CLUB GIRL’S W O RK RESULTS IN BUILDING NEW HOME FOR FAM ILY EX-KAISER’S PALACE A CLUB Schlose Put to Use by Members sf British Army of Occupation Near Cologne. At P re-W ar Prices One of the ex-kaiser’ s castles has been put to good use for the time being, writes a correspondent in the Manchester Guardian. This is the Schloss Bruehl in a fair-si/^d town of that name near Cologne.
