore the German commander, fined ST5O, sent to Sedan for six months hard labor, but never was returned.
 There were all sorts of petty tyranny. French and English adyer- tisements on buildings had to be re- moved. Even printed funeral notices in French were forbidden.
 Ban on Kings Picture.
 No resident over ten years old was allowed to be in the streets without & passport containing his photo. It was a punishable offenSe to exhibit portraits of the Belgian king and queen. German officers stood at church doors to confiScate coins, worn as brooches or lOcketS, bearing the likeness of the Belgian king.
 No one was allowed to be on the streets after 8 D. III. Occasionally, when the whole town was punished for some alleged offense, every resi- dent had to remain indoors after 6 p. m., an especial hardship for the poor in summertime.
 One of the sources of income to the German overlords was fines inflicted on persons whose watches or clocks
