The Golden Temple.
BIZ NIKSAH.

In the heart Of Amristar, the sacred
city of the S:khs, the Golden Temple
rises from the center Of crystal pool.
From thi.; pool the city derives it's
name. 1t is the Amrita Turas, the
Pool of Immortality. The temple is
a fairy palace, thing of gold, cop
per, sandalwood, and marble, shining
gloriolsly IN the sun and reflected in
elusive shadows in the water below
it. 1t is the most holy spot in the
holy city, and the most beautiful All
about the pool are marble pavements
bordering the palaces of the Sikh
princes and chiefs. To reach the
domeI temple, a bridge of marble
with carved ratings and gilded lamps
must be crossed. But before the
stranger or worshipper can approach,
he must replace his shoes with soft
slippers furnished by a guard, for he
is entering upon holy ground.
In the temple hall an old priest
reads solemnly from the Granth, the
book of the Sikh religion. The gold
and jewel bound copy rests before
him on a taboret. He touches it sell
dom, and then with the utmost rever-
enCe. Worshippers and pilgrims ap-
proach cloth, spread to receive their
off. rings, and drop flowers. money
or rice upon it; then back ceremo-

touch their heads to the door sill be-
fore they turn and depart. The low
thunder of tom-toms and the wailing
| of Indian guitars blend with the chant
| of a responsive service between priests
and laymen.
Above, inside the gilded dome, is
an ,tter hall. the importance of
which is shown by sweeping it only
with peacock feather fans, especially
made for that purpose. There are no
goes in the Sikh temple. Their creed
was evolved in protest against the
Hindoo gods of wood and stone. In

HELPING OUT THE RAILROADS

There are multiplying signs that
America is awakening to some OF the
possibilities that lie in her system OF
improved and projected highways and
the several hundred thousand private
ly owned motor trucks In the United
States. The return load system is be-
ing worked out as one of several plans
for increasing transportation facilities
There is no need to dwell On the
pressing necessity for more and better
transportation. The winters fuel sit
uation brought directly home to every
body the fact that the railroads, which
have been the pride of America, are
UNEQUAL to the increased burden i'm
posed on them by the feverish activi-
ties of industry and commerce, slim
ulated by the war. Merchants, manu-
facturers, miners, and farmers have all
suffered annoyances, anxieties, and
losses-due to freight and express en-
bargoes, shipping delays, and total in
ability at times to get freight cars dur
ing the last three years.
While the return-load plan is a new
method of utilizing motor trucks and
nothing new in the idea of hauling by
motor between cities fifty to one hun
dred miles apart. Long distance NOV
ing by motor van is a part of the
everyday business of the storage
warehouse and van companies 1t is
quicker. cheaper, and more satisfac-
tory for the householder to have his
household goods transferred from
Kansas City to Topeka by motor van
than by rail. This is readily under
stood when it is realized that the trip
can be made in a day, that no Grating
is necessary, and that there are only
two landings
Turnout the United States there are
hundreds of motor express companies
| operating regularly in inter-city ser
vice. One such company operates a
fleet of thirty-two trucks on a daily
schedule between New York and Phil
adeiphia-a distance of more than one
hundred miles. During the past win
ter one was organized to operate be-
tween Detroit and Toledo, sixty miles
and another between Chicago, Wauke-
gan. Ill, and Gary. Indiana.
The Philadelphia company, in ad-
dition to its regular New York service
undertakes hauling to Pittsburg, tc
Baltimore. and Washington, and tc
cities in New England. The value Of
such highway freightins service, say:

appreciated until an emergency arises
Innumerable instances have proved
that 1t is sometimes the only way O
making a shipment within the neees
sary time.

Greece is reported to have a well
equipped army of 100000 men on the
Macedonian front and a half million
more trained men who are waiting for
equipment which France is expected
10 supply. The supplying of these
men probably has been delayed by the
more imperative necessity of furnish
ing arms and ammunition to PERISH
fng's men. The Macedonian army OF
the allies is said to number approx
mately 1000, 900 men and the military
plans of the commanders contemplate
cutting thru Bulgaria and isolating

Buying a liberty bond isn't a matter
of compulsion; it is matter of choice.
There is no law which compels one to
invest in Uncle Sans war securities.
No adjuster to come around and see
that he has purchased his quota. No

duty to your country. There is no
Consumption of your collars. No ques-

Stacker if you will. But ultimately
your sins may find you out. For if
Uncle Sam be unable to meet his
financial needs thru bond sales he will
dip into your pockets by the more
direct and certain method of taxation.
