Grrman "Efficiency" has never reached a higher plane than
in the foul desecration of the Keel Cross emblem in the bombing of
plainly marked hospitals in the n'lied lines.
Here are many allied olle ers and men," says the Kaiser.
"If they were not wounded, tin y might dodge our glorious air
planes as bombs are dropped. Being wounded, they cannot move,
and so they aie killed in their beds or in the air as their beds are
blown out from under them.
"Gott being with us, let us blow up all the Red Cross hospitals
we can."
So the "Greatest Mother in the World" remains a shining
mark for the "Superbedst's" efficient elimination of his enemies.
Since Allied airplanes have become tegular visitors to German
cities, the Kaiser has discovered such bombing to be a violation of
international law.

DR. WELCH RECALS
OLD CIRCUS DAYS
A letter from his son, Frank M.
Welch, publisher of the Stillwater,
Minn., Messenger, has recalled to 1 r.
M. ii. Welch incidents of olden days
when he was well acquainted with
noted circus men. The son had just
visited Die Mingling Mios. show.
lr. Welch as a small Ooy was a bare
back rider with Han Costello's famed
show. He knew well Han Mice, who
once gave out a newspaper story de
claring that electric lights endangered
the lives of those who used them. A
portion of the recent letter follows :
"Dear Had Well, 1 was over to see
the big show Monday and 1 had a right
good time. They surely have a big
show. The day was ideal, hot too hot.
After waiting around for about an
hour I finally saw Charley Mingling.
He ,is grey, anil much heavier than
when 1 met him last, !." years ago.
Alt'. T. is not with the show any more.
He has not been traveling for some
years, living in New York. Charley,
Mingling told me that he was over to
Stillwater the previous Sunday. I told
him 1 wished 1 had known he was com
ing. We did n ; -1 have very much tunc
to visit, as he was busy, had tu go
down town in response to a telegram,
Put he invited me to lunch, and so i
had the pleasure of eating in the b.g
airy outdoor dining ten. The folks all
looked alike and Jt st like other folks.
They had a rooster and lien helot g :ng
to the show that got a living trom
the tallies. Rather a unique idea. We
had frankfurters and potato salad, fruit,
bread and butter and coffee. They
have dinner at .1 p. in. ; this was only
lunch. 1 had quite a visit with the
boss of the cook house. He has a little
cflice tent, and was just sitting there
doing nothing. He lias been with the
show 21 years. His name is Webb, lie
said they are g. It ing along o. k. on the
food administration order. They have
a lutle less than 12tKi people with the
silo. The bunch is a little short on
account of the war hard to get work
ing men. My, they surely have a big
outfit M cais back with the show, just
ti'iirik of it: There are big dressing
tents along side the big top, where the
ballet master and the chorus dress.
They have a big spectacle "In Days ol
old," and it is very good. They have
,"i(M) people in this, and use calcium
lights to get the effects. They have
two big electric light outtits run by
gas engines. The baliet master has a
little tent of his own, too. 1 did not
get down to see the horses, as the
horse tents were two blocks away.
Charley Rooney is the new man in
charge. Delevan is dead, as you told
me, "
Clarence Brown (lets I uicue Relics
While in Portland last week Clarence
Mrown purchased from an old Confed
erate soldier, whose name he.dul not
learn, newspapers published before
and during the Civil war. The old .a
pers carry advertisements of Sales of
slaves. One of the papers was printed
on wall paper.
