articles as our drinking cups, anam-
eled in bright green, blues and reds,
the only ones to be had, show this
influence. Every Brazilian carries a
long knife in the "matto" and you
should see the result of German eff
cheney which has turned them out by
the thousand, two-edged, and ornate,
enclosed in embossed sheaths. Yet see
what Brazil has done in the face OF
these natural and alien handicaps.
She saw through the German propa-
ganda, and on Oct. 9th last, declared
war on Germany and joined the Allies,
body and soul.
At heart Brazil is pro-French. Gull
tured Brazilians all speak French.
Their literary models, and text books,
particularly in the technical schools,
are French. Despite the "made in
Germany" curse, their most cherished
imports are from Paris.
Last fall we found that recruiting
and mobilization were going on every
where. Men in palm thatched houses,
on the edge of the world, two and
even three weeks journey from a
river boat, are sending their sons out
to fight autocracy and the kaiser. One
old man, living in an isolated valley
man who had never seen Germany
even on a map, who never got a news
paper from one years end to the
other, stated the case for the whole
matte: "There is no room is our
world for Germany, senor!" he said.
Brazil has not yet been asked to
send troops. Her present importance
is to be a storehouse for the Allies
Thousands of tons of beans, coffee
leather, minerals and cotton are being
shipped to France. But her greatest
sacrifice was when she sent over 30C
doctors by request, because they were
trained under the French school Oh
medicine. As we know Brazil sadly
needs all her doctors at home.
At one Brazilian port we boarded a
narrow, small boat, built for the Anna
zon river trade and were surprised tc
have the skipper tell US that he was
going to brave the ocean in his frail
craft, to take supplies to France. FIT.
teen or sixteen interned German YES
sells have been fitted up for passenger
and cargo service under the Brazilian
flag.
In another port we saw small boy
diligently rubbing his shoes against q
lamppost. When we demonstrated al
his wastefulness he retorted that his
shoes had been made by Germans
that his father had been unable to buy
any other. "But, I'll rub them to holes
and wear sandals first" he declared
This is BraziPs reply to the ennis
saries of pan-Germanism.
Last year so of our schools and col
leges offered scholarships to Brazilian
boys. We should do our best to teach
these boys more about America
something different from ragtime and
| Charlie Chaplin. We should get in
touch with Brazil as one of the mos;
loyal of the Allies She is pledged tc
supply our armies as long as har.
vests mature, to the utmost of hel
ability, and to the last drop of hei
blood. We need to remember that she
stands shoulder to shoulder with the
enlightened nations of the earth, that
in the face of all her handicaps, she
is carrying on" for democracy.

A speedster drew a fine of eleven
dollars and ten cents in the recorders

Weapons Of the PeruvIans.

The early Peruvians used clubs and
war-hatchets in battle; also sings, for
throwing stones. Skull-fractures must
often have resulted. But apparently
they trephined also for brain troubles
and possibly for other diseases, notes
a medical authority. The surgeon OF
ancient Peru held the head of his pa
tent between his knees, and with a
sharp flint sawed out the button OF
bone-an agonizing process. surely.
Sometimes he filed the hole with a
button of silver. or of mollusk-shelI,
but more often he was content to cover
Il simply with the flap of scalp.
