to represent treat of bloody deeds. There are Cinderella and Beauty and the Beast to tell of the rewards which goodness in the gentler forms may bring. In Pandora and Blue Beard IS the rebuke of seeking forbidden Knowledge. No people and no age are without their legends. The Star and the Lily is an Indian myth of mystic meaning. Strange relation ships in this legendary lore may be traced. The Wooing of the Maid of Beauty is known by another name in the country from which it originated, Finland. There the title is Kaleyala. This legend of the Films has found its way down through the centuries to suggest the measure of Hiawatha. To remind this practical, workaday l generation that young, prosaic Amer ica has its legends, the Yelled Prophet presents a scene from Rip Van Wrinkle"
 Yelled Prophet Up-to-Date
 lnsomuch as all large nations make use of aeroplanes and submarines, the Yelled Prophet feels that he can em- ploy them without being in the least unneutral. The courier's description of float No. 1 follows:
 "As beiits days of the aeroplane and the submarine, the builder has designed for the Yelled Prophets thirty-eighth journey through the streets of St. Louis a combination of sky wagon and water craft. He has departed from the massive triumphal cars of former years. This year the Grand Oracle and the High Priests have a conveyance equipped for travel in the air or in the water. The motive power is no longer the gigan- tic sea serpent or the ponderous mas todOn. Here are spirited horses that have wings for use when the com mand is to soar aloft and fins when the trip is by sea. Eagles perch on the tails of these strange animals. A silken canopy as airy as a parachute is the only covering. Dolphins sport on either side. Stars look down from above. Nodding flowers in the midst of light draperies form the back ground. Never before has the Yelled Prophet appeared in such a novel and artistic conveyance"
 Description of Title Float.
 The title float a picture of which illustrates this article, is described by the courier as follows:
 Forecasts of the wonders to follow crowd the title float The roc. that mighty fowl, which laid eggs that were fifty paces round and which car ried humans more safely than a Zen pelin or an aeroplane, is poised for flight Upon it's back is seated a young woman with tablet and pencil to rec. ord the wonders seen. Delighted chil- dren dance around and point upward 10 the woman OH the roc, in anticipa- tion of the legends and myths she will discover and tell them In this day there are those students of child nature who earnestly advocate that myths and legends-fairy tales if YOU like that description better-should always be available to the juvenile mind. They argue with force that strange tales are most valuable text books. They rank the wonder story as more important in the early period of life than the multiplication table, the grammar and the geography. Why? Because the myth and the legend stimulate the imagination and that is the first step in education. If this be so, then the Yelled Prophet has prepared an extraordinary lesson lOI NOuuS Ol. LOUIS III JDlS pageant of 1915. A monster with a sword such as Hercules might have yielded driven to the hilt in it's head sprawls in death agony. A woman holding aloft the great star of hope rides a Bengal tiger, teaching that brute force must always yield to beauty. So much is there to be seen and com prehended on this title float that it will pass all too quickly"
