_"Will you walk into my parlour?" said the Kaiser to the Spy, "For I've lots of work to give you, and the pay is very high, And you've only got to send me a report from day to day, All about the English people, and the things they do and say._ _"There is Fritz and Franz and Josef, though their names you may not know, You may write to them and see them, but as 'Number So-and-So,' And should you meet your brother or your mother at the game, You are not to recognise them; they're numbers just the same._ _"You will travel through the country in the name of Henry Jones, Or as Donald P. McScotty, selling artificial stones; You will rent a modest dwelling in the shadow of a base, And when nobody is looking you will photograph the place._ * * * * * _"Then 'Hoch' unto your Kaiser, 'Am Tag' your daily cry, God bless our Krupps and Zeppelins, the victory is nigh. God bless our shells! and dum-dums! Kultur shall fight her way; God, Emperor, and Fatherland in one Almighty sway."_ FOOTNOTES: [Footnote 3: THIRTY MILES INLAND: MILITARY ORDERS TO EAST COAST ALIENS.--Notices to quit coastal towns adjoining the Tyneside district were yesterday served by the police on behalf of the military authorities upon persons regarded as undesirable residents. The people affected include enemy aliens and naturalised aliens of both sexes, also British-born descendants of aliens, including even the second generation. Exceptions have been made in cases of advanced age and extreme youthfulness. New addresses must be approved by the military. Notices were also served on German residents in Sunderland to leave the town and district and move into an area approved by the military authorities. The order applies to men, women, and children, whether naturalised or not, and must be obeyed within eight days. The approved area will be some inland place about thirty miles from the coast.--_Daily Mail_, December 30th, 1914.] THE END Printed by W. Mate & Sons, Ltd., Bournemouth.
