SIDELIGHTS ON \
EUROPEAN WAR,
t —ι
By WILLIAM O. SHEPHERD.
(tJnlted Press Staff Correspondent.)
Balonlko. Greece, Dec 80 (by mall)—
At last Salonika Is spy proof. To
make it so has been a tough and a
lone job. Qen. Sarrall settled It all to
day in one grand cleanup that was
full of exciting Incidents.
Ever since the allies camâ to Sa
lonika spies have been here. The
German, Austro-Hungarlan, Bulga
rian and Ottoman consulates have
been open, as usual; the Salonika res
idents, represented by these consu
lates, have gone about their business:
end to see German officers, clad in
civilian clothes, dining at a table next
to British or French officers has been
no uncommon sight.
Many German and Austrian stran
gers also resided in the hotels. The
allies had no control over their com
ing or going. This situation was not
bo dangerous to the >ally forces so
long as they were flg/ting In Serbia,
but when the troops fell back Into
Greece and Salonika became head
nuarters for the fleld forces It was
_ necessary at once to remove from Sa
lonika nil enemy citizens and consular
representatives.
Salonika, as a military precaution,
had to be made an all-ally city. How
to do It was the question. The con
Mils would not go, their government
would not recall them; and so long
*s they remained their national would
not depart.
The beginning of the end came this
morning when a flock of three Ger
man aeroplanes soared over Salonika
und dropped forty bombs on the sur
rounding ramps. At noon the visit
was repeated. The warships In the
harbor fired shrapnel, but missed the
fliers. A lonely Bulgarian shepherd,
three miles out of town on a hillside
with his flock of sheep, was hit by
It German shell and he and five of his
iheep were killed.
While the second lot of German ae
roplanes was In the air, Gen. Sarrall
decided to get all the enemy citizen?
Dut of town as quickly as possible. It
required eight automobiles. Two car»
each went to the German, Austrian,
Bulgarian and Turkish consulates and
detachments of soldiers were placed
Ht all the entrances. A French of
ficer who entered the German consu
late wai met by Consul General Wal
lers with the remark:
"You have no right to lnvado Ger
man premises on Greek soil."
"The German Invaded Greek sol
with their aeroplanes this morning
monsieur," said the Frenchman. Th<
consulate was occupied by French
'>oldiers and Walters was taken tc
French headquarters with all his staff
Aat the B'tltrarian consulate the con
mi general was not in. When he ar
■
rived half an hour after the occupa
tion, he was stopped by a sentry.
"But I am the Bulgarian consul ,
general," he said, "and this Is my con
sulate."
"Ah! In that case I will take, in
your card." Within u Tew moments
the Bulgarian consul general received
word from a sentry that he would be
welcomed within his 'own consulate.
Entering, he found a French officer
sitting at his desk.
"What does monsieur desire?" ask
ed the Frenchman.
"I am the Bulgarian consul gener
al," replied the official.
"That Is very unfortunate," said
the officer, "for I am under orders to '
place the Bulgarian consul general I
under arrest." The Bulgarian's pro
test was formal. He rode to the
French headquarters In an automo
bile.
ι Thessalonlan crowds followed the
operations of the military men with
the greatest interest. There was
something of a rush of the crowd to
| ward the Austrian consulate, for word
I had gone abroad among the Salonica ι
! folk that the Austrians might put up j
' a flght. A few French soldiers with ι
i rifles were about the place but the |
crowd saw an officer go Into the con- ι
I sulate and shortly return with the
I consul general of Austro-Hungary,
I who climbed Into an automobile and
! sped to French headquarters.
I Word got around after this that the {
ι consul general of Turkey had a harem j
and that the French and British were
ι going to raid It. This rumor perhaps j
accounted for the fact that the lurgest j
I crowd of all etood about the Turkish j
ι consulate. It developed that there I
j was no harem there, the Ottoman τ
consul general being a bachelor who '
ι was reared in Paris. He came down
the steps with a French officer, chat
ting gaily in French and took his auto
ride to Oeneral Sarrall's headquarters.
All the dependants and assistants j
of the four consulates numbered fifty- '
two men and six women. They wye ,
all put on a boat, bound, it is pre
sumed at this writing, for Athens.
General Sarrall then sent an auto
mobile to the American consulate and
begged that John B. Kehl, the Amer
ican consul—(all the other govern
mental representatives in Salonica
were consul generals and Kehl is the
most poorly paid of them all )—con
fer with him as to taking over the
enemy consulates. Within a few hours
Kehl was on the job and in possession
of most of the archives and all the
money the military had seized In the
consulates. He immediately began the
task of giving passports to German,
Bulgarian. Turkish and Austrian citi
zens to depart from Salonica.

