them for their profound Ignorance. It seems as if they had lived apart as far as actual knowledge of the outside world is concerned. They believed the war party propaganda like school boys. The German Is a stubborn mule when tt

comes to believing things and it Is impossible to show him ha is in error. Arguments are of no avail. If he believes ona way good night you can't show him any other. Kept In Ignorance for a century he Is a squarehead and a squarehead will remain. They aro incredulous when you tell them of America, wages, prices paid for food and clothing. They scout that we had an army of twenty million as well as a hundred other important facts. Want to Coma to TT. S. They want to move, here; they are figuring on debt-dodging now and I hope that congress will look Into the future and pass an Iron-clad Immigration bill. We have enough Hohenzollerr.s in America now to last us for quite a wh-.le. Rome of them ought to be deported instead of permitting others to be lmportd. The German women who after the nrmistice was signed started the hunger propaganda to the allied nation women will have to go way beck and sit noun. "Women and children hungry? That' all bosh and piffle. They may not be roiling in plenty, but the conditions under which th'-v are living is luxury Itself in comparison with the want and suffering their malvolence created Hi France, Roland. Serbia. Belgium and elseyhcre. They niver thought of the hungry French and Belgium women and children when they swept those countries like locusts. I see no starving women and children. Tha kiis ara as fat as butter balls. Women and Children rira. The adult German only thought o his own gluttonous appetite for food and lust. The doughboys agree with the Germans that the women and children of Germany should be succored, but that should come only after Trance and Bejr?um have been helped. Don't send cly food to Y.'ilhelmstrasse. Let the Junkers go eat grass. Th-y'll never do that though. They'll steal it from the women and children.

party. The vote surprised the old schoolmaster who thought the church party would poll a larger vote. It was different from the last Gary election I went through. Tou wouldn't know an election was taking rlace. The meetings were sombre as lectures. No flag waving or eagle-tail rinching as in the Mates. Even the applause was restrained. It seemed odd to see a man with three or four women toddling behind him going to the polls to vote. They would open their eyes at a rousing American election. Things are lively enough In Berlin however. Rioting there. Spartacans defeated. Well, let 'em go ahead and shoot each other if they want, a. few less we'll have to deal with one of these days. Lngland is taking the right steps in slow . demcblization. The German armie3 have not yet been demobilised Need to "Wax eli Tham. Ton r.ever know what the Hun has tip his sleeve. Impatience now might lose for us in a few days what it has taken months of saoriiice and heroism to win. I hope the aliies will remain strong and united in order 'that a firm settlement

will be made with the enemy and then when we know it is secure, back to our loved ones and homes. I had a cjueer experience recently which I haven't been able to dope out vet. Anyway I'm still trying to solve It. Ever since the flu raged in the A. E. F. and all over the V. S. the Germans were conned of spreading the contagion. Four of our outfit sleep In the schoolmaster's house. It is customary for the children to invite you to sit by the fire in the k'tchen at night and they sometimes cet out a bottle of wine for the boys. They are great people to ask questions, and quizzed us about the doctors in our outfit in Osann. I explained that our doctor, a major, was quartered in the hospital at Berncastel. The schoolmaster then inquired If many of the men had ben sick and what was the complaint. He rualsaed the Girl, I said. "Yes. a good many of them had the influenza, ' and emphasized influenza. At this the littie 14 year old girl, very bright and alert, leaned over to her mother and remarked in a whisper. "Mutter, influenza, influents." She

then repeated the remark !r a whispeto her sister who nudged her to bsilent. I watched them closely, trying to appear unconcerned and there were some black looks given the child. t thought I wouldn't drink the wine and didn't. We got up and left the kitchen

land when we got to our room we heard

the father beating the girl and some pretty gruff language. Xow why did that father Hck that bright girl for saying influensa in pure English when the rest of her remark was in German? There isn't a German who doesn't know That influenza Is and how to pronounce it. I have a lot of other funny things to tell you that I know the censor won't let me tell. I may be wronging these

, rpeple but I'm going to be on the safe

side. Well. I must say "30" for the rreser.t. Letters get here from 25 to 30 days after they are sent. Tried to get a caV.e through on 'Christmas but couldn't. I guess Mr. Creel was busy using the wire. More soon. CPL. L. J. FAKRT, Army of Occupation. Osann. Germany.
