TEACHER HELD PRISONER, NOW MIT HERE

Continued From Page One*

I was walking along the street, behind a little girl who was crying biiterly. I stopped lb ask her why she cried and noticed that she had rags around her wrists, 'fshe showed me that both hands had been cut off by the Huns. I have seen 80 to 100 lijttle French boys at one time with their right hands cut off. "People often ask me when the war will end. I tell them it will not end until the fluns arc beaten to their knees, and not a minute before then. They had announced on the 11th of August, 1914, that they would soon dine in Paris. I suspect some of them are dying for food, still waiting to dine in Paris. "When they came to our school they first took all our silver, leaving us not a knife nor a fork. They did it up infancy boxes and sent it to Germany to their wives and sweethearts. Then they carried our furniture away. After they took the furniture, they took our food. They said that of course the school had taught English before the war, which it had, but I hadn't svuoied it. They decided, however, to take me along as an interpreter. I knew if I could not translate they would shoot me so I took a big dictionary and, with some other girls, went daily to the state house to translates .They kept us there from early morning until late at night, translating. They didn't requirej that work—they only wanted to keep us busy. They had vis translate everything from a toothpick to an automobile.

The Kaiser Appetite.

"The Huns posted placards otie day that every pig in our locality should be given up to them the next morning. A widow came to our school, crying, saying that she had five children and difln't see how she could give up the pig. 1 told her she would probably ha^e to, or they would shoot her. It was very usual for them to line up 40 or 50 women when they had not complied with their demands- for food, blindfold them and shoot them down. The widow went home and the next morning she put her pig in the sitting room. The pig, not being accustomed to a sitting room, rustled around and made too much noise, so the widow finally killed it. She put it on a table, spread a white sheet over it. placed

flowers on it and candles about it, and had all the children kneei aoout in attitude of prayer. When the Huns came in and observed what Was "going on, they left immediately. The mother, who was in an adjoining room, had told her children to. say 'Yes, sir,' to every question that was put to tl^em, so when later one of the German officers returned and asked, "Is your mother dead?" they replied, 'Tes^slr.' He went away and left them in peace, and after he was gone there was a lively celebration about the pig, and the widow had enough meat for her family for the winter. "Another day the emperor came to TJTIe for dinner. He wanted a chicken dinner, and word wag sent out for all the chickens to be brought

In closing, Miss Lauler unfurled a small American flaf, which she said she wore in the days when America was neutral, and which she carries now because she loves it. She recited most feelingly "Your Flag and My Flag!-*

One of the very remarkable features of Miss Lauler's talk was th» Tact that what English she has learned, she has had to acquire since the war. She said it was the hardest language iri the world to study, and if her audience didn't believe her, they would attempt to study it.

She appeared on the Normal program again Thursday afternoon.

1 JITNEYS SUNDAY

E. C. Williams, president of the Jitney union, announced Thursday that all iitneys come off Sunday. There will be none running. The jitney""men agreed unaimously to obey the governments request that the consumption of gasoline on Sundays be eliminated.

said that he could not have the DO chickens we had at the sehopl. We put them in boxes, but- they were so noisy they could be heard Tor two blocks away. Finally, we took the:n into the music room, placed the boxes near the piano and for the entire afternoon three of us girls played and sang for the chickens while the Huns looked for them. "The German people did sot know that Italy had entered the war for a year after she was in. I saw it in a German newspaper a year after. The Huns would not know today that America had entered the war if they did not feel it. "Imagine anything you want to about the Huns, the worst' you can possibly imagine, and then you will know what they are doing.t Their deeds are indescribable. "But remember, if the Huns have cut out the hearts of little French children, they have not cut out the souls of the French people! The spirit of the allies are more steadfast today than they have ever been belure. 'They shall not pass.' "How much we owe to the American soldier, we cannot say. How he strengthened us when he came. And if we hadn't stopped them, the marines would have gone straight to Berlin in that first great rush.** /Emblem of Victory.
