ON WITH THE DANCE

It is night The tables are grouped about a skating rink of artificial ice Between rink and diners is only a mar row race track, where the guests may dance. The music stops, the dancers ianguidly rejoin their tables. They are to gaze upon a scene that will stir even their jaded appetites.
 The harsh lights Jade and soft rose floods the ice. There is fanfare of trumpets and a troop of girls in furs and bare legs skate forward. 5very line and curve of their lovely bodies IS e. vealed as they bend and twist to the sinuous music they follow. Like swal- lows they dart here and there. III measured evolutions they move in stately column or madly Whirl and turn into the group which is the finale They go.
 The Incense of Egypt
 The diners are aweary. Enough of the frozen North, Egypt. Attendants roll a thick. warm velvet rug over the whole ice surface. From somewhere an eastern incense floats through the great hall. A barefoot Egyptian dancer runs forth. Slowly the dance begins. She dances not with her legs alone, but with her whole being. All the fire of the East shines through her move ments. Her arms are snakes to charm and hold. Her eyes are mirrored in the Nile. Her body is the body of desire Wilder and wilder it grows, until at last she sinks together, worn out thing.
 America. To arms A great splen- did fellow six feet tall strides upon the scene. He is clad in American khaki. What soldier he would be. With a gorgeous bass voice he sings modern music hall patriotic song troop of chorus girls, also in American soldier uniforms, troop out to sing the refrain With little mincing tseps they follow the 6footer in war eyolutions. Then all present rise and sing The Star Spangled Banner" Great applause and cheering. It is a real patriotic revival.
 The World at War
 Somewhere that night an American destroyer patrolled little space in the North Sea. It was a moonless night. Anxious watchers scanned the dark ness. The searchlighti No, that flash of white was only the crest of a break ing wave, not the wake of the lightning beneath the sea. Hark! Was that the wind or the whirr of a propeller? Will the dawn never come?

 At night in our shipyards, our muni- tlOnS plants, our steel mills, men and women were toiling till dawn to com plete government orders. At Washing ton anxious department chiefs planned all night long how the nation might be saved. In presidents study a light burned till the sun rose.
 These are the days that try what na- hons are made of. These are the days when nations call for all the energy, all the time and all the funds that their citizens possess. Rome would not cease her play. The barbarians at her gates heard the shouts of her revelers.-From the New York Mail.

LECTURES ARE
 GREAT SUCCESS

Thelecture and entertainment course is an enterprise conceived by the Nor nal school and is carried on by it with the active cooperation of the high and grammar schools and the generous sup port of the citizens of Tempe and vi Cinity. So great has the success and popularity of the course been that the several events comprising it are con- stantly looked forward to by it's many hundred subscribers from year to year, each succeeding season eclipsing the former in stronger programs, interest and attendance.
 It has ever been the policy of the board of education and the faculty to furnish all students with the maximum of beneficial entertainment without in any wise interfering with the highest possible attainment of scholarship. With this end in view special attention has been given to the formation of heaIthful, pleasurable athletics, the normal cadet company has been en- couraged, and by no means least has been the constant effort to bring be-

fore the young people who come to the school. the very highest form of in tellectual entertainment that can be furnished by the various Lyceum bu- reauS.
 Because of the discriminating care exercised in this particular the lecture course offered by the normal has be- come recognized as affording a series of intellectual treats practically above criticism.

An observer sat in the outer office of the secretary of war from in the morning until noon, recently, and in that interval line of thirty-four con- gressmen filed past him into the inner office. With perhaps one or two ex- captions, these men did not come to confer with the secretary on any issue

The rays OF morning glimmered on the scene
His uniform dragon did display,
An emblem of his country's secret scheme,
The cruelties of her enemy to stay.
And yet that country he did sore betray.

Who made this wretched man forget his ranl,
So from this earth her traitorous soul for
ever sank.
