derly ne'er-do-well, whose principal |
occupation is burglary!
It Is a New Crime.
Burglary in Holland was not a usual
crime in the pre-war days. That fact |
makes the of lawless- |
ness all the more striking. The great {
truth that has dawned upon the coun- |
try fis that the 800,000 Hollanders who
been doing military service
non-combatants since the beginning of
the war have come to hate work and
to hate having to provide for thelr
own living, after enjoying food, cloth-
ing and shelter at government expense
for nearly five years.
When Holland mobilized her young
middle-aged manhood and

months of the war, when there

brain to invade and despoil the Neth-
erlands as well as Belgium, the Dutch
of the families of the soldiers whom
she mobilized as well as for the sup-
port of the soldiers themselves.
In her Holland |
well-ordered house,
provided for the thousands of Belgian
and French refugees, who have lived
on the country's bounty from the day
of the siege of Antwerp to the day
that Marshal Foch handed his foun-
tain pen to the German armistice com-
missioners and said: “Sign!”
With the demobilization that began
during the latter days of last Novem-
ber the discharged soldiers found it
frksome to resyme their duties as fam-
ily providers instead of “letting wil-
helmina do it.” The plow did not ap-
peal nearly so much as the light field
equipment along the frontier. The
long hikes along the towpaths were
not nearly so attractive as the short
stretches between sentry posts on the
porder between Holland's eastern
provinces and the Westphalian or
Prussian country. It was found a
hard matter to get the Hollander back
into a civilian job, not because the job
was not there but because the erst-
while thrifty Dutchman no longer
cared for the job.
Food Shortage a Cause.
For many months now life for the
law-abiding Dutchman and his family
has been anything but a paradise and
the shortage of food has been but a
small matter in the grand total of this
general unhappiness.
The principal thing that has been
worrying Holland has been the bur-
olar, who has since before the Christ-
mas holidays become a sort of nation-
al institution, like the cheese and the
ein. Acts of violence are of daily, in
fact, of hourly, occurrence in the
districts as well as in the
cities. Not alone must doors be se-
curely locked and bolted at night, but
if during the daytime the household-
er turns his back to look over his
chickens in the barnyard without first

| This
| a burglar’s paradise.
While, of course, It would be unfair
to say that every one of the demobil-
1zed soldiers has turned burglar after
receiving his discharge from the army,
it is safe to say that one-half of the
800,000 troops has turned its atten:
tion to either burglary, petty or grand |
larceny or highway robbery as a
means to keep the wolf from the door
without an undue amount of physical
exertion.
The visitor In Holland, although he
{s still much in the ininority because
of the passport restrictions, has
learned to keep his hand on his wal
let pocket and his fingers firmly
around the end of a stout cane when-
ever he ventures out into the street
or along a country path, once Hol-
land's delight and the safest prome-
nade in the wide world.
Daring Highway Robberies.
The “kwajongems,” who used to
stand in proper awe of the well- |
dressed man or woman in the public
thoroughfares of the city, now openly
and brazenly snatch at watch chains,
Indies’ bags or pocket books that are
carried in the hands by the ladles.
Nine times in ten the culprit manages
to make a clean getaway in the crowd
of sympathetie ruffians, who gather
quickly at the first sign of disorder
in the street.
Children sent to the stores by their
mothers are often the victims of the
thieves, who take away their pennies,
and market baskets on the way to the
very often go
expectant housewives
astray and ultimately reach the dens
of » underworld, now a real mensce |
in the economic and civic life of the
Netherlands
The same spirit of disregard of the
that throughout
as far as the rights o
conventions obtains
country,
others is concerned, obtains in the na-
tlon’s parlinment—the Staaten Gens
eraal. Ultra-bolshevistic members oc-
cupy seats in the lower chamber and
openly advocate doctrines which, a
year before the war began in 1914,
would not have been listened to by any
self-respecting Dutchman. The self-res
specting Dutchman must listen to
these doctrines now, for they are
preached on every street corner, from
the forums and from the platform of
the governing body, whenever the
radical wing gets a chance to give
voice to its sentiments.
Blocked at the Frontier.
The government does everything hu-
manly possible to prevent the influx of
the radical element from Germany
and every day dozens of would-be in-
truders, be they bolshevist or Sparti-
cus, are turned back at the frontier
with the admonition to go East. But
many slip through, with the result
that this formerly quiet, orderly land
is fast being poisoned by the seed of
violence that has been planted in its
fertile soil from the very day that the
one-time kaiser entered the country as
a refugee and the one-time crown
prince took up his involuntary abode
on the Island of Wieringen.
There 1s enough of the regular army
left to prevent any serious concerted
movement by the forces of the mal-
contents, especially as they are not
organized and no leader has yet put
in an appearance. The police in the
various districts, too, still observe the
street discipline of the pre-war days,
although they have not been very sucs
cessful in stamping out the lawless-
ness that is everywhere evident, they
are, at least, holding the unruly ele
ment in check and, to a certain des
gree, holding it in awe of municipal
authority.
The principal hope of the better
educated class of Hollanders lies in
an early restoration of the regular
channels of food importation.
Now Land of Unrest.
Just now the Hollander is anything
but tractable. He will drop his ham-
mer, his shovel, his hoe or his churn-
ing handle at the drop of a hat or
the whisper of a labor agitator. He |
imagines that he is the under dog of
every man who possesses a nickel
more than he does.
From a land of. calm, peaceful,
seething quiet, Holland has changed |
into a land of unrest, It oozes out of
the very ground at every step one
takes. Lack of grains keeps the grist
mills idle, which consequently fall to
provide work for those who might be
induced to take up the broken strands
of their tasks and don the snow white
of the miller for the blue of the sol-
dier. ;
Stagnation in shipping, owing to the {
restrictions placed upon the country |
by the allies, has had its natural ef- |
fect upon Holland's inland waterways |

sands of men who were employed
along the. numerous canals, both as]

war, now find their vocations gone.

CRYING FOR HELP
Lots of It in Mount Joy But Daily
Growing Less
The kidneys often cry for help.
Not another organ in the whole
body more delicately constructed;
Not one more important to health.
The kidneys are the filters of the
blood.
When they fail the blood becomes
foul and poisonous.
There can be no health where there
is poisoned blood.
Backache is one of the frequent in-
dications of kidney trouble.
i It is often the kidneys’ cry for
help. Heed it.
Read what Doan’s Kidney Pills
have done for overworked kidneys.
Read what Doan’s have done for
Mount Joy people.
Mrs. Irvin® Geistweit, West Main
street says: “Doan’s Kidney Pills
have been used in our family as far
back as I ean remember. My back
used to pain and ache, so I had to
have it rubbed. My kidneys became
weak and bothered me gn that ac-
count. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills
and certainly can say Without a
doubt, this medicine is the best I
know of. Doan’s gave me permanent
results and I haven’t had to use them
in a long time.” \
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mrs. Geistweit had. Foster-Milburn
