No Peace In Belgium.

St Louis Globe-Democrat: Little
credence can be given the rumor that
Germany and Belgium are about to
conclude a treaty OF peace. 1t is true
that Belgium is not party to- the
solemn pact of the entente allies
which forbids any member seeking
separate peace. But no such pact is
necessary. There is abundant evil
dence that the spirit Of Belgium is
not broken. The little kingdom is oc-
cupied by the Germans and it has
been paying huge indemnities under
compuIsion, but the Belgian refugees
are bitter as ever against the invader
and it is reasonable to assume that
Belgians still living at homo enter
tain the same feelings. although they
have no opportunity TO give them
free expression" A treaty forced
upon them would b repudiated II
conditions ever permitted its abroga-
ton. II the entente allies should
win, they would disregard such a
treaty. The applies to Serbia and
also to Montenegro.

days. was given In the Montrose Jour
nal, and Is copied from it:
In the early eighties, the Methodist
conference of S. e. Iowa decided to
organize a chautauqua. They did not
presume to call it by that dignified
name. but named their efforts camp
meetings. Their program consisted
of from ten days to two weeks Of
lectures, musical rendftions and SER
mons, all by talent widely known.

throughout the entire country. Then

elsewhere were drilled by very

oratorio, then these several bodies OF
singers were assembled and drilled
together and finally gave a grand
chorus. Everything done on the
ground had a decidedly religious trend
and it was the purpose to teach reIig-
