(East) TAR AND GRAVEL APPARATUS Device Invented by New Jersey Manufacturer for Heating Materiais for Pavements.Emulating the famous hunter of the olden days who killed two birds with one stone, a New Jersey manufacturer has recently brought out a combination tar aud gravel heater that heats these two dissimilar materials quite independently but with one operation.The device, which is shown in the accompanying illustration, is particularly fitted for street paving where block pavements with tar joints are laid.The apparatus consists of two main parts, a rectangular tar kettle and a Y-shuped gravel bin, with a furnace extending beneath both parts, from one end to the other.The furnace is fired from the gravel end of the device.The smoke and gases escape through an ordinary stove pipe in the kettle end.The inside of the gruvel 21-GRAVEL BIN HOT GASES UNDER TAR KETTLE, AND UP OUT OF STACK FURNACE Combination Tar and Gravel Heating | Device in Operation.: heater is triangular shaped while the outside is made up in steps consisting of perforated metal plates.The Y- shaped top acts as a reservoir bin and the gravel feeds down the steps and out at the bottom.The perforations in the step plates allow the moisture in the gravel to escape readily as it 1s turned into steam by the heat of the fire, thereby making it possible to heat both tar and gravel.\u2014Popular Sclence

people who plant and cultivate trees by the roadside.Every person along or through whose lands a highway passes may plant and cultlyate on one or both sides of the road where he shall own land, trees of such varietles as commonly grow at least 40 feet high.These must be set two rods or less apart and in a row within eight feet of the outer line of the highway.When such trees reach 12 feet In height the superintendent of highways shall give the owner upon request a certificate accepting the trees as public shade trees, Thereafter they be- Tong to the public and are protected as public property, but the title to them or to the fruit they bear belongs to the owner as long as he maintains the trees and replaces such as die.The owner shall receive an annual rbounty of three cents for each rod of highway along which such trees are planted on one side and six cents If planted on both siues, to be credited on his highway taxes.BENEFIT-OF IMPROVED ROADS From Standpoint of Almighty Dollar It Pays Handsome Yearly Divl- dend to Farmer.Let everybody awaken to the importance of improving the public road, for improved roads will bring: Better schools and greater attenû- ance.Better health and quicker medical attention.Better farms and more cultivated land.Better crops and better transportation.Better soclal conditions and less 1s0- lation.Better churches and better homes.Better men and a better nation.Improved roads have a money value as well as a soclal value.Looking at an improved road from the standpoint of the almighty dollar, it 1s found to pay a handsome dividend each year.Maintenance of Gravel Roads.On many trunk highways, a gravel surface would be entirely unsatisfactory, but we must not overlook the fact that on roads carrying compara tively light traffic the annual interest cost of a more substantial pavement may exceed the maintenance cost of gravel, Durable Roads.Time-saving, durable roads are now as important as quick-firlng guns, and it is high time

the occasion of much controversy, according to Leo 8.Crandall's book, \u201cPets.\u201d Many naturalists have considered that it is descended from a single ancestor, such as the common wolf of Europe.Darwin, however, leans toward the theory of multiple origin, and advances much convincing proof in support of his bellef, It Is widely known that many savage tribes have dogs, which appear to be simply half-tnmed representatives of the particular wild dogllke animals inhabiting the same regions.The dogs of the American plains Indians closely resemble the small prairie wolf, or coyote; the husky of the north country is plainly not far removed from the gray wolf; the German sheep deg and the Samoyede are strikingly wolfllke in appearance, Whether our present dogs are the result of crossing these many simple derivatives of wolves and Jackals among themselves, or whether there was an original ancestral dog, now extinct, with which the blood of other species has become mingled, we have not yet been able to determine, though so many primordial animal remains have come to light.According to St, George Mivart, the dingo is the only wild dog still existing which meets the requirements of an ancestor of our modern breeds, This species is found throughout Australia and fossil bones which have been found show its presence there from very early times, | MOLLUSKS MAKE GOOD SOUP | | Thrown Up on Florida Beaches by the ! Waves They Are Collected and Sold to Hotels.