LIES REPAID HIS DECORATIONS, IS WILHELM'S WAIL
Would Have Acted Differently if He Had Know the Truth, He Declares. AMERONGEN, July 23 "I have been covered with lies. I covered my Generals, both at the front and behind the lines, -with decorations, and they covered me with lies. If I had been told the truth I would have acted differently."
Thus Is the bitter plaint of former Kaiser Wllhelm II, according to recent
visitors at the castle. It amounts al
most to monomania, they say, being
the burden of all convensatlon he carries on, no matter with whom.
The former Kaiser's periods of loquacity are followed by outbreaks of religious hysteria, during which he
passes hours alone praying and singing psalms. His erratlcism embarrasses even his admirers greatly.
The former Emperor has broken off relations absolutely with his oldest son, former Crown Prince Frederick
William, though the latter corresponds regularly with the former Em
press. No word, however, passes be
tween father and son.

Drunks Gone; Can't Use 'em
to Work on City's Streets In spite of the fact that the city can no longer use county prisoners for work on the streets, the county Jail being nearly empty because of prohibition, the streets are In much better
condition now than they were several years ago, when gangs of prisoners, most of them men who had received short sentences for drunkenness, public intoxication, worked on the streets of the city. Prohibition has forced the city to pay for all of its labor, and labor has been extremely scarce this year, according to the city street commissioner. Never the less, the streets are being cared for in the best manner possible, and with possibly one exception every street in the city is in better condition than it was when prison gangs were used on them, he said.
1ST NATIONAL BANK HAS FARM SERVICE
LESLIE HART MADE BOSINESS MANAGER AT CITY SCHOOLS
Several important appointments, including that of Leslie E. Hart, now manager of the Kresge Five and Ten Sent store, to the position of business manager of the Richmond public
schools, were made by the board of
education in a called session at the High school building Tuesday evening.
Hart will fill a position which the
board of education has been considering for two or three years, it is said.
The business of the schools has grown much heavier during the last few years and a general manager to take
care of all the buying and supplies, to have charge of the janitors and superintend all improvements and addi
tions Is greatly needed. Hart will take
full charge of this work, thus relieving
the superintendent, who will be able
to devote his entire time to the educa
tional side of the superintendency.
Other appointments made Tuesday
evening were: Miss Alice Laning,
ungnsn department or the high school:
Floyd McRanahan, head of the high
school English department; W. B
Miller, appointed to resume his work
at Garfield school. Miller has been with the A. E. F. in France for the

Fish Hogs Seine County's
Bass, Says John Holaday
Lack of sufficient protection by fish and game wardens and the ille
gal usue of seines in the streams of
the counuty, has caused a considera
ble loss of good fishing in Wayne
county, according to J. F. Holaday, of the Wayne County Fish and Game
association.
Several years ago the association
stocked practically every stream in
the county with bass, of both the large
and small mouthed varieties, and
these are now ready to be caught. Nu
merous persons nave been using
seines ana nave maae Dass very scarce in some of the streams. Ina
bility to gt a game warden for the
county has caused this practice to
continue, fishermen say.
