DEAD" SON Is LIVING HERO
Through Magazine Picture Mother Lo-
Gates Boy She Parted From
Twenty Years Ago.

Austin, Tex.=Mrs. NJ. Hemsley, for
merly of New Zealand, who is making
her temporary home in Austin, was
looking through magazine the other
day when she came across a picture
showing an award for bravery and
honor being made to an Amaze hero
somewhere in the war zone of the
British army. She Immediately recog-
nized the hero as being her son, whom
she has not heard of for nearly twenty
years. The photograph gave his name
as Vernon Edmund Challis of the New
Zealand field artillery, which is the
name that was given her son by the
family that adopted him when he was
a mere infant.
Mrs. Hemsley left her baby with
friends in New Zealand nearly twenty
years ago and came to America in
search of health. She was later mott
fled that the child was dead and she
mourned him as such until the maya
zine picture came to her attention.
Mrs. Hemsley has communicated with

The Boston light was the first built
in America and is the most important
lighthouse in the North Atlantic The
first light was 'kindled" September IA
ZIG, by George Worthylake. who with
his wife and daughter was drowned
shortly after the light was put into
operation. In 1920 the first lighthouse
was burned and rebuilt. and again in
1880 it was burned and rebuilt The
lighthouse was destroyed by the Brit
ish toward the close of the Revolu-
tionary war. In 1850 the present light
house was built and a few years later
1t came under the jurisdiction of the
federal government. The two hun
dreth anniversary of the founding of
the light was recently observed.

PROSPERS ON STOLEN MONEY
Wealthy Kansas Farmer Restores Cash
With Interest After 81
Years.

Kantner, Pa.-William Speicher of
this place served as go-between in an
unusual transaction recently by which
an aged resident of StoyestoWn re-
covered $500 with interest for 81 years
from a wealthy Kansas farmer who
was troubled by guilty conscience.
1t appears that 81 years ago the aged
loser was on his way to pay 500 on
small home he had purchased. He
arrived at his destination but tho
money was gone. He became Ill and
disheartened, and never secured Il
home of his own.
On the day the money was lost the
Kansas farmer, then poor young
man, was walking on the railroad. He
found the wallet after it slipped from
the mans pocket and went to Kan
sas. There he secured homestead,
prospered and finally decided that he
must restore the $500 and interest to
the man he had wronged. The old
man was found through Mr.. Speicher,
and from almost destitute circum-
stances at the age of 70 years,
he has been placed in compare
alive comfort

What a Coy Can Do.

A boy asked his father what he
could do for his country in the event
of war. This is What his father told
him:
boy can be just as good citizen
and patriot as his father. 1t is nor
age, not voting power, not the ability
to carry arms alone that are service
able to ones country. First, the boy
can see TO his health. That is of high
value to his country. Second he can
see to his education. Your country
gives it TO you, because an educated
man is many times as valuable To If
as an ignorant man. When you studv
you fight for your country. Third. Won
can hold true Your morals and ideals
Perhaps that is Tie highest service of
all.

FORDS FLOOD ON
INSPECTION TRIP
General Pershing and Staff Have
Thrilling Experience in
Mexico.
COMMANDER LEADS The WAY
Make Round by Motor, on Foot and
In Saddle-Four Times Forced TO
Ford and Swim Swollen
Santa Maria.

Headquarters, American Punitive
Expedition, Mexico.-Raging rivers
and Hooded lowlands did not halt the
progress of General Pershing and his
STAFF on their recent tour of inspec-
ton of the expeditionary force In Mex
leo.
BY motor, on foot and in the saddle
forced four times to ford and swim
the swollen Santa Maria river-they
reached the southernmost point of the
expedition-El Valle-and returnel in
good time to the starting point of
Colonia Dublan.
So far approximately 5000 troops
have been reviewed and inspected,
with their animals, supplies and equip
ment.
The first sign of bad road eendi=
lions on the trip just ended, came
when San Joaquin was reached and
dispatches from the south told of
the rapidly rising Santa Maria river.
1t was the news that the bridge con
structed by army engineers at Ell Vale
had been washed out The Santa
Maria flood roared between the inspee-
ton staff and Las Galeras, the next
point to be inspected.
Haul Machines Out of Mire
General Pershing ordered the party
to proceed. The five touring cars-the
first carrying the American flag and
the commanding generals star-crest-
ed red pennant-followed by two sup
ply cars, went forward. AT Carboi-

Demands Shorter Way.


