Mail. AT one Of the American camps
the other evening an informal concert
was held which was attended by
number OF poilus from French regi-

to sing. He did so. and began. without
accompaniment, one Of the most diff

The singing was remarkable, and a

Iowa City. June 17.-Perilously
swinging out of place, from four inches
to almost foot, an entire wall in the
Y. NJ. C. A. building at Iowa City
threatened to cave in and submerge
the soldiers and equipment at the new
cantonment here-the Iowa university

Saturday with 1865 boys from all over
Iowa participating. The building force
of the university, however, went to
work early with jacks, and have forced
the whole wall back into place and the
impending destruction is averted. At
the top Of the wall, for nearly forty
feet, a gap Of several inches was visible
and at the bottom another chasm was
revealed before the immense pressure

Republic Tomorrow.

A mother forcing her daughter into
a supposedly advantageous marriage
only to discover that her child has
been sold into slavery worse than
death-this is a situation as old as
civilization itself Yet in blue Blood
a thrilling SeleXart drama, distribut-
ed by Goldwyn, il is depicted with
such relentless realism that specta-
tors forget it is a screen drama, be-
lieving it is life itself unfolding be-
for them.
With startling fidelity to life, Blue
Blood proves that ownership of an
old and honored name does not ne
cessarily imply that its possessors
are either strong in character or in
distinguished ancestry. That it is a
fallacy to suppose that because a
mans immediate forbears are well
known he is himself worthy of re-
spect is graphically brought out in
this play
Spencer Wellington is shown to be
descended from the scum of London's
slums, yet he is looked upon as a true
scion of distinguished ancestry until
the audience is shown what manner
of men are his forefathers. blue

YOUR CONVERSATION
SHOULD BE GUARDED.

Writing in the Philadelphia Press,
Sophia Irene Loeb has the following
very pertinent set of remarks upon
the subject of the Americans ordi-
nary public conversation.
"Please refrain, when in public
places or before strangers, from any
remarks of a nature to weaken patri-
otto energy and confidence in our lead
ers and in our Allies, or from state
ments regarding the number of move
ments of our troops, the work of mu-
milton plants, etc. Information over
heard may be reported where it can
give aid or comfort to our enemies"
This in the "on-your-guard" card
being sent broadcast by New York
Association in cooperation with the
Washington authorities.
AS you read the words of caution
think it over Tell your family. Tell
everybody. You can't tell it too often.
Hundreds of officers are in the city.
Many of them come from abroad. Do
not urged them to give you inside
facts" if they are your friends.
They may unconsciously and unin-
tentional1y tell something to you, in
confidence, which you in turn may
thoughtlessly repeat. Perhaps you
will repeat it in the subway riding
home with another friend.
An enemy spy may be sitting right
next to you. He only needs a little
clue. Off he goes to tell it to his chief.
His chief has ways and means of
piecing hints together and ascertain
ing important details.
The most harmless conversation has
caused the most direful disasters. 1t
is said on good authority that the net
work of enemy spies is of vast pro-
portion. They are there when you
least expect them-in every walk of
life.
A few days ago l was seated with
an officer and some friends in a small
restaurant. Some one began discuss
ing the number of troops and men
leaving our shores.
Immediately the officer cautioned us
to be still. He then told US that at
the tables all around us there might
be spies; also among the employees
and attendants.
Certainly no American employer
wants to engage workers who are
spies, but they creep in. 1t is one of

First Appendicitis Operation.

There was a time when Appendix
citis was quite fashionable disease.
In some parts of Europe is was known
as the american disease" The first
operation for appendicitis was per-
formed at st. Luke's hospital, Denver,
Colo, in January, 1885. A young wonn-
an residing in Davenport Ia, had the
distinction of being the first person TO
have the troublesome vermiform APP
pendix removed. The operation, neces-
sarily, was In the nature Of an ex-
pertinent, and the patient was so in
formed, but she pluckily declared her
willingness to submit to the knife as a
last resort. 1t was not until about two
years later that another operation OF
this kind was performed. Since then
thousands of such operations have
been performed in every hospital in
the world.

BIBLE WITHIN REACH OF ALL
May Be Well Described as the Most
Valuable and Cheapest Book
In the World.

The Bible is the most valuable and
the cheapest book in the world. Its
value we all acknowledge, but did you
know that you could buy complete
Bible of 1000 double pages for 30
cents in Germany and IL cents in Eng
land and the United States? And
copies of the New Testament are sold
in England for a penny apiece!
In the thirteenth century fine Eng
fish Bible cost EDO.
At that time the wages of laborer
were nine pence a week. So to buy
a Bible he must save his entire in
come for Is years.
OF course he didn't. He went to the
churches, where the precious volume
was chained to the desk to keep it
safe, and there he read the exciting
Old Testament stories or the beauti-
full Gospels, or more likely listened to
q reader who was better educated
than he.
In those days the Bible was val
liable in every way. Today work
man may buy the New Testament by
walking home one night instead of
taking the car, or giving Ut. the potato
he had planned for his dinner.-From

NEW HONOR ACCORDED DAVID
Might with Entire Propriety Be Gallo;
the First Bandma5ter Recorded
In History.

