THE PHARAOHS OF THE
EXODUS.

The prevailing opinion held by
Biblical scholars in that Rameses II,
called Sesostris by the Greeks, is
referred to in the Biblical passage
which tells of "a Pharaoh who "did
not know Joseph" and the great con-
structive achievements of the Egyp-
ton Disraeli Rameses is said to
have ruled sixty years, beginning
from 1880 B. c. E. He was the
third ruler of the nineteenth Pha-
raonic dynasty, the son of Seti |, sue
ceeding his father at an early age.
Rameses' name has come down in
history as that Of one of the greatest
building monarchs ever known. It is
believed that in his reign the treas
urecities, Pithom and Rameses were
completed and that they were built
of Jewish blood and effort Ram
eses is therefore referred to, from the
Jewish and Biblical point of view,
as "the Pharaoh of the Oppression"
his son, Merneptah, being regarded
as "the Pharaoh of the Exodus"

tain the first mention of the Jewish

people, then living in a disorganized
and disconnected way in Goshen, the
northeastern portion of Egypt, adj
Joining the Sinaitic peninsula.
An indication of the character Of
the rulers of these days is seen in
the story of Queen Taasrit, the
daughter of Siptah, son of Mernep-
tab. Siptah was weak-minded, low
ing luxury and ease. The other
members of the royal family, max
ing much of the inattention he gave
state matters, formed a conspiracy
to GUST him. Siptah called in his
daughter, Taasrit, to help him. She
was widely known as a clever wom-
an and took an active part in the
government She helped her father
over his crisis and encouraged by
her success, aspired to the supreme
rule of Egypt. She jdeposed her
brother, Amenemses, and thus sue
ceeded to the Egyptian throne.
Amenemses refused thus to be pass
ed over. He formed a plot with an
other brother, Setnakahiti, and his
nephew, Rameses III, son of Selma
kahiti, and deposed Taasrit who,
after a reign of seven years, not only
lost her popularity but was looked
upon with disgust by her subjects.
In 1881, the mummy Of Rameses
II was unearthed among the royal
tombs in Thebes, removed from the
royal sepulchre and placed in Cairo,
where it can now be seen in the ia
NOUS Gizeh Museum.

brew and the proficiency of the pu-
pills showed what splendid work had
been done during the school year.
To hear a girl read difficult Psalm
in Hebrew and in fluent Hebrew
proceed to give an excellent para
phrase, answering in the meantime
questions designed to test her under
standing, was one Of the pleasant
details of the examination. Nor
were the boys behind in their work.
To hear mere slip of a lad enumer-
ate the works Of Josephus, or indi
cate the tendency of Yehudah Ha-
levi, or speak in matter of fact
way of the works of Maimonides was
to say the least, a novel feat. The
questions put by the examiners,
which tested the understanding of
the graduates as we'll as their flu
ency, left little to be desired When
Minneapolitans are told by visiting
lecturers that the local Talmud
Torah is as fine a school as the Jews
in America have they may think it
is out of reciprocal courtesy that
the compliment is paid.
Examinations like last Sundays,
however, prove that what remains
with the pupils at the end of the
course is no less gratifying than the
excellence of the daily routine teach
ing that SO favorably impresses the
visitors.

1t seems that Arkansas is still in the grasp of the book trust. as the Emory Text Book Bill, which pro vides for the state printing it's own books and furnishing them to the people at cost, is being "sn1othered" in the House. In sother words, the agents of this trust. who have been watching" the legislature, seem to have gotten in their work. -Kensett Americn.
 IF this be true some smother ing' sould be done by the people at the next election. We believe however, that a majority of the members of the House will see that this most important meas ure is converted into a law.

A Recognized Mexico.

The final step in the recognition
of the CarraDZa Government 10
Mexico has been taken The United
States has acknowledged his election
and the immediate future of Mexico
is in the hands of CarraDza and his
advisers
The Mexican problem does not
loom quite SO largely on the inter-
national horizon as it did a year
ago. Time is aiding Mexico to heal
SOME of its worst wounds and a
general exhaustion is aiding in keep
ing the country quiet. No one who
pretends even to a long range
knowledge of Mexico believes that
its troubles are over, but there is far
less pessimism over the outlook
than there was few months ago.
A constitution radical as Socia
lists dream has been passed. an
election has been held. much BAN
ditry put down and start has been
made toward genuine government.
Now comes the task Of recognizing
the well.nieh desperate finances,
wedding out the CRATER from Govern.
ment departments. replacing doubt
full provincial authorities with re-
liable men and recreating industry.
In all these. as 10 the distribution
of lands. there are infinite posi-
bilities of disorder and even rev0-
luton.
The old bandit leaders are caus-
ing little trouble. Villa seems will.
ing to quit, while Zapats, to the
south of the capital. is causing but
little uDeasiness. The last stage Of
Carranza's work has been reached
In some respects it will be the hard
est Of all.

Every opportunity for enjoyment
will be given the soldiers of the

Harry Rowland has been placed in
charge of the construction of a
small city to be located almost in
the center of the camp. where
amusements and business houses of
all kinds will be erected.
The idea of Maj General Leonard
Wood, commanding, is to have a
white way, where the soldiers can
gather, spend their money. make
purchases and enjoy themselves.

Gardener Plea Fails.

Virtually all hope that the War
Department would materially

souri, National Guard regiments. a

cation plan. was abandoned by Gov
Gardner Monday. after conferences
with President Wilson and Secretary
Baker.
Although the Secretary told the
Governor he had wired instructions
to Gen Berry. acting commandant
at Fort Sill. Ok. to maintain the
historical units in Missouri in so far
as the efficiency of the reorgani
cation would permit, neither the
President nor the Secretary could
promise that radical changes in the
general order would be made.
10 half hours talk with Gov
Gardner at the White House, Pfesi'
dent Wilson reviewed the entire
military situation and frankly ad
mitted that the methods now being
/ followed had been proposed by
NJ arshal Joffre. the hero Of the bat
tie of the Marine" as necessary to
successful trench warfare.
Gov. Gardner suggested that there
might at least be some modification
of the order in so far as it affects
the Missouri Guardsmen. If this
possibly could be done without de
tracing from military efficiency.

After the War.

No one knows whether the end OF
the war will bring hard times or
prosperity, But it is certain that
little money well invested will come
in handy in either case. 1t will en-
able one to take advantage of good
opportunities if any offer, or will
bridge over a tight time should
that be the result.
Those who can save some of their
earnings cannot do better than to
invest it in the Government Liberty
Loan Bonds, There will be anoth.
er issue Of these. some time this
fall They are absolutely safe. tax
free. and readily convertible into
cash any time the need may arise.
The interest they will pay is as GER
tain as the existence of the govern
ment itself. Moreover investing in a
Liberty Loan Bond is interesting in
victory for Americas cause. The
bonds are to furnish the money
that will win the war and bring
peace and safety to the world
