OUR MEN HUNT THE BOAR.

In this country (northern France)
the wild boar has become a wartime
nuisance. 1t hangs out in the thick
cts, from which it makes its forays
against growing crops. Once the
sporting tendencies of the native
gentry kept them down; but since
the war began they have enjoyed
great immunity in their night raids.
And some of our men, waiting for
orders or for billets, have taken to
the sport, VIII Irwin writes in the
Saturday Evening Post.
You use a blunderbuss of shot
gun, loaded with buckshot of exag-
gerated size. So armed, you wait in
path of the thicket while dogs
range it, driving the bears ahead Of
them. You have only momentary
chance to shoot when the boar jumps
across your path. The captain who
headed the party that day got no
boars, but the corporal who went
with him got two.

MATERIAL FORCE OF WEALTH
Modern Man Desires Millions Chiefly
for the Distinction Which 1t
Confers Upon Him.

Many factors go toward lowering
the tone of this mankind whence
genius should spring as a mailman
or a god. One is our intense con-
seriousness of money. The discovery
of money is recent, for the rich men
of the Bible wanted focks and lands
only 80 that they might eat well,
drink well, and wed fair women; the
lust of Ahab was rather unusual. At
other times, in Babylon, in Venice,
wealth brought material benefits
first, later only distinction. Only
with the rise of the middle class did
wealth become the greatest force, for
it alone could make the middle class
equal with. their fellows. As they
could claim no lineage, they natural
ly came to want to claim themselves
better than their kind-the mer-
chant princes of the Victorian
period, their sideboards, barouches
and sarcophagi; the American mil
lionaires with their demon cars,
their Ritz-Carlton dinners, their in
vestments in old masters (guaran-
teed moldy), are natural conse-
quences. Whereas in the seventeenth
century you could impress if you
were a duke, in the twentieth CEN
fury if you become a millionaire you
can stun. And you can stun only
because everybody admires you fol
being millionaire, because, as Miss
Marion Ashworth perfectly says,
"there are people whom the mention
of great fortunes always makes SOL
emn." -Harper's.

SEES CHINA A FUTURE POWER
American Resident of FIowery King
dom Tells Why Great Eastern
Land Must Be Reckoned With.

George B. Fryer, superintendent
OF the institutions for the Chinese
blind in Shanghai, recently said:
"The Chinese, comprising one
third of the population of the globe,
with their awakening mentally,
thirst for education, and, with their
wonderful powers of concentration,
and resources undrained by war, will
be a powerful factor in the world of
the future.
"The blind boys in my school," he
said, care showing great interest in
the institutions for the rehabilitation
OF the soldiers blinded in the war,
especially that of st. Dunstan's.
Many of our boys are working vol
unfairly outside of school hours,
cleaning windows, busting floors and
the like, in order to earn money to
help blind soldiers. Each boy earns
on an average of about 20 cents for
three months work, and they are all
anxious to show their sympathy and
interest.
"There are 100000 blind people
in China" said Mr. Fryer, zone for
every 400. The proportion in the
United States is about one to 1000"
The school of which Mr.. Fryer is
superintendent was endowed by his
father, DR.. John Fryer, professor
emeritus of oriental languages in the
University of California, who trans
lated educational books for 40 years
for the Chinese government.

COMMENDED FOR BRAVE ACT
United States Marines Displayed Un-
usual Courage and Goodness While
on Duty In Santo Domingo.

Matching themselves against a
dangerous crowd of intoxicated
Dominicans to save another native
from being murdered, two United
States marines on duty in the Do
minican republic did some cool
thinking and quick acting which re-
suited in their being specially COM
mended by Major General Barnett
of the marine corps. In a native
brawl one Sunday a Dominican was
fatally wounded by two of his COM
patriots. The assailants wanted to
finish off the job in their own way,
and would have had a good chance
of so doing had it not been for Corp.
William Henigsmith and Private
Charles E. Willard. Corporal Henig-
smith forced his way to the wounded
Dominican and coolly applied first
aid treatment. The intoxicated ma
tives crowded about, protesting and
threatening. But the two marines
finally forced them to conduct the
wounded man to a hospital. For
nine and half hours Henigsmith
and Willard stayed with the wound
ed Dominican and protected him. To
both these men it was merely action
in the line of duty, but the post COM
mander recognized that they had dis
played unusual GOODNESS, adaptable
ity and initiative, and the incident
won them an official commentator.
Corporal Henigsmith is son of Jo-
scph Hcnigsmith, 915 Forest ave-
nue., Mishawaka, Ind, and enlisted
in the marine corps at Akron, O., in
July, 1916. Private Willard is a son
of Harry Willard, Spring City, Pa.
He enlisted at Buffalo, N. Y, in
July, 1914.

