GERMAN HEADS
LEAVE AND

The Sudden Suspension of
Arrnistice Negotiations
Cause For Change.

Geneva, Wednesday. Feb. IT.
This evenings Swiss newspapers print
Berlin dispatch stating that owing
to sudden suspension Of armistice
negotiations the German commission
left Spa this morning for Berlin. The
reason for the reported suspension Is
not given. General Ludendorff is ex-
pected to arrive in Berlin tomorrow
and Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
will go there shortly.
Negotiations between Allied and
German financial. economic and mil
itary missions have been in progress
at Spa for some time, but there has
been no intimation from Allied sources
that anything In the nature of a crisis
had developed there. In the absence
of definite information, 1t would seem
probable that the meetings II they
have been broken as reported. have
been suspended only temporarily. On
February IA, Marshal Foch presented
to the German armistice commission
at Treves the provisions for an extern
sion Of the armisttce between the AL
lies and Germany. These provisions
he received from the supreme council
Of the peace conference. They were
accepted by the Germans after being
referred to the national assembly at
Weimar, and were signed by the Ger
man delegates on the evening of Feb
ruary 16. -'t

MARCH.

March is 4 crusty old chap with
Who stands as a sentinel grim at the
door
OF the lodgeroom of spring. with its
carpet of grass,
And his orders. 1t seems. are to let no
one pass
Save the faithful who give him the
token or word
And can prove the degrees have been
duly conferred.
oh. none can get in where the sky is
OF the loveliest blue, without going
by March.
There's sword in his hand. and its
cleaning and cold,
And he warns the intruder away from
his fold:
And cowans and eavesdroppers haven't
a chance
OF esca ping his challenge. He knows
at a glance
Al his friends and foes. and he or
ders them all
To sit on his bench till the gaVel
sha II fan
As a sign that the lodge is about to
begin;
And then if you're faithful he'll let
you 40 in.
Who taps at the door of the lodge
room of Spring
Must put up with March and his mad
clustering;
There are times he'll he gentle. but
mostly he's rough,
With a voice like snarl and a man
ner that's bluff:
There are times he's . whimsical fel-
low. though fat;
He'll blow dust III your eyes and play
tricks with yOur hat
But if YOU are faithful and laugh at
each sting
March viii pass YOU at last 10 the
