Chancey, France, Dec. lG, 1918 Dear papa:
 As usual school life is bor- ing me, tho it isn't entirely my fault for every one is more or less bored at this affair. ln- structors don't like trying to tell a lot of front line officers how a machine gun nest should be taken when the officers have probably been up against the real thing several times and it's a chinch officers don't like to listen to theory. But it will soon be over, we expect to get away next Mon day or perhaps Sunday if the orders come out in time.
 Unless something unforeseen turns up 1 think I'll spend Xmas in Paris, on travel orders we are only supposed to stay there "A hours but of course there are ways of getting around that. Just now how ever President Wilson is mak- ing such a stir in gay Paris that the hotels can't accomO- date the crowds and for a city like Paris that's an awful big crowd.

 While out shopping a few days ago l found a little nov city that 1 had a pretty madamoiselle box up for me and l sent it to you for Xmas. The button is Boche, the shell American and the bullett is French, so you have three of the main parties in the late lamented war represented.

 Jesus is not there in body to per form the miracle of the loaves and fishes, nor to change the water into wine. The places where Christ press cd his feet are now abodes of dire distress. The stricken millions reach out their hands to America for the things that will save their lives.

Ar kansas is asked to contribute $15Q. 900 as her share of this fund. Pu' laski county will be expected to contribute s&0,000, or one-ffth of the total for the state. This countys quota is so small that it should be raised on the first day of the cam paign, which begins February and ends February 10.
 Thus this new and proud land of ours, with its inestimable resources, is asked to aid the stricken people of the land with the divine history. Christian Arkansas recalls the Sa- vior's teachings and will not withholt the support that will aid in saving millions of lives.

THE DYING EAST

The Land Where Christ Was Born, and Where His Miracles We're Per formed, Now the Scene of
 Untold Misery.

Get out the old school geography or the new atlas and look for Asia Mi nor. Look at the scale of the map and get some idea of it's size. There is the cradle of the race. There iS the home, the beginning place of tho great religions of the Western world. Judaism was revealed there and so place of the Moslem as well as the Jew and the Christian. Three great religions call it their Holy Land
 In the territory of Asia Minor, from the Black Sea to the Persian Gulf, the whitening bones of millions of men. women and children are bleach ing under the desert suns. It is a charnel house that is greater even than that smoking hell of the old Western front.
 These people died without a chance Never rife or machine gun was in their hands. Cut down by the Turks. deported from their native yil- laxes and driven across mountains and deserts, thrown into the sea and Arowned by thousands in the muddy rivers of West Asia, they died with out n chance for life.
 When an American traveller can ID a days travel count more than o.0OO Imutiiated corpses along roadway at Is evident that nowhere in the world has the great struggle taken heavier toll.

A certain series of maps that have made their appearance in many store windows, at postofices, railroad sta ttons, and in churches and school houses, is arousing in both old and young an interest in tho geography of khs oldest country of which most of us have not even a vague knowledge.
 This map contains hne at the top xaat reads as follows: Where mil Hons of human beings are starving WNstern Asia" This map does not be- w1n to tell the story alone The tel.s- Eraphio reports in your daily papers tell of the suffering and dying. The names that he became familiar with an childhood and that even now fill him with reverential awe when he gees them becokoning to him from the map.
 For 1t is the Holy Land that is shown so conspicuously in the very center of this modern chart. There appears Jerusalem, the magnificent city of David, the city around which the Bible is written. Directly north, and not far removed, is Nazareth where Jesus grew 10 manhood and be- gnn his work. Just a few miles southwest of Jerusalem is Bethlehem, where the angels rejoiced when He was born in the manager
 At other points on the map are shown Damascus, said to be the old est city in the world and Tarsus, where the Apostle Paul lived before he became Jesus most devoted fol lower.
 And, while the map with the fami- har names arouses memories of the Sabbath School and the lessons taught at mothers knee. one wonders why the map now in this twentieth century takes on new interest

 The American Committee for Relief of Armenia and Syria is raising s30.. 900, GOO to save them from utter de- strucfion. Every city and every county in the United States has D small quota to meet It Is fitting that the whole nation should help in this matter.

