FORBID YANKEES
TO HAVE GERMAN
DOC ATTEND THEM

Coblenz, Thursday, Feb. 1S.-tBy
the Associated Press) .-Purthe ev-
idence of American determination
to prevent the intermingling of
Germans and men of the army of
occupation was given today in the
issuance of orders forbidding Amer
lean soldiers to patronize German
doctors. Regulations against fra
TEMPTATION are still strictly enforc-
ed and today's order was in line
with that forbidding the local pur-
chase Of foodstuffs.
Local newspapers express salts
faction with the establishment of
the new German government but
the increasing food shortage seems
to arouse more popular interest.

LOST ART OF PUNCTUATION
Criticism Is Made That Modern Writers Seem to Constitute Law
 Unto Themselves.

late book is devoted to the art of punctuation. It is certainly needed, for punctuation as habit has become al- most universally neglected, remarks the Columbus Ohio State Journal. The use of the comma, the semicOlOn, the colon, the dash and the Interrogation and exclamation points seem to go it alone without any rules or guidance. Every writer is a rule unto himself and he scatters the points in any Way he sees fit. Now, the author of the book does not stop with suggesting rules for the correct use of points, but impreSseS us with the idea that the most important use of pointing is to give explicit meaning to the paragraph. But there is so much writing done these days that very little regard is paid to either of these objects. We see noted authors often producing pages of manuscript without a single point, while others fill their writings with the points so that any dozen words or more are marshaled behind comma or semicolon or something. It is more comfortable to read after the latter than the former, for one can usually depend upon the points to get at the meaning of the author. We find ire quently writers who do not seem to think there is such a thing as punctua- ton, who might do better, if they do not know the rules, to resort to punctuation of their own. It will not always hurt a manuscript to do this. Sometimes a pointed paragraph needs points.
