Wilhelm Lonely
But Religious
BY CARL ID. GROAT,

CHAPTER VI.

St1AE lEI v l.
DOORN. Holland (By mail to
United Press) .-Ex-Kaiser Wilhelm
is still a very religious man.
He has church services regularly
at Haus Doom, getting for this pur-
pose German pastors of nearby cities
including Amsterdam and the
Hague, to say nothing OF his close
friend and former court pastor, DR..
Dryander OF Berlin.
Dryander Is a frequent guest at
Doom and holds divine services
whenever he comes.
He is supposed TO be more in the
Kaiser's confidence than anyone
else. not excluding the Kaiser's own
family.
Wilhelm also likes music, but does
not have much of It. On one or two
occasions a special orchestra has
come to him from Germany to rem
der a classical program.
The Kaiser never attends the local
churches. nor participates in the So
cial diversion of the village.

No Law

There is no law compelling US to
read the books we think are rot;
so it is vail to raise a fuss because
such books don't hit the spot. For
there are books for every taste. and
we may choose the ones we like;
and it is vain our scorn to waste
on Author Pete or Author Mike.
There is no law compelling men to
sit through lectures long and fat,
so why assail with tongue or pen
the evenings wordy acrobat? There
is no law requiring gents to hear
sermon or play, SO it is vain to
raise laments when to our homes we
wend away. We mark the poet with
his harp, and say he should be saw
ing wood; we like to beef and kick
and carp, and punk things please US
more than good. We go to concert
or to show like martyrs who must
bear their cross; quite we'll before
we start we know that it will be a
total loss. But, oh, it is pleasant
thing to roast the artists one by
,one, to say such people always sing
when we're not furnished with a
gun. We're fussing, knocking all
the time, denouncing' things that do
not please; the latest noyel is a
crime, yon painting makes US think
OF cheese. Methinks if we were
truly wise our troubled souls might
find some rest; there is no law re-
quiring guys to stand for things that
they dctest.
