Followers of the Prophet Celebrates
 New Year Today

This is New Years day for nearly one-seventh of the worlds population. and marks the beginning of the year 1884 of the Mohammedan era. The 250, 100000 followers of the prophet use calendar which dates from the year 622 A. D., when the Hegira or of Mohammed to Medina ushered in the year 1 of the Mohammedan era. The founder of Islam was forced to flee Mecca, his native city, because of the prosecutions of the defender of the old heather faith. The Prophet ap- pears in the full light of history with his flight to Medina. and the Hegra, has been appropriately chosen as the epoch of the Moslem era. Had Mo manned remained\ in Mecca he would doubtless have been slain, and while his disciples might have been able to matter for grave doubt. By fleeing hammed lived to see the complete tri- urnph of the faith he had built up of fragments of older religions.
 The Moslem New Year is celebrated in ways as diverse as mark the obser- vance of the Christian New Year. Just as Christians are divided in warning camps of Roman Catholics, Greek Catholics and Protestants of many varieties, so is Islam divided up in multitude of sects. Broadly speaking there are two major divisions in Mo hammedanism, the Shiahs and the Sunnites. Within these two great divisions, which have even less in com mon than Catholics and Protestants among Christians, are many sub divisions and there are no less than

 The Turkish allies of the German Emperor represent but small part or the Moslem world, and, although the Sutan of the Ottoman Empire is by courtesy the Head of the Faithful, he has in reality no more power over the masses of Mohammedans than the Pope of Rome has over Protestants The ttjehad" or 'holy war proclalTneu by the heads of the Turkish church has had little effect upon Moslens be- yond the confines of Turkey. The Ot- toman Empire has population or only about 20 100000. and not all of these are adherents of Mohammedan- ism. Even in his own dom1n1onS the Sultan's authority is flouted by the Arab population south of Mecca, the holy city of inc faith. While profess ed Mohammedans, these Arabs have for centuries opposed Turkish author1- ty and in the present war they have helped the British whenever possible.
 China has a third more Moslems than Turkey, but the Chinese Moharn- medans certainly could not be lnduceo to fight for the Sultan. The same IS true of the nearly ninety millions of Mohammedans of India and other British possessions in Africa, Asia and the East Indies. Among the African soldiers now fighting for FraI'"N in europe there are IIlSAI1yt VI Mohammedans, and although France has some 45, 1000, 900 Mosle1n subjects tn Africa they have shown no d1spos1- ton to aid the Sultan. Even little Hol- land rules more Mohammedans that the Sultan of Turkey, for in Queen Wtlhemrnina's East Indians islands there are nearly 25,000,0oo followers of the Prophet. The Czar of Russia has nearly 15 00O,00O Moslem subjects and thousands of them are fighting in his armies.

President Thwing
 of Western Reserve
 Has Son in War Zone

] Df. Charles Franklin Thwing. for a 1 quarter of a century the president o1 Western Reserve University at Cleve- land, will pass his sixty second mile stone today, having been born at New Sharon, Maine Nov g, 1863 The dis | tinguished educators son recently re- nounced his American citizenship in order that he might enter the British army, as a second lieutenant of the Fifth Lancers. tfI m proud of the boy said Dr. Thwing,y and admire his pluck. He has the courage of his con victions, and he can be naturalized to American citizenship when he cdmes home.'' - pr. Thwing graduated from Harvard in 1876 and from Andover TheoIogi- cal Seminary three years. later when he was ordained to the Congregational ministry. He was pastor of churches in Cambridge, Mass, and Minneapolis before he was chosen president of Western Reserve University and AdeI- bert College in 1890. The institution of which he is the head represents the consolidation of various educational instituti ons, Adclbert College, found ed in 1926 under the name of Western IReserve College, being the parent or ganization.
 Dr.ez Thwing believes that higher education in America will not be seri- ously affected by the European war. tsThe chief affects of the war has had already, or will have, upon the higher education in America he thinks, Ire lates to the general unrest and uncer- tainty arising in the minds of men from the fact of the war itself, and from the possibilities of American government becoming directly involv- ed. That great and ever increasing part of the higher education known as research will still go forward In la boratory and library, scholars will con : tinAe to pursue their vocation Of seek ing for discovering and publishing
 what seems to be the truth. Indeed, the war may promote the cultivation of this field. For scholars who, in time of peace, would have gone to Ger many, or France, or England, will stay at home and other scholars, too, may come from foreign parts to purue their investigations in the universities of America. The promise of the college year in America becomes even more glorious when contrasted with the devastation which obtains in the ranks of the students of Oxford and Cam bridge, of Jena, Heidelberg and Der hne Y4

The fashion of throwing an Oriental rug across a table beneath the read ing lamp is growing with artistic fur nishers. It is a, safe thing to do as one can hardly make a mistake in cIashing colors. The small Hamadans used as saddlebacks on came1s, and the soft toned Be1o0chistans in dull red or brown are admirable for this purpose. The light from a shaded lamp brings out the color and sheen.

Of the many truths demonstrates Q by. this war, not the least importan Is that the spirit of natfona-lism is stronger than religious faith. Of course, no such demonstration was needed in the case of Christians, who have always fought each other, but 1t was believed by many than Islam would rise superior to nationa1isn and that where the Sultan led the 1doslen world would follow.