The Santa Maria was forded again
that afternoon. General Pershing de
cided to try II short cut back to the
waiting automobiles. He called the
scout. Take us by shorter route"
he ordered.
There's shorter trail" said the
guide. But it's the worst kind of
travelling. There's a lot of swamps,
and it's dangerous footing for horse"
IF its shorter. show it TO us"
The guide led on. His wiry Mexican
pony twisted and squirmed to find its
way. General Pershing's mount was
only length behind him. At a forced
pace, the ride back to the ears went
on. The staff and the mounted es-
cort serpentined behind through a
maze of mesquite, through morass
after morass, and pounded across al
kali-dusted flats.
The night camp was made at tiny
spring The next day the march to
FL Vale was resumed. Once more the
bank of the Santa Maria was reached.
As the party rode up, its members
could see the wreck of the engineers
bridge. \ captain of engineers, ably
assisted by sergeant whose all too
fluent English was garnished with a
few simpler Spanish oaths, was lead
ing gang of Mexicans waist-deep in
the water at the work of repairing.
Again mounts were waiting and
again the general led his party across
the flood. Some days before the field tel
egraph had informed the camp com
mander to have his troops ready for
review on Tuesday morning at nine
o'clock.
And on Tuesday morning at nine
o'clock to the minute, General Per-
shing aud his staff rode on the field
near FL Vale, where infantry. artil-
lery and cavalry waited in a splendid
assemblage.

~ AALBEk is many things besides
K being q tourist center. For
mass, the Egyptian temples
lead. For intricacy of detail the
indian gopurams surpass. For delicacy
of design, the Tai Mahal will long hold
the palm. But the ruins at Baalbek
are both impressive and magnificent,
inspiring, satisfying. The pyramid of
Cheops is child's play compared with
the many-ton entabature which sur
mounts the airy columns of the Temple
of the Sun. A house can be moved up
Il hill, but by what machinery did the
builders of Baalbek poise such mass
at such a height? asks Maynard Owen
Williams in the Christian Herald.
Baalbek is situated ut the base of
the Jebel esh Sherki or Eastern noun
tain, better known to US as the Anti
Lebanon, whose SHOWS sometimes ex-
tend down to the town, itself 1000 feet
above the sea. Numerous springs are
found here, and graceful poplars and
green vegetation stand out in pleasing
contrast with the level brown or pur-
plish tone of the plain.
Fifteen miles away the background
of the picture stretches from 5000
foot Sannin in the south to Dahr III
Khadib, whose blunt summit is nearly
II 900 eeet above the sea.
In this charming spot, where nature
must have impressed man with her
grandeur and majesty, he WED with her
in achieving the titanic. AS one stands
beside one of the fallen pillars, whose
round base towers high above his head,
it seems as though the ambitious build
ers had succeeded. The high contain
ing walls shut in the view TO center it
on this mighty pile. But as one rides
across the Bika on his way to the
cedars of Lebanon and looks back on
the ruins, the colossal group becomes
but tiny gem on natures bosom.
Cain Built First Temple.
Cain is said to have built the first
temple at Baalbek, using the mastodon
as his work-animal for transporting
stone. That makes Baalbek rather old.
BY the early Phenician period Baalbek
had become famous as the center of
Baal worship. Since then, the Seleu
eide, the Romans, the Byzantines and
the Saracens have ruled there. There
is nothing in the ruins that tells the
average tourist the history of these
mighty structures, but Baedekers are
handy if not cheap, and Il Baedeker
and Bible are the prime necessities
of Levantine travel.
Picture that famous church of Paris,
the Madeleine, standing at n height of
80 feet above level plain, surrounded
by 81 columns nearly eight feet in
diameter, whose bases alone are taller
than II man, and you have some
idea of the temple to Helios
which gave Heliopolis its name.
Today only six of the mighty col
umns remain erect, like proud Sell
tines guarding their fallen brothers.
Each column is made up of three
pieces, each 30 feet in height, making
up with the cornice total height of
so feet. They are of a tawny shade,
blushing with a brighter tint when the
slanting light of sunrise or sunset falls
across their stately height.