| Along the Florida beaches a very common and familiar kind of rock is | wholly composed of the shells of a small species of mollusk, oval in shape ! and half an inch long.It ls called | \u201ccoquin,\u201d and is hard on the feet if | one walks over it without shoes, ; In beds below the line of low tide: are mollusks of the same kind, alive, | Their bivalve shells are pink, blue and | of other colors, quite brilliant, so that: in places the beaches are beautiful to | the eye, great numbers of them being thrown up by the waves along the shore.Under such circumstances they soon die, of course, leaving their pretty shells to adorn the strand, But there are always plenty of live ones ut the water's edge, and these are gathered in quantity at some of the winter resorts by boys who collect them with rakes and carry them in baskets to the hotels for sale.They are used for soup, being pressed to a pulp in order to extract their juice, The latter, strained and heated, affords a very delicious table beverage known as *coquina broth.\u201d It is particularly recommended for in-, valids and persons with weak diges- | tion.The Sap of Spring.When the sap of spring Is bursting the fetters of winter the general human heart beats high.A few of us philosophers receive amid the rich but sober tints of autumn a happiness that we would not exchange for any other season, hut we are a minority, and small.The head of one of the most important departments at Washington, who thinks about the processes of mankind, has a theory that makes a regular curve of the relation of the seasons to the appetite for war.As the buds open, every nation thinks it is on the edge of victory.This curve rises for a while, begins to decline in the summer and gets well down in the autumn.The period therefore, when statesmen, if they had decided to make peace, could do it most easily, is from the days of goldenrod and autumn browns to just before the greening of the buds.The story of coal, a tragte story to the poor, helps this curve, but there fs in it much of sheer poetry, independent of more solid things.\u2014Nor- man Hapgood In Leslie's, How Scouts Can Help Nation.Offer your services to some gardener as à patrol.He will be able to pay you for your labor.Make his crop the best in your neighborhood.Show the world that the boy scouts can rise to any emergency.Plant a garden at home.No matter how small the space, Forego the flower garden this season.Plant vegetables.If you have no garden, use a window box.You will be delighted with the results, no matter how small the crop.Do it now.Offer your services to your teacher to help In securing the necessary Information to establish school and home gardens.Don't be_a slacker.Ask your city officials to organize to help conserve the food sepply of our country.Have them offer vacant space for cultivation.Show your patriot- fsm.Arouse thelrs.\u2014Scout News and Bulletin, Ship on Girl's Back Bar to Society.A ship on a girl's back is a bar to her entrance into soclety, according to State Senator Alfred J.Gilchrist, of New York city.The senator declares that a Brooklyn girl 1s barred from 8o- | clety because, when ten years old, a ship was tattooed on the girl's back.She cannot wear a fashionable, low.neck dress because of the spreading sails across the ocean on her back.The senator, therefore, asks for a law imposing a fine of $500 for any one who mars a young woman's beauty.i makers have been salting away dia.ONLY ONE LASTING CONTRACT Nuptial Agreement Must Be Written In Hearts and Temperament of Contracting Couple.\u2014 A Western couple, each of whom had been married twice before and twice divorced, have sought to insure the success of their third venture by a detalled written contract, It is surely one of the most extraordinary prenuptial agreements ever made.Remembering the rocks upon which their various matrimonial ships have been wrecked before, they have carefully charted them and mapped out the course around them.The contract specifically sets forth which one shall build the fires, when the husband may bring guests home to meals, when the relatives of each shall visit them, and how the spending of money is to be divided, how often the wife may attend clubs and social functions.Thus they have arranged, they think, for every possible contingency that may arise in the wedded life of ; two persons, | Maybe they will find it so, Dut it takes no pessimistic spirit to suspect that such a contract contains either too much ar too little.| The possible trouble of a married | couple may be provided against by: contract.But it must be a contract | not of paper and writing, but of the! heart and the temperamen, If the hearts be right, all the possible troubles of the pair may be summed up in a few words, But If] these be not right, no possible combination of all the words in the dictionary can even indicate the possible troubles, The marriage contract that means, the most necd say the least.\u2018Ta love and cherish one another\u201d\u2014hore : is a contract that covers more ground | than can definitely be expressed tn!

