AMSTERDAM, June 27. German soldiers now arc required to ask their "Golt'' for forgiveness when their shots do not take effect against the allies. This is almost unbelievable, but it is true. The prayer which contains this bru tal plea is contained in a booklet prepared for army circulation by one Dietrich Volwerk. It is also circu lated among church congregations a! homo. The prayer reads : "Though tlio warrior's bread be scanty, do Thou work daily death and tenfold woe upon the enemy. ''Forgive merciful long snffer ing each ballet and blow which misses its mark! "Irfuul us not into the temptation of letting our wrath be too tame in carrying out Thy divine judgment. "Deliver us and our ally from tin infernal enemy and his servants on earth. "Thine is the kingdom, the German land: may we, by the nid of Thv steel clad hand, achieve the lame and the glory. Amen.'' Dietrich Vorwcrk. the roloctor of this prayer book and perhaps the au thor of this sharpshooters' prayer, is the mnn who wrote the words of the hymn in which the blessing of "fiott'' is asked upon the German "Cheru binen, Scpnphinon, Zcpeliiiin" (cher ubs, seraphs.

Another Gorman oflccr, arrogant and sarcastic, remarked: "Wo aro just starting with, tho Americans. Vo aro going to wipe out whole divisions, as if they wero com panies." - Tho Gorman privates wero less ar rogant and apporently wero glad they wero captured. One declared that tho Germans wore surprised at the Amer icans, who appeared so young, but fought liko dovil3 when they got started. Another declared: Yanks to End War. "Tho war will soon bo ended. Thcro aro too many Americans coming to Europe." This prisoner was a Trusslan, who had fought on tho Uuslan front. Ho confessed tho Germans woro prepar ing to attack tho Americans in Bel leau wood, when the American troops started their atuck. It was a surprise affair. Tho Americans came ono way and tho Gorman officers tried to forco their men forward tho other way.

Wo then camo upon a wheat flold and crossed in tho face of a withering shell and machine gun firo drovo bark the Germans at tho pojnt of thcbayoucL Huns Khout "Kamcrnd." "It was a wonderful sight. The Americans never hesitated and the sound of their thouU and whoops wero almost drowned by the German cries of 'Kamerad.' "To Germans got a few of our fel- Stan dadd Food v lows, hut wo made them pay dearly for overy one." Herbert E. Bartley of Anita, la., told about a wounded American forc ing a big German to lead tho way to tho rear of tho American Hues. When they reached tlio lines, tho American said quietly: . ' "Hero's-my prisoner." - .' The German nodded sheepishly and said: , "Yah." : ' ' Somo idea of tho fhoroncss with which tho American troops prepared for tho attack may ho gleaned from the fact that they fired approximately 5000 high explosives in ono hour. Tho Gorman lines wero torn up and the ground strewn with German dead and wounded. ' QUIET ON BATTLE FRONT.

With a vote tomorrow uncertain, interest in the fight over tho resolu tion increased. Seats in the senate galleries were at a premium tonight and an early rush was regarded sun;.
