"To Keep Peace Only"

ATHENS, Oct 16, via London, oct IT. (delayed)-The British legation explains that the landing of marines at Athens and Pireaus was merely in- tended to reinforce the police It is generally thought, however, that this action was taken to prevent demon strations like those of this morning (Monday).
 Take Greek Capital
 ATHENS, Oct 17.-Marines from the ships of the Entente powers to the number of about a thousand, have been landed at Piraeus and have oc- cupied the railway station at Piraeus and several buildings in Athens. Inn mediately this became known the streets of Athens swarmed with Greeks frantically cheering King Con stantine and chanting the Greek na- tional hymn. Great crowds marched through the streets, thousands gath ering in the neighborhood of the post office square.
 Greeks Circle Invaders
 The war minister. General Dracos, ordered out Greek troops and marines to guard every approach to the square and in order to prevent any clash be- tween Greek civilians and the French, who occupied that section, establish ing a complete cordon about the French and taking all precautions to
 
 ble of starting strife.
 Outbreak Expected
 It is impossible to predict whether trouble could be prevented through out the night. The Greek government is fully alive to the fact that Greece fate hangs on the prevention of fur ther measures on the part of the French commander
 Earlier in the day review by King Constantine of the sailors belonging to the vessels of the Greek navy, which were taken possession of by the allies, was made the occasion for an immense royalist demonstration, crowds parading the streets hauling life-size portraits of the sovereign and wildly cheering for the monarch.
 Admiral DamianOs. minister of Mar inc. read an order of the day praising the loyalty of the sailors and compli- menting them on their conduct under most trying circumstances.
 After the ceremony the king assem- bled the officers about him and ad- dressed them personally. expressing pride that they had scorned offers of money and honOrs, and had remained faithful to their oath to their country He gave his word that he would stand by them to the end regardless of what their loyalty might entail

Many of the idle mines are owned by foreigners. The Sonora officials insisted on a survey of all properties the Wilkerson syndicate proposes to work.
 Terms of Deai.
 A guarantee that his packers in- tend to prosecute the venture was giv- en by Wilkerson who is said to have agreed to pay the state a percentage of the gross output of the mines. bear all expenses of reopening them and to surrender possession on demand of the owners.

Half an hour after the appointed

He cast from his shoulders the long

he is shown in his favorite pictures,
and with a stride of long steps lifting
each foot high from the ground, His
Majesty walked toward that end of the
formation where the band stood. His
standard bearers, who always walk
behind with his flag, had their work
cut out for them as he strobe ahead.
At first he paused just a moment,

reasonably dry, with great high steps.
After making the rounds of three
sides of the square the Emperor turn

there, and then began to pin orders
and medals on the breasts of the
chosen few.
1t was only at the conclusion of this
ceremony that correspondents stand

to see His Majesty at closerange, and
to get good look at his scanned and

walked to the doorway that leads by

A WONDERFUL CLOCK

The clock in Strasburg Cathedral
is one OF the most wonderful of its
kind. 1t was first made in 1874, and
went through various phases till it
was remade in 1912, and since that
date has been in perfect working or
der. This clock not only tells the time
of day. but the month, and day of the
month. and all the movable feast days
of the Catholic Church.
A statute of Apollo points out the
day of the month and the name of the
saint corresponding to that day. The
clock shows the rising and setting of
the sun. the diurnal motion of the
moon round the earth, its passage over
the meridian, the phases of the moon
and the eclipses of both sun and moon.
Allegorical figures in chariots repre-
senting the days of the week drive into
view, appearing each day in proper
order: On Sunday, Apollo; Monday,
Diana; Tuesday, Mars; Wednesday,
Jupiter; armed with a thunderbolt;
Thursday, Thor; Friday, Venus. and
Saturday, Saturn.
At a quarter past the hour a child
comes forward and strikes bell once
at half past youth strikes the bell
twice: at a quarter to the hour a
middle-aged man strikes it three
times; and just before the hour a
tottering old man strikes the bell four
times. Then a figure of death steps
forward and solemnly strikes the hour.
On the stroke of twelve. the twelve
Apostles appear, each one bowling as
he passes the figure of Christ, who
stands with hands uplifted in blessing,
and as the procession passes, a cock
which stands on the top of the clock at
the left side crows three times in a
very life-like manner and flaps it's
wings.

Estimates Have Been Upset by

the ForecaSters

According to reports to the De-
partment of Agriculture the weather
has hit the oats crop and the depart
ment bulletin says that the yield will
not be as large as expected. There
was a good growth of oats, but the
threshing has shown a much smaller
percentage of grain than was expect
ed.
The potato crop has suffered great
damage in some sections through the
cold wet Spring and the attacks by
the potato bugs and other pests.
Much less than an average crop is eX-
pected.
Reports from Montgomery county
state that the drought has been hard
on the corn, potatoes and pasture, but
that wheat and oats are yielding we'll.

NATURAL RELATIONS BETWEEN
BOYS AND GIRLS

In general, the best way to develop
wholesome relations between boys and
girls is to have them work together,
and learn to be good companions, and
to be at ease in one another's pres
ence. Many boys and girls do not
know how to act when they are to-
gether unless they are dancing. This
is due to the fact that they have not
developed chummy relations except
in the dance. I think. though, that
our modern schools. high-schools es-
pecially, in which there is wholesome
work going on all the time, in which
there are no places for lettering and
developing silly relations, in which
there are social organizations where
boys and girls come together, and
work together for one another's en-
tertainment-I think such schools are
doing a great deal 70 develop whole
some, natural relations. In some of
these schools, especially in a school
like the High school at Grand Rapids,
Michigan, special attention is given
to the social relations of boys and
girls. They are in musical organiza-
tions and laboratories together, and
they learn to be with one another
without self-consciousness or morbid
curiosity This is the essential
method of developing natural rela-
tions. The same principles could be
followed out in the home, only it
must be arranged so that when BOYS
and girls come together they will have
plenty to do to keep them interested
and occupied.
1t should be said further that boys
and girls ought to be separated a con-
siderable part of the time in the teens.
Girls ought to live a girls life, and
boys a boys life. 1t is a mistake to
have them together all the time.
There is sure to develop under this
condition certain amount of unnatu-
ralness.-M. V. O'Shea in the Octo-
ber Mothers Magazine.
