In IiIh firlncip.il addrew of the day, mails at the mortiltif setlon, Mr. Wana- maker culled attention to the fact that not only Is this the store's anniversary, but the anniversary also of the beginning of the civil war.

"It Is devoted to Industrial vursults, the employing of thousands of capable people, receiving full wages, who enjoy therewith the organized, free, lndusttial dally education of a mental, moral, physical and vocational character through the usave of fixed hours of the day, erved for the imrpose of study, socia- bility, athletic exercina and mutual benefit.

In his address Mr. Appel, one nf the mado a detailed of the purposes and work of the university. h of American children of school age," ho said, "are at work without technical school training or ade- quate general education. Ix-s- s than of our adults are receiving edu- cation In our higher schools, colleges and universities. Out of these conditions has grown the American University of Trado and Applied Commerce. "This new kind of university alms to fit Jieople to work and to live with one another for mutual service.

"To meet tho first of these conditions tho John Wnnamaher Commercial Inst! tute, a body of tho store's youngor em ployces organized for tdiicatlonal pur poses, was established twenty-fiv- e years ago.

"No classical degrees are awarded," continued Mr. Appel. "Advancement of the student worknr In marked not by book leainiiiN- - but by llvlr.s work and Is rewarded by.

Here Is the astound Ing story of the return of the German raider known hitherto ns the Moewc to 'her Jioino fsjrt, Wllhelmshaven. The story Is told for the first time. The narrator Is a plain Yankee sailor, John Itrennnn of oulh Providence, It. I. On February 6, the Pen Wing the real name of the raider captured and sank the llrltlxh freighter 8.ion Prince. tlrennnn, one of the Saxon Prince's crew, was taken prisoner. He returned to America Inst Tuesday. Of the handful of men who ran the llrltlsh blockade of Germany and returned to Wlllielins-lmve- n, llrrnnan Is the first to reach this country, Itrenuan la a keen American salloi. Hi ir 37 yeais old nnd for twenty ears has sailed the seas In the ships of every civilized country. Jle was Imprisoned In a Herman detention camp. Later he wiu taken to lUrlln. Theio Ambassador Gerard helpid him and sent him bade to America. He sajs: "On October :! last In Hull, Cncland, I signed aboard tho Saxon Prince. She was a cargo stiamer of .1,471 net ton- nage. You'd call her a. tramp steamer. I want to make my story plain, so If I get talking the sea ask me to put it In terms )m laud folks understand. n Thought of Jlansrr, Of couise there was much talk of ftUhniulltie and mines. I wasn't lery much concerned, Having lived through storms that snapped the masts oft at the deck and smashed wheelliouses and rud- ders like eggshells the Idea of tho sm being dangeious didn't Impress tis sailor-me- n a lot Hut hud you told any of us that we were In danger of capture by a convened trader that couldn't do more than thirteen knots to save Itself we would have pushed you overboard. "Well, the Saxon Prince took on steel rails and fittings nt Mlddlesborough ami Iondop and called from 1mdon for ItuetiCH Ayres. Thrpe weexs later we arrlvixl In Hutnas Ayres. discharged and took on a light cargo of hides and cattle products for Santos and Hlo de Janeiro. In llrazlt. we loaded with coffee for New Orleans nnd In New Orleans we switched to grain and cotton, I forget the exact date, but It was about Feb ruary t that we left New Orleans for Hull. "About '. IT. on the morning of Feb ru.iry IT, we wer hailed by a German csel, A couple of guns spit at us and we prepared to drop the boats. They took us olY and let us stand on the deck of their lalder. so that we could see how they did it. They planted one of their lioinlw on the port side forward ami another forward on the starnoaro. Thev planted another aft. near No. 3 hatch. They touched It off and In thirty minutes the Saxon Prince disappeared with her new In the air. "Now mini! you. wo were only 700 milt west of Ireland. Those Germans were about em much worried as If th'r little raider wax the only ahlp In the world that mounted guns. Thoy talked nbout returning to Wllhelmsliaven with tho nlr of men who didn't know that there was n llrltlsh fleet, "Then enme my first surprise. With her guns hidden, her tanks filled so that she lay low In the water like a heavily (iargoed ship, she ran northeast until she sighted tho Lizard. Wo were told that the Pen Wing was going northward nnd back to Wllhelmshaven. Ho north she went. 1 don't know whether she went north of Iceland or got In between Iceland nnd Shetlands. Afterward. I nsked them how they did it. They shrugged , their shoulders, grinned and replied t 'My friend, we mn'ln while they were asleep.' 'The morning we arrived they brought us on deck. They laughed at our amaze- ment. We thought we would seo a llrltlsh cruiser nearby ready to take u, but there was nothing In sight except Wllhelmshaven and a doion German battleships, stripped for action and with steam nn nn tlimmli ready for a run. "They marched us through Wllhelm-hnve- n to a naval detention ramp. They took me to Ilremeti. At Bremen, Will lam Thomas Pee, the American Consul, gave me the necessary police pass to get to Rerun. "I arrived In Ilerlln on March IS. was taken to the offices of Ambassador Gerard. I got my passport and left for flntterdam on the night or March is. I came hack to New ork on the New Amsterdam."

