British seamen whose vessels have been torpedoed and who have thus had an opportunity to observe ths London of Germans bear testimony to this fact. In the 1 records of the subma- ys the Manchester Guard- offic , sa and again the submarine are described as “very de- pressed” or ‘‘very nervous.” Here is ane description: U | “Master and crew all agree and were very much struck by the pallid appearance of the offic and crew of the submarine and by their nervous and excited manner. The captain of the submarine was continually urging haste and the officer who was placing the bombs could hardly hold from the condition of nervous tension in which he appeared ta be.” One of the erew who had lived long in England, speaking to the boat's crew, cursed the war and wished it was over. In many cases the Germans tried to justify themselves or eéxcusé themselves to their fellow-seamen. Some of these reports show the hide- ousness of the German fighting sy tem, but they are all mild compared with the classic stary of German bestiality, as in the case of the Bel- glan Prince, where the men were ta. en on the submarine deck, their life- belts removed, and then it submerged. The men of onée three-masted schoon- er were left with only one our in their boat, and for this the master had to BUTTER 49", In the big wholesale mar- kets butter is divided into a balf dozen grades beginning with “extra creamery” and beg. the others being thrown over- down to ‘“imitation cream- board. er) i e o s p Income Tax Displeases.
