GERMANY WITH TEARS

,UEhMAN WITH TEARS
There is a book everybody should
read called Germany With Tears
by Peter F. Wiener. It is col.
lection of letters. The first one is
written by a student in England
now in the army, writing to his Ger.
man professor at the university. II
tells him that his education untitled
him to deal with German people as
they actually are and was purely
sentimental and unrealistic ap.
proach to international relations
The professor pleads guilty and tries
to make amends by telling the truth
in this series of letters.
The appalling things to me are
the quotations which go back to
the time Of Bismarck and Fred
erick the Great, and have moth
ing to do with Hitler. But IL is
better to have these things out
In the open. All the people Of
any nation, no matter how they
have been conditioned, are new
er identical. But il you know
what the conditioning has been,
you can Judge the general re-
suits and prepare yourself for
the time that it will take and
the methods which will have to
be used to develop new men
tally and new characteristics in
Hitler's Germans.

Easy Cross Stitches

When ironing pulled sleeves,
fold the sleeve in halves, pulling
apart as it sticks. In this way
you can get down into the gathers
at the top. Iron it dry and you
will have a pretty pulled sleeve
when it is done.
If the sewing machine needle
will not penetrate heavy canvas,
try rubbing the canvas where it
is to be sewn with piece of soap.
Add a pinch of salt to your
cream before whipping.
When bed sheets become worn,
pillowcases may be made from
the best portions. Seams may be
sewed at the sides, if necessary.
To remove finger marks around
a doorway, use a cloth dipped in
kerosene and then wipe with a

Before working in the garden,
put soap under and around your

much easier to clean.
Leather never should be cleaned

L1D1CE WILL LIVE

In the morning paper one day I
read that, not satisfied with wiping
out the village of Lidice, the Ger
mans have gone further and killed
"a more people in the cities Of
Prague and Bruenn ''in reprisal."
It does not seem to cross their
minds that they are imprinting the
name of this village on the minds of
the people of the world. None of us
will ever forget a little village
named Lidice. Reprisals of this
kind only bring more reprisals, so
that it is an unending spiral of
murder.
How curious is the German men,
tally, that does not realize in giving
a dramatic incident of this kind to
the world it has stimulated imagi-
nations to the point where, I am
sure before long, there will be a play
written about this tragic village,
there will be a book in which this
name will be immortalized. It will
appear in current songs. People will
paint scenes from memory or imagi-
nation. What the Germans thought
to do away with forever, will be
remembered the world over and
lead perhaps to better understand
ing of the type of people we will
have to deal with when this war
is over in Central Europe.

UNITED NATIONS HEROES


Next morning, the President and
greeted the British and American
boys, whom the treasury depart
ment is sponsoring on a trip around
the country. The secretary of the
treasury came back from the coun-
try to be with them and the British
ambassador joined us on the porch.
I don't believe they enjoyed the pho
tographing any more than they have
enjoyed some of their experiences.
However, they must be a great
inspiration to some of the people
who greet them in different parts of
the country. These boys are SYM
Dol of the unity which exists between
Britain and us in the fight for free
dom. I hope that, before long, we
shall have added to their number
boys from China and Russia, be-
cause in this fight no one carries
the burden alone.
II is joint burden and will
continue to be in the future.
Such h0nors as we pay individu-
al heroes are really only sym.
Dol of what is due to heroic
youth throughout the world. We
should not only honor the rep
resentatives of the nations which
are fighting together today, but
also those who represent the
other united nations, for they
continue to fight in every way
which is possible in spite of the
occupation of their home terri
tory.
As one reads of the many mer-
chant ships which have been sunk,
I wonder if there should not be
some special medal of honor for the
men who man these ships. In some
cases they run even greater risks
than the boys in the regular army
and navy. When we realize that,
over and over again, they land from
one torpedoed ship and as soon as
they recover from wounds or expo
sure, they start out on another trip;
we can hardly fail to pay homage
for supreme courage.
That night we saw a moving pic
ture, Mrs. Miniver." Because ev-
erybody had spoken so highly of it,
I was rather prepared for dis
appointment. Instead, it is better
than ! imagined possible-a sermon,
and charming and beautiful one.

After lunch one day I went right to
the cathedral to hear the young
organist, Mr.. Paul Galloway, who
has been so successful in training a
chorus of war workers, in addition
to his work at the cathedral. He is
a delicate looking young man. Since
he has lately been drafted, he will
be in the service before long. ] only
hope that his gift of music win give
as much pleasure there as it has to

come in excess of 1924 for each
taxable year beginning next Janu-
airy /. If husband and wife each
make over 1924 annually, each
would have the deduction.
Beginning January !, en-
ployers will deduct 5 per cent Of
wages and salaries over Sl2 a

settlement at the end Of the year.
a postwar refund is allowed.
This is . per cent of the victory
tax for a single person and 40 per
cent for a married person. with
an additional 2 per cent for each
dependent.
Provision is made, however. for
