With freedoms holy light;

WAR AND CRIME

In a book entitled THE War
and Crime Among the Young"
DIR. Albert Helwig a police Judge
in Germany, has given to the
world the statement that since
the war began, crime in that
country among children has in
creased to an amazing degree.
He attributes this to the absence
of fathers to the front, the
slackening Of school discipline,
trashy literature and moving
picture films of bloodshed and
violence. After reviewing con-
ditions covering two years of
war wherein crimes of sheer
brutality seem to show the
greatest increase, he says:
The excessive excitement Of
the childish imagination by the
events of the war, especially as
they are depicted IN trashy lit
.erature and cheap motion picture
films is one of the brutslizing in
fluences acting upon our young
people in time of war. To inoc-

more and more difficult in these
times. to convict a person on ey-
idence of a circumstantial ma
ture. Well selected juries are
composed of conscientious think
ing men and if there should ex
list any reasonable doubt as to
the guilt Of the defendant they
are loathe to render a verdict
that sends to death the helpless
one without positive proof. As
a rule these conservative minded
men refuse to be lured from the
path of grave concern by prose
cutting attorneys who paint the
crime of the defendant in lurid
colors in order to accomplish his
conviction. In this case the
state demanded the death penal
ty and described the defendant
as the "comely music teacher,
and this style of description
seems to have entered into the
deliberations in the jury room
and the jury was quick to see
that comliness and the lack of
substantial evidence was not
sufficient to establish the defend
ants guilt. Mrs. Mooney stood
convicted in the public mind on
the charge of the state but the
time for thinkers has come.
Crocodile tears from prosecuting
attorneys cannot alter the calm
deliberations of a jury composed
of men who weigh ey ry atom
of evidence and who vill allow
nothing to move them % a con-
clusion but positive proof.

ulate our children with hate
would breed lust for revenge and
could bear nothing but evil fruit.
Such expressions as these com
ing from a man like DR.. HelSig
show that the spirit of hate pre-
walls thruout all Germany. The
German press publishes as he
further says, reports of horrors
inflicted upon the enemy, non
combatants, combatants and pris-
oners alike, but they have no re-
ports of mercy shown toward the
enemies in their power. They
boast Of air raids on defenseless
cities killing innocent women and
children accompanied by hid

on the thought of children the
false law Of hate, lust and re-
venge instead of Gods everlaat-
ing and perfect law Of lo,e, mer
cy and tenderness. No individ-
ual or nation, as the case may be
can overthrow the low Of love
for truth is mighty and will pre-
vail. Bismark, the great Iron
Chancellor" possessed this same
false sense Of hate. When on his
deathbed he said, IL can think
of no good deed that ! ever done

A Mighty Monolith.

A writer in the Christian Herald
says that he had heard great stories
about the pyramids, but that after
seeing the stones at Baalbek those
of the great pyramids looked like
children's building blocks. In the
quarry is stone on the upper sur
face of which troop Of cavalry
could stand. 1t is squared on five
sides, but not yet detached from
the ledge.
The Arab legend is that female
giant was carrying the stone when
she heard her baby cry. She drop
ped it there, and no one has moved
it since. If that baby had not cried
for its mother there would be today
in the walls of the temple stone
seventy feet long and fifteen feet
square. Doubtless it will some day
Justify the amount of work done
upon it. At present it helps six

DEATH IN THE ExPL0 0sl0N.
A Tragedy Of What Was the Largest
Gsyssr In the World.

While the Waimangu geyser, in
New Zealand. lasted it was the larg-
est in the world. Its name, black
water in the Maori tongue, came
from the dark column Of water and
debris that it threw up at every
eruption. Stones and boiling wa
ter, accompanied by vast clouds of
steam. rose 900 to 800 feet at ir-
regular intervals twenty or twenty
two times month. At other times
the water of the Waimangu lay in
cup shaped depression about 20 feet
deep, 249 feet wide and 4O2 feet
long.
Several hours before each erup-
ton the lake would begin to boil
violently and to send off dense
clouds of steam. Loud subterra-
mean rumblings were heard. When
the final explosion came the whole
lake, mingled with material from
below, rose bodily. Its torrential
fall was destructive to a large area
round about, and the slopes near by
are still furrowed by the rivers Of
water that coursed down them. The
column of water was thrown up
about four times as high as the
Giant gevser, now the largest in the
Yellowstone park, throws its water,
and the area of its base was about
two and half acres in comparison
with the few square rods of the
American geyser.
Close by the geyser is a hill sur
mounted by an iron hut, about 45O
feet above the pool, where observ-
ers took refuge during eruptions.
One day in August, 1903, a party
was on the slope below this build
ing watching the boiling pool. As
the approach of the explosion be-
came more imminent the guide
warned them back, and all except
four obeyed. The mother of one of
the young ladies called to her, but
she wanted to take another photo
graph and answered, Gust a mo-
ment, mother" During that mo-
ment the eruption occurred, and
the disobedient young lady and her
three companions were swept to
tragic death.-Youth's Companion.
