I, for one, resented the
propaganda Of war days pic
turing the Germans as a race
of savages delighting in the
torture of women and chill
dren. I had never seen any
thing savage or inhuman In
the Germans I had known.
So with many others. But
the majority Of people in tn"
midst of war are quite ready
to ascribe any infamy to the
enemy. Thus when the war
came to an end the average
American was calling the
Germans "Huns and Van
dals."
Then, when our army of oc-
cupation marched into Ger
many and met the Germans
face to face, and in their
homes, reaction set in. The
soldiers knew that the Ger
mans had been lied about.
Then came the establish
ment of a democratic repub-
lie, and that was reassuring
to the world. And out of it
came some fine figures, like
Stresemann, who, unlike
those in charge Of foreign
affairs just before and
during the war, understood
the psychology Of the world
beyond the German borders.

ONCE OVERS
Profitable Leisure


You may be one of the many
who have a lot Of leisure, at
present.
What do you do with your
free time?
Make use of it, or waste it?
Ever try to review some Of
the work you did in school?
Many principles you have for
gotten, hence not useful to you
but might be worth much to
your advantage if you would
study up and refresh your
memory.
You might be surprised at the
interest you would find in going
over again those things you
had to pass" in school, and
have forgotten.
You are more mature, and
would get more out OF your
study.
You perhaps majored in some
thing that you have had no use
for, since you left school.
You liked the subject, did we'll
in it, but abandoned it long ago.
Begin again and make it a
hobby for leisure.
You may evolve some new
thoughts on the subject.
They might eventually be OF
pecuniary value to you-who
knows.
At least to keep your mind
active, and that is important.
Don't rust out because you
have leisure.
There are lots Of interesting
things to occupy ones mind.

Appreciation

If you cannot do anything
else worth while in the world
YOU can make life happier for
others by giving deserved COM
pliments occasionally.
Many a person is carrying on
day by day in some line OF
work for which there is little
financial return.
Possibly the remuneration
may be commensurate with the
effort.
But a word of commendation,
which costs nothing, sounds
pretty good.
If a burden is being carried,
it seems a great deal lighter
after hearing some words OF
praise for what is being done.
When a person is carrying
on to the limit of energy and
ability, there is something
pleasing in hearing that others
think the work well done.
Flattery is an empty thing:
Only the weak are stimulated
by flattery.
But. honest commendation Is
quite another matter.
It is the sort Of encourage
ment that creates the desire to
do a still better job.
There is a shortage Of COM
plimentS in this world.
Too few bouquets to the liv-
ing-too many for the dead.
How about giving comfort in
deserved compliments while the
person is well enough to appre-
ciate approval.
You like to be appreciated;
so do others.

Persecution Is Being
Savagely Denounced

And then the German
people, with an intolerable
burden on their backs, set
their teeth, and uncomplain-
ingly, settled down to work
hard work, long days. A
wave Of sympathy and admi-
ration swept over the world.
A casual reading Of the
world press shows that
within 10 days Germany out
side her borders has lost
much that she had gained.
Again we read in editorials
that the Germans are incapa-
BILE of understanding world
psychology. Again we hear
people saying, apropos Of the
mobbing of the Jews, the bit
ter things uttered in the
midst OF the war.
And Gilbert Chesterton in
savage satire returns with
zest to the old-time denun-
citation of "Prussianism" and
makes it synonymous with
Germanism.
Meanwhile throughout the
outside world, the medieval
persecution of the Jews in
Germany is being savagely
denounced, and no friend Of
Germany can think with
satisfaction of the hostile re

Making Laws of
The Country

A few days ago the demo
cratic republic Of Germany
passed out-when linden
burg, yielding to the de-
mands of Hitler, banished the
republican flag and made a
scrap Of paper Of the demo-
cratic constitution.
A program has now been
announced which makes one
man and his little group the
law makers Of a great nation.
They may make the laws as
they see fit and enforce them
with the sword if need be.
To enforce the DEGREES of a
masterful government that
need not consult the people,
concentration camps are to be
established in Bavaria, since
spokesmen of the new regime
announce that there are not
nearly enough jails and
prisons in Germany for the
incarceration Of polite C a |
prisoners.
Meanwhile our own "pre-
cious" groups will be glad to
know that the freedom of
speech and the liberty Of the
press has been suppressed.

