A Quick
Revenge
Story of the Balkans
QS = "A n
By r. A. mitchell

The incipient cause, or at least the
pretended cause, Of the war between
the triple alliance and the triple en-
tente was when a struggle was in
augurated between the Christians and
the Turks in the Balkan states. About
1908 the Christians made preparations
to throw off the yoke Of their Moham-
medan masters, who had dominated
them for centuries. The condition OF
the people was terrible.
When this became intolerable the
Christians began to organize for revo-
luton. But all must be secret, and to
work in secret was extremely difficult,
for Turkish soldiers patrolled the coun-
try and were always on the watch for
some movement on the part of those
they were keeping subservient to them.
In each town or hamlet was a revo-
%lutionary committee, which met, usual
ly, in some loft where it was secure
from the enemy's spies.
But these committees must form
some sort of union, for so long as they
worked separately they could accom-
plish nothing. The only way such a
union could be formed was through Sc
cret communications. This developed
a number Of persons whose business it
was to carry messages between the
revolutionary committees.
One night one Of these messengers
was summoned to attend a meeting Of
a revolutionary committee to be held
In the cellar of the dwelling Of one
of the committeeman. The town in
which the meeting took place was only
a hamlet, and all vas dark by 8 o'clock.
At the appointed hour the messenger
appeared before the house. the door
silently opened. and the man passed in

Persistent Questions,

Seat all the players save three in a
row. The first of these three goes to
each player and whispers in his ear
some sentence descriptive of where he
is supposed to be, the second player
follows with a sentence telling what
he is supposed to be doing. and the
third tells him whom he is supposed
to be with. The first of the three then
calls the name of some player, and
that player must give in one long sen
tcnce the three given him. If he
laughs he pays a forfeit. AS the three
leaders are each ignorant of what the
other gives the results are apt to be
ludicrous.
One player saying. II am in the mid
die of the Atlantic ocean popping corn
with Mary Smith," while another de-
clares, II am in an airship darning
stockings for Joe Brown" is apt to
provoke a gale of merriment.

The Meaninu of Calumet,

You will often run across the word
calumet in connection with Indian
tales of war, and unless you are IA
miliar with it's meaning you are apt
to be puzzled by it.
Calumet is the name of the peace
pipe used by the North American In
dams. 1t consisted of a tobacco pipe
having a large bowl. generally of pol
ished red marble or sandstone, and a
stem of reed or painted wood decorat-
ed with feathers and about two and
one-half feet long. After a peace
treaty had been signed the Indians
used to fill the pipe with the best to-
bacco and present it to the represent
atives of the party with which they
had made peace, themselves smoking
it afterward. The Indians also pre-
sented the calumet to any visitor, and
to refuse it was to declare war with
those who proffered it. The word
calumet is not in itself Indian; it is a
Norman word meaning shepherds
pipe and was given by the early French
settlers to the Indian pipe of peace be-
cause of its general resemblance to the
instrument of the field.
