PUNCH, OR THE LONDON CHARIVARI.
VOL. 152.

February 7th, 1917.


CHARIVARIA.
To celebrate his birthday, the KAISER arranged a theatrical performance,
entitled _The German Blacksmith_, of which he was part author. It is not

It is feared that we have sadly misjudged Greece. They have saluted the
Entente flags, and it is rumoured that KING CONSTANTINE is even prepared to
put out his tongue at the KAISER.

Chancellor BETHMANN-HOLLWEG has been accused by the Junker Press of selling
his countrymen to the Allies. But, to judge from the latest German Note to
America, the fact appears to be that he has simply given them away.
***
As the result of the cold snap, wild boars have made their appearance in

the KAISER has agreed with an American syndicate to be filmed in the _role_
of their destroyer, the proceeds to be devoted to the furtherance of the
league to enforce peace.