fire protection through well distributed water plugs

PERFECTLY AT HOME IN AIR
Lumiere, French Aviator, Does Some
Remarkable Stunts" That Would
Seem to Invite Disaster.

The wild man in the Newport was
out again this morning giving some
one joy ride, says letter of Stuart
Walcott, Franco-American air serv-
ice, published in the National Geo.
graphic Magazine. There is long
straight stretch of road in front of
our piste and he came down that sew
eral times, nasty, puffy wind blow
ing which bothered him not at all,
flying only two or three feet of the
ground.
In front of the piste is telephone
wire crossing the road He came
along the road 100 miles an hour I'M
til almost on top of the wire, and
jumped up just in time to clear it
by few feet-really beautiful work.
He goes all over the surrounding
country flying low, hopping over
trees and houses sometimes turn
ing up sideways to slip between two
trees a bit too close together to fly
through-sometimes dragging a
wing through the space between a
couple of hangers or doing vertical
viragcs just in front of them.
1t doesn't seem possible that any
man can be so much part of his
machine, can be so consistently ac-
curate that he never misses. For
this chap, Lumiere, has never had a
smash.

ALBERT MEDAL FOR chill DREN
Brave Act of Canadian Youngsters IN
Fighting Cougar Officially Rec
ognized by King George.

In recognition of their courage in
fighting off with their fists cougar
which attacked them, King George
has awarded the Albert medal to two
children Of Cowichan Lake, Vancou-
yer Island. The children are Doreen
Ashburnham, eleven years old, and
Anthony Farrer, eight years old. Ac-
cording to the account of the incl
dent recorded in the Official Gazette,
it transpired as follows:
On the 23rd of September, 1916,
the two children left their homes at
Comichan Lake for the purpose of
catching their ponies, and when
about half mile from home they
were attacked by the cougar. They
were almost upon the animal before
they saw it crouching in path at a
corner. The cougar first sprang upon
the little girl and she was knocked
down with her face to the ground,
the animal being on her back.
The boy at once attacked the cou-
gar with his fists and riding bride,
driving the animal off the girl; it
then attacked him, and his compan-
ion, getting to her feet, came to his
rescue, fighting with her clenched
hands and bride, even putting her
arm into the cougars mouth to try
to prevent it from biting him. She
succeeded in getting it off the boy.
1t then stood on its hind quarters
and fought with her, but evidently
was disturbed by some sound, as it
presently skunk away and ran under
a log, where it was afterward killed.
The cougar measured over seven
feet from nose to tip of tail

NOT UTTERED By KoSClUSzk0
Famous Polish Patriot Denied Having
Used Phrase Which Has Been So
Generally Credited to Him.

Like most sayings attributed to
great men, "Finis Potomac" the end
of Poland, has no historical founda-
ton whatever. 1t was put into the
mouth of Field Marshal Tadeusz
Kosciuszko (1746-1781) in No. "a
Of the official Sud-Preussische Zeit-
Jung of October rs, 1894. 1t was said
that Kosciuszko on his flight after
the battle of Maciejowice got stuck
in sandhill; the Cossacks had shot
his horse under his body, and when
he jumped from his horse he was
wounded in the back of the head
The Cossacks then carried him on
four poles into their camp, where he
handed over his sword with the cry,
"Finis Regni Potomac
In letter to Count Louis Philip
pc de Segur of November IL, 1903,
who incorporated it in his "Tableau
Historique ct Politique de PEurope
de 17S4-96." Paris, 1900, Kosciuszko
emphatically denies having uttered
this cry.
The Poles replied to this spurious
cry Of lament with the famous Dom
browski march of an unknown an-
thor:
"Jcszcze Polska ME zginela"
("Poland is not yet lost''), first sung
by the Polish legion organized by
Donlbrowski under Bonaparte in
1876.
