" 'We are all servants,' she tells the reporters, 'some of us selfish ones, some unselfish. The unselfish ones will .save Germany if the selfish ones will let them. We should be a frugal people, and will need to be; but it will help us more than hurt us.' " 'I belieye that every woman should cook and sew, while every man should grow something good to eat.' 3 In addition to being canny inthe matter of finance and economy, it appears further that "the first lady of Germany"- is a first-class cook. In fact, we are led to believe that it was this quality that moved the fu- ture President to propose to her. As_ it appears:— "She first met Freiderich Ebert at Bremen. He was a flaming young radical in those days, with a gift for soap -box oratory and extravagant middle-class eloquence. He used to spout along the quays, haranguing the dock workers, and Louise used to linger on the outskirts of the crowd. (tad laugh at him. "She laughed at him: so much that ha was forced to laugh at himself, and that did him a lot of good. "And just at that critical moment he. discovered one day that Louise could make such an omelette, with t161115. "g0 they were marrieci.." There were six children, -.and what with ,financial failures and other vi- cissitudes, the family found lite more Or less of a struggle. Mr. Ebert discovered that slit saved money if she made her own and the family's Clothes, and itis said she hunted all the shops in Berlin for the food bar- gains. The sudden change in fortune did not turn. her head. "Fritz is a clever man," was all she said when informed by a neighbor that her hus- band had become head of the neW Government. And to a- newspaper man who interviewed her recently she said: "Fritz is a good man, and a clever man. The great trouble with the fatherland is that Fritz and all like him were prevented from serving earlier. We never grovelled before Prussianism, and we never Shouted with the proletariat. We were the solid, hard-working German peoplep and we had nothing to say at all. It was a great pity. "Yes, 1 prune his speeches some, times. Every man needs 'a woman to guide him a bit. I know they say stage-managed his career; suppos- ing I did—if I did—is it an un- worthy ambition, and should not the fatherland be glad of it?
