the chill and rainy weather and the
miry mud OF Northern France have
been their worst enemy. When the
sun shines a smile spreads over the
whole Indian force. Thanks to many
layers of warm clothing and careful
attention, the sick report OF the In
dian troops is normal
All the food of these men has to
be brought from India. Speaking no
word of English, these dusky strang.
ers have come from the other side OF
the world to fight In France for Great
Britain. Billeted in barns. with thick
layers OF straw for their beds, each
race cooking Its food to Its taste and
riding To Its caste customs. they
form q separate world OF never ceas-
ing wonder to French inha bitants.
This morning 5000 cavalrymen
were seen riding by on a muddy road.
with a background OF fat and misty
landscape with all the precision they
would show at royal review. Oc-
casionally among the dusky faces un-
der the turbans there were the white
countenances of the English officers
who had trained these varied tribes.
and who have stood with them In
the trenches in icy waters UP to their
waists against the enemy.
Not Too Old to Fight .

said, but replied, If you will not let
me fight in France / will go to
Afghanistan and fight there. / don't
mean to die in my bed. and / cannot
live much longer So they let me

Although all the cavalry is fighting
as infantry in the trenches, cavalry Of

the horses are in condition This IL

WHO WILL GAIN POSSESSION OF
THE EARTH2
TO THE EDITOR:

TO THE EDITOR
The great war which is now rag
ing in Europe, naturally raises the
question OF the future mastery OF that
norton of the world. Should there be
a decisive outcome to the struggle
the victorious power would be In po-
sitlon TO dictate terms TO Europe; and
from the mastery OF Europe 1t would
be but step 70 the position of world
supremacy.
There exists. however, an impassa-
bic barrier in the pathway to thls
coveted goal of power The word OF
the Almighty has declared that there
win never again be upon this earth
mccessor to imperial Rome. No con
aueror will ever arise who VIII be
able to bring the world to his feet No
nation will ever be able to bring all
the other nations into subiection.
This is plainly stated in the prophe.
cy of Daniel chapter two, where, in
explaining to the king of Babylon his
dream concerning the great image, the
prophet Daniel declared: And where
"a thou sawest the feet and toes part
of pottcr's clay and part OF iron, the
kingdom shall be divided; " And
whereas thou sawcst iron mixed with
miry clay. they shall mingle them
selves with the seed of men: but they
shall not clcDve one to another even
ms iron is not mixed with clay"
Since the decline and fall of the
iron monarchy of Rome there have
been repeated efforts to weld together
into one solid mass the broken frag
ments of that empire Clovis, Charlie
magne. Charles V, and Napoleon Bona
partc cssaycd to become rulers of the
world. but none of them could cement
/. the iron and clay of the prophetic i'm
age They were striving against the
hat of heaven. As one writer has fore.
. ibly expressed It; The earth recled
P under the fierce charges of these
. world-cmpirc grasping warriors, hut
. the world of the Lord stood fast, and
Europe remained divided
Nor has the effort to bind the ma
tions together into one by marital al
. liancos been any more successful. The
royal families have mtermarried very
extensively. but the ties thus formed
have accomplished nothing toward po
: litIcal union. King George of England
is cousin To the German Kaiser, and
the car of Russia is a relative also
Vet this relationship does nothing to
prevent war In no instance has there

SELECTMEN CONDEMN
OLD PERU TURNPIKE
Papers Filed with Town Clerks in
Peru and Winhall-Land Damages
Awarded Total S13,926

Papers have been fled with the Sc
lectmen of Winhall and Peru which
call for the laying out of a new high
way over the old Peru turnpike. When
this becomes an accomplished fact it
will mean the adjustment of the last
toll road in New England and one that
for some years has been the subject of
agitation in the state.
The road is owned by the Peru Turn
pike Co., corporation of which j. J.
Flynn of Burlington is the heaviest
stockholder. The land damages called
FOR in the papers total $13,926 of
which 1926 is in the town of Peru
and 81, $40 in the town of Winhall.
The turnpike is about five miles
long. about four miles being in Win
hall, and since the advent of automo-
biles it has yielded a good profit. The
legislature of 1912 authorized the
towns to buy or condemn it, and as
they were unable to agree upon price
condemnation proceedings were begun
