"the German paper .here denied the report without waiting tor evidence w filch was furnished con - clusively the next day.

"But'be careful how you rail at citi zens of German descent." pleaded Mr. Rsuch. "Some of tnem are very sew . sitlve. You wound them deeper than you can understand when at this time you question their loyalty to America, i the country of their adoption." Harry H. Haynes and Dr. Elof T. Hedlund added stirring words to the . program's theme of patriotism. The Ad club quartet sang patriotic airs qf its own selection. Dr. E. K.
