Mirko, called "The Sword of Monte negro" caught the Turks in a trap on the plain of Grahavo. Here the flow CT of the Turkish Imperial guard was slain, while the mountain mems loss was inconsiderable.
 Present Ruler Old Warrior.
 The present ruler, Nicholas. is a son of redoubta ble Mirko and follow ed Danilo on the throne in 1860. He has ruled 55 years and is now "A years old.
 The boy prince Nicholas, and his giant father, Mirko. were assailed again by Omar soon after the access sion. Outnumbered often 20 to one, Cthe Montenegrins fought no less than 60 battles against the whole might of the Turkish empire. The Montene- grins could not be conquered, but they finally were so badly in need of food that they signed peace in which they conceded some unimport- ant points.
 There is no policy of watchful wait ing in Montenegro. She always strikes early and hard. In 1876 Serbia, fight ing Turkey, was expecting Russia to come to her assistance. But before the czar moved, Prince Nicholas en- tered the fray with 20,C00 men and I smashed Moukter Pasha at Vuchidol; while his cousin, Bozo Petrovich, de- feated another Turkish force and took Medun. .''sis' Then he enticed Sulieman Pasha to pursue him up the valley of the Zota with a great army and even as the Turk wired Constantinople to appoint f. the first Turkish governor, fell upon him, destroyed half his force and soon captured Niksich, Antiyari and Dulcigno. .,.sl By the treaty of Berlin, at the close of the war, Montenegro doubled hel territory, got window on the Adri- atic and increased her population from 196.000 to 280,000.
 In the first Balkan war of 1912, too Nicholas boldly struck at the Turks before any of his allies had moved He laid siege to Scutari and contin' ued his attack even when the grea1 powers established a blockade of his coast to force him to give it up. Seu 1 tari fell to his hands, but he yielded 1t to the new state of Albania, taking in exchange the Sanjak of Novi Bazar l which had separated him from Serbia

 When Austria sent her harsh ulti | matum to Serbia in July, 1914. another note was sent to King Nicholas thanking him for his friendship ant making it plain that in case of wal | between Austria and Serbia. the for mer would be willing to cede. to Mon tenegro the district of Scutari and { small portion of Herzegovina as th' price of neutrality. .'a q
 The ultimatum to Serbia on it's re i| ceipt was at once forwarded to Mon tenegro by the Serbians, who wanted
 to know what King Nicholas though about it. His reply was: Preserv' the honor of your country and corn on us.". s When Austria had attacked Serbia

MEN OF MILLIONS GATHER TOGETHER
 ANNUAL REUNION
Twenty nine Who Met in Steel Mills Now Kings of
 Steel-Thrift Did It.

New York, Jan. 21--Twenty-nine men, who a score of years ago in overalls ate from their dinner pailS in the steel mills of Pittsburgh. had dinner together tonight in this city. They were the men whom Andrew Carnegie delights in calling bis "boys."
 The seven-m -million-dollar home of Charles M. Schwab took the place of the roaring, changing scenes of in- Gustry where they first met. One of New York's famous caterers pro- vided the dinner. Musicians and singers of world renown were the en- tertainers The guests themselves, m the magic passage of the years. did not seem to have ever struggled in the heat of the pudding plant or the roaring mill. They are now men foremost in the world of steel, who reckon their earthly possessions in the millions.
 This was the fourteenth annual re- union, and those present were Charles M. Schwab, Charles w. Bak- CT. w. R. Balsinger, w. w. Blackburn, II. F. Pope, Albert C. Case. William E. Corey William B. Dixon. Thomas Morrison. w. c. McCausland, John Nc Leod, Gibson Parker, James Daly, Joseph E.. Schwab, A. R. Peacock. H. E. Tenner, E. H. Utley, Charles |. Taylor, Wm. l.. Abbott, D. J. Kerr, D. M.

ly character. He consigned the active government to his nephew. Vassili A Turkish army of 25,O0o invaded Montenegro and Vassili defeated them so decisively that not another Turk passed the border until after his death. Shortly after Vassili died,; a man arrived in the country who call ed himself Czar Peter III. of Russia, who was thought to have been mur- dered five years before.
 Probably this man was an imposter, but he was certainly remarkable leader. Under him the Montenegrins were triumphant even when the Turks assailed them on three sides and the Venetians from the rear. Then "Peter" was treacherously strangled by servant of the pasha of Scutari. The Turks were now confident that the Montenegrins were without lead CT and invaded in fierce. But the saintly aged Sava put himself at the head of his subjects and proved him. self a true Petrovich. by hurting the Crescent from the land.
 Napoleon Failed to Conquer. l Sava's nephew, Peter l., who suc- ceeded him, got the name ''the heads man of Montenegro" from his many victories over the Turks. Not only did he decorate grim Turks Tow CT" at Cettinje with thousands of heads of his foes after the pleasant Montenegrin custom, but he success fully defied the might of the great Napoleon. Napoleon vowed he would change the name of the land to Monte Rosso,e or the Red mountain, but his armies met the fate of the Turks. < Tn 1920 the Turkish pasha of Bosnia made great attempt to Overwhelm Montenegro and was so thoroughly whipped that he committed suicide | In 1856 Peters nephew, Peter IT..
 withstood another invasion of the Turks and added to his grisly col lection at Turks Tower" This mon- arch was no less than six feet eight 1 inches in height. He introduced representative government and wrote poetry.
 His nephew, Danilo IT,. was in love and when he came to the throne he determined to separate the ecclesistl- cal duties of the prince from his ex- ecutive governmental duties. He mar ried the woman of his choice. but was
 never popular and died by the hand of an assassin after ruling nine years In those nine years, however, he

