Evangelist Oliver l.. Denslow, who
spoke here Sunday night to a very
interested audience on 1.-THE Crash
of EMPIRES" is very entertaining
speaker and held the attention of his
audience to the very last. Although
a Young man he has had quite wide
experience in public work. He has
coundcted meetings in the cities OF
Aberdeen and Seattle, Washington,
Richmond, Va, and Nashville, Tenn,
besides many smaller places through
ont the country. During the past
three wears he has been acting as
pastor of one of the large churches
in Nashville and resigned his work
there recently to enter again the
evanpelistic work which is more to
his liking. From here he goes to Lou
sville where he will conduct long
effort during the summer months.
In his sermon Sunday night he
dwelt to some length upon the diplo.
matte background of the present
war. Among other things he declared
that the war is not being fought over
autocracy, democracy or militarism
hut is primarily a war for territory
In proof of this he showed how that
for hundreds of years Russia has
been seeking to gain control OF Con
stantinople but with the rise OF the
German world empire program Rus
STA saw the possibility that she might
lose forever the goal of her ambl
ton. On the other hand Germany
saw in Asia Minor territory that wa:

your liver fails to perform it's func-

Queen Elizabeth made frequent trips to
England 10 see her children, usually going
there by aeroplane.
After the war had been going on for
three years the two boys, who we're grow

dressed in military uniforms and remained
with their parents.
1t Is a curious fact that before the war
Queen Elizabeth was very delicate wo-

The Germans still had the harbor under
artillery fire and the British destroyer and
her companions were in fact in danger or

No revolution threatens her. No Red
Guards" will disturb the security OF her
self or her family. Even II Socialist
government were established the people
would surely keep the King and Queen at
the head of the State.
Why has the Queen Of the Bclgians es-
pecially won lasting place in the atfec-
lions OF her people? Because she has
stayed with them in all their miscres.
Because she has given all her Jewels for
the relief OF the homeless. Because she
has nursed her wounded countrymen with
great skill. Because she has lived through
out the war in humble house on the last
strip OF Belgian soil that was not con-
quered by the Germans.
Perhaps the strangcst fact Of all about
the Queen is that she is of German birth.
She was the Duchess Elizabeth OF Bavaria,
member Of branch OF the Bavarian royal
family. So thoroughly has Queen Eliza
beth identified herself with Belgian ma.
tional life that the Belgians have quite
forgotten that she came from the race that
caused all their miseries

palace in Brussels until the Germans had
reached the suburbs OF the city, and then
she retreated with the army.
GAS long as one square foot Of Belgian
soil is left, will stay on it," declared the
Queen, and right we'll did she carry out
this brave resolution.

When the battle lines had become al
most fixed after the first great onrush Of
the Germans and their subsequent defeat
at the Marine, there remained OF Belgian
soil in Belgian possession n triangular
strip twenty miles long on the North Sea
and about fifty miles al its greatest depth.
The twenty-mile coast strip ran from

the kind that middle-class Belgians used
to keep for their Summer vacations. Her

The Queen walked daily on the neigh.

av!ators and the battles at sea and wait

King Albert's kingdom was in fact, re-
duced to strip of sand. THE king Of a
ridge OF sand which he has made more
glorious than any throne in Europe" the
Belgian poet Maetcrlinck called him.
The Queens chief interest in life at La
Pannc was the management Of her hos
pital for Belgian wounded, called Lam.

what had formerly been the Chief hotel
of this seaside resort.
Queen Elizabeth is a thoroughly quail
fed doctor She began her medical cdu-
cation under her father, Duke Carl Theo-
der OF Bavaria, who was noted as an
oculist and performed 1900 operations for
cataract, in addition TO other work. Queen
Elizabeth took her medical degree at Leip-
zig University shortly before her mar
riage. Aftcrward she continued her medi-
cal studies at Brussels.
The Queens hospital accommodated
1000 wounded. Funds for it's maintenance
were collected all over the world. The
Queen contributed largely to its support
by pawning her family Jewels III England
for s250,000. Its chief surgeon was DR..
Antoine Depage, whose wife came 10
America 10 solicit subscriptions. She lost
her life while returning on the Lusitania.
Queen Elizabeth worked in this hospital
daily. taking care that everything was go
ing well and making notes Of new supplies
needed. Restoration OF badly MANNED pa
tients, who had lost legs, arms, eyes and
other essential organs, was a great fea-
,nre OF this hospital. Most wonderful re-
suits were obtained.
patient with one wooden leg was
taught TO put down his artificial leg with
the same pressure as the natural one. To
insure this he was told to walk on little
platform which registered the force Of
each footprint. If the artificial leg came
down too hard, il showed he was using it
like crutoh and that would upset the
balance OF his body. The experts trained
him to correct this.
Artificial limbs of remarkable lightness
and strength were made at the hospital
So well was this industry developed that
the former patients built up a very profit
able trade in artificial limbs.
Another diversion was established for
making surgical instruments. and this
helped to make the hospital sclf-support-
ing.
Near the beach was pavilion in which
Danish masseuses helped injured men to
recover the use Of their muscles. In Sum
mer the patients basked in the sunshine
on the beach. which greatly helped their
recovery.
Every bed in the hospital was supplied
with a gas mask, for the institution had
several times been gassed by the Germans
The doctors noted with satisfaction that
gas was a valuable exterminator Of rats
and vermin.
One of the many patients was a poor
woman Of La Panne who had lost both
legs through a German aviator's bomb,
which had also killed her three children.
The Queen was, of course, subject to the
same risks as these poor people.
Many tales are told of the kindly per-
sonal interest shown by the Queen in her

gave it to the soldier.

Monterey, Tenn. Mar. IS, 1918 Dear ARGUS:
 I live on the top of the Cum berland Mountains, one mile from the thriving little town of Montery. The mountain IS rich in timber as well as coal. There are several large mines near here. Farming is not carried on very extensively. the princi- pal crop being Irish potatoes. This land yields from 100 to 300 bushels of potatoes per acre, Corn is raised here, too, to some extent, and hay Also all kinds of vegetables.
 My dear mother has had the ARGUS sent to me and ] cannot express the pleasure l derive from its pages, for was raised in old Monroe county, in the Shiloh neighborhood, and have only been away 9 little over two years, yet what changes have taken place since I left there. Some of my dear old friends are married. some have left their homes to go to other places, and saddest of all, so many have gone to their Eternal home. Among the latter was my dear father whom the people of Shiloh all remember with kindly feeling, I am sure, and many other ot my friends have been laid to rest in the Shiloh cemetery.
 1 hear that Shiloh is coming to the front once more, that they are having a splendid Sunday School and that they are keeping the cemetery clean and in per feet shape, Long may they prosper in their undertaking IS the prayer of
