CLOTHES GO SAILING AWAY
Luckv for Two Sergeants That
Abgndant Foliage Was Near
Floating gently down the stream
the Delaware to be exnet are two suits
of clothes belonging to police sergeants.
The clothing is in a motorboat which
may now he somewhere ner the Atlantic.
The raiment belongs to Sergeants Jo
seph H Hillegas nnd Thomas F. Burke,
of the Fourth and Yprk streets station.
They had an afternoon off yesterday
.-and went swimming in Rnncoeas creek
just where it emptied into the Dela
ware. The motorboat with their clothes
was anchored nearby.
Neither of the sergeants believe that
the boat was stolen by aquatic motor
bandits. They think that the tide was
too strong for tho anchor. At any rate
the boat had entirely disappeared when
they returned to their swimming base.
Tho men swam ashore and took
(shelter in trees near the water's edge.
From the friendly foliage, which for
tunately was abundant, they hailed a
farmer who loaned the men two suits
belonging to fnrm hands. If any pass-

t'nion officials claim there nre still

collective bargaining and pay them fair
wages."
At the union headqunrters, 1010 Arch

MRS. OAKLEY LAYS
CRUELTY TO BEER
Declares Constant Use of Alco
hol Led to Atrocities
by Germans
Constant ue of beer by the Germans
has made them cruel, according to Mrs.
Imogen B. Oakley, of the Gladstone,
who is piominent in civic betterment
movements.
In n discussjon of the subject she
said that while the amount of alcohol
in one glass of beer may be small, the
constant use of the beverage every day
for generations can hardly fail to pro
duce an alcoholized race. Jlrs. Oakley
said :
'The experience of the university stu
dents who drnnk beef steadily for n
whole day nnd did not get drunk is es
pecially interesting in the light of a
recent magazine article by a Harvard
professor. This professor is seeking a
leasonable explanation of the cruelty
of the German people a cruelty that
seems to be innnte, since it has shown
itself not only in the treatment nf the
Belgians, French and other victims of
national shrecklichkeit. but in the treat
ment the people accord to eacli other.
"We have abundant testimony of the
emeltv of the army officers to their men I
nnd of the men to one another, and the1
i.ii, .,n-f,nntnce nf snicidcs nmonc Ger -'

cruelty or cruel misunderstanding in
schools and families."
