THOSE GOOD TURNS"

NJ OTHING is finer than the prac-
~ tice of the Boy Scouts who do
az least one good turn each
day" 1t prompts the lad to be
thoughtful of others and teaches
him early in life that one cannot
live for himself alone.
But there are occasions when
those who receive the Scouts favor
presume upon good nature. There
comes the story of the Scout who.
riding his bicycle homeward through
a nearby town z short time since,
spied two women and a man strug-
Cling vainly in the hot sun with
a stubborn automobile tire. Weary
himself. he nevertheless remem-
bered his good turn" pledge and of
fered his services, taking the tire
of, removing the tube, taking it to
a nearby shop to be repaired Gin
which operation he punctured the
tire of his bicycle and had to pay
his way back on a street carl, re-
placing the tube and the tire upon
his arrival.
Did those he assisted thank him
effusively and offer to pay for his
puncture and the street car fare he
had expended in their service? Not

Heroes Day" in NelD York
(New York Times)

NNeW ork 11meSD
Mayor Hylan of New York has
issued a proclamation setting apart
Sunday. September l. as Heroes
Day" in honor OF soldiers of New
York who have died in the war. The
proclamation reads:
The last few weeks have been
weeks of battle and of victory for
our soldiers in France. They have
met and beaten the enemy, and have
covered themselves with glory and
added new renown TO the great name
of America.
"A victory so splendid could only
be obtained at a great price, and that
price many of the sons Of New York
have paid with their lives.
1T is altogether fitting that we
should honor those brave men who
have died in arms for the cause of
human liberty by setting aside a day
on which to celebrate their valor
and their achievements and their
supreme sacrifice.
Now, therefore, I, John F. Hylan,
mayor of the city OF New York, do
proclaim that Sunday, September /,
be observed as Heroes Day. in honor
OF those soldiers of New York who
have died in France.
The Mayors Committee on Ma
tional Defense and the Mayors Com
mittee of Women on National De-
fense are hereby appointed a Joint
committee or arrangements to pre-
pare suitable program for the day.
L request that the clergy of all
denominations lend their aid to the
committee on arrangements, that the
officers and members of commercial.
social and patriotic organizations al
so assist in every way possible and
that all good citizens do whatever
lies in their power to make this He
roes' Day a solemn and impressive
public tribute TO our gallant dead. +"

places, will change the course Of the
waters. They will bury only the men
of noble families, the leading COM
mandants. and the Princes, because
to the carnage made by the armies

The Antichrist will ask many times
for peace. but the sevenAngels who
walk in front of the three animals
defending the Lamb have declared
! that victory will only be granted on
the condition that the Antichrist be
crushed like straw on the barn floor
The executors of the justice of the
Lamb cannot stop fighting as long
as the Antichrist possesses soldiers to
fight against them.
That which makes the DEGREES of
the Lamb so implacable is that the
Antichrist has pretended to be a
follower of Christ, and to act in His
name, and If he does not perish the
fruit of the Redeemer could be lost,
and the doors of Hades would prevail
against the Saviour.
The fight which will take place
where the Antichrist forges his ar
mics wall not be in any way a hu-
man fight.
(This may have reference to Es-
sen, where the Krupp works are, and
many authorities believe that the
decisive battle may take place in
Westphalia.)
The three animals defending the
Lamb will exterminate the last army
of the. Antichrist, but they will be
forced to erect on the battlefield a
pyre as large as a city. for the bodies
of the dead will change the aspect of
the countryside, as there will be
mounds of the slain.
The Antichrist will lose his crown,
and will die in solitude and madness
His empire will be divided into twen-
ty-two states, but none of them will
any longer possess fortresses, armies
or vessels.
(Curiously enough, this number
of German States).
The White Eagle, by the order of
st. Michael, will drive the Crescent

gin an era of peace and prosperity
for the earth, and there will be no
more wars. each nation being gov
erned according to its desires. and
living according to the rules of JUS
tice.
There will no longer be Lutherans
or Schismatics. The Lamb will reign
and the supreme happiness of hu-
manity will begin. Happy will be
those who, escaping the perils of that
period. will be able to enjoy the
fruit of the reign of the Spirit and
of the purging of Humanity. which
can only come after the defeat of
the Antichrist.
