In : lecture In connection with the
Egypt Exploration, fund. on Burial
Customs in Mesopotamia and Egypt"
DR.. L. w. King said the spirit which
animated the Egyptians in their varied
and changing practices toward the
dead was based on affection and rev.
erence, but the Babylonian. IN the
main, was prompted by fear. Tho
Babylonians were probably more
spook-ridden than any other nation
Of antiquity. and their magical texts
made 1t clear that tho most terrible
class OF spirits were the ghosts OF
the dead who for some reason had
been unable to enter the underworld.
Driven to hunger and thirst. such .
ghost might roam about and fasten on
anyone with whom It had relationa
in this life. and 1t would plague him
until he performed the rites that
could give peace. 1t was mainly to lay
the ghost and prevent 1t from haunt
ing" that the Babylonians were scru-
pulous in performing the due burial
rites.-London Times

u. S. Troops No,v
Being Trained For
Drive on Berlin

Washington. June o. American
troops in training at home are being
specially schooled now in preparation
for the forward movement against the
Germans which is certain to follow
final defeat of the present German Of
fensive campaign.
1t was learned yesterday that orders
have been issued to division COM
manders to lay greater stress on train
ing for open warfare and reduce the
time devoted to teaching trench war
fare.
The men are being hardened to long
marches, given target practice without
end, and thoroughly trained to care
for themselves in the give-and- take
open combat, all in preparation for the
advance toward Berlin.
Military observers say this change in
the midst of the greatest effort of the
German general staff of the entire war
speaks significantly of the spirit of con-
idence that pervades the councils and
armies of America and the allies. When
many of the men now in training here
reach France, long marches and swift
maneuvering against a retreating foe
IIdy NCli NC LILO oluel VI VIC uaSs
influential officers returning from the
front have been insisting recently upon
greater attention to general elements
of warfare and less to the fine details
of position fighting in fixed trench lines.
These officers say the American SOL
der takes naturally to training of this
sort and that he should be developed
as highly as possible in all around SOL
diering, leaving the details Of trench
warfare education to be added by a
brief post graduate course when he
reaches France.
This view found ready sympathy
here, for it is believed the old stale
mate Of the trench lines has been
broken, never to be restored.
Today's news from the front added
to the growing confidence that General
Foch has outgeneraled the Germans on
the Aisne front in having brought them
to halt without weakening the de-
lenses Of the channel ports.
Territory has been yielded, but no
points Of strategic value, and the Ger
mans must try again to draw away
the supporting lines in Picardy and
Flanders, or face the necessity Of hurl-
ing their army into the wall of man
power, French, British and American.
that now blocks the road to the channel
ports.
officers who have come from the
front say the American units pouring
into France In a steady and growing
stream despite German U-boats at both
ends Of the 3,ooo-mile water haul are
arriving we'll advanced in training.
Commenting upon the high tributes
paid by French and British officers to
the Americans. 1t was remarked that
while the engagements In which the
Americans have been given a chance
as yet have been minor affairs proper
tionately, always the dash has been
there.
One officer recently back from the
front pointed out that while French
and British veterans are brave beyond
words, ready for battle whenever and
wherever it may come. they are cooled
by long years of the struggle The
Americans are craving chance to
fight, for it Is all new to them.

Elected relatively in oats, but the main
influence was the presence of export
bids in all markets. Some business
was said to have been done at outside
markets, but local dealers considered
the bid prices as too low.