Be Mined if Drink is Sold.Washington, D.C\u2014Immediate na- tion-wide brohibition is absolutely necessary if the extra 100,000,000 tons of coal a year needed by the country in its war on Germany is to be mined, Fuel Admistrator Garfleld hus been informed by the National Coal Association, representing bituminous operators producing 400,000,000 tons of coal annually.Dr.Garfield is understood to have laid the Association\u2019s recommendation before President Wilson for his consideration.In a statement tonight, the Association said that in the opinion of a special committee of its members from virtually all coal-producing sections of the country, which has investigated the question, \u2018\u2018the country cannot have both liquor and sufficient coal this winter.\u201d \u201cThe liquor traffic,\u2019 said the statement, \u2018is curtailing coal production, and the time has come to eliminate it if there is to be the substantial increase in coal output the war programme demands.The National Coal Association is informed that the conclusion not only is the judgment of the operators, but is concurred in by Frank Farrington, president of the United Mine Workers of America.Mr.Farrington ie said to have gone on record to this effect be- | fore President Wilson, Fuel Admistra- tor Garfield and senators and representatives of Illinois in Congress.\u201d MAGOON'S

ATTRACTION The Chautauqua is now well under way.The tent in use here came from Northern New York and was delayed in transit by failure of train connec- tiona.It was dus here Tuesday evening, but did not arrive until Wednesday afternoon, therefore was not available for either the afternoon or evening entertainment.The opening day was only unpleasant as to weather conditions.No one minded a tardy tent arrival when, instead, the Haskell Oprea House was made available.The Fisher Shipp Concert Company gave a very popular program in the afternoon and an an entirely new set of attractions in the evening.The compay of four, three ladies and one gentlemen, are each specialists of good ability, bound | to leave a happy impression where- ever they appear.The songs, monologues and instrumental numbers were given with vivacity, and when humerous in selection, were really mirth-provoking.Even the viola, when speaking for \u201cJohn Henry\u201d became hilarious and the most careful, thinking people, as they listened, were shocked into laughter by \u201cJohn Henry's\" remarks.In the evening, following the concert, Dr.Joseph Clare gave a perfectly wonderful narrative of the Russian revolution.It was the greatest war message which has been brought to this place since the beginning of the world-conilict.For five years Dr.Clare was pastor of the British- American Congregational Charch in Petro- grad.He was perfectly familiar with the conditions leading up to the revolution and an eye-witness o! several clashes in Petrograd.The Russian people, Dr.Clare said, did not measure up to our standards of judgment.\u2018\u2018As to morals, they \u2018aint got nowe,\u2019\u201d was his picturesque way of putting it.They had not yet reached that stage of advancement; they were simply undeveloped.And yet Dr.Clare confessed great love for them.They were crurteous and kindly, open hearted and generous, and learning to forgive them was an easy matter, The speaker made some contrasts between the French and Russian revolutions, which showed the uareas- onableness of those who thought the latter ought to run as smooth as a top.Russia had 180 millions, and the revolution was simply bound to haveits bad phases.Asto the cause.Truethere was conspiracy, schemes,and plotting\u2018\u2018agin the government,\u201d but the revolution did notcome as expected.It came spontaneously from the people through the will of God.The old order would never again be tolerated.The ex-Emperor was a man of weak character, who promised everytbing and never did it.He never had a mind of his own, but usually took the opinion of the last one who spoke to him.But if he was unpopular, the Empress, a German princess, was much more so.She offended the Russian people, whose language she could not speak, and was herself driven to association with German people around the Court.Things did not run smoothly between the Empress and her mother-in-law, the former became an expert at henpeckery, finally developed hysterics and usually got her way.Then the scoundrel Rasputin got in with the Empress and what he did was too vile to be told.As matters progressed Rasputiu did the bidding of German agents and the Emperor was doing precisely what Berlin wanted him to do.Yet when the war came the Emperor was wherever he went.His popularity was short, however, for he was too weak to sustain it.At the beginning Russia bad entered the war through a noble instinct-that ot protecting Serbia, but, the speaker said \u2018\u2018it is impossible to remain on the ideal plane unless you have lived the ideal life.