he said:"I nm glad that Mr. Wnnamnker has

undertaken this branch of Instruction foryoung men. 1 am told that some. l.liOOIn this store aro ready to go Into theservice, of their country within forty-eig- ht

hours. This is splendid."A labor leader speaking In Carnegie

There In a man without n country :an American citizen enjoying the liber-ties Inherited from our fathers, yetunmindful of his responsibilities. Hewould insist on his rights to the veryiasi idler. Dut ne would dodge his duty.

"Wc have heard much nf the rllitI of 'nun. The time has come to emphasize

me amies or man. Mr. Wanamaker Isteaching that doctrine In this wonderfulInstitution.''

Dr. James C. figbtrt. representing Co-lumbia University In tho absence of Dr..Nicholas Murray Hutler, told his hear-ers that "many men are now engagedIn making instruments of destruction.Mr. Wanamaker Is doing a great con-structive work."

Dr. Marlon Riley, dean of llrvn MnwrCollege, said that as a girl of 12 years,sho had enumerated tho three greatestthings in Philadelphia as William Penn,independence Iln'.I and the Wanamakerstore. "And I seo no reason to changemy opinion now," she added.

Dr. Mary 11. Woolley, president ofMount Ilolyoke College, and Prof, Will-iam K. I.lngelbach of the University ofPennsylvania also mado addresses ofcongratulation.

Hermann 11. Kacuper was formally Installed ns director of education.

In IiIh firlncip.il addrew of the day,mails at the mortiltif setlon, Mr. Wana-maker culled attention to the fact thatnot only Is this the store's anniversary,but the anniversary also of the beginningof the civil war.

"Hod forbid that ever another warshould come in thin or any other coun-try." lie said, "but If It ever do-- n noAmerican, old or yomis, from South orNorth, will be slow to answer the call tothe colors which are so dear to us all.

Wo arewoi king out the audio Idea, with onlythis difference: that wo are planningthat tho United States fhall reap aharvest of healthy, educated, contentedmen and women tit for conditions peace-fi- ll

What the School Mean.In his address Mr. Appel, one nf the

mado a detailedof the purposes and work of

the university.h of American children

of school age," ho said, "are at workwithout technical school training or ade-

quate general education. Ix-s- s thanof our adults are receiving edu-

cation In our higher schools, colleges anduniversities. Out of these conditions hasgrown the American University of Tradoand Applied Commerce.

"This new kind of university alms tofit Jieople to work and to live with oneanother for mutual service. Modern con-ditions) of society force girls and boysInto the necessity of earning their ownlivelihood or of assisting In the maintenance of their homes before the agoof maturity, even before their commonHchool education Is complete, and de-

mand steadily Increasing productivity,efficiency nnd earning power In thoworker that there may be means forhigher standards of living, shorter working hours and the uso of new leisure.

"To meet tho first of these conditionstho John Wnnamaher Commercial Inst!tute, a body of tho store's youngor employces organized for tdiicatlonal purposes, was established twenty-fiv- e yearsago. To meet the second condition theJohn Wanamaker storo established asnaft of Its obligation to society this unlverslty, oiTerlng to Its adult employesthe opportunity of continuing their edu-

cation while earning their own livelihood."

"No classical degrees are awarded,"continued Mr. Appel. "Advancement ofthe student worknr In marked not bybook leainiiiN- - but by llvlr.s work andIs rewarded by.

DOXK WHILE THEY SLEPT

ItosTON, April . Here Is the astoundIng story of the return of the Germanraider known hitherto ns the Moewc

to 'her Jioino fsjrt, Wllhelmshaven.The story Is told for the first time.

The narrator Is a plain Yankee sailor,John Itrennnn of oulh Providence, It. I.

