A land he had never seen. How would he fit in
with the defeated German jugend of today
the bitter youngsters who had set out to con-
quer the world and lost? Will was not like them.
He was simple lad with an old fashioned Ger
man training in a peaceful occupation.
1t had always been the fathers dream that
his son would follow him in the Matchmaking
business. He had the hands, the eyes. the will
- like generations of Schmidts before him. But
now the old family tradition was shriveling be-
fore the fathers age, the sons uncertain future.
lHIs fact hurt more than anything else. If
there were only something he could do. What
was it the American major had said? There is
nothing father will not do for his son..
Emma Schmidt, crippled with arthritis, sat
alone in her room. Wilhelm, she had said, not
word to Will about my pain. Only that have
the grippe and cannot leave the house for few
days. Tell him to be good boy, not to get mixed
up with all the trouble in Germany. And the
socks knitted, Wilhelm, give him those, and
the American cigarettes and the kachen
BY now. she thought, the father and son would
be together. All, not to see her son for one mo-
ment u after he had been gone for three years
before he was gone forever.
There was footstep on the stair.
"Wilhelmr she called
There was no answer. The step was unfamil-
lar no, she knew it! Suddenly Emma Schmidt's
heart was pounding and she realized what her
husband had done - that he was gone on the
Marnse Tiger.
The boy was coming toward her. will"
she cried. ''Oh, Wilt My boy! My baby!''

VERDICT. Ever since we heard that
postmen are bitten on an average of
II times year by dogs, we've wor-
RED for their life and limb. Now re
glad to learn that Detroit, at least,
has recently ruled that a dog is en-
titled to bite postman only once. If
he exceeds his quota, the postman
need not service the house any longer.

DISC0VEHY. We do not mean to
cast aspersions on crossword-puzzle
fans, but a California sanatorium for
alcoholics has made a careful study
of the ads that it placed in news

there was deluge of replies.
What's a two-letter word for sun

First Aid For Winter Injury In Garden

from the perennial border Or the
rock garden until the freezing
and thawing" season is over. On
the other hand, do not leave null
ches on too long. Mulches should
be removed as soon as the tops
of the plants start to grow.
Do not remove all the mulching
material at n time. Loosen il
at first with a spading fork to al
low air to circulate through it. A
week later remove the top layer,
as illustrated in the Garden-Graph
The following week gradually re-
move the rest of it.
It is a wise precaution to leave
a supply of mulch material in a
convenient place so that it can be
hastily spread back over tender
plants on cold nights or excessive
ly chilly spring days.
After mulches have been remov-
ed, take inventory in your garden
ito see what has succumbed te
dampness or cold. Order replace.
ments at once for early planting.
