Psasan. Life In Palestine.

. The actual peasant life Of Palestine
has not greatly changed since Bible
times, and every village today boasts
Of its upper room, or guest chamber,
where the men meet and chat about
the local news. These guest chambers
have been in vogue since the days Of
the patriarchs. Farming, Of course, is
the principal occupation. The Pales-
tine farmer sows first and plows after
ward, as a rule. He scatters the seed
over the ground by hand and then
plows 1t in. The plows are very print
tive and are driven, us a rule, by oxen.
A farmers field is not marked of by
fence as we understand the term.
In the mountainous country lands are
Enclosed by loose stone walls, still call
ed by the ancient Hebrew name jedar.
and on the plains by thorn hedges.
When the open fields are owned in
dividually the boundary lines are in
dictated by deep burrows, in which at
intervals stones are laid as landmarks.
1t is therefore readily seen how easily
these boundaries could be changed by
an avaricious neighbor, undeterred by
the Mosaic warning. Cursed be he
that remoyeth his neighbours land

Troubles Of q Great Bank.

The Bank of England has had its
troubles, notwithstanding its great
financial strength. 1t has passed
through many perils. At various times
its notes have been at heavy dis
count, its credit has been assafled, 1t
has been threatened with impeachment
and 1t has been attacked by rioters.
The first run" on the bank occurred
in 1907. Other panics or runs occurred
in 1915. 1897 and 1925. In 1882 the
Duke of Wellington was unpopular.
and four men placarded the walls of
London with the words, ITO stop the
duke, so for gold" Nobody knew ex-

most $1,5OO.OOO. through the forgeries
Of one man and still more at another

New York, Feb. 14,-The Congress
.sional Union for Woman Suffrage is
celebrating the saints day with valen-
tines for politicians. The President
and members of Congress all received
valentines with more or less appro-
PIRATE verses to-day. The poets are
amateurs and did their work in u
hurry. They did not say,it is all good
poetry. but It expresses their feelings.
President Wilson's valentine is really
attractive. 1t shows a large heart, in
which are seen a bevy of charming
damsels, twelve of them, one for each
State where the women vote for Presi-
dent. Each has her apron or a basket
full of little hearts, which represent
votes. Beneath are the words:
"Wil YOU be our valentine if we
will be your valentine?"
A valentine which went to Edward
William Pou, Democratic representa-
tive, an arch enemy OF the women,
showed an obsequious gentleman pre-
senting a bouquet to a fair suffragis
who answers:
The rose is red. the violet blue,
But votes are better, Mr.. Pou.'
A lovely lady in black, who is water
ing a flower, goes to William Joseph
Cary, the Wisconsin Republican repre-
sentative, with a rhyme, which begins
Cary, Cary, quite contrary" and ends
"And your suffrage vote so slow"

High Gasoline Price
Caused by Shortage

Washington, Feb. 14.--The price of
gasoline is mounting, not because OF
any trade condition, such as the
crushing of competition by a trust
but through a natural condition-the
failure of crude oil from wells which
produce the greatest amount of Gaso-
line. This is explained in a long re-
port sent to the Senate in which con-
ditionS are reviewed
The report of Secretary Lane shows
that two years ago the use of gasoline
was increasing faster than the pro-
duction of crude oil of the quality
which yields gasoline Then suddenly
the great Cushing oil pool was dis
covered. That oil yields more gaso-
line than any other large pool in
America. It's production rose to half
of all the gasoline crude in the coun-
try for a period long enough to de-
press prices. Its influence was felt
as far away as the shale oils in Scot
land.
The Cushing supply. while it lasted,
gave relief to gasoline consumers and
prices which had gone up nearly as
high as they are at present, went down
until a few months ago. Then Cush-
ing began to give out.

LEWIS SPEAKS
AT THE FORUM
Makes Plea For Democratic
Government Without Race
Distinction

To an overflow audience consisting
of more than eight hundred colored
folk and many white citizens, William
III. Lewis. perhaps the foremost law
yer and speaker &C color, an eX-Assist-
ant Attorney General of the United
States. Harvard athlete who has
wrestled on the gridiron as captain of
Harvard's team against some of Har
risburg's most eminent Yale men. in
Guiding Vance c. Mccormick and Ross
w. Hickok, delivered one of the most
effective speeches of his career.
The subject of Mr.. Lewis address
which held his audience spellbound
for more than an hour was Race
and Democracy" He spoke of how
fallacious it was to speak of the col
ored citizenship of the country as a
problem"
He told in the choicest diction of
the Democracy of Life and Death, :"
of how in accordance with the "Decla-
ration of Independence we are born
equal and in the final summing are
equal in death"
Perhaps in no part of this able ad-
dress was more emphasis used than
when he said: "A classmate at Har-
ward told me | should not attend the
class prom because ! was of slave
parentage. Did he stop to consider
that as time counts he was only a few
years removed from the same element
of disqualification himself? Let me
give you facts AS late as the seven
teenth century English white men
were sold as endenture slaves in the
Carolinas. The German people felt
the chains of actual slavery until the
time of Frederick the Great. The
French people were subjects of slav-
cry up until the French Revolution.
So you see that practically every race
on the earth has at some time not far
distant, either. been slaves. White
men try forgetting and succeed. They
refuse to remember that they We're
at one time an enslaved people We
must do the same thing; forget slavery
and all its inconvenience and join in
the campaign of teaching our white
brethren what a real democracy
means and must do to justify its
name.
There is no place in this coun-
try for the hyphen of any race. We
are all foreigners and the only man
that rightly belongs to the soil is
the American Indian, and he Is
mostly under the soil. We are all
Americans and we should all stand
together on equal footing for better
or for worse.

tions. and Miss Pearl Robinson, piano

Turks in Mesopotamia
Reports from Athens credit the
Turkish government with the inten-
tion strongly to reinforce it's armies
in Mesopotamia. where the British on
the Tigris are struggling to push their
way to Kut- El-Amara and the relief
of their beleaguered little army there.
Turks in formidable numbers, it is
said, are being sent to the Mesopota-
mia war theater some from the Dar-
danelles and some from Thrace.
Recent Turkish official accounts
have indicated no important change in
the situation near Kut. but the lat
est one contained a report that in
surgent" probably irregular Arabs,
were active along the British lines of
communication.
May Link With British
Military observers in Petrograd and
elsewhere have pointed out that there
were possibilities of the Russian oper-
ations in the Caucasus and in Persia
being linked up eventually with those
of the British along the Tigris.
Whether this possibility or other rea-
sons have caused the increase in Turk
ish attention to the Mesopotamian field
has not developed.