The story of how the Temple Uni

who were members of the Grace Bap
tist church, of which Dr. Conwell is
the pastor, wanted to know if there
was any way possible for them to re
ceive or acquire the educaton neces
sary to prepare them for the ministry,
while they worked. They were past
twenty years of age and were obliged
to earn their own living, so they must
Kudy at night, if at all, and work dur

Dr. Conwell agreed to teach these
Coung men himself and appointed a
mo when they could come to his
Btudy to begin work. They arrived
punctually and brought with them Ave
Dther young men who were as enger
for the knowledge as they were, and
here -began what in after years was
destined to become the Temple Uni

tions in America for the education,

who must earn their own way and pay

1IST0RY OF IL S.
\ND PREPAREDNESS
\re Americans Justifiedly
Self-Conceited in Regard to
Ability to Whip Any Enemy.
By Paul V. Collins.
Spflal to il.r Λ > />.«;.vu .Yhrt'S.
Washington, D. C., Feb. 14.—Arc
\merlcans, as a race, unjustifledly
ielf-conceited In regard to their abll
ty to whip any enemy that might at
tack them? If so, what has caused
this over-confldence—or Is It based
upon the truth of history?
It is true that, in the American
Revolution, we were, ultimately, vie- '
torlous—after seven years of struggle,
aften to the verge of complete over
throw of the colonists' forces.
Is it true that. In the war of 1812,
we won a final victory—after repeat
ed disasters, Including the easy in- I
vasion of the country, the capture of
Washington and the burning of the
Capitol. j
The cost of unpreparedness, the !
loss of lives and property (due to
unpreparedness), the disasters of
early defeats and the prolongation of
the wars, because we were unready—
these facts are not told In any of our
school histories and are not realized
either by the young of today or by
those who were young "yesterday."
This accounts for much of the indif
ference or opposition to preparedness
existing today.
We must not forget that. In those
earlier days, there were no great
steam transports to carry vast armies
across the sea, as there are now. War.
like industry, was then α matter of
individual initiative and energy; to
day. ntither was nor industry is n
dlvfduallstlc; both are highly organ
ized and machine made, renditions
today cannot be compared with thoso
of the wilderness days.
It is true that we Invaded Mexico
and captured her capital: but who
that has seen the neon people of that
enslaved, half-civilized nation, cares
ιο tjoasi οι our suojugaung ιι ΐ
It is true that we drove degenerate
Spain out of Cuba and the Philip
pines, but Is that proof of our invin
cibility against α first class power?
We are "Some Nation." but, are we,
In a military sense, what our school
histories have taught us, from our
youth up, to believe? Are we the
"Great Unconquerable?" No.
TTpon an Atlantic steamer a few
years aero, a party of passengers were
listening to the autocrat of the deck—
a blustering Kngilshmnn, boasting of
how John Bull would come over
some day and whip Uncle Sam to a
standstill. A seemingly awotricken
young American girl, in timid voice,
gasued—"What? A train?"
But while we need not faint, at the
blustering of any forcitm foe. it Is w<Ml
for America to avoid the overconfl
dence inculcated by our too partis!
histories; lest we commit the fatal
blunder of unrestimatin" real perils
and the strength of po">nible enemies.
This Is the lesson that is urged in
Washington school circles today, since
the testimony was given to the Senate
Military Committee, by the historian,
Frederick ΙλιιΙβ Heldkoper, In which
— our school historian as
SChlevous.

