Essential to Germanu

BERLIN, Jan. 2.-Germany must
make peace with the United States
this year or face complete ruin,
Foreign Minister Won Simons de-
clared in a New Year statement.
In response to the Tageblatt's re-
quest for a presentation Of his views
regarding Germany's prospects for
1921. Won Simons wrote:
The Sphinx of the coming wear
presents the German people with
three riddles.
First, how to- come to an under
standing with our former enemies
regarding our peace burdens.
Second, how to arrange relations
with the East.
Third, how can we gain an equal
right in the league of nations?
I'VE can solve none of these with
out peace with America, but they
must be solved within the year,
Otherwise, the Sphinx will throw us
into the abyss"

H0ratiO WallOps Richmond.

Horatio won a game over Richmond Wednesday afternoon at Horatio by a score of IS to nothing. At least that is what was reported to be the score, for scores were run in so fast we did not have time to count them. Horatlo played an air tight game, making very few errors, which Richmond made CT TOTS on most every play. The Rich mond batteries, Smoky Dunn and Sut- ton blew up in the early part of the game and were replaced by Mobley and Smith, but neither the outfield nor infield could give them any sup port. The game was finally abandoned in the sixth inning after Horatio had run in 12 scores in that inning and only two outs The batteries for Hor- atio were Smith and Cooksey. Smith pitched good game, using nothing but his famous "spit" ball.
