EXPLORERS IN EGYPT
FIND TOMB OF OSIRIS
Hidden at End of Subterranean
Passage, But Texts on Walls
Give Clue.

LONDON. March 15.-Prof. E. Ma
vile, In a letter published in the Times
on excavation of the Egypt exploration
fund at Abydos. expresses the behet
that they have found what Greek au-
thors called the Tomb of Osiris. where
the head Of the god is supposed to be
preserved"
The excavation began at the door
which Prof. Petrie discovered two years
ago. The doorway, Prof. Naville thinks,
was the entrance to passage lead
ing to a subterranean chapel under the
temple of Seti /.

Agriculture.

How many scouts have noticed this
winter that the surface of the ground
in many places is soft and caves in
under the feet in grassy and weedy
places?'
Just part the grass and examine the
ground carefully. You will probably
find 1t full of little round holes, and the
surface of the ground marked with lit
tie ''roads'' an inch wide running in
every direction. These roads lead to
burrows. You can find these runways
almost anywhere in the country where
there is grass or weeds for cover, even
IL you cannot feel the burrows with
your feet.
IT is worth while to trace these run
ways over the ground and learn some
thing Of the life OF the animals which
make them. There is no harm IN set

Boy Scout Letters

TO the scout EdI,or:
Scouts OF Troop 43 have apparently
solved the problem OF hiking during the
winter weather. and have thus man.
aged to avoid the rainy Saturdays. Most
Of our hikes are taken on Sunday. Many
Of our scouts come from Hebrew fami-
lies, who hold their Sabbath religious
services on Saturday. The Sunday hike
is arranged to accommodate these.
The Catholic boys Of our troop at
tend carry mass on Sunday and thus
have remainder of the day to spend
in an outing. The Protestant boys at
tend church in the evening. This ar
rangement thus accommodates all three
classes Of boys who are members of
our troop. In addition an opportunity
Is given for the boys who have to work
to get out into the open and have an
outing with the rest of the troop.
We now have six first class scouts
and are planning to have a number OF
merit badges soon.
Very truly yours.

A MAGNIFICENT oRAToRlo.
The Musicale BY the Vested Choir Of
the Second Baptist Church a
Financial and Artistic
Success.

The rendition of the Oratorio, THE
Seven Last Words of Christ" by Du-
bois, Thursday night, was one Of the
most musical and artistic treats of
the year. More than 500 persons,
among whom were quite a few of the
leading white people of the city,
heard this delightful program and
were loud in their praises of it's ex-
cellence. The management and ar
rangements were in the hands of that
cultured, accomplished and tireless
worker in her distinguished husbands
church, Mrs. DR.. S. w. Bacote, and it
is needless to say that every detail
was carefully arranged.
Mrs. Bacote deserves all the splen-
did compliments she received on this
magnificent presentation and she is
distinct and valuable asset to the
race in this city.
The soloists were Mesdames L. ].
Bacote, Corinne Lester and Miss Les
sic King, sopranos; VIM. Briggs and
F. Fichne, tenors, and F. Wright and
Jas. Anderson, bassos, while Miss
Lula Knox presided at the organ. Mr..
J. Ellison, trombonist, with Mrs. Ba-
cote at the piano and director.
A beautiful souvenir program from
the artistic print shop of Mr.. Arthur
w. Harris, was given each patron
and today all who were present are
loud in their praise of DR.. and Mrs.
Bacote.

A SUCCESSFUL PHYSICIAN.

No physician in either of the Kan
sas Cities has built up more lucra-
tive practice nor achieved such re-
markable success in SO short time
as has DR.. r. c. Hayden, who resides
at 945 Everett avenue, Kansas City,
Kas., and who has an elegant suite
of offices at Fourth and Minnesota
avenue. DIR. Hayden came to Kansas
city, Kas., in 1907, after graduating
with high honors from Meharry Med
ical College of the class of '07, and
in being successful in curing some of
the most difficult cases in Kansas
City, Kas., and Argentine, he began
at once to build up a large practice
in these two cities. There are sew
eral people in Greater Kansas City
who constantly sing the praises of
DR.. Hayden and say after they had
been given up by several other well
known physicians, he was able to re-
store them to complete health and
each one of these happy persons be-
came walking advertisement for
IAlS DlllilduL yOuu6 phy olSloL. I1C
married Miss Estelle Wilson, popu-
lar and accomplished teacher in the
Douglass School, and SO large has his
practice become that he was CON-
PEELED recently to purchase hand
some new Hudson automobile in or
der to be able to reach quickly his
numerous patients. He and his esti-
mable wife are exceedingly popular
among all classes and they are both
of that kind and friendly temperament
that has won them host of friends.
They have two valuable residences,
besides the beautiful home in which
they reside, one at 1403 N. 10th street
and the other at 2S16 N. 9Th street,
both of which are rented to splendid
tenants and for which he receives a
neat income. DR.. Hayden's phenome-
nal success should be an inspiration
to every competent and aspiring
young man and that success which he
has achieved in such large degree
can be found only by earnest appli-
cation to duty and constant devotion
to ones profession. The Negroes Of
the two Kansas Cities are proud of
DR.. R. c. Hayden.

MASONIC.

1t Is to be regretted that the
Masonic bodies of Kansas City
nave not taken up the idea of
making an annual sermon display
1t was argued strongly years ago
and Is now believed by many pro-
ianes that Masonry is a non-re-
ngious cult. Nothing would serve
a better purpose in fefuting such
a misnomer than proper service
once each year. The Grand Lodge
a rev years ago went on record as
endorsing the idea and even sug-
gested a day for the observance.
In few points in the jurisdiction
the plan is followed with crafty
ing results. 80
1t Is true that Masonry Is a con-
servative art and has never de-
pended upon any sort of vain SHOW
for holding its place in the public
esteem, but 1t Is also true that
any unreasonable conservatism is
calculated to work more harm
than good and this seems to be a
point whereupon the practical side
might be very sensibly observed.
Masondy is strictly religious in
stitution. The world should not
only be told this but 1t should be
openly shown by a Iofinal oDserv-
ance at least once a year NAll
bodies and branches of the craft,
male and female, uniting in such
a demonstration annually would
not only serve to eXtol the cause
of Christ but would further exalt
the glory of the oldest secret in
stitution in the world.