tories. In the light of the lessons 01

In the war xone. We insure against
death. Are. storm and burelarv; ade
quate preparedness is only Insurance o.
the nation. But. the citizen who ii
educated to believe that the nation if
Invulnerable, Is certainly excusable lr
thinking it unnecessary to keep up tht
Insurance premiums.
It Is a commendable practice, in rec
v/-ars. for great universities of dif
ferent nations, to "swap" professorf
for a year, in order to broden the scopc
of teaching of the science and clas
les. It would be well for schools, per
sans, to swap text books, with slmilai
schools and to check up on historit
fables.
For example: A British gentleman
a few^ays airo, gravely recounted, foi
the writer's benefit, the "true story ot
the beginning of the American Rebel
lion. We were a bit surprised to find
how different it was from what w«
had supposed. Briefly related, here
was the British version:—
"There were two questionable char
acters In Boston. John Hancock and
Sam Adams. Hancock was collectoi
of the port of Boston, and had stolen
some $2.000 from the revenue fiinds.
He was a 'grafter,' and so was in
terested in keeping up the tax on tea,
so he could keen un his graft. Sam
Adams was a good-for-nothing fellow
about town. and. although the govern
ment offered »o reduce the tax on the
tea. Sam Adams stirred up a lot ol
hoodlums and they dumped the tea in
to the harbor.
"This knocked John Hancock out of
mis grau in uouecuntr tnr 'i"a tax.
but he still hart the J2.000 he
had stolen. and he wns afraid
he was going to be arrested. so
he and Sam Adams "skipped out" of
town and went out to Lexington to
dodge arrest.
"Then another fellow, a silversmith,
α friend and pal of Adams and Han
cock, named Paul Revere, hearing that
his friends were going to be arrested,
rode out to Lexington and told the
farmers all sorts of lies about the Brit
ish general.
"The next day General Gates wanted
to arrest Sam Adams and John Han
cock—the rowdy and grafter. He
marched 800 troops out to Lexington
to arrest these two men: the farmers
had become so excited by the stories
told by Hevere that they all came out
and fought the King's troops: and that
was the start of the "American Rebel
lion.' There wasn't any sense In the
trouble over that tea-tRx: It was only
a shilling a pound, and the Goverti
meht offered to reduce even that—but
the row was all stirred up by the
rowdy and grafter Adams and Han
cock, and that harum-scarum Paul
Revere.
"Then there was that street row tn
Boston. Some of the mob threw
stones at the British soldiers, and fin
ally the mob was dispersed. That's
all there was to that."
It Is well for us to "see ourselves as
others see us" even in their school
histories, for It reminds us to free our
own histories from their distortions of
the truth.
The greatest instance of the distor
tion of history, for home consumption,
doubtless. Is that "made In Germany;"
where the common people have been
kept In Ignorance of the causes and
motives that led to the present war,
ind aro made to believe It a war of
national self-defense. Instead of Im
perialistic agsrresslon for the glorlflca
lon of the houses of Hapsburg and
Hoheniollem.
For example: It is declared In Ger
many (and the declaration made
lolomnly as history, over the elgna
ures of nearly a hundred leading
icholars) that "Germany has not In
ured the life and nroperty of a single
3<;lglan citizen, without the bitterest
ielf-defense having made It neces
lary; and the German troops have
*>t treated Louvain brutally, M
barged."

the army had "not treated Louvaln J

Thus are historical lies told to de
ceive the people of the liar's own na

start with higher pay. There are
many other points of advantage which
are not understood by the public. The

All of the large ships have liands and
prartieally every ship in the navy has

The necessary athletic gear being
furnished free. T'ncle Sam provide»
the means for saving money and al

eervice can join the Naval Reserves
and receive pay from the government
while working in a civilian. In fact,
there ore several of the largest corro
rations who state that they will give
preference to Navn* Reserve men ap
plying for work. Names of these con
cerns will be cheerfully given to all
men who beloner to the naval reserves

The recruiting office for the recruit

any young man annlvlng for enlist
