Of Course Ho Wants Money.
X oerman professor In whose f*m- * Uy * young Englishman wan living when the war broke out has now sent -to the boy’s father a bill which the London papers find amusing. The studeparture, on the outbreak of hostilities, was hurried, as can be Imagined, and he was for long quite busy as a soldier and officer fighting gyminn Now his proud parent is reminded that not only did the boy owe tom ething for board when he went away, but that he had made what custom counted a contract to continue boarding till the end of the scholastic bale year. Also, he requested to remit J English mopey, which the German proF; feasor prefers, evidently, to that of his / own country. / dThe episode is not quite as funny as tthe London papers seem to think it Is, Ntpr lodging and board received do cremate a debt, but the plea for recom- - panse for the broken contract is naive inth® true Teutonicway.—New York Times.
