HOPE AN ETERNAL PRINCIPLE.

Hope the connecting link between the past and the fu turc H is prophet that it always dresses out everts in gaudy hue which sometimes fades and bIckens when the wheels of time bring to the consum nation
 Were for the earnest of the fuure this principle imIned in the breast man. he would have nothing for which to live nothing induce him to drag out miserable existence Never is hope wild and imaginative and we may sav decetfu in youth sOber true so stable, as in age.
 Although hope is often deusive yet, in the greatest misery the least ckerng ray of sunshine peering into the cay of the heart revves the dropping sou and excltes ,ction as when precious gem, under the suns beam flashes its radiance round the darkened cell and springs into multiplied existence
 Hope is an eternal principle Though in the last strait to hope when the spark of life departs flies heavenward ended upon the altar of eternity The seat of the Serbian government stays right theI moving these days.

SILENT HELPERS CIRCLE HONOR
ED RECENT CONVENTION
AT CONINGTON
AT CONVICTION.

One of the most successful and ne
joyable conventions in the history of
the order was that just held at Gov
ingtOn, by the Louisiana Kings
Daughters and Sons. April 1925.
The interest of the entire delega-
ton was centered in Mrs. Anthony d.
Evans of New York City, the Inter
national President of the order. who
was the hOnored guest of The con-
vention.
Mrs. Evans is woman of rare
personality and marvellous charm. She
is gifted to a remarkable degree, and
her wonderfully inspiring "heart-to-
heart talks" will never be forgotten
by those fortunate enough to be with
her by the Bogue Falaya.
Miss Sallie Pearson the leader of
our Algiers Circle" had a signal hon
or conferred upon her. She was elect
ed representative of the Silver Cross"
for the state of Louisiana and her
plea for this publication was beauti-
fully read by Miss Aldea Maher.
Mrs. Evans was so touched by Miss
Pearson's clever appeal that she ask
ed for the copy to take to New York
to be published Immediately so that
its influence be widespread.
Mrs. II. L. Hoyt, after an absence of
four years has returned and taken
up the work of the order again. She
brought the Silent Helpers" further
recognition by being elected a men,
Der of the executive board for the
state.
The delegates were royalty enter
tanned by the people of Covington who
did every thing in their power TO
make them wish the convention would
never close.
Those attending from Algiers were
Mesdames II. l.. Hoyt and II. j.
Thompson, Misses Sallie Pearson, AL
dea Maher, Maud Anderson, Marion
Thompson, Alice and Isabel O'Connor.
All returned filled with great en-
thusiasm and new inspiration for the
beautiful work, which makes all hi
mainly akin and brings mankind in
closer touch with the Creator.

pairs.
Mr.. c. B. Cowley, formerly Plant
Craftsman at the station, has been
promoted to the position of General

great deal of experience in the
preparation of plans and the handling

the horseman's vernacular, he is
breaking them to harness. On
Tuesday afternoon Mr.. Stewart took
one of the finest specimens and after
placing a stocking over the ostrich's
head he, with the assistance of two
of the attendants, managed with lit
tie trouble to harness the bird up to
two-seated wagon and it was quite
credit to Mr.. Stewart to see how
we'll, after the few lessons given to
the bird, the ostrich obeyed the bid
ding of his instructor.
Mr.. Stewart stated that these exhi-
billions will be given often at the
Farm and that other large birds are
soon to be broken to harness.
Three large incubators are now
busy Matching the new corners and
twelve of the big eggs are due to
bring forth little ostriches today.
Every consideration Is being
shown to visitors 20 this big Farm
where fifty of the finest specimens
are on exhibition.

COLUMBIA PROFESSOR
IN THICK OF THE WAR.
Henri Cesar OIInger Tells of Repairing
Telephone Wires-Escapes Shells.