Persecution Of
Jewish People

There have been some in,
teresting scenes in Berlin
associated with distinguished
figures who are an honor to
the German nation and are
well known in this country.
On Sunday, Hitler's men
made a raid on the home of
Einstein. The pretext was
that the house was packed
with arms and ammunition.
Of course, nothing Of the
sort was found. The raid
ers triumphantly carried
away-a bread knife!
A few. days before, raid
had been made on the home
Of Lion Feuchtwanger, who
is one Of the glories of con-
temporary German litera-
ture. The manuscript of a
half finished novel, and
manuscripts Of other writers
that had been submitted to
the criticism Of the master,
were taken away and de-
stroyed.
The real explanation for
these two raids IS that both
these men are Jews. It is
no longer possible to ignore
the fact that one of the pur-
poses Of the new regime of
masterful men is the perse-
cution of the Jewish people.
Hitler does not have the
same opinion of the Jewish
intellect that Bismarck had.

Situation

It seems incredible from
this distance that linden
burg is in sympathy with or
responsible for the acts of
violence that have marred
the triumph of Hitler. 1t
is the opinion of Lion
Feuchtwanger that Hitler
personally had nothing to do
with it. It may be the old
story of a private army
fired by fanaticism and hate
being turned loose upon a
peace-loving population, and
getting out of hand. This
makes a serious, yes, a

That message was given to 100

j. 8. NAVY BAND
MARKS TENTH
BIRTHDAY
BY RONALD THORNE

Lieut.. Charles Benter and the
accomplished musicians of the
United States Navy Band last eve
ming marked the tenth anniversary
Of that notable organization with
p concert in recognition of the
occasion, presented in Constitu-
ton Hall.
The concert was divided into
two parts, one comprised of or
chestral numbers and the other of
band music. The first part
opened with a spirited rendition
pf LISTS Second Hungarian Rhap-
Sody, which was followed by Mos
kowski's "Valse Celebre," and then
q series of selections from three
symphonic works-the Largo from
DVorak's New World Symphony,
the first movement of Lalo's SYM
phonic Espagnole, with Musician
Rosenthal as solo violinist, and
the finale of Cesar Franck's D
minor symphony. The last work
was presented especially we'll, and
as one of the finest of all SYM
phonic works, it was most en-
6oyable.
The orchestral section of the
concert closed with a spirited
presentation of Ravels "Bolero."
Following the intermission came
the band numbers, notable among
them the "Mignon" overture and
grand scenes from the opera
andrea Chenier." A nautical
Fantasia, The Midshipmen,"
struck a popular chord. Musician
Ostrom was heard in a cornet
solo.

opinion Of those who witnessed the

they did secure two runs while the
representative of the Aids to Nav

With the Baltimore Orioles of 1880

Ell Fenix club went down to de-
feat last night under the MASTER
full pitching of Nestor Hernandez,
who held Castillo's bunch to one
lone score due to a wild throw by
Aretedes Castro, zacharias third
baseman in the third inning.
Hernandez should have also
scored no-hit game. The only
hit made by the Fenix, very
scratchy one, came in the last half
5Of the ninth when Calleja hit a
slow grounder down to shortfield.
Leon was q little too slow in field
ing the bali and when he made the
throw the batter was already on
first base. AS there was no tumble
or no over throw, the batter was
credited with hit therefore spoil
ing Nestor's chances of setting a
record which no diamondbalI pitch
er has accomplished as yet.
Fuzzy Niece, although he
lost. 5 to |, hurled a nice game for
the losers. He allowed but eight
hits.
There's little question coming
up as to whether last nights game
win be recognized as an official
league game or not since both
clubs used outside players.
