THE GHOST COMES BACK.

On Thursday, December the twelfth
of last year newspaper offices were
greeted with flash" the subse-
quent bulletin of which read: Ger
many and her allies propose peace"
Immediately there was turmoil. The
who were making fortunes out of
war babies saw their dreams of con-
quest vanish, and the war seemed at
an end.
We are how within the pale Of an
other December, and reports from
Germany and her ally, Austria, show
that the trend is toward another
alarm. The anniversary of the first
peace scare" might bring forth
repetition. And yet those who are in
close touch with the situation can see
no hope of an early peace, especially
a peace founded on substantial basis,
a peace that will be no mean ar
mistice but a permanent peace.
Prime Minister Lloyd George who
always has his ear to the ground, sets
forth the object Of the Entente Allies
in this fashion, wherefrorn 1t can be
seen the Potsdam gang will have to
make a supreme struggle to emerge
from the death grip now enveloping
the military masters Of Germany.
Says Lloyd George:-
'It is not a question of territorial
adjustment and indemnities. but pre-
eminently a question of the destruction
Of a false ideal, which has inundated
and enslaved Europe, or would have
done SO, had 1t been triumphant. It is
I an ideal where force and brutality
! reign supreme as against the ideal of
the world peopled by free demo-
| cracies and united in an honorable
league Of peace for fifty years-that is
the Ideal enshrined at Potsdam, where
| they have been plotting and schem-
That has been their dream and our
nightmare. There will be no peace
no liberty, until that shrine is shat
tered and it's priesthood dispersed and
discredited forever"
It is the consensus Of opinion among
all statesmen in the democracies of the
world that there can be no peace with
Germany until militarism is crushed
until the Hohenzollerns are stripped
somewhat of their power, until the
avaricious dictators of that nation are
beaten into submission. The peace Of
the world was destroyed in 1914 fol
a purpose. That purpose was the con.
quest of Europe by German arms
After forty years military preparation

dinner in Paris. The dinner was nevel

who have scorned each other or injur. ed friend or brother, come gather here. B And then there's that grand old hymn "Adeste Fideles," sung in every church in this land and in others, at this Christmas season:
 Oh, come, all ye faithful, Joyful and triumphant! Come ge, oh, come ye to Bethlehem Christmas would not be Christmas, of course, If the waits were to neg lect one other of the most beautiful of old carols:

What the
 Christmas
 Waits " Sing

CANTA CLAUS being about to de- o sert the city streets for his annual
 reindeer ride over the roofs, the waits" prepare to sing their centuries old carols.
 In several American cities has been revived the beautiful old custom of the ''waits" going about from house to house singing the familiar old songs. Light the Christmas candles in your window If you want them to stop be- fore your home!
 God rest you merry, gentlemen; lei
 nothing you diSmGy- they will surely sing that, perhaps the best known of all old English carols. And this too:
 Hdrki The herald angels sing,
 Glory to the ne1oborn king. And of course, 70 Little Town of Bethlehem"
 Perhaps, too, they will sing what is said to be the earliest known Christ mas carol, dating from the Anglo-Nor- man days of the thirteenth century, which begins:
 Lordlings, listen to our lay-
 We hate come from far dicdy
 To seek Christmas.
 In this mdnSion tCe are told
 He his yearly feaStS doth hold;
 'Tis todayi
 May joy come from God dbove
 To all those iCho Christmas loue. This carol ends with the toast of those days:
 Here, then, bid you all wassail, cursed be he who will not say drink hail." Wassail' meaning your health and "drinkhail' being the usual and courteous acknowledgement.
 One of the best known of all the old carols, although not one of the oldest, was written by Nahum Tate in 1703 and is called the "Song of the Angels" It begins:
 While shepherds todtched their focks
 by night,
 All seated on the ground, The angel of the Lord came dot0n And glory Shone around.
 Many are the carols in which Brit aims ancient holly figures. "Then drink to the holly berry" pledges one writer of songs, while another in "Un- der the Holy Rough" summons "All ye

Artificial Limbs Not New.

Artificial limbs with movable joints were made by the famous Ambroise Pare-1517 to 159O-the celebrated French surgeon known as "The Fath- CT of French Surgery" He was surgeon to Henry the Second-1552-and also to Francis the Second, Charles the Ninth and Henry the Third. Later on Father Sebastian, Carmelite monk, was renowned for the manufacture of movable arms and hands. About the middle of the seventeenth century Falcinelli, Florentine surgeon, mem tions artificial eyes of gold, silver and crystal painted in different colors he also describes gold and silver ears which were either tied to the head with strings or else sewn on the skin of the scalp by the aid of gold and sil yer wire. Silver noses, too. are spok. en of as having been in use for a long time.

THRILLING FILM
 PICTURES VERDUN

Think of an automobile ride just before sundown, through the ruined city of Verdun on the French front, where the hardest fought defense i'll the history of war was won by the French army.
 That is exactly what is done by France,"- marvellous photographic achievement of Mery La Voy, young American knight of motion picture camera, who has just returned from the fighting front in France and to be shown at the Best theatre today and tomorrow.
 The center of the war for seven months was Verdun. There the Ger man crown prince concentrated his enormous weight of heavy guns and there he vainly threw his highly trained legions into battle.
 Verdun is but a remnant. yet the intrepid French are already rebuild ing the place. MT. La Voy's camera caught most of the atmosphere and much of the detail as he wended his way through wrecked streets on a motor lorrie. Those who go to see "Heroic France" will ride with MT. La Voy through the shell-swept sereets of Verdun and aside from that privi- lege, they will witness most extra ordinary eight-reel collection of war pictures.
 These pictures include German surrender under fire in the first line trenches; big British and German guns firing; the red cross Hospitals showing American nurses caring for the wounded; life portraits of British ! and French war leaders; flight over the French encampments in a ma. chine speeding at more than 10O miles. an hour; American war heroes who have distinguished themselves by their bravery in the air; closeups 1 of the American aviators Mcdonnell and Rockwell who died fighting thou sands of feet above the battlefields of heroic France; Ferman prisoners being brought in by the French and put to work to harvest the grain that is used to feed the fighting men o1 1 the Allies.

Az to the Iron Aue.

The best informed sources give the period from 200O to 250O B. c. as mark. ing the transition from bronze to iron Prof. J. B. Wilson, in an article in the Princeton Theological Review, presents pretty nearly all of the available evl. dence on the subject. The ''iron age' seems to have begun earliest in Asia Minor, where iron was used for vari. ous purposes as early as 2500 B. C. The people of Nippur used iron knives and arrowheads as early as 200 B. c. and iron Is claimed to have been in use in Babylon Ave centuries.
