work today to finish the mighty dam at Aswan. The resurrection of Egypt s past has come and almost departed. With the lifting of the 1S0 water gates in that frowning portal the river will commence to destroy the priceless treasures that the desert spared.
 Would that every tourist up the Nile and everyone interested in those fa- nous monuments might do the society the honor to become patron and by sending $25 support a spade year.
 There are three departments of our work. The Egypt Exploration fund excavates. The Archaeological Survey fund copies inscriptions and wall drawings. The Archaeological Institute vote. The Graeco-Roman branch res cues papyri. So many fragments have been found of the New Sayings of Jesus' that it is now determined there must have been such gospel, un- edited by any apostle. Upon theAchance of that alone, what effort can be too great to save every scrap of papyrus at Oxyrhynchus
 Annual membership to either branch of our work is $5. Life membership is $125. Patrons subscribe $25. Each of these subscriptions carries with it the right to one copy of the annual memoir of the department concerned. Checks should be made payable to the Egypt Exploration fund and sent for the Egypt Exploration fund for the United States. APT Fremont Temple, Boston, Mass.

ExpIorations in Eaypt.

MT. Editor:-Since 1883 annual ex- plorations in Egypt have absorbed a large part of the time, thought and l capital of American people. That in vestment has yielded the richest re- suits.
 Archaeology. almost an unknown science in our schools and colleges g years ago, is now a necessary branch of education. Ancient history has been rewritten and revised as year after year fresh light has come from the monuments. The leading public libra ries of the United States, as well as those of our universities, have the 56 volumes of the Egypt Exploration fund and it's two departments upon their shelves in answer to the demand of the public.
 Our museums contain historical treasures incomparabIe in variety and extent, all acquired by the generous returns of the explorers in the field to the generous helping hands of those ar home. Biblical sites like Pithom, Zoan where Moses wroght his wonders
 Hanes. Tahpanhes, Goshen; classical
 where the Ionic column first stood in
 lines of classic beauty, Dendereh with
 the oldest arch known, Deir el Bahari
 where Queen Hatshepsu perfected the
 Doric coIonnade 1000 years before the
 Greeks thought of it: all are the gifts
 of the Egypt Exploration fund, re-
 claimed from solitude silence and for get1uIneSS to instruct and delight the
 world of today.
 Year after year these excavations
 were conducted in the leisure of the
 past. Now we have far greater under
 takings on hand and the time is short We appeal frankly and earnestly to every reader Of this notice to set spade at work this winter and next al Abydos, or send another basket to the papyri field at Oxyrhynchus. or take pen in hand and write a check that shall start another pencil to copying the inscriptions from the monuments in the Sudan, soon to be far below the waters of the storage basin of the Nile.

Robert B. Knight 84 Carbohydrates Trolley Pas sengers Penalized-Sunday Services-Deacon Robert Palmer Elected Superintendent of Noank Baptist Sun day School for 65th Time-City Pharmacy Liquor Case Continued

Robert B. Knight of the B. B. & R. B. Knight concern, resident of PrOvi- dence, and the largest individual cot ton mill owner in the world, reached his eighty Sourth birthday Saturday, Mr- Knight controls twenty distinct establishments, and as one of the smallest is the White Rock mills in Westerly, the extent of his holdings can be appreciated, as the local mill is not one of small proportions.
 Mr. Knight was born in Old War wick. January s, 1926. and in early childhood the family removed to Cranston. At eight years of age he commenced work in the Cranston print works, where he remained two years and was then employed in the cotton mill in Coventry until his seventeenth year, part of the time working four teen hours a day, for $1.25 a week. Early in 1S43 he went to Providence and for two years was clerk in his brother Benjamin's store.
 Subsequently,, through the aid of a friend, he spent eighteen months at the Pawcatuck academy in Westerly, which was located on -"Cookey hill,'' Union street on the site of the pres ent central fire house. After leaving the academy in Westerly he taught a district school in Exeter, R. l., four months. In 1S46 he secured work as a clerk in the factory of John H. Clark at Arnold's Bridge, now Pontiac, in the town of Warwick Upon the cleo tion of Mir. Clark to the United States senate, the cotton mill and bleachery were leased to Zachariah Parker and MT. Knight for S5,000 a year, and in 1850 Parker and Knight purchased the property for $40. 1000. The next year NIT. Knight bought his partners interest and then gave to the village it's present name of Pontiac
 In 1852 he sold One-half of his prop erty and business to his brother, Ben jamin B., at the same time purchas- ing one-half of the flour ynd grain business of his brother in Providence. This was the beginning of the exten- sive business of E. B. & R B.