On February 6, the Pen Wing the realname of the raider captured and sankthe llrltlxh freighter 8.ion Prince.tlrennnn, one of the Saxon Prince's crew,was taken prisoner. He returned toAmerica Inst Tuesday. Of the handfulof men who ran the llrltlsh blockade ofGermany and returned to Wlllielins-lmve- n,

llrrnnan Is the first to reach thiscountry,

Itrenuan la a keen American salloi. Hiir 37 yeais old nnd for twenty earshas sailed the seas In the ships of everycivilized country. Jle was Imprisoned In

a Herman detention camp. Later he wiutaken to lUrlln. Theio AmbassadorGerard helpid him and sent him bade toAmerica. He sajs:

"On October :! last In Hull, Cncland,I signed aboard tho Saxon Prince. Shewas a cargo stiamer of .1,471 net ton-nage. You'd call her a. tramp steamer.I want to make my story plain, so If I

get talking the sea ask me to put it Interms )m laud folks understand.

n Thought of Jlansrr,Of couise there was much talk of

ftUhniulltie and mines. I wasn't lerymuch concerned, Having lived throughstorms that snapped the masts oft at thedeck and smashed wheelliouses and rud-

ders like eggshells the Idea of tho smbeing dangeious didn't Impress tis sailor-me- n

a lot Hut hud you told any of usthat we were In danger of capture by aconvened trader that couldn't do morethan thirteen knots to save Itself wewould have pushed you overboard.

"Well, the Saxon Prince took on steelrails and fittings nt Mlddlesborough amiIondop and called from 1mdon forItuetiCH Ayres. Thrpe weexs later wearrlvixl In Hutnas Ayres. discharged andtook on a light cargo of hides and cattleproducts for Santos and Hlo de Janeiro.In llrazlt. we loaded with coffee forNew Orleans nnd In New Orleans weswitched to grain and cotton, I forgetthe exact date, but It was about February t that we left New Orleans forHull.

"About '. IT. on the morning of Febru.iry IT, we wer hailed by a Germancsel, A couple of guns spit at us and

we prepared to drop the boats. Theytook us olY and let us stand on the deckof their lalder. so that we could seehow they did it. They planted one oftheir lioinlw on the port side forwardami another forward on the starnoaro.Thev planted another aft. near No. 3hatch. They touched It off and In thirtyminutes the Saxon Prince disappearedwith her new In the air.

"Now mini! you. wo were only 700milt west of Ireland. Those Germans

were about em much worried as If th'rlittle raider wax the only ahlp In theworld that mounted guns. Thoy talkednbout returning to Wllhelmsliaven withtho nlr of men who didn't know thatthere was n llrltlsh fleet,

"Then enme my first surprise. Withher guns hidden, her tanks filled so thatshe lay low In the water like a heavily(iargoed ship, she ran northeast untilshe sighted tho Lizard. Wo were toldthat the Pen Wing was going northwardnnd back to Wllhelmshaven. Ho northshe went. 1 don't know whether shewent north of Iceland or got In betweenIceland nnd Shetlands. Afterward. Insked them how they did it. Theyshrugged , their shoulders, grinned andreplied t 'My friend, we mn'ln while theywere asleep.'

'The morning we arrived they broughtus on deck. They laughed at our amaze-ment. We thought we would seo allrltlsh cruiser nearby ready to take u,but there was nothing In sight exceptWllhelmshaven and a doion Germanbattleships, stripped for action and withsteam nn nn tlimmli ready for a run.

"They marched us through Wllhelm-hnve- n

to a naval detention ramp. Theytook me to Ilremeti. At Bremen, Willlam Thomas Pee, the American Consul,gave me the necessary police pass toget to Rerun.

"I arrived In Ilerlln on March IS.was taken to the offices of AmbassadorGerard. I got my passport and left forflntterdam on the night or March is.I came hack to New ork on the NewAmsterdam."

LA F0LLETTE WINS BY 2 VOTES.

tirta Caatrol ot Wlaronaln I'eie- -atra After Hard Kight.

Milwaukkk, April t. A big surprisemis Stirling when the final figures In the primary Mr delegates to theItepubllcau natlwial convention weretotalled.

The vote showed that Senator 1a Follette, heretofore considered beaten,would control the Wisconsin delegationby two votes.

The delegation will stand: Progressives, 14: conservatives, 12.

The return until to-d- gave gov.Phlllpp and his delegates a majorityof anywhere from four to fourteen.

The conservatives catrled the Indus-trial rontrts outside of Milwaukee, suchas ltelolt and Jnnesvllle, previously considered strong La Folktte territory. TheGovernor and his cnndldntes were believed to have a big majority In the outlying countlc-- , having shown strengththere. In previous electlot.

Hut as the returns came In the leadwas cut down, until figuresshowed that the Senator would controlthe delegation by two votes. Late thisAfternoon, when the returns began pour-ing In from the ncrrthern tier of counties, which went for 1 Follette nnd hisdelegates by overwhelming majorities,the Senator's v.ciory was assured. Inthis territory even the strongeit Pmcr..ve did not hope for more thanan even break.