\u201d Russia's part in the war became one long story of betrayal.Russian manufacturers produced shells which could not be used in Russian guns but would fit the German guns to a T, and as the Russian soldiers were forced back they were fired upon with their own shells.While the Ruesiau minister of war had made a shipment of rifles to France as proof that the liome army was well supplied as a matter of fact there were twelve men Lo one ritle.Dr.Clare made the bold statement that the Germans had not won a single military victory over the Russians.Success when the people on the opposite side were fighting without arms and when the officers arranged defeat could not be considered military victory.German money on one side and greed for personal gain on the part of those in a position to do most harm on the other had more than all else d ' contributed to the Russian failure.The Russian roldiers were not cowards.Even under such conditions as existed they did not relinquish their effort until they had lost three to three and a haif millions, Killed in Action, and two and & half million prisoners in enemy hands.Their losses were greater than all other allies combined.At the crucial period of the war, with improper equipment the Russian soldiers poured into East Prussia, there holding large German forces which would otherwige have been used on the Western front.They had thus saved Paris and in saving Parie had saved a good share of the world.In the earlier stages of the war there were immense reserves of food in Russia, but through intrigue and corruption much of this reserve found its COL.F.D.BUTTERFIELD DEAD Fouuder of Greatest Industry Boundary District.of WON HIGH HONORS IN ARMY The death of Col.F.D.Butterfield, which occurred at bis home in South Pasadena, California, Friday, July 12th, removes a man inseparably associated way to Germany.Prices went souring in Petrograd; then it became not a question of price but of being unable to obtain even the necessities of life at any price.Workingmen could not wait in the bread-line twelve hours in order to obtain a meagre supply and so went back to their work unfed.This condition could pot last and the workers struck; then they became obstrepulous.The soldiery sympathized with them; they were only asking for bread, which they had a right to expect.The authorities realized this.The police system was notoriously corrupt; and between the police and people there was no sympathy.Police were put in military uniforms, machine guns were placed on house tops and at other advantageous places.These were used later when the conflict began, but the revolt of sympathizing soldiers quickly turned the tide in favor of the people and the police were wiped out of existence.Prisoners were released and state buildings pf various kinds were burned.The crowds took possession of street cars, automobiles, etc., and there were drivers who had never before had their hands on a steering- wheel.For a time there was no authority, then came the ill-fated Kerensky government and subsequently the Bolsheviki which represented the low- ent class.At every street corner there was an orator.Some counseled reason and moderation.The great mass of the population, however, was illiterate and to them the Bolsheviki doctrine of conflscation of estates and an equal division of all property naturally had the stronger appeal.One interesting incident told by Dr.Clare was that concerning the finding of a large quantity of liquors in a big hotel in Petrograd.For two and a half years Russia had been under prohibition, which was effective so far as the common people were concerned and an untold blessing to the country, but the rich could get liquor.A machine gun on top of this big English hotel had been used against the revolutionists.The building was broken into and ransacked, but these common people seerñed to realize that the huge stores of liquor they had secured would be an enemy to their cause.Accordingly they smashed the bottles on the pavement allowing the contents to run away in the gutters.Dr.Clare expressed the conviction that the revolution would ultimately be a great blessing.True there were ignorance and disorder, but there was no Inoger treachery.The peace terms with Germany, such as they were, had been assented to owing to the absolute demoralization of the country.The Russian people had been so outraged that they were now disposed to trust no one.But some day, perhaps with the industrial development of Rock Island and Derby Line.Without him the big Butterfleld works, which have achieved an enviable position in two countries, and wbich are the life of this community, would have vever been.Col.Butterfleld possessed all the characteristics necessary for success in large undertakings.He was a man of unlimited energy, dogged determination and far sightedness.Adventuresome enough to risk big stakes when he saw ahead a chance