1000 German Prisoners Reach Cairo
LONDON, Dec. 3. One thousand Germans have arrived in Cairo en route to a prisoners’ camp. They are mainly cold, tired boys, thankful that they have finished the fighting. With the exception of clothing, the German equipment is excellent. Many of the prisoners are wearing thin "ersatz” uniforms, offering no protection from the biting desert winds. The prisoners say conditions are terrible and their comrades in Russia are better off. They do not understand how Tobruk held out. The Germans have nothing but contempt for the ■ Italians. They are grateful for the manner in which they have been treated since they were captured.
Eight H.C.’s For Kaitaia Breeder. A good line of Jerseys were inspected by the Jersey Breeders’ Selection Committee at the farm of Mr. H. M. Thompson, Pamapuria. He was awarded eight H.C.’s and three C's.
