SIEGFRIED’S SWORD IN BERLIN Weapon Had Long Been in German Capital, Though the Hero Was Really a Belgian. The theft of the sword from the statue of Siegfried in Berlin raises the question. What has Berlin to do with Slegfried’s sword or with Sieg- fried himself? That hero was no Prussian, but rather a Belgian—at any rate, a Netherlander—and it was a Burgundian princess that he mar- ried. In his day the Borussians were an obscure tribe and scarcely heard of in Burgundy and along the Rhine. Moreover, the difference in char- acter makes it hopelessly incongruous for the Prusslans of today to explolt Slegfried as one of their national he- roes. Hagen of Tromje would be more fit, chosen at the moment when he treacherously murders Slegfried, when he steals Kriemhilde’s fortune or when he brutally slays the infant Ortlieb. But Siegfried was honorable, Sleg- fried was brave. Siegfried was chival- ric, Siegfried was not a Hohenzollern, To exploit Siegfried and his Bal- mung as emblematic of Prussia, or in- deed of the Germany of today, fs gross impertinence perhaps. It is well that the sword is gome. The statue itselt should follow it into retirement from a place where it does not belong, ~—New York Tribune. And Now the “Finale.-Hopper.” That section of Manhattan called the Acropolis of America, extending from Riverside drive to Morningside Park, has a new designation for ultra-modern girls—"finale-hoppers.” They are the young women who are a year ahead of the present or think they are doing now what the rest of their sex will be doing at some time in the future, A finale-hopper is never in style. She is a trailblazer, a pathfinder. She an- ticlpates style. As soon as what she is doing is taken up and adopted by the crowd she c2ops it and turns to something else that is absolutely new That applies to wnusle, art, dancing dress and even slang. She Is ever oa the still hunt for anything fresh that has never before been done or known.—Raymond G. Carroll, in the Philadelphia Public Ledger. Valuable Weather Predictions.

WOODFILL WON HIS EMBLEMS | Honors Everywhere for Sergeant Whe Exterminated Machine Gun Nests and Many Germans. ‘When Sergt. Samuel Woodfill pays w he is given “the {reedom of the city.” It is no longer possible for him to travel merely as a “per- son.” The man who cleaned out three machine! gun’ mests and killed 19 Germans as a morning'a Job" found Jersey City, N.

The next day he charged over to New York city where, as guest of Supreme Court Judge McCook, he was welcomed from the Bronx to the Battery. V/oodfill says of his soldlerfather “that he learned about shootin' from him.” And he shifts all the credit for his heroic deeds to the government. “It was just the eficient tralning of the regular army,” he explains. He claims that his twenty years as “regu- lar’ should qualify him to speak. The sergeant wears his laurels well. He is striking in appearance and somewhat serious in nmnuner. He values even more highly than decora- tions the tribute of his vivaclous little wife, who clalms he is “peerless at kitchen police duty.” Redwood Trees of California. The famous redwood trees of Call- fornia have many uses. From them come hair dyes, insecticide and also the usual number of wood products. These trees attain their great age because they are non-resinous, They grow 060 feet before they branch, and their root growth is enormous, cover- ing a great expanse of earth. In manufacturing redwood produats there has always been a great waste until recently, when a machine was mvented which practically tears the fibess apart and produces a fine hair- like product, which is easlly converted Into wood pulp for papermaking. l ey ADDITIONAL WANT ADS ANTED—Saleslady for ready-to- wear and millinery, must be expe:- ienced, answer by letter to k T, care Pioneer. 3:3-11 SUBSCRIBE FOR THE DAILY PIONEER HAMMERSTEIN “Why Announce Your Marriage?” Would marriage be more successful if husbands and wives have separate es- tablishments?
