New Facts About Moses.

Bible questions were put to 60
pupils in the Sedgwick county rural
schools, says Kansas City CORE
spondent of the New York Sun. De-
scribing the funeral of Moses one boy
wrote:
st was on a still night when the
rush of a train broke the silence and
at daybreak he was buried at the foot
of mountain and let the dirt roll
down on him."
Two of the answers to a Prodigal
Son question were:
1.-The Prodigal Son went away from
home and after a while he came back
and said, Father thou art a sinner"
"While he was yet a great way Off
his father came to meet him and fell
on his dirty neck and kissed him."

sons Of Saturnin, who loved their
father passionately, vowed that they

inal to punishment If they had to de.
vote their lives to the task. The two
older sons sought for clews every.
where, and all in vain. The whole
business was in impenetrable mystery.
The younger son said little, but sat
brooding and thinking in quiet places.
At last he went to his two brothers
and said: IF we would know the
truth we must force it from Father
Chaubard! He knows! He knew when
he was at our feast why father did not
return!"
The older brothers were shocked
the younger brother was insistent,
The latter had force of character, and
soon brought his brothers to his way
of thinking. They consulted together
long time, and decided upon a plant
for learning the truth.
Louis and Thomas went to the
priests house, and told him that
Madame Mirailhe was in great dis.
tress, and begged his presence. The
cure, always ready to help others,
agreed to go at once, although the
night was wild and wet. He accom-.
panied them to the Siadoux home.

they, and the priest, who seemed dazed
with trouble, followed them. There
the younger son was standing by
huge caldron of boiling oil. He locked
the door after the others entered.
He pointed significantly to the cal
dron. The unfortunate priest trembled

THE CURE AND THE cALDRoN.

To the tired traveller the village Of
Croix-Daraude, three miles from Tou-
louise, is much like other drowsy
French villages; but if he remains
there few hours he will hear a story
that will awaken his interest in the
place. For Croix-Daraude was the the
ater of a crime that has been talked
about in the vicinity for more than
two hundred years.
In the year 100 Saturnin Siadoux
was prosperous oil manufacturer
there. He had his own establishment,
was out Of debt, and was happy and
comfortable in his family relations.
He was sixty years old, a widower,
and the father of three sons and two
daughters. He had sister, the widow
husband had left her we'll provided
for, although his affairs were badly
tangled when he died in an unexpected
and extemporaneous manner. She had
a neighbor named Cantegrel, who was
of the greatest assistance in straight
ening out her financial affairs. Can
tegrel was a butcher, but he was well
educated and had the acumen of a
lawyer, and he didn't charge the widow
a red sou for his aid. 1t is not sur
prising, therefore, that Madame Mi
railhe was grateful.
Now, this Madam Mirailhe had told
her brother, Saturnin, in so many
words that she would not marry again.
and that when she died her money and
property would go to his children
Saturnin was not greedy or covetous,
but he WAS disturbed when he heard

Short Term Enlistments
In United States Army

Action by congress providing for
short term enlistments would be Of
great service to the United States army
in obtaining volunteers to handle motor
equipment says President Walter Da.i
wilson, of the Harley Davidson Motor
company, which has been cooperating
closely with the war department in the
big task of training soldiers to handle
motorcycles in Mexico. GIN my opinion
it is impossible to train inexperienced
soldiers to make motorcycle riders of
them in the required time and the same
thing is true of augmenting the number
of men required for army motor trucks
and aeroplanes.
eff congress would make it possible
for the army to receive enlistments for
shorter periods than the three years now
required, a call for motorcycle volun-
teers would not only quickly supply t.
companies now contemplated but would
bring forth regiments of experienced
men. AS the law now stands the army
is forced to attack the problem tho
wrong end to. Men who have had ex-
perienee with motors are needed quick
ly. The way to get them is to enlist
them to serve during the period Of the
Mexican expedition.
'Three years is too long a time of
enlistment for anyone who does not in
tend to remain permanently in the
army. If the period of enlistment were
six months, or even a year, it would
brine good results.
Brig. Gen. J. j. Pershing. in charge
of the American advance in Mexico.
Brig. Gen. George Bell, Jr., in charge
of the troops in and around El Paso
and all the other Officers on the Mexi-
can job viii testify to the same thing.
There is great need for men with motor
eXperience and it is big task to train
soldiers to handle motorcycles and
trucks in army service. Of course we de-
sire to do everything possible to assist
the army in training soldiers to use
motorcycles efficiently but I am firm.
ly of the belief that the best way is for
| congress to authorize the army to re.
cruit civilians with special training and
obtain them quickly through the attrac-
tiOn of short enlistment with promise
of immediate service in the work OF

Noyes' Sherwood" the play which
the junior class of Willamette univer-
sity will present at the Grand theatre,
is one of supreme interest. The events
center around the tales of Robin Hood,
which are familiar to every one. The
beauty of its romantic setting in the
forest of Sherwood, the famous retreat
of Robin Hood, gives the play the fas-
einating atmosphere Characteristic of
the age of chivalry The forest is peo-
pied with true knights, ladies' and beau
tiful fairies who fill it with play and
gladness. 1t is a play which has the
power not. only to please and interest
but to exalt and lift one beyond him
self into the land Of beautiful thought
and. the realm of fantasy.
There are many beautiful passages
in the play which reveal the dept
of meaning and the inner beauty Of
its structure. Titania, Queen of the
Fairies, in the first act, states the
condition which will open the gates
of fairyland, "only love and love- s
kind sacrifice can open them. For
when a moral hurts himself to help
another, then he thrusts the gates
wide open between his world and
ours.V
