The Ten Thousand Greeks
By REV, THOMAS B. GREGORY.

n BOUT March 6, 401 &. c.. Cy-
~ rus the Younger, with an
army of 10000 men. set out
from Sardis, Asia Minor. for Baby
Ion, the capital of the Persian en-
pire, his object being to dethrono
his much hated brother Arta-
XerXes.
Ten thousand of the 10000 were
Greeks, hired by Cyrus. but kent
in ignorance of the real purpose for
which he had employed them. The
army was we'll along toward Baby
lon before it was revealed TO the
Greeks that they were to fight
against the Greek king, and the
distance from home being too great
for them to think of returning.
nothing was left for them but TO
make the best of the situation and
win or lose along with the rest Of
them.
Upon reaching CunaXa. upon the
banks of the Euphrates. about -
miles from Babylon. Cyrus was
impetuously attacked by the king
with an army several hundred
thousand strong. The vast host of
ArtdNerNvs, advancing steadily.
were within less than half a mile Of s.
the Cyrcian line when the Greeks
raised the war cry and began to
move forward. As they advanced
their shouting grew louder and
louder, their pace more rapid. and
at last the whole body was in
run. The Persians did not wait FOR
them, but turned ana ran like
sheep, the Greeks in hot pursuit.
In the meantime. Cyrus. at the
head of chosen body of 500 horse
men, charged the kings bodysuard
of 5000, and put them TO flight.
Then Cyrus did something very
foolish. Catching sight of his
royal brother he cried out: 81 see
the mani and rushed at him with
a mere handful of followers. II
was but the invitation Of the death
which quickly came. When II was
known that Cyrus was dead. his
Persian followers dispersed. and
all that remained Of the invaders
were the Greeks.
Now the Greeks were tu aL,ut ,e

to find out what they were going to

In all literature there is uothiue
to equal Nenophon's story or The
retreat of the 10000 Greeks. Those
who have not read that story have
missed the record of humanitys
most amazing heroism. To learn
what real men can endure, and do,
one needs to read the Anaba sis.
To learn what ssingly great
things Brain Power and Will
Power are, and how unconquer-
able they are by the brute forces

the Anabasis
Let it not be overlooked that it
was this same successful retreat
of the 10000 Greeks that furnished
the conviction out of which. more
than a century later, grew the en-
pire OF Alexander. When the Greeks
saw how the 10000 had defled the

That is enough to weave her

for jail or a coffin to wave their

pay the great price of loyalty and

1t was no gallantson that snarled

"Take Of Your

But young Henderson had no
such cheer as this. He was bearing
his mothers name, not her shield.
He was sharing his mothers sin.

on his bare feet on bare earth
and at the bottom of things.
And he could have done other
wise-could have stayed out of it
with no loss of sympathy.
A sort Of Pharisaism not without
virtuous devotees would have ap-
plauded him for it. He was doubt
less so advised and her unworthi-
ness urged to set him free
But he swept everybody aside

said: She is my mother"

They Touched
Across the Centuries.

The tears were in his eyes. Per-
haps they were tears he brought
with him from the struggle the day
before when ne received the tele-
gram from Atlanta, but he was very
quiet and firm in his manner and
looked all the men straight in the
face
There is a world of time and cir
cumstances between Young Hen
derson and Luther, but think Mar
tin would have loved him. The old
German and the young Alabaman
will not be bracGeted in history
ones great cause being grand and
the others poor cause being pitt

touched across the centuries and
the great man was not ashamed of
the boy.
"Oh, East is East and West is West
And never twain shall meet
Till earth and sky stand presently
At Gods great Judgment Seat.
But there is neither East nor West.

Though they come from the ends
of the earth"

GENERAL RULES FOR TREAT
ING DISEASED POTATOES

The majority of potato diseases
are caused by soil organisms that
live in the soil. The soil originally
becomes infected either from weeds
or the use OF infected potatoes,
The latter cause Is probably respon-
sible In the majority OF cases. Di-
seases which live over from year TO
year can be controlled only with
great difficulty The fusarism, dry
rot and leaf blight potato seab, the
rhyzoctonia diseases are all OF this
character. Very similar mea of
cotro' must be used for each of
these diseases. A few general
rules must be strictly observed.
namely:
2, Never plant seed grown In in
fected soil. The fungus may lie
dormant within the seed ready to
infect the next crop.
3. All seed potatoes should be
soaked for one or two hours In a
solution OF one pint OF formalin to
thirty gallons OF gwater.
4. Do not plant potatoes in your
field for a period of three or four
years II n Of the above men,
toned diseases have been found
there
o. Destroy all infected potatoes.
Never allow infected potatoes to de-
cay on your premises. Decaying
potatoes should be saturated with
lime .or copper sulphate, or
burned.
g.. Spraying as directed further
on for early blight should be Civ
on potatoes infected with late
blight, in order to save the foliage
until tho crop can mature.
Only a few potato diseases in
feet the foliage alone. The most i'm
portant ls that of early blight, caus-
ed by q specie of ma%crosporum. The
attacks of the early blight usually
follow in the wake OF the flea
beetle. To control early blight,
spray with Bordeaux mixture, using
five pounds of copper sulphate and
i've pounds of lime to every fifty
gallons OF water. Add two pounds
lead arsenate to every fifty gallons
OF The spray for scontrol of the flea
beetle. The early blight is readily
recognized by the shot hole appear
