GERMANS SIGNAL FROM HOUSE
 OF ENEMY
(By Associated Press Correspondence)

(By Associated Press Correspondenee)
 PARIS, March 1O-The mystery of a lone farm house which stood for months undamaged on a conspicuous knoll in the very heart of the battle zone near Rove, with nothing but ruins all about 1t, has just been cleared up by a French infantry captain.
 From this building the French watched the operations of the Ger. mans in their trenches a quarter of a mile distant, They expected every day to become the target for the Ger man artillery which played all around and even demolished the hut of an old peasant woman only a hundred yards away. Every morning at dawn, they crept up to the place from the rear and took their observations. A peasant farther back of the lines sug. gested that the owner of the farm had paid the Germans a round sum to spare his property and this explanation prevailed for some time.
 One morning as the French ap- preached the place they were met by the peasant women whose hut had been demolished and who had taken refuge in the cellar of the farm house.
 "A spy came last night into the gar ret of the farm house." she declared "and made illuminated signals to the Germans from the window" The French officers could not believe it.
 The next day and the next the old peasant declared positively that she had again seen the man come and had seen the light shining from the win dow. "A spy couldn't possibly slip through our line of pickets." the off cer insisted.
 The following morning the woman asked the officer to take particular notice of the stairs leading to the gar ret. In a thin coating of ashes that she had spread over the steps a mans footprints were unmistakeably outlin- ed. wen see about that tonight, said the captain.
 Instead of returning to the French lines after completing their days ob- servations the detachment concealed itself in bushes around the house and watched the garret window. At elev- en o'clock, though they had seen no one enter the building. lights ap- peared in the window and the captain ordered a rush upon the stairway At the same time a heavy body dropped to the ground on the other side.
 The Germans had tolerated the use of the house by the French during the day in order to utilize it themselves at night. A complete signalling ap- paratus was found but the spy, who knew the place better than the French seemingly, had made good his es- cape.

the hrst army, who has been raised to the rank of Field Marshal, is the hero of the day. He Is a fine, soldierly
 figure. Described as a man of few words, but with wonderful military knowledge, General Mishitch is a vet eran of all the wars that Serbia has fought for the last fifty years. He was second in command of the stafr during the two Balkan wars. He knows every inch of ground over which his troops have to fight and he has been often under fire on his trips from point to point in his automobile or or horseback.
 Field Marshal Putnik, commander ln-chief, whom 1t will be remembered was arrested In Austria while on his way home from that country at the outbreak of the war, Is In poor health due to rude treatment he received from the Austrians at the time of his detention some say. but it seems more probable that his advanced age and the fatigues of the last two campaigns have told upon him.
 The Associated Press correspondent dined at the invitation of a Colonel at the officers mess at the military club, formerly the Turkish palace. He found them keen for news of what was taking place in the other Euro pean fronts, of which he knew little.
 Fresh from their own successful strategy and determined offensive in driving the Austrians back, they could not understand the comparative slow ness of the movements on the west European front. Russia, they know, has many of their own difficulties of insufficient transportation for her forces, but they cannot understand why England and France with every mode Of transport at their conven- fence, with an abundance of supplies and equipment of every kind, should not have made greater headway against the Germans.
 We hope some day" an officer said, "that the Allies will have so far ad- vanced that we can join forces with them, but at present we are keeping to our defensive without regard to their plans. All our time will be spent in reforming our army which Is naturally somewhat shattered by the great trial through which it has pass ed. Now that we have plenty of am intuition and better equipment, it will not again be so easy for the enemy to advance into the heart of our coun- try"
 Do you think Belgrade is now safer" the correspondent asked.
 Yes, unless the Austrians send overwhelming forces against 1t. in war, numbers must always tell up to a certain point. but the Austrians will not win without severe losses 10 themselves as we'll as to us. Our courage, and purpose are in no way lessened, as you may we'll imagine by the fact that We have twice been vic. torious over the enemy. He began the the war, but it is not in his DOW CT or ours to end 1t. We shall stay our Russian and French allies to the very end. And. indeed, since Serbia has Macedonia as a region to fall back upon. it seems very improbable that she will ever be conquered again .s she was once by the Turks"

Formulating a Reliuion,

All this time he has been formulat-
ing a religion. Not a religious sys.
tenn or ecclesiasticism, but a religion.
Ethics deal with human conduct, with
mans relationship with man, but re-
ligion attempts to approach the inf
mite. 1t goes on after the purely
ethical ground has been deserted.
Mans desire to live on forever has
gradually reacted upon himself to
such an extent that it has given this
inherited predisposition toward God
and immortality to every heart.
The problem of religion is for man
to find his relationship with Coda
principle and a force. The revealed
religions are unsatisfactory in this re-
spect to the philosopher and the sci
enlist.
Every man has religion. The mere
process of evolution and his desire for
still greater and better things are a
religion. In the broader sense there
is no unbelief. Men may question,
and justly so, Jehovah and Zeus. The
religion with a man-god will ultimate
ly have fatal attack. But the real
religion of man, religion of the heart
and of love, of growth, expansion and
evolution, all centered around a great
cause in the original constitution of
things, will bring peace and happiness
to mankind everywhere.
Then the songs of the poets. the
conclusions of the philosophers, will
all reveal to us and enable us to expe-
rience the joy of freedom contained in
a verse from a very old book: I'VE
shall know the truth and the truth
shall make you free" A man has given
proof of the power of his religion
when that religion teaches him the
art of living.-Rev. Preston Bradley.