David might we'll be called the fir (
bandmaster mentioned in history, f
he was the first orchestral organizer
of which we have any record. HIS
band numbered two hundred, four
score and eight, and he thus led the
first body OF players. He no doubt
possessed a knowledge of instrument
tation and tone-color effect, for he
assigns his subjects to special instru-
mentS.
The fourth Psalm, "Hear me when
I call, o God Of my Righteousness
he directs to be played by his chief
musician, who was player Of the
harp and the sackbut. Psalm fifth.
"Give ear TO my words, o Lord" he
assigns to the chief musician, who
was the solo flutist of his band.
Psalm sixth, 30 Lord, rebuke me not
in thine anger" the chief musician
or soloist on the string instrument,
who had a. virtuoso's regard for .ex-
preston, is called upon to perform,
and so on through the Psalms.
David without question had in his
band all of the component parts Of
the modern orchestra-strings wood.
winds, brass and percussion. AT the
dedication of Solomon's temple, David
and all the house of David played
before the Lord with all manner OF
instruments made of fir wood, and
with harps and with psaltries with
trimbels, castanets, comets and GYM
balls, and the sound Of the trumpet
was heard in the land even as it is
heard today" Popular as a composer
and popular as a conductor, David was
certainly to be envied.
From these Biblical days to the
present time the instrumental body has
existed in many forms-bands COM
posed entirely of bagpipes, orchestras
composed entirely of string instru-
ments, bands of oboe players, bands
entirely of brass, bands of brass and
wood-wind, bands of-trumpets, bands
IF bugles, bands of drums, and all
sorts of combinations have been made
by man.

MOTHER HAD REASONED WELL
Decision That Combined Strict Justice
and knowledge Of the Child
Character.

Ny child and my sisters two chill
dren were playing in the room next to
where my sister and / were talking.
Presently her older boy came in and
said that the others were bothering
him. He was building a railroad and
they took his things; would mother
please make them stop? To my sur
prise, she said surely she would; it
was too bad they bothered him. and
she called them in with us, and when
she had started them playing there
she quietly closed the door between the
two rooms. In a moment 1t opened,
and the young railroad builder said he
did not care about having the door
shut, he only did not want to be both
cred. But the mother answered that
she could not keep the little folks hap
DIV If they saw him with all the things;
the door would have to stay shut. Ev-
cry little while, for half an hour or so,
on one excuse or another, that door
came open, and just as surely a rea-
son was given why it must be kept
shut. Then the law of the Kingdom,
the Spirit in Man, worked; every one
knows what would happen. The boy
came where we were, and leaning
against his mother, had treble in his
voice as he said: "Td rather stay in
here; it's lonesome in there and /
don't care about the things"
She had not told him he was wrong,
but it was just as the inventor said:
eff you understand the case and the
law governing it, any one can tell what
will happen. Certain things always
work certain ways."-Eleanor Scott
Sharples, in the Philadelphia Ledger.

turization of the popular novel. His
Robe of Honor" will be the splendid
attraction at the Colonial this even
ing
The story is that Of a leopard Judge
who changes his spots under the re-
filming influence of a young society
woman. whose innate force of charac-
ter fans his spark of manhood into
flame of noble character. The strug-
giles of the awakened soul OF the man
reaches a climax when the issue
seemingly is that a duty performed
will have as its reward impeachment
and disgrace, while recreance will
bring honor and position. Which will
he choose? The unraveling of the
tanglement which brings happiness
to those who have fought so hard,
gives Mr. Walthall a most unusual
opportunity to run the entire gamut
of human emotions. The story is a
graphic exose of the methods used in
many of the larger cities where the
bench is controlled by politics. But
aside from this, there is a strongly.
yirile love story running through 1t
all that makes it impressiFcly human

ExnIainInn Turbine ENGINE.

"The best idea can give of it"
said an engineer, as to liken it ia
those paper windmills which spin on
the end of stick and which are sold
to children in the streets. A turbine
in fact, is like a series of those re-
volving wheels fixed one behind the
other, only instead of being turned by
the wind it is revolved by jets OF
steam. The turbine wheels turn a
shaft inside a cylinder, in the in4
terror of which are fixed a number of
stationary blades which project into
the spaces between each wheel. The
purpose of these blades is to catch the
steam and direct 1T on to the wheels
at an angle where it will exert the
most force. AS the steam enters the
cylinder it is caught by the stations
airy blades and detected on to the
blades of the first wheel, which are
set turning. The steam then passes
to the next until all the wheels are set
whirling and the ship is driven through
the water"

good book viii do wonders to remake
health by resting and awakening

The habit of the day seems to be to
eliminate poetry from chosen lines or
reading. This is an error. Those who
are to a reasonable proportion familiar
with best verse viii find that they have
a smooth and easy grace in general ex-
