GERMANS ASKED TO GO BARE- FOOT

AMSTERDAM. May 28,—“Go bare- foot this summer and help the Father. land?" is the latest patriotic catch- word to be placarded in Germany.”

"In view of the alarming scarcity of leather, rich and poor alike should dispense with boots and shoes," says

“an explanation of the placard in the Rheinische Westfallsche Zeitung, of Essen. The old are urged to set an example for the young. ‘

"Why not walk on your bare feet this summer?" says the Zeitung. "Neither old nor young be ashamed to walk barefoot anywhere—at home. In the streets, at school. or in church."

You asked me to share with Oliver Gregory, but he was on leave when the parcel arrived and he never came back. as he was transfer- red to the 8th Siege Battery, the old 5th Battery that came from Charlotte- nwn.

Commodore Ledyard No._1_3_4_709

ENROLLMENT No.11

Will make the season 1918 at the owner‘s stable Montague. Terms:— Five dollars of time of first service and ten dollars additional when mare proves in foal. Commodore Ledyard fouled in 1901 was sired by Admiral Dewey the son of Bingen and Nancy flanks. Commodore’s dam was Lady Etheyhe by Jackdaw. Hence. it will he soon that no horse stands higher in point of breeding. As a sire, he stands without poor in the Maritime Provinces. In fact he has produced more race horses than all the other stallions confined standing for service today on P. E. Island. He is he sire of Bob Mac. 2131/4, Hilda S., .16, Or- well Belle, 2.19, Iona Girl 2.17%, Rox- light 2.17%. and 19 others in the 230 list, besides a host of others that have trotted in better time than standard time but wore successful in having their time suppressed. Commodore is now 17 years old and was never in such good condition as at the present time. He is at the age at which all great sires have transmitted their greatest number of trotters, as it Is an unquestionable fact that our great- est, sires beget more speed between 15 years and 22 years than they do before that age. Anyone owning a like- ly mare that wishes to get a colt with speed or a superb driver will run less risk of failure by breeding to Com- modore than in using those unpmved sires that owe their reputation to their owner's ability as boosters.
