A Twentieth Century Movement.

The Reformed church in America
has inaugurated Twentieth Century
Missionary Forward Movement. 1t
has to do with children in the Sunday
schools only. There are 10000
children in these schools. The claim
is made that not enough attention is
given in these schools to the outside
news of want and ignorance. The
new movement is intended to arouse
interest IN these things and if possible
to secure from each scholar one cent
and each teacher two cents a week
during the year beginning with Janu-
airy next. Heretofore all of the mis-
sionary organizations of the Reformed
church have appealed in turn to the
schools. Now it is planned to put
system into these appeals and divide
the offerings equitably among the diff
erent societies having missionary work
in charge. This week information of
the movement has been forwarded 10
all pastors and superintendents in the
Reformed church in America.

When an engineer starts out with a
fast express train he must settle right
down to work with his head and
hands, and his mind is in a constant
strain until he alights from the engine
at the end of the long run. He has
dozen or more slow orders, special
orders, orders to make extra stops,
orders to meet east-bound trains or
pass west-bound trains, orders to take
water at X instead Of o, to stop and
pick up an official at Y and let off
another at G. He must sound the
whistle for all crossings and stations,
for all east bound trains, if he is on
the first section, must run carefully
over certain bridge, or over a part
OF the track where repairs are being
made, and is expected to make the
time under any and all circumstances.
He may start out well, keep up to
schedule requirements for 10 miles,
and is then stopped 10 minutes while
theatrical scenery is being loaded or
unloaded, and this is kept up so that
five stops of 10 minutes each are not
unusual, and that means 50 minutes
lost. During all this time the engi-
neer is getting worried and has to run
recklessly on curves. He covers mile
after mile in 50 seconds, and knows
while he is doing this and shooting
around curves that there is sharp
fiange on the front driving wheel, but
that makes no difference, as he must
make up the time or be called down.
Recently, to make matters worse,
they have enforced the rule that the
whistle must be blown to warn the
postal clerks that mail sack is to be
taken on or thrown off, and failure to
do this means censure. 1t seems that
1t is official negligence and lack of
perception that allows all these wor-
rles to be heaped upon the engineer.

effect of this, showing nearly 200
lights Illuminating flags below, is very
striking. About the cornices of the
buildings below the flag staffs are hun
dreds of incandescent lamps, making
a line of fire entirely around the struc-
lures, and marking their outlines from
great distance. These electrical eff
fects from above form fine fringe for
the broader illumination below. The
outlines Of the windows, extending
from below the cornices almost to the
ground, are indicated by lines of in
candescent lamps, which, aided by
the bright light from within, gives to
the group OF exhibition buildings the
appearance of palaces OF fire.

on the war tax on legacies, and which
will effect every estate distributed
since the act went into effect June I3
OF last year. Basing their action on
several decisions made from time to
time, collectors of revenue all over the
country have uniformly held that an
estate passes over to the bene6ciaries
on the death of the testator but the
new ruling holds that this takes place
only when the actual transfer of prop
erty is made by the executors, notwith-
standing the date of death.

suffer so much less than men from
this dlsease-a long vexed point in
the study-because the habit OF cross
ing the legs is so much less common

the leg-crosslng habit restricts the di-

likely. Moral: Don't cross your legs.