for commercial success, he was never prevented through timidity from accomplishing his purpose.In commercial life he was one of Vermont\u2019s most illustrious sons.Frederick David Butterfield was born in Rockingham, Vt., May 14, 1838, and was therefore in his eighty-first year.He was educated in the common schools and at the Saxton\u2019s River Academy, choosing a practical business education rather than a college course.Col.Butterfleld began his business career in the hardware house of A.and J.H.Wentworth, of Bellows Falls.In 1859 he came to Derby Line and entered the employ of Foster and Cobb.When the Civil war broke out he gave up his business prospects and entered the Union army, enlisting as a private in Co.B, 8th Vermont Volunteers, being successively prbmoted to the rank of second lieutenant, first lieutenant and captain.Early in 1862 he was detached from his regiment and appointed to a position in the signal corps where he remained during the balance of his military service.In the capacity of a signal officer he was attached to the personal staff of General Godfrey Weitzel, General Butler, General Franklin and General Dana.At the battle of Labadieville, La., while carrying an order under terrific fire, his horse was shot from beneath bim by an enemy shell, and he narrowly escaped death.For gallantry on this occasion he was complimented in general orders.In 1888 he was appointed an aid-de-camp, with rank of colonel on the staff of Gov.William P.Dillingham.Upon his return from the army he was engaged in business at Derby Line for a time, then appointed deputy collector of customs.In 1872 he resigned to engage in the manufacture of the Reece sewing machine at Rock Ieland.This business having failed to weather the panic of 1873-75, Col.Butterfield in 1879 began the manufacture of taps and dies in the old wooden building on Foundry Hill, the windows of which are now boarded up.At first only a few men were employed but the steady growth of this business to its present prominence, occupying several large buildings and giving employment to hun- cheered | through their weakness, they would find their source of strength, then would come order, obedience, and lasting peace.dreds of hands, is a matter of common knowledge.At one time in the early history of the industry on Foundry Hill, Col.Butterfield had associated with him Col.H.8.Haskell of Derby Line, and later on a younger brother of the former, Gen.F.G.Butterfield, became a partner.Subsequently the business was turned into a joint-stock company, the ownership and control remaining in the \u2018hands of the two Butterfield families, until sold to the Union Twist Drill interests a few years ago.Something like a quarter of a century ago, Col.Butterfield went to California and became interested in the cultivation of olives.He organized the Los Angeles Olive Growers Association, of which he was the BEEBE Mr.and Mrs.Anson Stratton,

world.Its plants for handling, pressing, preserving and packing the products of ite ranches were also on a scale seldom approached in this or any other country.Col.Butterfield was a member of Golden Rule Lodge No.5, À.F.& AM., stanetead, a Royal Arch Mason and a Knights Templar.He was a member of Baxter Post, G.A.R., a charter member of the Vermont Com- mandery of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, U.8 ; a member of the Vermont Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, and numerous other military and social organizations.Col.Butterfield was twice married, first on October 8th, 1868, to Ellen Jeannette Morrill, daughter of the late Ozro Morrill of this place.She died July 5, 1874, leaving two daughters, Charlotte and Elien.His second marriage was to Miss Ellen G.Cutter of Bellows Falls, February 6th, 1895.Col.Butterfield remained in the commercial harness practically until the end of his long and useful career.He was ill only a short time before the final summons came.He is survived by one daughter, Charlotte M., of South Pasadena, Cal, one brother, Charles W., of Bellows Falls, Vt., and few weeks stay at his home.other relatives.Almost Forgotten Boy Prodigy.William Henry West Betty, perhaps the greatest of all boy actors, made his first appearance on the London stage at the Drury Lane theater, December 1, 1804.Betty, who was universally known as \u201cthe Young Rosclus,\u201d was then thirteen years old.He began his stage career at the age of eleven, ln Belfast, playing the roles of Osman, Young Norval and Romeo, and soon all Ireland was wild over him.His stay in Dublin ended a triumphal tour.During his eugagements In Drury Lane and Covent Garden theaters the Loy received $3,000 weekly.Teach Children Thrift.Thrift is a very hmportant element in character.Those who learn to be economical in youth have no difficulties when they are responsible for the income necessary to maintain a home, It is the man or woman that allows want to dominate