Greek Army Splendid Machine.

The Greek army is a splendid ma

Thanks to the labors of the French
mission, which, within recent years.
has reorgAnized the army. and to the
splendid example of the soldier king,
Constantine, and to the magnificent
victories of the campaigns of the Bal
kan war, the Greek troops find them
selves the equal of any body of fight
ing men in all the world. Martial spir-
it yet remains among Greek men. and
the patriotic Greek regards himself as
of greatest value to the state when he
can present himself with many stall

most walks of life--the birth of a man.
child is regarded as supreme favor,
and large families are the rule in Hell

used to tell me with great amusement
of an evening stroll which he took near
the Acropolis, when he was startled by
a leg of lamb which hurtled through
the open window of cottage, dashed
against the wall of the house opposite
in the narrow street, and dropped at
his feet It was followed by a volley
of angry words. and as he listened he
heard the irate husband berate his wife
because she had given him no sons
which he might give to the army.
THE Greeks are a most democratic
people. One unfortunate result of the
extreme democracy among them is
their disinclination to obey a leader

Emigration Halts Progress.

Modern Greece, the writer says, has

tocol Of 1880, that great praise cannot

men are away in America amassing
modern fortunes.

the people Of this country in a commu.
nication to the National Geographic So
ciety by George Higgins Moses, for
merly United States ambassador to
Greece. A sketch of Mr.. Moses inti-
mate study of Greece of today, its as
pirations, it's accomplishments and it's
sympathies. has just been prepared for
the press by the society. OF the attitude
of the modern Greek Mr.. Moses says:
Greece of today deems herself-and
is, in truth-the heir to the ages Not
only from her classic pasr but from
every era of foreign domination. her
incompatible spirit has taken and as
some feature now distinguish
able in her everyday life. Roman, Ve-
nitian and Moslem have thus paid trib-
ute to the brave people whom they have
overridden. but whom they could not
subdue. There are few parallels-in-
deed, at the present moment j can re-
call but one-to the striking racial
phenomenon of Hellenic continuity
throughout the vicissitudes of 1000
years. Modern research has penetrated
the dark byways of medieval Greek
history, and We now know that the
Greeks. whatever their temporary fate,
have preserved unbroken the thread of
their national existence"

political development, Mr.. Moses tells of
their Great Idea" This Great Idea,' the
writer says, has exerted powerful in
fiuence both upon internal and exter-
nal politics of the nation for nearly
half a century. In brief. 1t is nothing
less than dream of re-establishing
the Byzantine empire under the stand
ard of modern Greece. 1t is the most
dazzling and steadfast inspiration of
the modern Hellenes. and in the pres
ent turbulent and conflicting policies
Of the Greeks. Its varying application
will likely be apparent more often than
any other Greek motive.
"Out of the Great Idea arises that
term of classification which refers to
those of Greek blood who exist under
Turkish. Serb. or Bulgarian jurisdfc-
tion as the 'enslaved BRETHREN" in con-
Creeks of the little kingdom of the
Hellenea and the effort, blood and
treasure expanded by the free Greek
in behalf of their subjugated kindred in
late Balkan wars are incredible in
amount.
I'm pursuit of the Great Idea Greek
bands for years ravaged those portions
of Macedonia and Epirus which are not
preponderantly Hellenic in blood and
aggravated the age-long hatred be-
tween Greek and Bulgar, which with
difficulty was laid aside but once, and
then only long enough to dispossess
the Ottoman oppressor, when it broke
forth once more with redoubled fury.

TIE NEWSPAPER MAN

Elihu Root says, his confidence was
never betrayed by a newspaper man.
Jim Watson, bosom friend of Joe Can
non. and probable nominee for the
presidency in 1916, says as much. 1t
is one of the rules of the game that a
newspaper man buries much that he
hears as deep as it is buried in the con
fessional. 1t is one of the ethics of
the profession never to betray man
and never to release a story until
it is released at the consent of the
man who gave it.
A newspaper reporter may spend
easily what he makes, he Is too busy
thinking of what other minds create,
to do any creating himself. His life
goes whole heartedly into his work.
He may have no bank account, and
much to his credit, he never develops
an eagerness for money that leads him
to accept money to betray or to pun
ish or to color his news columns.
The more one knows of the news
paper man, the more he trusts him.
Many men of big affairs in giving an
interview will take the reporter into
his confidence, tell him the whole sto-
ry. and then go back over it, advising
with him about which is best to use
and which is prudent to leave out The
man who does this, is never betrayed,
the reporter catches the spirit of the
story and when it comes out in the
press, it is so well told that the inter
viewer is pleased with the sentiment
and with the language the reporter
gives him.
The newspaper reporter deserves
to be dealt with honestly He never
forgets the man who gives him a
wrong story to accomplish selfish
purpose. He is easily touched to sym.
pathy by distress and discerns the mo
tives of the impostor more readily
than the man in other walks of life
He is always broad in his views and
never gives room to prejudice. He is a
