German idea.

“The German idea'of a good soldier Is one who breaks all the rules,” said Representative Roberts of Nevada. “The soldier who kills the most babies, murders the most women and poisons the most wells 4s the best soldier, ae cording to the German idea.' “The Germans remind me of the youth who said to his father: ' “‘Father, I have .saved ten dollars — the first money I ever saved in my life. Naturally I feel rather proud of myself.’ ’“Good !’ said the father. ’So yoft’ve saved ten dollars, eh? How did you do it?’ “‘Last night,’ the youth chuckled, •1 lost ten dollars in a poker game and then refused to square up.’ ”