and lives beyond the income that has difficulties when the income is small, Children should be taught economy and thrift early in life.They should be given a chance to earn and a chance to use thelr earnings, This will give them responsibility and teach them the worth of money.Picking Pins From Throat.The swiftness and ease with which a doctor can remove a bone, a pin or other object from the windpipe, esophagus or even lung is often astonishing, This is when he uses one of the tubes that enable him to look right down into the organ, see the foreign object illuminated by an electric lamp and insert a delicate forceps with which to seize it and draw it out.Without the use of an endoscope there is much danger of injuring the tissues by blind feeling for the offending object.CARD OF THANKS We wish to offer our sincere thanks to the singers, those who gave flowers, and all who endeavored to lighten our gorrow in the loss of our dear one gone before.Arthur D.Tryon

heat, danger of fire, lost time, and waste, in her kitchen.She has only tolerated them because she did not know how to get rid of them.The Electric Range has shown her the way.The minute it is installed in her kitchen, dirt gives way to cleanliness, bad sir to pure air, The food becomes better fluvored, all the cooking more uniformly successful.The kitchen is a cooler place in which to work, the housewife finds her leisure hours increased, and the bills grow less.The transformation is really wonderful; no one who has ever known the convenience and comfort of Electric Cooking would ever willingly go back to other methods.\u2019 You can have a range in your kitchen, The coat is very moderate in proportion to the service it renders.Once installed, you will value it more highly than apy houseold convenience you possess.There is a range to fit any requirement of large or emall families, biz or little kitchens.We will install a range in vour kitchen on trial for a month, and if it does not meet your requirements we will remove it free of cost.For further information apply to the following offices: SOUTHERN CANADA POWER CO., LIMITED Operating Sherbrooke Railway & Power Co,

pretty well acquainted in this country with the part Canada is taking in the war.We have been advised from time to time of the individual sacrifices being made by the people k Amiens and Its Cathedral.HI battle in which the allies and the central powers have been engiged in northeastern France often is referred to In the dispatches as the \u201cBatle of Pie- ardy,\u201d although as a political subdivision the province of Picardy no longer exists, Since the division into de- partmuents was nude, Pieardy was cut up into the departinents of the Somme, Pus-de-Culnis, Aisne and Oise.In the ancleut days when Ît existed as one of the great historie provinces of France, its houudaries extended from Iaiîneut and Artois on the north and from Champagne onthe vast to the province of Normandy and the English channel on the west, With à maritiine frontier running from the mouth of the An to the cliffs of Caux, und it included within its boundaries the whole of the bastn of the Somme river and a great part of that of the Oise.Under the Romans It was Inhabited by the Morini, the Ambiuni, the Vero- mandui, the Bellovact and the Sues- stones, whose numes are still preserved in the modern cities of Amiens, Ver- mundois, Beauvais and Soissons, It was a battleground in Caesar's day und the Romans bullt military roads through the province and erected defensive eltudels along the banks of the Somme.It wns in Picardy, too, that the first nucleation of France as a nation took place, under the Merovingian kings In the fifth century.\u201cThe history of un- clent France,\u201d says Michelet, \u201chad its sources in Pleardy.\u201d Here Clovis made his first capital at Soissons and Charlemagne founded his at Noyon.Famous battles were fought within its borders long before the first Prussian set foot upon its soll.Crecy, where Bdward the Black Prince won his spurs, and Agincourt, where Henry V of England with his bowen, wrought such havo with the French army\u2014the bowmen Whose spirits were sæld to have rendered miraculous assistance to the ab lies at the Battle of the Marne, Land of Beautiful Landscapes.A lund of beautiful landscapes is the lund of Pleardy\u2014or was before the de- vasting Hun plowed up its falr fields, tore up Its roads and laid low its forests and its famous avenues of aspens and poplars\u2014us \u201cPleturesque Pleardy\u201d it was known to poets and artists and writers and travelers.David Murray, the famous Scottish landscape painter, gave its pastoral beauties to the world in almost three score of hls canvases, Many of Corot's finest Inndscapes are laid fn the valley of the Otse or Some, Ruskin and Robert Louis Stevensou have glorified 1t in art and literature, But today it is a scene of ruin, ravage and desolation.Many of its age-old mwwns have been made level with the plain, some of tts historic cathedrals and chateaux are heaps of ruins and great craters of shell holes mark the face of the lund.As Lord Byron ald of Greece, *'Tia Pleardy, but living Picardy no more.