IMPROVEMENTS IN
 PALESTINE BEING
 MADE BY TURKS
Roads Being Extended and Railroads Built in Prepar- ation for Military Op-
 erations Against Egypt

Berlin, July 1o.-(Corespondence of the Associated Press)-Palestine is undergo ina a great transformation in the mat ter of railway communication improved highways and better sanitary conditions. This is evident from letter to the Frank Jaffa, the seaport of Jerusalem, who has been interviewing Djemal Pasha, the mill itary governor of Syria. This work has all been undertaken since Turkey went to war and is largely in preparation for extensive military operations against Egypt. Already, according to Djemal Pasha, the Suez canal has been mined and ono ship sunk.
 Immediately after my arrival in Syria, ? said Djemal, who is one of the leaders of the dominant ''young Turk party, '.rny first work was to take measures to improve and extend the roads. Many battalions of workmen were organized for the purpose of building important new roads and putting into repair old ones that had become useless. Formerly you could not go further south in a car riage than Hebron. but already I can ride in my automobile through Hebron and Beersheba out into the desert"
 Here the correspondent remarks that he spent a whole day last year riding horse- back from Hebron to Beersheba, where the distance can now be covered by auto- mobile in one hour.
 within a short tirne." Djemal went on.

USE PRISONERS TO
 HARVEST THE CROPS

Orleans, July %.-The experimental use of German prisoners of war as harvestere has begun here in the old province of Orleans. It may solve the question of the harvest without the return of the soldiers at the front
 Two hundred Germans who were cap tured at Carency and sent to the prison camp at Issoudun were transferred to Malesherbes and there in groups of 20 sent to the different communes that have applied to the military authorities for farm help. Each detachment is placed under the supervision of the mayor of the commune acting for the military au- thorities, and is subject to the same dis cipline as in camp.
 The men are to be paid at the rate of about $10 per months, in addition to tfeir board and lodging, directly by those who employ them.
 Thus far the experiment has developed no difficulties and if 1t continues to prove successful other conveys of 200 each will be sent to other farming centers.
 The present harvest outlook in the great wheat country of the Beauce sur passes all previous expectations as to yield and quality

stakes or piles put up by fishermen for better convenience of securing fish. A weir by old country folk, is always called a hatch.
 Hatch or hacche is also term for a bar athwart woodland path. or in a forest, to prevent deer escaping.
 If Henry lived near hatch, he would be called Henry atte hatch" or Henry at hatch,'' and is course of time Henry Hatch or Hatcher. Richard atte Hache and Philip de la Hache are names we come across in old records. Hatchman and Hatchett are variations of the name.
 Hache is a name occurring in Domes- day Book; also Achard, another form of Hatchard
 of the Hatch family.
 William of Scituate, Mass, is one of the Pilgrim fathers who helped to build up this country. He was born in England. Another progerlitor was his brother Thomas, who made a home at Boston. They came from Sandwich, Kent county, about 1634 in the Hercules.
 William the Pilgrim brought wife and five children and six servants. One son. Walter, married first Elizabeth Hol- brook by whom he had eight children for his second wife, Mary, whose last name has not been handed down 70 us.
 The coat of arms borne by the de- scendants of Thomas and William Hatch, pilgrims was the armorial bearing of Thomas Hatch, lord of the manor of Slut ton, Sussex, descendant of an ancient Devonshire family.
 It Is emblazoned as follows: Gules, two demi-lions rampant, or.
 Crest, demi-lion, rampant, or, hold- ing between his paws sphere. with a cross patee fitchee.
 Motto, 'Fortis valore Et Armis"-Brave by valor and by arms.
 Safer with Hope Than with Arms" Is another motto of the Hatch family.
 ITO a collateral descendant Of Frank lin." who asks whether Benjamin Frank lin bore a coat of arms:
 The coat of arms used by Benjamin Franklin was that of the Franklyns of Devon, England. It is described as arg ent on a bend between two lions heads; gules, g dolphin, endowed of the field, between two branches, vert. Motto, Pro rege at patria"-"For King and country. Another motto is ''Exemplum adest ipse homo"-"Conduct marks the man." A motto was war cry, and not permitted to persons below a certain rank. The lion is one of the most noble of heraldic de- vices, signifying. among other things, strength and boldness; this Is also the meaning in heraldry of the color gules The spotless white of argent. when com. bined with gules, indicates courage.

