Galsworthy writes in the Yale Re

So Herr Friedrich Ebert, an un
educated and unknown tailor or
saddIer, was elected president of
the German republic. That is a
good one sprung on the Allies
while peace terms are pending.
The election of such a man is spec
tacular and is intended to beguile
other nations. If we look behind
the mask, which is Ebert, we
shall see Wilhelm Hohenzollern.
We are not afraid to bet that two
years from now Germany will
have the same form of govern
ment as before the war. The Ger

Durkee Has Some Close
Calls Oper In France

Paris, France, Jan 13.-Anybody
that has had anything to do with
this war believes in luck
One Of the men who believes in It
strongest is Il B. Durkee. Of FL Paso,
Tex, former secretary Of the E. Paso
~" who has been for the past year
in France, as 7. N c A secretary
in advanced areas.
During the last drive Mr.. Durkee
had so many hairbreadth escapes that
he says he viii never be afraid Of
anything again Once the car in
which he was being driven, one dark
night, started TO skid down hill The
roads were greasy, and shell torn,
besides no lights were allowed on the
car and there was a convoy OF trans
ports coming up the hill in the oppo-
site direction. The car turned com
pletely about and slid down the hill
from one end TO the other. It was
entirely out OF the control OF the
driver, yet II reached the bottom Of
the hill without a scratch
The next day Mr.. Durkee was work
ing on the, front Of the car when a
shell burst so near that two bullets
went through the back Of the car and
piece Of the shell fell through the
top into the rear seat. Yet Mr.. Durkee
escaped with no other injury than a
small burn on his hand, which he got
when he picked up the piece OF shell,
Slll not
Shortly afterwards Mr.. Durlee
drove out to q ruined village to look
for q place to establish a Y. n. c. A.
warehouse. The cellar Of a partly
destroyed house was selected How
ever. the driver Of the car advised
against selecting that particular spot,
since Il was so damp that the cookies
meant for the boys on their way to
the trenches might be ruined After
some little discussion Mr.. Durkee de-
cided to transfer the proposed ware
house 70 the next village. Less than
a week later a EOS fell into the midst
Of the warehouse that might have
been-and there weren't any pieces
OF the house big enough to pick up.
To cap the climax. Dur1ee was later
talking to an American soldier to
whom he had just delivered a paper,
when shell passed so near them that
Il took off the soldiers ear.
