Ie STING LETTER
FRON; NATIVE CITIZEN
MR. GEORGE W. MISSEMER, OLD-
EST S OF THE LATE J. R.
MISSEMER, WRITES MR.
M. M. LEIB

The following interesting letter
was received a few days ago by Mr.
M. M. Leib, on West Donegal street.
The writer is Mr. George W. Mis-
semer, oldest son of the late J. R.
Missemer, of this place. Mr. Misse-
mer is editor of the Gazette, pub-
lished in Shanghi, China. At present
he is on a visit to New York City.
The letter follows:
Dear Mr. Leib:
“I arrived in this city several days
ago with my son after having tra-
versed China, Indo-China, Straits
Settlements, Ceylon, Port Said, Cario
Jerusalem and various other cities in
Palestine, such as Tiberias and
Nazareth (took an early morning
swim in the sea of Galilee), thence
to Syria stopping at Damascus, tra-
versing the mountains of Lebanon by
a modern rack-and-pinion railway.
thence taking a steamer from Bey
routh, which allowed a short visit to
Constantinople, the island of Rhodes.
Athens, and embarking at Naples,
where we visited the ruins of
peii and Vesuvius. Thence to Rome,
climbing to the dome of St. Peter's,
visiting the Museum of the Vatican
(it surpasses a'l possible expecta-
tions), thence a day or two each at
Florence, Venice and Milan. Thence
several days in Switzerland, finish-
ing off the European end with a week
each in Paris and London. I stayed
in a little chambre msublee a la voin
de la Rue St. Martin et la Boulevard
St. Martin. I didn’t have time to
employ vour pet phrase: “Voulez
vous m’embrasser, ma chere made-
moiselle,” but Paris is ful! of good
looking ones all right.
However, the most interesting
thing of the trip to me was the fol-
lowing: Several days out from Bey-
routh I overheard a group of French
soldiers—the boat was full of them
—speaking a most beautiful imita-
tion of Penna. Dutch. So I went up
to them to find out what it all meant.
The explanation was quite simple.
They came from A'sace. Whether
they had the French or German flag
over them was pretty much the same
so lied Litey nad to au cuipuisvi
military service in the army anyhow.
I said to one of them: “I don’t sup-
i pose the French officers like you to
speak this dialect.” His answer was
quite curt: “If they don’t, let them
learn it, the same as we have to
learn French.”
I became quite friendly with them
X I traced the origin of many a Penna.
: Dutch expression, which I couldn't
reconcile with my later studies in
German. For instance, the correct
German word for “inquisitive” is
“neugierig.” The Penna. Dutch use
a word that sounds like “‘gwunner-
fitzig”. The explanation is that in
the dialect two perfectly good Ger-
man words are used having a related
meaning but which are then lumped
together and mispronounced.

TWO MARIETTA
RESIDENTS INJURED

Thomas Bangert, an employe of
the Strickler and Hinkle quarry, east
of Marietta, is off duty nursing a
broken right arm. Mr. Bangert and
a number of men were engaged in
getting stone from a pile, when a
loose stone fell and struck a plank.
The plank rebounded and caught him
on the right side. Dr. T. E. Ingram
was summoned, and after dressing
his injuries he was taken to the Co-
lumbia hospital for treatment.
Bert Meckley, while assisting to
do some scaffold building, was ren-
dered unconscious by being struck
on the head with a board which fell
a distance of fifteen feet. A gash
was cut in his head, which required
several stitches to close. Dr. W. D
Danner was called and after render-
ing aid, took the injured man to his
home.

1923 Licenses Good Till March 1
Although owners’, drivers’, paid
drivers’ and operators’ licenses for
1923 are valid until March 1, 1924,
the Department of Highways daily
is receiving hundreds of applications
for 1924 licenses. The revised form
of application for these licenses will
not be ready for distribution until
some time in January due to a
change in the law made by the 1923
Legislature. Department officials re-
ported that thousands of applica-
tions for certificates of title, unac-
companied by the 1923 license fee,
are being received. In such cases it
will be necessary for persons to
wait until they receive an applica-
tion form describing the ear they
have titled before the 1924 license
can be issued, it was pointed out.
Upon receipts of this blank it will
be necessary for the applicant mere-
ly to sign his name, state the type
of lens used and attach the required
remittance.

ISSUE 15,184 LICENSES
TO LOCAL HUNTERS
Hunters are still coming to the
County Treasurer’s office. for licenses
and up to now there have'been issued
15,184. This is somewhat behind the
number granted last year. There are
several reasons assigned for this,
one being that the licenses were not
received at the local office until a
month later than usual, and another
is that most of the p'aces in the
country are placarded against gun-
ners. From now there will be but a
few issued as the season for big
game is almost over and all hunters
who contemplate going after it have
their licenses.
