The kaiser's Dream and Its End
BY Thomas Greer
Have you heard the kaiser's dream?
If not, I'll let you know:
He planned world conquest some
forty years ago,
While planning with his crazy brain.
He thought he had done we'll,
81 think I'm ready for the fight,
Stocked up with shot and shell.
I'm sure this is the greatest plan
The world has ever seen;
/ now must add some poison gas;
Also the submarine"
Such insults we will never stand.
AS I'm sure we're in the right,
So now prepare-To arms! boys;
Get ready for the fight.
And when the news was heard
abroad,
The boys with one accord,
Reported prompt to Uncle Sam,
And also thanked the Lord;
To show their grit and skill,
To whip them to finish,
And dethrone old Kaiser Bill.
We are over now in France,
And ready for the fight,
To whip that brutal Kaiser bunch
And teach them to do right.
So Uncle Sam rolled up his sleeves,
Right to his shoulder blade,
"Of Kaiser Bill and all the Huns,
never was afraid"
The Kaiser went to Hindenburg,
And this is what he said:'
1.-The Yankees sure must fight like
hell;
We can hardly count our dead.
Pick out your best and bravest men

serve as a nurse and housekeeper while
the members of the Bisch family were

boarded at Bisch's without any agree
ment as to the amount Of board she
should pay, and she also nursed the
sick at Bisch's home without any un-
derstanding as to the amount she
should be paid for her services. Bisch
wanted $3.50 per week for her board,
but the court found that he was EMIT
leu 10 only 90.0O per "eeh OcC~uoO
Miss Lynch had furnished her own
room. The court found that Miss
Lynch's services as nurse and attend
ant including domestic services she
rendered were worth $25 for the week
she worked there, and awarded judg-
ment in Miss Lynch's favor for SIS,
less $685., a balance the justice found
Miss Lynch owed Bisch for board, or
$1S.04, plus $14.74 costs. '. H. Cady
represented Miss Lynch and Bentley,

That in your army lies,

That IN your army lies,
And tackle them once more,
And give them a surprise"
Early in the morning
This picked army did appear,
Led by Won Hindenburg
And the kaiser left to cheer.
The Yankee boys were ready
And jumped right into the fight
They fought with gun and bayonet.
Through all the smoke and mist;
When their ammunition did give out,
They fought them with the fist.
They punched them in the stomach,
They bat them on the eyes;
The Boche started then to run,
To Won Hindenburg'S surprise.
So Ludendorff to the kaiser went
With red and bloodshot eyes;
Now, Kaiser Bill, make known your
skill,
What are we going TO do?
They whipped our best and bravest
men;
We must admit it's true"
The kaiser then lost all his grit,
Began to grunt and groan;
And wished to "Gott" that he had left
Old Uncle Sam alone.
We walked them out of Belgium,
And ran them out of France;
Before those brave. true Yankee boys
They could no longer stand.
We sent them back c-growli ,g
To 1.-THE dear old Fatherland
Three cheers for General Pershing
And the gallant boys he led
The best and bravest soldiers
That ever world did roam;
Well give them a grand reception
When they arrive at home.

Ben Franklin was a thrift man,
To this you'll all agree;
Instead OF squandering what he got,
He used frugality.
His wealth increased from year to
year,
He won fame and position;
But not alone did he succeed
In gaining his ambition.
To smooth the way-to help him OH
There stood his saving wife,
And twas thus partnership of thrift
Gave him a happy life.

Following the waIkout Of all engineers,

trie company and the Wheeling ElectI1c
comDany Yesterday, the current from the
big power plant lines Of the American
Gas & Electric company were turned IN
tn the lines of the other companies e1-
tending into the Wheeling district ana
as a result the City Of Wheeling and the
suburban towns were lighted as usual
last night.
The American. Gas & Electric company
plant is operated under the open shop
basis and late last evening 1t was re-
ported that number OF the union off,
ciais of the electric crafts had gone to
that place in an effort to get the men of
that plant into the union. The work or
cutting the lines OF the gigantic power
plant into the ones here was completed
some time ago and all that It was neces-
sary to do was TO connect the lines and
turn on the power.
There are very few small private
plants in the city making their own pow
er, and the majority Oft Is. supplied by
the Wheeling Electric, the West Penn
and tho West Virginia Traction and
Electric company lines. The outlook is
anything but bright. but 1t Is likely that
further action will be taken today to get
the factions together.