Henri Cesar Ollinger, for several
years instructor in French at Column
bia university, now with one Of the
French armies in the north of France,
is on sick leave and is occupying part
Of his time in giving entertainments
for the soldiers. At Columbia he had
directed the production of several plays
in foreign languages. In letter to a
friend in New York Professor Ollinger
says:
''The doctor has sent me to the rear
for a bad sprain, general anemia and
infammatOry rheumatism. All / do
now is to mount guard in front of
building. During the afternoons l re-
hearse plays which are given for the
benefit of the wounded. You see my
modest dramatic talent helps me to
while away the time.
"After | had been in the trenches
and on the firing line a few months
was transferred, because of my knOWl-
edge of both French and English, to
the coonel's staff as special telephone
operator While lived at his quarters
and slept on pool table, thus enjoy
ing a little more comfort than my COM
rades, ran more risks.
''In the first place, the chateau tabout
three kilometers behind the outposts
and concealed in a thickly wooded spot
was regularly bombarded by the Ger
mans three times a day. Once an Obus
(shelD exploded III my room, killed
three and wounded eleven, but l didn't
get a scratch. Evidently my time had
not come yet.
1.-THE most dangerous part of my
work was the repairing Of telephone
wires which We're invariably cut in
different places by the shattered pieces
Of German shells as the obus exploded.
That part was Grewsome. for you go
out alone and the next man follows you
ten or fifteen minutes later to see if
anything has happened to you. Often,
when | thought l was protected by the
night, the Germans would fire q sky
rocket. which would light up the whole
countryside. Then came a real shower
of bullets and torn pieces of iron from
the German shrapnel.
Most of the towns TEEN with men
who are wounded for life, and l have
given up trying to figure out what part
of the population is thrown into a most
useless mourning. In Paris one hardly
mentions a word about ia guerre :"
The people are confident Of ultimate
success
Professor Ollinger left New York
Aug. last in order to enlist.

PEOPLE OF HOLLAND
FEEL PINCH OF HUNGER
With Prices of Staples Doubled, War
Bread Cards Are Issued.

Government bread and dread
cards" on June 1 became an institution
in Holland for the period of the war,
from which the people of the Neither
lands suffer much while only looking
on. The Dutch, however, are not com
PEELED to eat government bread nor to
take bread cards nor restrain their ap-
petites by order. The system is based
on the philanthropic principle, and its
introduction does not imply any fear Of
Il shortage Of flour or bread.
The idea of issuing bread cards arose
owing to the ever increasing number
Of people in Holland whose resources
have been reduced since war broke out
in Europe. The drafting into the army
Of thousands Ct the breadWinners in
preparation to defend Holland against
any attack on her neutrality and the
decreased opportunities for those who
remained 1T home Of finding employ
ment as i sequel to the lack Of raw ma
terials in various trades have rendered
the poor as d rule poorer, while those
persons possessed Of means have be
come WeaIthier, since they have been
able to take advantage of oppOrtuni-
ties Of making profit by laying out
their cash.
In order to allay some OF the disc0n-
tent Of the poor brought about by the
increased cost of their prime necessary,
the government recently requested the
municipalities all over the country to
ask the bakers in their various districts
to indicate whether they We're willing
to make and sell whole wheat bread at
approximately 2M American cents a
pound instead Of nearly 6 cents, the
usual store price for this moment.
Large numbers Of bakers agreed to
do SO under the impulse Of a proposal
by the government to supply them
with whole uHcrushed wheat through
the municipalities at price averaging
forms G.6W per kilogram, or about
2.20 American pounds.
The bread is sold at the low price of
212 American cents pound to families
which apply to the local authorities for
bread cards. No restrictions are placed
on the amount of money earned by a
family, which desires a bread card, but
only one pound of bread is furnished
daily for each person over two years
old, belonging to the family.
The extent of the poverty in the
towns may be judged from the fact
that many thousands of families have
applied for bread cards. In Amster-
dam, for example, nearly $4,000 family
bread cards have been issued; In Rot
terdam, 10000; in The Hague, 10000,
and in Leyden, $4,000.
