TIE CHRISTIANS N ENGLAND
 HELPING GERMAN MISSIONARIES
Hearts of Distressed Workers in German Missions Are Touched and Cheered by Offers of Assistance from British Societies; Gladstone News from Many Lands; New Scheme for Sunday School Missionary Work

Cross" Dr. Henry Anet, delegate Of the Protestant churches of Belgium says the churches should now be called les Eglises Sous Ie Glaive, or The Church under the Sword"
 Dr. Anet writes that the churches, as well as the people, are passing through the fires of fiercest trial. The most of the fighting has taken place right along the line of our mission stations Nearly all our buildings have till now been spared, but most of our church members are suffering from the war.
 pr. Anet's description of the suffer ings of the people is very pathetic, ali the more so because they did nothing to bring these calamities upon them. He says: Many had their houses de stroyed; blown up for the firing range, pulled down by the shells in the bat ties, and bombardments, or put on fire rurpOsely. Many shopkeepers and traders had their shops and stores either burned down or footed Most of our people are working people; they are generally unemployed. The few wealthy people we have in our churches are either ruined or unable to get cash out of the banks. Many have seen death at close quarters and escaped only by a miracle. Others had to fly before the invasion, and some have not yet returned to their viii lages."
 Attention is called to the fact tna> several pastors and colporteurs are away from home, but all the services and meetings are maintained, laymen taking the places of the ministers. The prayer meetings are held daily, or several times a week. Never have so large audiences attended upon the worship Of God
 Gratefully approaching the gerer- 2sity of America in feeding the starv- ing millions of his fellow-coUntrymen Dr. Anet asks the Protestant people of England and America to help his -rethrin to carry on their work

Stanley James and R. F. LeMatt, who left New York on January 9 in their Stutz auto, arrived in Yuma this morning.
 They encountered snow from the start until Albu- querque, N. M., was reached. Their last fight through snow was a strenuous three-dayS experience through the New Mexico mountains. The snow was two feet on the level and banked into drifts in places which meant virtually that they shoVeled their way out. The first day they made seven miles; the second, five miles, and the third day, nine miles.
 Some of their experiences, as related by Mir. James at the Examiner office this morn ing are of interest.
 They are racing 10 the San Francisco fair, and Mir. James states that their trip has been very free from accident, and that there is New York air still in their tires, which is going some, " we must ad- nit.
 James, as well as LeMat, is also an aviator, and is a pro- fessional stock actor. LeMat, besides being an aviator, is an athlete and automobiliSt.

Moulmein.

The "old Moulmein pagoda' stands on
a height ins the center Of the sleepy
Burmese city, its golden dome, ringed
with little tinkling bells, glistening in
the eastern sun. Moulmein is the heart
of lower Burma and the great pagoda
is the heart of Moulmein. Its quiet
priests, its benevolent, inscrutable Bud
dhas, its reverent. good-natured wor-
shippers are Burma itself.
In Moulmein lies the mystery of the
orient. as it lies in all cities east OF
Suez, but it is not the hostile. half
menacing mystery of the Malay Islands
or the Flowery Kingdom. You feel that
the mystery of Moulmein is kindly
one, probably even some sort of a good
.natured joke. There is nothing menac-
ing in the placid Burmese faces about
you, the smiling girls and the Laughing
children. Even the mystery OF an alien
creed. in the great pagoda, has become
only mild and friendly difference OF
opinion.
Moulmein is a place Of color and
good humor. Everybody wears robes
of red and green and blue. In addition

for it's pretty girls. In the early days
of the British occupation many Tom

Some of them are truly beautiful. even
after western standards. but the gen.
eral effect is somewhat marred by their
custom of busting their faces perfectly

Peter Learns Many Things.

Hardly had Peter Rabbit left white

cred some new tracks in tho snow. and
right away he was all curiosity.
Now whose can these be. I wonderr'
thought he
They were quite different from the
tiny tracks OF Whitefoot. In the first
place they were ever so much larger.
Then, too, they were quito far apart
in little groups of four. two little
round ones and two quite long ones.
''Of course" said Peter to himself,
''the little ones are the prints OF front
feet and the long ones are the prints
of hind feet. They are just little like
my own prints. only not so big. I
guess I'll follow them and see where
they lead to-
So Peter started or lipperty- -lipperty-

follow. He had followed them quite n
distance without discovering anybody

when he happened to look back at his
own tracks Then he stopped abruptly
tracks and then he looked at the other
tracks, and a very foolish look crept
over his face. He had noticed what he
had quite forgotten, and this was that
in hopping he puts his hind feet down
in front of his fore feet SO that any
one who didn't know that would think
from his tracks that he was going in
just the opposite direction from what
he was He looked a little closer at the
tracks he had been following and now
he could see the marks OF toenatls.
Whoever had made those trarks did
just as he did, put the hind feet down
in front OF the fore feet. and hero he
had been following them in the wrong
direction. No wonder he didn't catch
up with any one My. how foolish
Peter did feel, He looked this way and
that way to make sure that no one had
seen what he had been doing, and then
he turned about and started hack the
way he had come as fast as he could
go.
When he reached the place where he
had first begun to follow the tracks
he kept right on. Presently he came
to a place where some one had dug
down through the snow. Right beside
the little hole was an empty nutshell.
Peter stopped and right away he lost
all interest POOH he exclaimed.
I'm not going to waste my time fol-
lowing those tracks any farther. They
were made by Happy Jack Squirrel.
and he's at home in bed now. Funny
didn't think of him before. Next time
see his tracks I'll know them. SO per-
haps my time hasn't been wholly
wa st ed"
With this Peter once more went look
ing for tracks. and he didn't have far
to look. This tine they were big round
tracks in a single row. Peter took one
good look at them and that was
enough.
"Reddy Fox he exclaimed under his
breath. This is no place for me II he
that is they head away from where L
have been. I hope he won't take 1t into
his head to come over this way"
Making the longest jumps he knew
how, Peter hurried OF to another part
of the Green Forest, and there pres
emily he forgot all about Reddy Fox
in his interest in another set of tracks.
These were in double row. and II was
very plain to Peter that whoever made
them was in no great hurry. He fol-
lowed them, and presently came to an
old stump with a hole under it, The
track led straight down into that hole
and none came out. Peter grinned.

And, kicking his long heels together
for sheer joy, Peter started on TO look
for more tracks.
