THE KALEIDOSCOPE A Pittsfield (Mass.) ‘man dug out of his garden all the flowers that had a young fel- “Kaiser” handle to their name or any- thing that smacked of the terrible . Teuton. The straight line is an abomination to the Chinese. They endeavor to avoid it 1n their streets and buildings, and have banished it completely where country field paths are concerned. An overturned milk pail and the sun’s rays caused a fire which destroyed the home of Henry Corner, at Overton, Pa., recently. The rays were deflected by the pail to the side of the building and the boards were ignited. German troops discovered the Ru- manian rada, or congress, expelling the members at the point of the bay- onet. The members were ordered to {hrow up their hands and did so. The | zovernment was declared to be at an end. A Lenox Dale (Mass.) woman, whose husband was one of the first of the i reservists to return to fight for his country and who was Killed, has bought a Liberty bond in each of the three issues although she has a child to support and works in a mill. Mauch Chunk (Pa.) is so qulet and orderly that the entire police force en- listed in the Marine corps. The force consisted of four men—Robert Mader, Clinton Mader, Charles Shutt and Chester Bisby.