island of Rhegium-to-d day Reggie
Spartacus saw the Roman General
construct n great wall 1anked by a
deep trench, thus shutting him In and
completely cutting him of from all
hope of escape by the mainland. But
In spite OF this, taking advantage Of a
dark night when there was n thick
fog, the Spartacists. fighting like
Spartans. succeeded in breaking
through the wall, and yelling like
demons they poured through the open
ing: such was the terror Of the Roman
soldiers. n terror which amounted to a
superstition, they fed in all directions,
convinced that Spartacus was destined
10 reach and destroy Rome.
But Crassus followed close on his
heels. and the next day forced him TO
give battle, the last battle. In his ex-
tremity Spartacus once more showed
himself a great General However. he
had little hope OF winning against
such overwhelming numbers. Before
going into battle he killed his own
horse, saying: "If win will have
all the horses want, and II I am
vanquished will not have any more
need OF horses, and I will not let any
Roman General ride mine!"
He was beaten. and after the fright

tacus was found underneath heap of
dead which he had slain single handed.
Such was the ancient slave, brave
soldier, skilful General before whose
very name Rome tremblcd Tor two

last forced by public sentiment to do
so. The two consuls who coma
manded these redoubtable troops were
beaten in their turn. Then Rome itself
was seized with dismay and terror and
people began preparing to leave the
city and TO hide themselves In the
country in anticipation OF Rome itself
being taken by the Spartacists. The
worst was no one seemed willing to
hazard an effort to vanqutsh the
mighty monster that had risen up like
the mysterious serpents which had
destroyed the LAGOON and his sons at
the siege of Troy and which had grown
TO such formidable proportions in so
short a time.
However, Crassus, he who was one
of the future triumvirate with Cesar
and Pompey. presented himself. and

BY q series of clever manGuvres
Crassus compelled his adversary to
withdraw TO the extreme south OF
Italy, and thus the Spartacists were
shut in between the Roman army and
the deep sea. Spartacus. realizing his
desperate position. resolved on bold
move. He conceived the Idea OF trying
10 extricate his forces by throwing
them across the water on to the coast
Of tho island Of Sicily, where he hoped
to recruit his army with the slaves,
bandits and outlaws OF the island. In
this way he would be able to continue
the struggle which had become too
unequal on the mainland.
He struck a bargain with a band Of
sea pirates. who for a large sum paid
in advance agreed TO transport the
Spartacists to the island. But this
was where Spartacus proved himself

DR.. Kilmer has provided an agency
to physical study which is Of far
greater value than most of us realize,
and yet its potential applications touch
us where VIC are profoundly concerned.
Hastings, In his Manual for Physical
Measurements" says: THE value OF
physical examination during the period
OF youth and adolescence can hardly
be overestimated. 1t is valuable from
the hygienic point Of view, from the
pedagogical point Of view for a physi-
cal basis OF mental efficiency, and from
an anthropological and psychological
point OF view for basal facts as to
growth and development" Further he
emphasizes that "the body exists for
the mind, but not as separate from It

ings."
No wonder. then, that Hastings
urges that ANY obstruction to normal
physical growth should be removed.
With the increase OF vital strength and
normal physical function comes in
creased interest in things and power
OF attention. The stimulus of strong
physical life wakes up the whole
organism" Manifesuy the prompt and
repeated recourse to thorough physl-
cal examination may lead to bodily
soundness hundreds of thousands of
youngsters who otherwise might be-
come weddings through one neglected
physical cause or another. Heretofore
the stumbling block to the taking of
measurements and comparing them
with the subjects own subsequent
changes, or with a so-called standard
physical type, has been the number
and the character OF the tests en-
ployed. These have involved too much
work and have invited confusion. espe-
cially when the data had to be ana
lyzed by persons that had not taken
part in the examinations.
About a year ago the New York
Children's Year Committee began the
examining of children under years
and 1t was expected that through the
investigation It would DO possible to
save annually the lives Of nearly 5000
little ones. The activities Of the COM
