MERELY COUSINS OF CHRIST
Explanation Of Biblical Passages That
Seem to Say the Redeemer Had
Brothers and Sisters.

To Judge from the passages Matthew
~ "A, 46; :55, So; Luke 7:19; St.
John 7:3, 8. 10. Christ undoubtedly had
brothers and sisters. These passages,
are, however, contradicted by Others
from which we learn that the pretend
ed brothers of Christ were only his
cousins. Thus, according to Luke
6:15, and John 10 :25. James was the
son of one Alpheus, or Cleophas, and
Mary, the Virgins sister. From Mat
thew 81 :55. and Mark Is 40. we learn
that Joses, or Joseph. was James
brother, and -, according to Luke
8:16, was also Jude. In other pas
sages the fourth pretended brother Of
Christ is designated by the Jews as
the brother of James, Jude and Joses.
1t is also claimed, In explanation Of
this theological puzzle, that the Jews
were wont to apply the term brother
to cousins. to relatives In collateral
line. and even to mere friends (Gene-
sis IL 1920. The view that the
aforementioned personages were but
Christ's cousins, and not his brothers.

NO OUTWARD SIGN OF GRIEF
Dumb Agony Of cossaek Woman, TAX.
ing Leave Of Mate, More lmpres-
sive Than Flow Of Tears.

1t was the square Of Yurievets (on
the VOlga) that one Of those tragic
fragments which life casts up like
driftwOOd was flung ut our feet. A
Cossack's leave-taking Of his mate;
that was all, a million times repeated
In million different izbas, In that one
summer. But 1t was more-symbol of
woman's ancient and inarticulate grief.
These shawled and booted women Of
the North are too burdened with
earth's sorrow to weep; they are like
dumb cattle In their woe. The soldier
himself was openly wiping his eyes on
his coarse, dusty, brown sleeve, while
under both arms he clutched absurdly
two enormous loaves of black bread.
A dingy little child in Its mothers arms
fluttered uncomprehending hands in
the direction Of the steamer; but from
the Mongol-cheeked, gray-eyed woman
there was no sign.
She neither touched her man In fare
well, nor offered any of those small
caresses by which we seek to mitigate
our grief. The sullen silence Of the
North had laid It's finger upon her,
but her eyes followed her mate with
the wild. unreasonable grief of the
forest sprung. She stood still star
ing, unaware Of the baby In her arms.
while the steamer moved slowly out
into the gray mists. Long after dusk
had closed down. could see her face
straining In the cleaning like a mask
Of despair.-Olive Gilbreath In the

DOCTORS GATHER
IN WASHINGTON

WASHINGTON, July i9.-The Govern
ment is about to assume control OF
tho entire medical profession in the
United states. The purpose is to OBJ
tain sufficient doctors. for the fast
growing army and to distribute those
remaining TO the localities or service
where they are most needed for civilian
work.
This mobilization IS to be accom-
plished either by enrolling all doctors
in volunteer service corps under
pledge to accept whatever service, mill
ftary or civilian, is assigned them Dy
the governing body Of the corps or
by legislation providing for drafting
them into Government service. Medical
officers of the Government believe COM
pulsory conscriptlOn VIII not be neces-
sary.
Organization plans for the volunteer
medical service corps already have been
made. Enrolment was started in a
few States under authority Of the
Council Of National Defense. Instead
Of enrolling In tlfis corps only those
physicians not suitable for military
service, as planned at present, the Gov
ernment is expected shortly 10 throw
open membership TO all doctors and to
bind them with a pledge during the
present emergency to accept service,
military or civilian, wherever. when
ever and for whotever duty they may
be called by the central governing
board"
Under this projected plan the army
and navy would take those physicians
and surgeons best fltted for active duty
and who can be spared from civilian
requirements. At the same time the
Government would maintain a cOntinu-
Gus survey OF the country and assign
doctors TO those communities in which
there are too few practitioners.
Conferences Of doctors were held yes
terday in Washington and a number Of
other cities to discuss the operation
Of the voluntary enrolment plan. A
Of army and navy surgeons
also completed recommendations for
inclusion In the volunteer medical SER
vice corps all doctors, instead OF only
those disqualified for military services
