RULE OF SWORD
German Editor Says 1t Is Now Over

Berne, Oct. Macmillan Har-
den, editor of the Berlin newspaper
Die Zunkunft, whose organ has been
suppressed several times for its dem
ocratic tendencies and its consistent
opposition to Prussian militarism,
speaking before an audience of
thousand persons in the Philhar-
monte Hall at Berlin, said:
"The rule and Proclamation of
militarism in Germany has now fin
ished forever. Germany is now ma
ture for league of nations. The
result of the war will be world sta
tutes amogst free peoples, giving all
the same rights. All the great states
have passed through a great crisis,
from which the world will appear
with an entirely changed face"

INTERN ATIONAL EX-
POSITION JAN. Is
Uruguay Will Hold Big Cattle and
Agricultural Show

Montevideo, Sept. %, (Correspon-
dence of The Associated Press)-
There have been several evidences
during the last year Of the develop
ment of closer relationship among
the South American republics as a
result of the economic conditions that
have grown out of the war. Before
the war, each South American repub-
lie dealt directly with the United
States and European countries and
paid little attention to its neighbors
in commercial way. This has all
been changed and these republics are
now finding that they can supply each
other with goods in exchange for
/ things they need.
The latest effort in this direction is
the organization of South American
International Exposition which is to
be opened in this city on January rs
for the display of cattle, agricultural
and industrial exhibitions. Each
South American republic has been
asked to send exhibits and also to APP
point a jury to form part of the gen
eral jury of awards.
The exhibits of cattle and agricul-
ture will include machinery and i'm
plements used in connection with cat
tie raising and farming in each OF
the countries and the industrial ex-
hibits have been planned so as to in
clude everything that is manufactur.
ed in South America.
The Committee of Honor will in
clude the President of Uruguay, the
members Of the cabinet, the presi
dents of the senate and deputies, the
president of the supreme court anC
the diplomatic representative of the
countries which send exhibits.

New York, Oct. 16-Protest against
legally extending the summer day
light act into winter by keeping the
clock ahead one hour all year was
made by Marcus NJ. Marks, president
of the National & New York Daylight
Saving Association, in a statement
here today.
Declaring that if the clock was not
set back in winter, when the sun ris-
es late, it would compel persons to
go to work in the dark, would be
Gas illogical as wearing a linen coat
in winter" and would "throw US out
of harmony with European coun-
tries" Mr.. Marks said:
"The Senate passed the winter
daylight saving act without discus
sion and without hearing-a leap in
to the dark without a word. Let US
hope the House of Representatives
will not force the people to try to
save daylight before daylight"

IN THE SOUTH SEAS
If You Are Going There to Live You
Must Work for Your Living

Papeete, Tahiti, Sept. ILL., Cores
pondence of The Associated Press)-
Living conditions in the South Seas
are quite the opposite to the popular
idea conveyed in books of romance
and adventure. Instead of being able
to loll under the shade of palms and
having the fruits thereof drop into
ones mouth, the daily needs only are
obtainable through the medium of
hard toll. Living, if one desires to
live according to the standards of
the white man, is as expensive as in
any other part of the world.
According to those who have lived
here for some time, 'it is the last
place in the world for man without
capital to come" Consular officers
have a regular form warning all in
quiries against attempting to settle
here unless provided with ample
funds as there but few opportuni-
ties for o5taining employment.

Sacrificing Naturalist

Pittsburg, Oct. ia monument of
snakes, probably the most unique ever
raised, is being made at the Carnegie
Museum here, and when complete, the
memorial will occupy a glass case

lecturing on the topic of serpents be-
fore a class Of Carnegie Institute of
| Technology students. He held in his
hand a rattle-snake. At the close of
the lecture Mr.. Link replaced the
snake in a glass case and few
moments later a student called his
attention to a spot of blood on the
end of one of his fingers. Early the
next morning Mr.. Link died.

employed, has brought from the Isle
Of Pines tree in the branches of
which a boa constructor will be twin
ed, with iguanas, the common lizards
of tropical America, as companions.
