TERRITORY BELONGS TO NOBODY.

Frontier Town That Neither Prussia
Nor Belgium Can Call Its Own.
When a person speaks about the
smallest states in the world he men,
lions the Republic of San Marine in
the Apennines, the Republic of An
DORA in the Pyrenees or the princi-
pality of Monaco. There is little
district smaller than any of these
which is still more curious in its po-
litical relations. 1t cannot be called
Independent, for two countries have a
hand in it's affairs, and yet it belongs
alous position, says the New York
Sun.
This little area, containing only
about two square miles, is the ground
on which the Town of Moresnet
stands, little to the southwest of the
important German city of Aix-la-Cha-
pelle.
The Vienna congress in 1915 estab-
lished a new boundary between the
low countries and Prussia. The con-
gress was unable to agree as to how
a very short part Of the boundary
should be drawn. A temporary ar
rangement was finally made by which
Moresnet should be called neutral ter
ritory. Subsequent events played
ducks and brakes with the frontiers
established by the congress of Vienna.
But Moresnet has never been dis
turbed 1t is still neutral territory
and is so marked to-day on every good
map of Europe.
The town is mentioned in very few
school or other biographies. Writers
would not know where to class Mores-
net If they did not mention it,

Fewer Convicts In Kansas.

The warden of the Kansas City
penitentiary casts doubt on the suppo-
sition that a convict does not have the
opportunity to go much in society and
form a large acquaintance.
He says that two of the convicts
now in his charge have seen 5000
prisoners come and go during the
twenty-five years since their arrival
at the institution.
BY the way, there are fifty fewer
convicts in the penitentiary at this
time than there were year ago, and
the warden wonders IL Kansas is be-
coming more neutrality-suspicious.

DECORATION DAY EPISODE.
Simple but Patriotic Exercises IN
Western Frontier Town.

Western Frontier Town.
"For genuine patriotism one must
60 to the country, or, better still, to
the frontier or mountain towns. Ava.
from the maddening rush for wealth
the people live closer to nature and
also get opportunities to form social
acquaintances which develop into the
closest friendships. Holidays to this
class are something out of the ordi-
nary" Having thus delivered himself
the old-time newspaper man pondered
while and then resumed somewhat
as follows: Away back in 1888 | was
stranded in little mountain hamlet
in Colorado called Georgetown. IT
was Decoration day. My cash had
run out, the two weelilies had a full
complement of help and was up
against it.
Going along the main street, | ran
across local correspondent for one
of the weeklies, whom | had met in
Denver. He gave me the glad hand
and asked if | had struck any aurifer-
GUS ore. Having told him of the de-
pleted condition of the treasury, he
stated that a committee appointed by
the G. A. r. post had met with hard
luck in lassooing a speaker for the
program at the cemetery. Then an
idea struck him.
Say, pard, why can't you give us
lift? There's five dollar gold
piece in it,
Did | take it? Well. | delivered
the best speech ever made in the
Rockies. But you should nave seen
that procession. Miners wearing their
red or blue shirts, with great leather
belts to hold their trousers in place.
sans coat and vest, but shod in high
top boots and on their heads were
SLOUGH hats or sombreros adorned
with rattlers. Here and there was a
real veteran, whose empty sleeve {.
limp demonstrated that he had helped
defend the stars and stripes. Alto
gether there were fewer than 800 men
in line But patriotism, pure and II
adulterated, beat in every breast
was accorded position of honor at
the head of the line alongside my
friend, who was past commander OF
the post and measured about feet
A. The commander was cot 2, anu
we made up great bunch. The line
of march took in the main street OF
the town and then over two miles OF
rocky road to the cemetery. Once
there | delivered my little talk and
then the veterans tenderly placed
flags and flowers on the graves OF
their beloved dead Many a teardror
fell upon the blossoms as the old boys
passed them around and recalled theil
gallant comrades of years agose
There was no work in Georgetown
that day, for it was holiday devoted
to the memory of the brave men who
fought to preserve the nations honor
Give me the frontier for the real ar
ticle in patriotism"

Let No Soldier Be Forgotten.

The significance of the day should
inspire every veteran soldier and sail
or to pay homage to the valorous
deeds of their comrades of $685. The
annals of our country have been made
glorious by the noble and heroic sac
rifices of her sons.
1t is our duty to keep ever present
in our memories the historic deeds of

Oral instruction in the leading facts
of primary geography and elementary
physiology is given about twice a
week to the pupils in the lower grades
of the Mahanoy City public schools.
During visit of the superintendent,
one afternoon recently, the teacher,
desiring to show the proficiency of
her little charges in the latter branch,
asked several questions which were
answered promptly and correctly.
Then she asked: What is the COM
position of the human body?" After
a breathless wait Of several seconds,
a little girl, six years old, blurted out:
"The composition of the human body
is ninety per cent water and the rest
dry land"

TWO NEW VEGETABLES.

Among the newer salad plants. said a dealer in green vegetables. "is one called oriental romaine. which has been introduced here about four years. Il came originally from China. This is a winter salad, and is grown in the south. being raised as far north as North Carolina.
 "A head of oriental romaine is aboIt es long as an ear of corn. and, in its middle part, of about the same diam eter; but, instead of tapering down at its lower end it is there somewhat bulb ous: so that the whole head is some what vase-like in shape.
