'With four sons mt-ing death upomthe battlefield, ner only daughteris happiness at stake through her husband, the l’rince of C-un1berland's _purt_ in _thc combat _of “Tcuton against the world." the Gel"- luan Empress is the' most unhappy wo- man in Germany today. From the tliick -of , battle into the retreat of thlsj wife, the Kaiserln, the mother of `Ilo_henzollcrn princes, comes the torluringnéws of reported injuries, of wihlspered death of ber sons, ol' destruction and of carnage. For even imperial guards cannot stop the insidious entrance of Rumor. The stories ol' the Emperors mel- anchol_v, his weariness, his discourage- ment ull the Kaiserin with grief. And most astounding ol' all acts is the visit of the Kaiserin to the Social- ist's Hospital at Konlgsberg, an act regarded an unbelievable by the Ger- mans. During the past few days the Empress has visited the Provinces of lireslau and Posen also. But _her ap- pearance at General Headquarters where she had-manifested such deep interest in tuoans of aiding t_he` suf- ferers upon the field of battle has sh`ov/ed how deeply this wlfc of the Kaiser feels those blccdingwwounds ot the natiotlsrsoldiers. . `_, 'l`hc sight of the Empress at Gener- al Headquarters ls indeed 'ono ot' the significant phases of won1nn's work in the war. Her institution of a course ot' lecture's' on war surgery is a decisive ami constructive help. _These lectures given by thc Surgeon Payr are for the benefit of oilicers, as well us for the medical and surgical corps. And no auditor is more inter- ested nor better versed today in thc care ol' wounds by different. kinds of bullets ami projoctiles than the Kai- serin ol' Germany herself. The surgical conference at General Headquarters where the Empress has planned the lectures and the hospital where the personal work and interest ol' the Empress is known and scenes of reverent admiration. For this imperial wife who has hitherto been in obscur- ity, acts now upon her own initiative. Stories of Emperor \Villiam's sleep- lcssnsss have been told but the face of the Empress also shows signs ot' ln- soniniu_ What her suilerings ns a 'wife and mother must. be she performs these vicarious acts ol` kindness to wound- ed soldiers ls felt by all who seo hor. For with hor own sorts `w'ounded and hcr hut-lbaud's life constantly iu danger with tht: i‘rowu ltrincc a mark for tho enemies. her fnmily uml hcl' country mcnaccd, thc Empress of Germany is a most unhappy woman. ' Throughout her married life tho wife of the Kal:-:er has lived far frmn thc public. A wire ami a mother has been her ticld. Ami whatever activi- ties the Empress has manifested have been through her religion. Never oh- struding in public or state affairs she has been n _power in _tho _Lutheran cl\urcl_t. The court preacher, Pastor Stoeckor, has i`ouml in the Empress an inficfatlgablc worker in thc' _nusc of Christianity. Ami it is this very Christianity which is causing the Em- press such torture when sho gazes ul)- on the picture of suffering. Today no doubt, this Empress of Germany. as she gazesover the lino of wounded mon, locks back upon hor en- trance ns a bride into Ilerlin.

The committee of arrangements have been untiring in their efforts to pro- vide a programme that will be i'ull ot' interest for those attending. This is the one yearly opportunity for P. E. Islanders of greater Boston to meet and renew old acquaintances and spend a very enjoyable evening. The proceeds of this affair will go to the sick and death bcncilt fund, for this Association pays it wcckly sick benefit and a death benefit. As the drain on the fund has been very heavy this year it is hoped that P. E. Islanders will respond in large numbers and a substantial sum be added to' the fund. As this is purely a Princc Edward ls- lund organization and in worthy oi` thc hearty support. of the sons and dangli- tcrs of title province residing in greater Boston. At 8.30 a splendid concert is to bcgivcn and after its conclusion, dancing will be inaugu- rated contiuuing until two o‘clock. The committee feels that the up-to- date facilities in Hibernian Building for bundling large gatherings will do away with the once crowding of fortit- cr years. Tho officers for the Associa- L.