 Sanitary conditions, said Djemal. wer satisfactory. in spite of the mobilizatio of troops. The fight against epidemic dis eases had been facilitated he said, by tn international health office established al Jerusalem some years ago by Natha1 Straus of New York and number sS German philanthropists.

we have built over 100 Iilometers of rail- way and have connected Jerusalem with the Hejaz railway tthe road that runs south from Aleppo and Damascus, over the plateau to the east of the Jordan, and on southward to Mecca). You doubtless know how anxious the English were to prevent the building of this connection They refused to give the French. their own allies, the right to carry this road through Ramleh because they were de- termined under any and all circumstances to prevent a land connection from Syria and Anatolia to Egypt. Now we want to carry these roads still further, and hope that we shall soon be able to transport our troops by rail to the Suez canal. After our troops enter Egypt, an event which I confidently expect, these rail- ways will be connected with the Egyptian system of roads.
 The correspondent thinks that this rail- way building will prove of epoch-maising importance for the development of Pales- tine.
 Djemal went on to show what the Turkish troops have already accomplished in preparing for the conquest of Egypt. We have pushed forward our frontier,

A CORNER IN ANCESTORS
By FRANCES cowLEs. THE MACL FAN FAMILY

Sixteen thousand of the clan Mac rsaan-probably more-are still in Sect land So f. in the early days of tie New World. some few hardy pioneers Of the name found occasion to leave their old home for American shores. 1t Is It. tie wonder. Now, 1t is said. over 2O,000 MacLeans or McLeans or McLanes live in North America.
 The faimly seat--the ancestral fam fly seat-of all the MacLeans Is the island of Null. one of the islands of the Hebrides, on the west coast of Scotland, In the county of Argyllshire. This is a picturesque little island of some $50 square miles, with Ben More a mountain of 31s5 feet. topping many smaller hills; many charming lakes dotting the interior and beautiful woodland The climate Of Null is stormy and damp. so agriculture is somewhat neglected there in favor of cattle rais- ing.
 In this island the clan MacLean nprang. The name Is first heard of in the thirteenth century. About 1850 there was chef called Gilleain-from ghille, meaning servant and coin, meaning John. Her son, MacGilleain, the son (rnao stands for son in Scotch names) of the servant of John. was the first man to bear the name MacLean, in It's ear Nest form.
 From 1865 to 14s3 the MacLeans served as vassals of the lords of the isles--the ruler of the Hebrides-but from 1493 to 151S they were an indo- pendent clan, and one of the strongest in Scotland. From 151s to 1746 they spent all their energy in the serivce of the house of Stuart-the house to which Mary, Queen of Scots, and the English kings, James I and II and Charles I and II, belonged. Since 174s there has been less romance surround ing the MacLeans, but even in the pro- saio light of present day history they stand out as one of the strongest and best of Scotch families
 The war cry of the ancient MacI.eans was '-Bas no Beatha"-'Death or Life and probably in this defiant motto is held the secret of the spirit that made the MacLeans invincible
 Neil served under Sir I.achland Mac Lean, seventeenth chief of the clan

are used.
 The new styles are elegant charming and above all sensible. Gone are the days of the
 ssplit skirt" and the ''hobble skirt" and such evidences of extravaganza and degener- ate taste. There is an air of simplicity and serviceability about the new suits that will be well received by discriminating ones The new materials are rich and elegant and well suited to the demands of style and the most exacting.
 We'd be glad if you came at your conven- fence.