\u201d And now again the guns of the Huns have been thundering in the heart of Pleardy and nt the gates of its ancient capital, Amiens, the benutiful, the \u201cVenice of Pleardy,\u201d home of rare art treasures and elty of the cathedral which hits been named by the Pleards themselves the \u201cCathedral of the Beautiful God,\u201d und by art lovers the \u201cPar thenon of Gothle architecture.The enthedral of Amteus 15 one of the largest churches In the world, be- Ing surpassed In the magnitude of its construction only by St, Peters at Rome, St.Sophia's at Constantinople nud the cathedral of Cologne.Into its seutptured stones and statues have heen wrought by its bullders almost a complete biblleal history, both of the Od and New Testaments, Ruskin calls the cathedral \u201cthe Bible of Amiens.\u201d and in his lecture under that title he has given an interpretation of its thou- gands of sculptured figures and of its \u201csermons In stones.\u201d The cathedral was built chiefly be- to the north of us.We know only in a general way what other people are doing.So it comes as refreshing news to hear from the lips of such a man as Harry Lauder the heroic work and sacrifices of the Scots.More than 300,000 Scotchmen are under arms, or have given up thelr lives in the struggle.And Scotland is n small country.In the cities and towns there are no more eligible men \u2014no more men fit to bear arms.They have all departed.Scotland is a land of old men and women and little chil- dren\u2014and crippled soldiers.It is

British regiments the \u201cBluck Watch,\u201d \u201cSeuforth Highlanders,\u201d \u201cInniskillen Fusileers,\u201d \u201cSherwood Foresters,\u201d and some others, famous for the long years they have been in existence, for their herolc deeds in past wars, for the traditions that have come down through generations of soldiers, of what they did at Waterloo, or Inkermann, or at the slege of Lucknow.Who, outside the army Itself, knows that we In America have regiments more than a century old, with herote traditions, too?That fact was brought to mind the other day by a little news item recording the annual dinner in Camp Eagle Pass, Texas, of the officers\u2019 mess of the Third United States Infantry regiment, and sald the item: \u201cEver since the battle of Monterey, in the Mexican war, when for three days the Third bore the brunt of a great battle, it has been the custom for the officers to assemble annually for a regimental dinner.\u201d But the history of that regiment goes away buck of that battle in Mexico in September, 1847.Tt goes back over 125 years of active service, since its organization in 1792 as the \u201cInfantry of the Third Sublegion.\u201d Four years later it became the Third Infantry, and so it has remained ever since, This famous regiment was not in the Revolutionary war, but many veterans of that war were in its first organization.It was part of the first regular army of the United States, and fought in the Wur of 1812 and in the campaigns agalnst warring Creek, Chippewa, Sloux and Blackfeet Indians.In the days before there was a house or a road in Kansas territory it did duty there.It went through the Mexican war, the Civil war and the Spanlsh- American war.But there is an older regiment than the Third.The First regiment of infantry was organized in 1789, from al regiment of state troops which fought under Washington in the Revolutionary war, and it is yet in existence, its colonel being Dantel L.Howel of Iowa.This regiment has a history of glorious deeds, too; and both these old regiments will have those traditions of the past to spur them on to greater deeds in this war.Indlans Making Good Soldiers.At a

using an interpreter and sign language, he declared he wanted to go to France right away and bayonet the kalser all by himself.There are some noted members of the variouse tribes In service.George Baconrind, son of Chief Baconrind, of the Osage nation, is a good soldier and patriotic.His father, back in the Osage country, still wears a Iianket, Herbert Whiteshield, a noted base ball player, sought by several major league clubs, is in the army.At one of the cantonments Major Koehler, long West Point swordmaster, put the men through strenuous exervise.It was play for Indians.Some men were overcome and had to drop out, but not one of the Indians did.The Indians, too, are not only heulthy and strong as a race, but they follow all the sanitary regulations in camp.Several Indians have reached the grade of captain, Military Decorations.They are as follows: Great Brit.aln, Victoria Cross of bronze, with red ribbon for the army and blue ribbon for the navy; Great Britain, Distin-
