PARIS, Aug. 15.--George v is de-

woman correspondent OF the Petit
Partisan who writes OF her visit to
Buckingham palace on the occasion
of an open air investiture.
THE sight OF King George In the
midst of his people at this ceremony
filled me with mingled astonishment
and admiration" she asserts. "When
the American labor representatives
said that with King George they had
no impression of being in the press

highest praise on one who is only,
and who is quite content to be only.
the first gentleman of his Kingdom.
There is no difficulty about get
ting in for one of these investitures.
1t is unnecessary to use any influ-
ence or provide oneself with a letter
of introduction. or even a ticket of
admission-the king of England is to
be seen by everybody.
IT noted the simplicity of his cos
tune. There is nothing to 6iistin-
guish him outwardly from all the 9TH
ers.
while God Save the King is be-
ing played he stands at the salute.
holding himself quite straight, his
grave frank countenance full at once
of dignity and kindness. There is |
no hysterical enthusiasm. but in all
eyes may be seen the kind of trust |
and esteem and affectionate pleasure
with which one looks upon a kins-
man or friend of whom one is
proud.
"We have here a truly democratic
sovereign, one who instead of impos-
ing his will upon the people. feels
that he incarnates their sentiments
and wishes, who associates himself
with their labors and shares their
anxieties and ordeals, who fulfills his
difficult role simply and unconscious

Buddy's eyes expressed queer
glare, for just now he was distinctly
edging away from the window. His

in her kind, patient way:
Perhaps Buddy is worrying for fear

II wouldn't humor the boy that way,
il I were you, sister," said Buddy's
mother
'Oh, boys have their nervous whims,
just like US older Ones" replied tOler-
ant and indulgent Aunt Cordelia.
The good soul was right, and Buddy
made a confidant of her as they went
up the stairs.
"Aunt Cordelia, they'd all tease me
but you, and laugh at me, but saw a
ghost out of the window in the yard
"Oh, Buddy!' rallied his aunt.
'Yes, sir, twict !" asserted Buddy in
an awesome way.
Nonsense, Buddy! What particular
shape did this wandering spirit of
yours take?"
''He was an Esquimaux,' asserted
Buddy, solemnly. ''He had big bear
skin robe all over him. First he was
lodging behind the ice hut we built
yesterday. Next time I saw him at
the window. He had his face close to
the pane and he was looking in. He
was looking straight at you, oh, sure

"Dear mel'' futtered Aunt Cordelia,
with little shiver. She had no belief
in ghosts, but Buddy's grewsomeness
had begun to affect her. ''It was prob
ably some of your playmates dressed
I'D in the old buffalo robe your father
loaned you," she said. "Come, Buddy,
pop into bed now" and she placed the
lamp at the head of the stairs so that
it shed it's rays into Buddy's room.
Then Miss Cordelia went down the
hall and entered an old storeroom and
went to the window and looked out at
the snowhouse, and swept the garden
space with her glance.
"What foolish notions children
get" she murmured. ooh, coming in
here reminds me / must get another

Mr.. Porter carried the insensible
man on his shoulders into a vacant

incidental saver Of his property, and
probably of life, was seriously burned.
Buddy hurried on his clothes and ran
for a doctor.
1t was daylight when Aunt Cordelia
found the letter lying on the floor of
her room. She opened it to regard it's
contents with dilating eyes and
quickly paling face. A romance five
years dead, the details of which she
had never impaired to a single soul,
was revived with a strangeness and
force that made her sway to the point

which the Jews pour out their
hearts in prayer. The Christian sees
in the sepulchre a symbol of his
faith; the Muhammedan sees in the
glittering dome of his mosque a
sign of his power; the Jew beholds
in the Wall the emblem of his
tragedy.
But there is hope and there is
promise that the tragedy of the past
will soon make room for a really
heroic drama to unfold itself in the
future. Our ages-old prayer for the
restoration of Israel to his homeland,
has at last been heard, and is about
to be granted. Whether Jerusalem
will be the capital of the Jewish
State in Palestine or not, it will re-
main the worlds holy city, holy to
Christian and Muhammedan as we'll
as Jew. AS the worlds holy city,
as the very heart Of the old world
as the link of it's three continents,
what more natural than that in Jer-
usalem there shall be esta blished the
International Tribunal of Peace?
What more logical than that Jeru-
salem, the City of Peace, shall hold
within it's confines the worlds Tenn
pie of Peace? Then will, indeed, the
Law go forth from Zion and the
Word of God from Jerusalem.

Oerusalem), plays a part This
takes us back to about 1000 B. C.
Jerusalem has been fought over,
captured, partially or entirely de-
stroyed, and rebuilt more times
than any other city. David cap
tured it from the Jebusites, and
thenceforth it became the capital of
Israel. Solomon adorned it with
his magnificent buildings. AS the
capital of the southern Kingdom of
Judah it was besieged, stormed and
captured by the neighboring nations.
In $50 B. c. Nebuchadnezzar, King
of Babylon, laid seige to the city,
entered it, and turned temple and
palaces into ruins.
It was gradually rebuilt after the
return from Babylonian captivity.
The city was taken and partially
destroyed by Antiochus Ephiphanes,
and then recaptured by the Hasmon-
cans, and taken by Herod who re-
stored it's architectural splendors of
the time of Solomon. 1t was re-
duced to ruins by Titus, and after
the revolt of Bar Cochba, when
Hadrian had the plow drawn over
the Temple Mount, a Roman City
was erected on it's site.
In the time of Constantine the
Great Jerusalem became a Chris
tian city, but in GA the Persian
Chosroes II attacked and captured
Jerusalem, aided by large numbers
of Jews. Fifteen years later the
Byzantine Heraclius gained posses
sion of it, but in 637 Jerusalem sur
rendered to the Arabs led by Omar.
1t remained in Muhammedan pos
session until 1903 when the first
Crusaders captured it. It was re-
tanned by them until 1887, when

Saladin of Egypt wrested the city
from the Christians. 1t remained
under the dominion of the Egyp-
tan Khalifs until 1916 when the
sultan of Turkey, Salim I, incorpor-
ated it into his empire, from which
it was lately taken by the British
under General Allenby. These are
only the most outstanding events
and vicissitudes in the history of
Jerusalem. There were many more
of the same character but of minor
Importance.
Aside from the religious rivalries
that brought Jerusalem, especially
in it's later history, SO many changes
of masters, there is another fact to
be taken into account, and that is
the very favorable strategic position
that Jerusalem occupies. It is this
that has turned upon it the covetous
chances of the ancient conquerors. 1t
is a city built on hills, with deep
ravines around it, and when encir-
cled by wall, was almost impregna-
bic to the assaults of old-time war
fare. The wall around it is still it's
characteristic feature, and while it
adds no strength to it, it adds a
great deal to ist gloom, dinginess,
and squalor, for the city with
in the wall is typical oriental city
with all that it implies.
But in the midst of all the gloom
and squalor there stand three monu-
ments that attract the eyes and the
hearts of great part of civilized
humanity. There is the Church of
the Holy Sepulchre, the spot revered
by Christendop1; the Mosque of
Omar, one of TIL two sacred shrines
of the Muhammedan World and fl
nally, the Waiting Wall, before