WOMEN ARE THE
DRINKERS NOW
NEW YORK PREACHER SAYS
MEN ARE NOT THE WORST
OFFENDERS.

New York, Nov. 16.-The Rev.
Frederick Lynch of the Pilgrim
church, Madison Avenue and One
Hundred and Twenty-first street, de-
scribed last night the alarming
growth of the drink habit among
women in this city" He limited even
at orgies in which women take
part. He referred to women in So
ciety without mentioning names and
told OF the undignified things they
did when intoxicated. Such things
as climbing a pillar, smoking cigars,
hurting plates at the buffers head
and falling insensible under the ta-
BILE were incidents, he said, of high
life in certain sets.
The preacher took as his subject
THE Growth OF the Drink Habit in
New York" He pointed out, how
ever, that men do not drink so
much as formerly but that the real
danger is among women.
"Once it was rare thing" he said
'to see women drinking at dinner,
One rarely ever saw one drinking
in hotels and a woman would not
think of entering a saloon. All this
has changed to an alarming extent.
'At dinner given not far from
here, the company being made Of
persons whose names you would
recognize who attend church one
woman drank SO much that she tried
to climb a pillar in the room while
the drunken guests cheered.
"a woman member of one of our
most prominent families gave a din
ner for her women friends In this
city. While half intoxicated and
smoking a big cigar she hurled a
plate at the buffers head"

FEWER DESERT|ONS
IN REGULAR ARMY
ONLY 1864 SOLDIERS TOOK
FRENCH LEAVE DURING LAST
FISCAL YEAR.

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE num-
Der of the desertions of the enlisted
strength of the army of the United
States during the last fiscal year was
materially less than the record or any
year since 1899, according to the re-
port of Adjutant General Ainsworth,
which was presented to the secretary
of war today. The official returns to
the adjutant generals office showed
3,464 desertions last year, or 3.66 per
cent of the total number of enlisted
men in the service or of enlistment
contracts in force during the year.
This was a decrease as compared
with the preceding fiscal year, when
desertions constituted 497 per cent
of the total enlisted force.
Last years record eclipses the
showing of every year since 1899, for
which the percentage of desertions
was only 1922, while in 1898 there
were 1.57.
The gratifying reduction in the de-
sertion ratio is ascribed by General
Ainsworth to the continuance of sys-
tematic and vigorous efforts to pun
ish deserters. OF the white troops
3.77 per cent and of the negro sol
diers only 1.35 per cent were reported
as deserters.
General Ainsworth urges the pur-
suit and punishment of deserters,
not for the corrective effect such ac-
ton may have upon the deserters
themselves, but for the deterrent ef-
feet upon Others and from this point
of view he argues the inadvisability
of restoring apprehended or surrend-
cred deserters to duty and to status
of honor in the army.
In regard to the actual strength of
the army Oct. Is, 1910, the report
shows that there were 4,310 officers
and G7,459 enlisted men in the regu-
lar army and 166 officers and 5,10O
enlisted men in the Philippine scoups,
making a total of 4,467 officers and
1859 enlisted men, not including g.
4S6 enlisted men of the hospital corps
but including 1877 first lieutenants or
the medical reserve corps on active
duty.

Appeals to Senator Root.

| The idea that this society will strive
| for judicial" settlement of interna-
| tiOnal disputes, as its name would in
dicate appeals particularly strongly
to Senator Root.
81 suppose you are going to urge"
said Senator Root, that disputes be-
tween nations shall be settled by
judges acting under the judicial sense
of honorable obligation, with a judi
cial idea of impartiality, rather than
by diplomats acting under the diplo-
matte ideas of honorable obligation
and feeling bound to negotiate set
tlement, rather than to pass without
fear or favor upon questions of fact
and law.
"The extraordinary scope Of judi
cial power in this country" adds Sen
ator Root, has accustomed us to see
the operation of government and
questions arising between sovereign
states submitted to judges who apply
the test of conformity to establish
principles and rules of conduct en-
| bodied in our constitution. 1t IS easy,
| therefore, for Americans to grasp the
/ idea that the same methods OF settle
ment should be applied to questions
growing out of the conduct of nations.
/ In countries where the courts have
no such power, the idea is quite a
new one to most people and, If it is
| to prevail, there must be a process
of education. Such process will nat
urally receive its chief impulse in the
United States, and | hope this society
will give such an impulse with vigor
and accurate direction"
The work that the American So
ciety for the judicial settlement Of
international disputes has done in the
first eight months of its existence has
been largely in the way of strengthen
ing the organization and OF outlining
/ its educational campaign. Its real
effective work will begin with the
