UNIFORMS OF ALL TINES

valsrius Maximus, the Roman EN-
peror. ordered the Roman soldiers to
wear red so they would not be fright
enpd at the sight OF their own blood.
and even now red forms a conspicuous
part of French and English uniforms.
In our own army red is not used ex-
cept for facings, on the ground that
il attracts attention In the field.
though experiments in Germany prove
that a blue target is hit three times
where a red one is hit once.
During the revolutionary war each
colony had its militia, and the uniforms
Of each body were different. Later
the higher officers came TO be known
by the colored ribbons worn across
their breasts, and the lower officers
by the cockade worn in their hats.
In 1921 dark blue was declared to be
the national uniform color for both
officers and enlisted men. the only ex-
ception being scarlet coats for mu-
sicians and gray coats for cadets.
Various changes took place in the
shape Of the clothing of the soldiers
until 1868, when our uniforms became
practically fixed, the cloth for the
trousers being light blue and the fac
ings being light blue for infantry, yell
low for cavalry and red for artillery.

Therefore, when she announced that
her sister from Lansing was visiting

burnt toast, we were rewarded by an
introduction to the sister"

Mrs. Smith smiled in pale way, nod
ding us an excuse to hurry from the
table, duly thankful that we were not
guilty of Lineage or relations.
But as we really liked Mrs. Smith
who is a kindly woman, my room

WRECKS AND DERELICTS.

Menaces to Navigation.

A stranded vessel is not menace TO

few fathoms Of water, in the track of
coastwise shipping, is a dangerous OBJ
stluction. The large, heavy masts
of surken coaster might rip up the

ledge of rock would not be more fatal

has rect ived nearly 1000 reports of
wrecks and dangerous distractions,
and ordered me destruction of as
many OF these as was practicable. The
work is dome with torpedoes. After he
explosion there is no torpedo left, but
there is also no wreck.
Ii is impossible to say how much
damage has been done by collision
with wrecks and derelicts, as ships
abandoned at sea are called. Sunken
wrecks are hidden dangers. The sky
may be clear and the sea-way light;
they smi'e the unsuspectirg victim
from the depths, and add one more
to those disasters which are the more
tragic for the awful mystery that sur
rounds them. During the seven years,
from 1857 to 1894, As such collisions

age-wrre reported to the United
Statos photographer. OF the fatal col
lisions, five were with wrecks, and four
with derelIcts.
The Iantic. The Despatch and The
dynamite cruiser Nesuvius are among
the yes sells of the United States navy
which have most actively waged war
upon sdEken wrecks. The United
States steamer San Francisco also has
tine homer of having destroyed dere-

ever, obliged to resort to all usual
methods of naval attack except board

ner, these masts must have become
unstepped from sunken vessel, and
the heels had swung up, the ends of

, here, his instrument and MS playing

dreds of music-loving GentiIes.
Rabbi Stern, whose life work with
this congregation has been eminently
satisfactory to his people, delivered
very eloquent address. After en-
pressing his own qualification at this
elimination of united effort, he con-
cluded by saying:
And you, friends. who through Gods
mercy have been preserved to witness this
glorious day. may indeed joyfully exclai i'm:
Il was glad when they said unto me let us
go into the house OF the Lord
AS Jewish citizens of our nations capital
you have long felt the need of such a
sanctuary. And 1t is doubly to your credit
that what perhaps ought to have been at
tanned through the combined efforts of cur
coreligionists of the United States you have
accomplished single-handed, despite SEEM
ingly insurmountable obstacles confront
ing YOU so that this beautiful temple
stands to-day monument to your liber-
atty sef-sacrifice and harmonious cooper
ation and by its erection you have en-
riched the architectural beauty of your
lovely capital city. a monument TO your
public spiritedness and patriotism.
Again, we are glad to-day TO go into our
new place of worship, as close neighbors to
our friends of Calvary church, to continue
the pleasant relations that have existed
between us for Sc years. We recall with
pleasure that their worthy pastor at the
corner stone laying of this temple invoked
Gods blessing upon us and our undertake
ing, and that our congregation, while tenn
porarily without place OF worship, dur
ing our great holidays year ago enjoyed
the hospitality OF the Congregational
church, whose spiritual representative we
are glad to have with us to participate IN
the exercises of this day.
May then, the tall graceful spires OF the
Church of Calvary and the great white
towers of this temple dedicated to the re-
ngion OF Sinai. piercing side by side the
sun-kissed skies, proclaim 10 coming gem
erations the great truth of the fatherhood
Of the God we all adore and the glorious
message of human brotherhood ana love.

Of a Hebrew rabbi; man of the same
race and the same religion as was
Saul of Tarsus, who went about killing
Christians until he saw that great
light at Damascus.

erently arose and listened to the In

dismissed them with the words: MAY
the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be

studies each case as i: comes 10 her as
a physician studies eases of disease,
and instead of an unvarying regime n
and Identical doses adopts such treat
ment as seems required by individual
conditions. Flowers, music and ami
mails are made instrumtntalities of re
finement, and instruction in sewing
and all forms of household work is sys-
tematieaily given.
Although the inmates of this reform

dungeon, which is almost never used

pied. Outdoor work is provided in the
fields and in the gardens, and the cu!-
ture of silk worms proves an absorbing
occupation, the women often begging
to be allowed TO work at it till ten

warded By promotion in the socia!

secured for these discharged women
