KAHN, Banker, New York ib on I was born in Germany; I served in the German 5 army. I was closely connected with German business in- | \ terests until the outbreak of this war. I know Germany Ww and I know the real causes of this war, Thirty years ago almost to the day—Germany began laying her plans for world conquest. The true German saw this wat coming and fought against it, but there was no chance against the system. I know of my personal knowledge that the stage was | sot for it about seven years ago, in connection with the Agadir episode. 1 know that the pan-Germans in 1911 meant to have a footing in South America and had prepared plans to threaten this very country of ours. In 1918 Austria planned to conquer | Serbia and so informed Italy, then her ally. { The spirit which brought about this war was expr ssed by Nietzsche, a | tferman who wrote years before the war started, the following: “You shall love peace as a means to prepare for new war. You say | hat a good canse may hallow even war, but 1 say to you that it is a good war which hallows every cause.” And the newspaper Vorwaerts before the war started declared: “The Camarilla of war lords is working with absolute, unscrupulous means to arry out their fearful designs to precipitate a world war.” Americans of German blood know that it was not the old Germany— "which we are proud—that brought about war, but the German system. The world has been hurt within these past three years as it was never hurt before. In the alo my and accusing procession of infinite sorrow and pain which was started on that thrice accursed day of July, 1914, the hurt nflicted on Americans of German descent takes its tragically rightful | place.

Exhibition of Woodland Chivalry That Impressed Hunters in the Florida Everglades So Much They Spared the Victor's Life. A couple of hunters on the border of the Florida Everglades were sur- wrised to hear the wild snorts and whistles of a buck in fight, mingled with the plaintive bleats of a doe in distress—a combination of sounds that was unaccountable. The men crept | cautiously up, and in five minutes reached the edge of an open glade. In the center crouched a doe, wild with terror. By her side was a fawn i only a few hours old, still too weak to follow its mother, while the old buck, with bristling hair, and antlers lowered, stood by, snorting in rage and defiance. His eyes, green with rage, followed some object moving in the palmetto scrub on the border of the glade. Looking carefully, the hunters saw a young panther passing backward and forward in an effort to turn the flank of the defense and get at the fawn. A wiser beast would have aban- doned the attack &s soon as such a defender went on guard, but this panther was evidently in the full flush of his first strength, and without ex- perience of the prowess of an old buck at bay. Forward and back he crawled, spit- ting and snarling, only to find the buck always between him and the doe. At last he crouched for the spring. The buck, snorting grimly, braced all his muscles for the coming crash; he appreciated his danger, but dared the worst. The doe whimpered and closed | her eyes, but did not desert her fawn. The panther rose in the air and came down within ten feet of the buck. Then the buck went into the air, and falling with his feet together on the struggling cat, seemed to stab him Immediately the buck rose again and landed a dozen feet away. Then he lowered his head and plunged at the panther. There was a confusion of flying dirt and grass, and again the deer sprang away. There were now deep cuts on his head and neck, and his antlers were splashed with red. The panther now tried to creep away, but again the buck leaped, stab- bed with his feet together and sprang The cat now lay gasping, while the buck watched him with his hair stiffened into a mane and eyes that | nearly bulged from his head.

Praised for Devotion to Duty. When the city of Norfolk, Va., was threatened with the complete destruc- tion by fire of its thriving business section early in January, every avail- able fire-fighting force at hand and from nearby towns was called into the battle. At the height of the fire the enlisted men of the United States navy on duty at the navy yard and in the harbor were called on to help not only in subduing the flames but con- trolling the crowds. To a man they gave a splendid account of themselves. Among these men was John Joseph McLoughlin, a chief boatswain’s mate. Although he had worked all night, had narrow escapes and was drenched to the skin with ice-coid water, McLough- relief when it was of- duty continu- declined a and remained on until the danger was passed. this conspicuous service he has been commended by Secretary of the Navy McLoughlin enlisted in the navy New Yor?
