is portrayed in the stories OF the girl
who hurled the English invader from
his place OF power.
When she was asked to wear {
suit Of armor she consented simply
and was made as happy as only ar
unspoiled child could be by the. spec
tacle Of her appearance in a gart
like that once worn by the famous
Maid herself.
Isn't 1t wonderful" she cried, and
took the sword. For the moment Il
was easy to believe that reincarna
tion was proved.
'Tf only could lead France to
day."
But Khyva st. Adams is not child
enough really to hope for such q
thing. She knows that she is in
new country. A few friends with q
lively interest in her welfare are do
termined to give her the best oppor
tunity possible. Yet they will NOT
dismiss her dreams of the brave
Joan, nor that of some day doing
some great deed, though 1t be OF q
very different sort.

The very air itself seems to hold
a charm. 1t takes charm to make a
man forget grim war while looking
1t In the face, as he gives his soul
TO the contemplation Of the grandeur
OF Nature. Nature has her throne in
the Vosges. 1t is both throne of the
grand and a cradle for the humble.
1t was here also in 1411 that Joan
OF Arc found her cradle. 1t was
along these same slopes where the
steel ring Of the Kaiser's machine
like forces are at grips with the
French gallants that the peasant
maid tended in solitude the sheep Of
her father. Here she cared for the
lambs and drew from the same mys-
tic surroundings that today entrance
the booted correspondent and tho
belted warrior the higher thoughts
which led her to compel the Dauphin
OF France to accept the service of
military genius that was past all
comprehension.
The Triumphs Of Joan.
No pedagosic skill had taught the
young woman OF the heights to read.
She knew nothing OF the meaning of
written words. The simple Pater
Noster. the Ave Maria and the Credo

Marin. the famous authority on
martial lore. accords to the peasant
girl who led 5000 troops to the relief
OF Orleans the highest skill in troop
leadership.
So little Khyva st. Adams was born
and reared in the same surroundings.
Whatever property may belong to
the mystic atmosphere of the
Vosges still fingers about the
place where the great maid
~ and the present maiden first
~ saw the light.
The peasants still talk and
\ think of the girl who left her
fiocks to wear the armor OF
a King. They believe with
the simple faith of the land that
the miracle OF a defender for France
will be performed in the present
great struggle when the soil they
love is trembling under the roar of
thousands of hostile guns.
And, full OF the folk lore and the
hypnotism of the native land, Khyva
st. Adams believes that to her has
come the spirit Of the immortal girl
of Orleans. and she would gladly fol.
low in her footsteps. even with the
fagots and the stake at the end of the
