EBERT FAMILY MODEST
According to the New York Times,
tie m.street of the German Presideo
t;ai residence is a comely hausfrau of
medium height aad slender, who up to
the p-teent time has always attended
to her own houeahofd duties, done
the family cooking, and hss even been
her own dressmaker. Frau Louise
Ebert, wife of tie President of the new
German Republic, was bom forty-five
years ago in a workingman's home In
Creme*. She views her new social en
vironment with resignation.
-I know we must be prejcared for
attack from the right and tie left."
she said in discussing the new posi
tion in which the Ebert family finds
tself. “Those coming from the left
will probably &e the worst. They will
charge us with attempting to extricate
seives from the caste in which we have
been reared, but that will never occur
Whatever may come we are going to
remain true to cur tradition as a plain
workman's family."
The eldest son of the family nas tak
en up newso3cer work. The second son
a youth of twenty, was recently dis
charged from the army. The only dau
ghier. Amelia, nineteen years of age.
unti a short time ago was employed
as a clerk by a down town firm. She
row accord* herself on occasion* the
privilege of rsding in the Presidential
motor car- President Ebert lest a sen
-n t**e eghting in Macedona and ano
ther in the Chemin des Dame* opera
tors. The family up to a short time
ag: had been living in a suburb of
Berlin, but sow is installed is official
apartments of the Department of the
In terser, which formerly were eccn
ped by high officials. The permanent
official residence of the sew President
has not teen determined upon, and as
P-es'dert Ebert has exp-essed aver
sion to the Bellevue Palace as such
residence on the ground that it is
-too impossible,"
Just hew the rewl/-elected President
and the first lady Of the land will ap
preach the solution of the various
■ complex questions facing them in their
new status has not yet been devel
oped. The question of official recep
tors is already worrying certain cir
cles in the capital, which contem
plate with some concern the shift
from the sp'esdsr of the Hohenzol’ern
’«»•«* to the threatened Jeffersonian
simplicity cf the new regime.

Py applying to the office at Camp
Fherman a soldier may receive infor

carticular day. the nature of the
work. hours per day, pay, etc. If he
selects one of these jobs, he is given
a card to the employment office in
the town and is there put In touch
wth the employer.
Information as to work in other

a so obtainable so that the soldier, if
-e desires to go to work in some
other city, can be directed to the em
ployment office there. information
-s to the labor needs is cleared each

the fo!der continues: liThefaet that
you may or may not have job to
go to has absolutely no bearing in
the ,matter of your discharge from
the 'Army. Soldiers will be released
st as rapidly as the personnel divi
sion can handle the task. No nor
hesitate, therefore, to tell the United

haven't work for fear that it will
mean a longer period in the Army,
•t will not. Though the general pol
:ey is to place worke-s in employ
—»nt in the communities in which
they live the Employment Service
keeps the tab on jobs everywhere and
is here to help you find work.”
