Commander Of Prison Camp at vlIIin-

American Officers.

vichy, France.-The following as
tonishing communication was received
here by Mr.. Lee Shippey, Y. n. O. A,
from American prisoners who have
just arrived there from the Villingen
camp. They and other prisoners from
the camp at Rastatt have little faith
in the change Of tone of the Germans
and treat the communication as sim
ply another insincere and treacherous
piece Of propaganda. 1T consists of a
message Of the commander of the
prisoners camp Of Villingen, Baden,
to the American officers on their de-
parture to France, on Tuesday, No
vember 90. and is as follows:
Sooner than yeu expected, your
day of liberation has arrived. In a
short time you viii be back again
with your W dear people In Ameri-
ca. Tell them that the German peo-
pie has no more grievance against
them. Germany does not consider It.
self as conquered but as conquering,
as you can see by the troops coming
back from the front, because 1t has
now its own liberty.
snow 1t Is your turn to give the
German people a just peace In the
peace terms which will give them lib
erty, to live Justly and peacefully with
the world at large and which will leave
Us no hate to again disturb the peace
Of the world.
"We hope that you will reach your
home safely and find everyone In good
health.
II again request you not to part
from Germany with hatred against rs
and to influence your people to look
upon Germany as Il is now, not as 1t
has been judged, perhaps Justly. up to
the present time.
"The new Germany has the desire
to live In perfect peace with its recent
30 enemies, but In the same name
claims an honorable peace which will
give her the possibility to live as
promised by President Wilson.

Besides these students two others.
Ross Murphy and Helen Beckstron,
are expecting to do work this summet
10 complete the requirements for
Rgraduation. II this Is done they, will
be given diplomas this fall.
Most OF the students have worked
diligently during the short time they
have been permitted to attend
school this year. This is especially
true of the two upper classes. When
opportunity was granted them to do
home work during the quarantine.
they took advantage of 1t and worked
faithfully. Many of them have CON-
pleted full years work IN spite OF
being in actual attendance but half
year. and we feel to commend them
for their exceptional diligence.
Some few. have an idea that this
school year has been a complete fail
ure. This Is by no means true. Most
of the pupils have received at least
one full semester's work. and we feel
that those parents who kept their
children out. feeling that 1t was Of
no use to send them, have made a de-
cided mistake. Their children could
have made at least half a grade the
same as those who did come.
The schools have not been entirely
lacking in the matter Of school activ-
ity and school spirit,. as some have
imagined. On registration day last
fall all the schools united in a patri-
otic parade where they sang songs,
waved flags and banners and other
wise demonstrated the fact that they
were true American citizens. They
have subscribed one hundred per cent
membership to the Junior Red Cross
in every instance and have done two
or more clean up days during the
year where the pupils have done
much toward bettering appearance of
the grounds. In the high school the
students have INDUCED somewhat In
athletics though this has been quite
limited They have had several class
and inter-class debates, put on very
creditable school play, had two very
successful dances, several social par
ties In the school building, furnished
the local paper with school notes
nearly every week. indulged in sever
al essay and speaking contests and
have had several excellent student
body programs. In view OF these
things and many others not mention
led, we feel that criticism along these
lines is without foundation. We be-
lieve in this respect that we rank IA
vorably with other schools of the
same size. Right here let US urge
that all the patrons and friends boost
for the. schools, boost for education
in general and especially for educa-
ti0n in our own community. Always
have good word for the schools
and make 1t very unpopular for the
knocker. You have right to the
best; you have the best and all you
need to do is think 80 and act ac-
cordingly.
