Britain and France Won the
Greatest Naval Battle of
The War Thus Far.

Montevideo, Uruguay, Dec. IT
The German pocket battleship,
Admiral Graf Spec, $19,OO0,0OO
worth of sleek fighting steel, was
blown up and sunk by her Nazi
crew late Sunday night at the
entrance to Montevideo harbor
while Allied warships waited just
over the horizon to pounce upon
the trapped and crippled sea-
raider. -. =. :
The Graf Spec was destroyed
at 1850 p. m, on the personal or

seated in his reichancellory more
than 5000 miles away.
The sinking took place at lat

Santa Claus
BY Carlton Miller
4th Grade, w. J. School

Santa Comes just once each year
he's here;
We can have a Christmas tree
It's very pretty for us to see.
We get all kinds Of pretty toys
These he brings to good girls
and boys.
He knows when you are good or
bad.
If you've been mean, then
you'll be sad.
We want the snow at Christmas
time.
Our stockings hang up in a line.
Our Christmas tree has shining
lights
And is decorated with pretty
sights.
Santa comes travelling through
the snow.
Once on housetop, down the
chimney he'll go.

Farm Questions
And Answers

Question: Should I select
eggs of some definite weight for
Matching purposes?
ANSWER: Best results are al
ways obtained from eggs that
weigh "a ounces to the dozen, but
in addition to the weight, hatch
ign eggs should be clean, fresh,
well-formed, of good shell tex
ture, and of a color conforming
to the requirements of the breed.
Eggs that are round, small, short,
thin shelled, or those that have
ridges around them should be set
aside for home consumption and
not used for Matching. At this
time of the year, eggs for hatch
ing should be collected two or
three times day to prevent
chilling.
QUESTION: How much tobac-
CO seed is required for planting
a seed bed?
ANSWER: One ounce of seed
should be used to each 800 square
yards of bed. A more practical
measure is to use one tablespoon
full of recleaned seed to each
100 square yards. Mix the seed
thoroughly with cottonseed meal,
dry sand, ashes, or fertilizer be-
fore sowing. For an even stand,
half of the seed should be soWn in
one direction and the remaining
half across the bed at right an
giles to the first sowing.

sank beneath an enormous pail
of smoke and leaping flames:
The Graf Spec, one of Ger
many's three sea-raiding pocket
battleships, was scuttled appro-
ximately eight miles off the port
of Montevideo in the Plate river
because her 46-year-old captain
thin-faced Hans Langsdorff, real
lied the hopelessness of the odds
against them.
German officials said none of
the Graf Specs crew of nearly
900 persisted in the sinking, that
all OF them were put aboard the
nearby German tanker Tacoma or
removed at the last minute
aboard launches.
IF I cannot run the British
blockade I'll sink the Ship" said
Captain Langsdorff, a veteran of
the Battle Of Jutland where he
fought the British aboard the old
Croser Kurfuerst.
Captain Langsdorff rode away
across the River Plate toward
Buenos Aires in a motor launch
with group of his men, looking
back on his burning ship with
which he had terrorized merchant
shipping in the South Atlantic
for three months.
