FRENCH PRESIDENTS FIRST ~
MESSAGE GIVES STRONG VIEWS
BY United Press.

BY United Press.
Paris, Feb. 21.-President Poin-
cares first message to parliament. was
read Thursday It was short, but ex-
pressed strong views as to the army
and navy. d, -.
"Peace is impossible by the will of
one nation alone" the message de-
clared. "The adage that it is i'm
possible to remain at peace unless
ready for war was never truer than
it is today and France should not be
exposed to humiliation. 1t would be
crime against civilization to allow
France to decline in the midst of ma
tions which never cease to augment
their military forces. Let us, there
fore, turn our thoughts toward our
army and navy, which are our most
useful aides to diplomacy and hesitate
at no sacrifice that may be necessary
to strengthen these forces" -

WHAT DOES "LURID" MEAN?
Popular Usage Of the Word 10 Opposed
to its Definition, Which
10 "PaIe,"

Two men got into an argument re.
garding the meaning of the. word
"lurid.'' One of them had used the
word, as the police reporter uses it. to
describe the red glare in the sky
made by a Hire at night. The other
man objected to this, asserting that
the word "lurid" means pale" in
Read of deep red" Thereupon they
applied to the dictionaries and found
them agreed in defining "lurid" az
pale, wan, CHASTITY pale"
But the Oxford Dictionary has
caught up with the new and popula,
meaning of the word with this def1ni
ton:
Shining with red glow or glare
amid darkness (said of lightning
flashes across dark clouds or flame
mingled with smoke)."
But this seems to be gratuitous OF
the Oxford Dictionary. The word
'lurid" started out it seems as Latin
adjective meaning pale, yellow" II
was used chiefly of the complexion
much as "sallow" is used. Then II
grew to have the meaning of "ghast
ly." But its transition into the popu.
lar meaning given it today seems to
have been due to the willfulness of the
press, which found it handy word
to describe a phenomenon for which
no other word had, apparently, quite
the desirable Observation-Disclosures

ROMANS USED SAFETY,soPlNS
That Many Familiar Articles Are Of
Ancient Origin Has Been Proved
by Finds Made.


Pins fashioned exactly like those of
today called by us safety pins," have
been found in Roman and Etruscan
tombs, some being referred to period
prior to the birth of Christ.
The safety pin, it seems, was an ar.
ticle of common use In Italy long be-
fore the Roman empire attained the
height of it's glory. The material of
which they we're made, however,
seems always to have been bronze.
The collar stud il another ancient
invention. While It is true the old
Romans did not make use of buttons
for the purpose of fastening their gar
ments, and they wore no collars, yet
they possessed q sort of collar stud,
which was used In conjunction with
the safety pin in a number of ways.
Who would imagine that the little
paper fastener, with which we are fa-
miliar, the brass device that holds a
number Of loose sheets of paper to-
gether, was more than two thousand
years old? Yet such is the fact, since
such a device was employed by the
Roman soldiers Of that era as an Incl.
dental OF their costumes or uniform.
The belt of thin, copper worn by the
old legions was fastened to strip of
cloth, serving as a. lining, with a series
Of little bronze clamps precisely like
the paper fastener in principle.
" Thimbles are ancient. Some speci-
mems are known to be $500 years old.
They are of bronze, and their outer
surfaces show the familiar indenta-
lions for engaging the head Of the
needle. These thimbles are precisely
like our modern ones, except that they
have no tops to cover the end Of the
finger. - ..~@4 =r

COAST SERVICE May COME
Movement Started in Duluth to Petit
ton the g. n. and N. P. Lines
For Through Trains.
BACKED BY COMMERCIAL CLUB

Backed by the Commercial club, q
giant petition Is being circulated in
Duluth asking the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific to effect II
rangements whereby through trains
may be run from the head of the
lakes to the Pacific coast. Should
such a service be secured over the
Great Northern, it will come through

At a banquet given for President
Howard Elliott of the Northern Paci-
fic in Duluth last week, it was de-
cided that this was one way in which
to bring to the attention of the roads
the fact that there is a demand for
such = service. Ahthe present time
all coast trains from Minnesota are
operated from St. Paul and people in
the Northern part of the state
go there, to Grand Forks or to Fargo.
The Surrey cutoff in North Dakota
is nearing completion and it is be-
lieved by some that it makes possible
the operation of through trains. Il.
e. Chamberlain, local agent of the
Great Northern, said yesterday after
noon that he had heard of the move
ment only through press reports. !

Brief HOLIDAY.

Joy IL like a bird in fight, which
dips in its passing and touches US
with it's wings. It comes from out of
a far country and it tracks it's way
on high. After that brief lowering
it will recover its former attitude, it's
speed, and song. It's throbbing heart
passes high over our throbbing. cit
les and frozen hills. As we watch
that's fight Of untrammeled wing we
wish; that somehow we might cap.
ture that blitheness and teach It to
dwell among men. Why should it
pause but never abide? We would
have that Joy abide so fxedly that it
would become peace. The holiday
season is like that. It stoops for
a little out Of space, draws near our
dim earth, and sheds its brightness
among men. AS swiftly rs it came, so
swiftly it goes again. And yet each
year it draws more close and stays
for a longer time; It's radiance is re.
vealed to US more clearly, full of
grace and truth.-C ollier's Weekly.