Mary Pickford
Autographs For

Last Friday, February 4, Mr.. Car
ney took twelve large photographs to
the home of Mary Pickford on River
side drive and had them autographed
by the supreme star of filmdom. In
addition to her signature Miss Pick
ford added her kindest wishes when
Mr.. Carney told her that ten Of the
photos would be used as awards to
the ten most popular ladies patroniz-
ing the Grantwood movies. So a
contest will be started as soon as
plans are completed, to find out who
the most popular ladies are. The
plan will probably be to give each
patron slip on entering the hall to
be filled out with the name and ad-
dress of the lady he or she wishes
to vote for. No plan has been def
initely settled upon, however, but it
is expected that by the end of next
week arrangements for the contest
will have been completed.

either to one collector or to the other
for these benefits received, but not
to both-that being double taxation.
Brownie both?
Strong-Yes, to the city govern
ment and to the dealer in lots as well.
Brown-How so?
Strong-Mrs. Strong points out
that the purchase price of $4,000 for
the lot, subject to the tax of $40 per
annum is equivalent to $140 a year,
and that as this represents in their
entirety the benefits the community
and the city government have to Of
fer so far as the particular lot in
question is concerned.
Brown admit that.
Strong-She will not pay a second
time on the house.
Brown never heard of such a
thing! Wait, isn't that single tax ?
Strong-She says we have nc
money to throw away-we cannot
support the landdealer and the gov
eminent too.
Brown-But this strikes me as alb
surd-everybody does it.
Strong-From what my wife gath
cred from the lectures at her club it
appears that each and every lot
really reflects, as it were, in its price
the sum of the advantages which are
gathered upon it-like the convergine
rays of the sun through convex

debtor, to the city government in q
sum which can be ascertained anG

Brown-Quite SO.
Strong-What am / going to get
from the municipality for this addi-
tional sum?
Brown-All the advantages we
have been considering.
Strong-Excuse me. Mrs. Strong
says that all these prospective and
potential advantages are already paid
for in the price of the lot, plus the
city's small tax on the land value.
The $162, the tax on the house, is a
fine, for which no equivalent is given.
My taxes would thus be more than
doubled. Instead of paying $40, !
should be paying that sum plus $162.
Add to this the natural yearly de-
probation which will inevitably pur-
sue my building, and the yearly sum
/ must expend for repairs. Alto
gether l fear the burden is too great
for me.
Brown-Well, my friend, you've
got to live somewhere. How can you
escape this burden?
Strong-Let me ask my little boy
Tor you. Son, tell the gentleman
what the fellows in the Boy Scouts
are saying?
Little Johnny-They say that one
good pioneer like Boone is worth all

my deal with you. No ill-feeling, I
nope?

A Communication
To the Editor of "The Palisadian,"
Dear Sir.

To the Editor of "The Palisadian,"
Dear Sir:
Will you be so kind as to give the
following lines space in your next
edition, I think it is necessary tc
show the people the necessity OF
caring for their children's teeth.
CAT the last meeting of the Board
of Education l advocated the inspec-
ton, by competent dentist, of the
pupils teeth, together with treatment
of those children, whose parents are
unable or unwilling to provide same
In an editorial the Borough News
takes exception to this proposal, adj
vancing the argument GU, that it
is long step in the direction of
socialism.
It has been said that the State
shall only do those things that the
individual can not do, ought not dc
or will not do.
No doubt all parents ought to look
out for their children, but we have a
large foreign element whose eco
nomic condition is such, that a visit
to the dentist is an un-thought of
luxury, further more the parents if
they could afford to pay for treat
ment, would not do so as they do not
realize it's practical Importance.
These conditions make it absolutely
necessary for the Board of Education
to do the work which the parents can
not and will not do. Any sound sys-
tenn of education must give students
that knowledge which is necessary
to useful citizenship, it must equip
them for the battle of life. Can any
system do this, which devotes all OF
its time and energy to the mind and
overlooks the body? Are the teach
ings of modern sanitation and hygiene
a fad of fancy? Is it not fact that
people depend upon their mental and
physical development?
l will close with a quotation from
the pen of the Editor of the Borough
News:
"The end and aim of education, as
we understand, it, is that the child
should be taught and trained so that
it will be prepared to take the place
in the world for which it is fitted and
to be self-supporting and self
sustaining"
Respectfully
