In Pasquils' TESTS a book pub

told of knight who gave Christ
mas feast at which he entertained
his friends and the tenantry.
The host ordered no man at the
table to drink a drop It'll he that was
master over his wife should sing a
carol" A pause ensued and then one
poor male. more daring than the
others, timidly lifted his lonely voice.
The knight then turned to the ladies,
who sat at a table apart, and "bade
her who was master over her hus-

that forthwith "the women fell all

He custom of carol singing
out OF doors at Christmas

This is great pity, for
carols are branch of folk music, the
unconscious art of the peasant mind,
a heritage of inestimable worth.
In many English villages there are
carols peculiar to themselves, to be

The Christmas carol dates from the

angels having sung their carols at the

His ramble carried him far beyond
The spot where Rooms body was found
and where young Conley had come
upon the tethered horses. His eager,
curious gaze swept the forest to the
left Of the road In search Of Green
Fancy. Overcome by a rash, daring
impulse, he climbed over the stake
and rider fence and sauntered among
the big trees which so far had OBJ
scured the house from view. The trees
grew very thiekly on the slope, and
they were unusually large. He pro-
gressed deeper into the wood. At the
end of what must have been a mile
he halted. There was no sign Of habi-
tatlOn, No indication that man had
ever penetrated so far into the forest.
AS he was on the point of retracing
his steps toward the road his gaze
fell upon a huge moss-covered rock
less than hundred yards away. He
stared, and gradually ii began to take
on angles and planes and recesses of
the most astounding symmetry. I'm
der his widening gaze it was trans
formed into a substantial object Of
cubes and gables and-yes, windows.
He was looking upon the strange
home of the even stranger Mr.. Cur
tis-Green Fancy.
Now he understood why 1t was
called Green Fancy. Its surroundings
were no greener than itself; II seemed
to melt into the foliage, to become
part Of the natural landscape. Noun
tain ivy literally enveloped it. Ex-
posed sections of the house were paint
ed green; the doors were green; the
leafy pOrches and their columns, the
chimney pots, the window hangings-
all were the color Of the unchanging
forest. And 1t was place Of huge
dimensions, low and long and ram
bling.

manner of crank is he who would

American wounded were allowed to

statement is correct. But Governor
Allen implies what he does not

eral Traub convinced Congressman

these wounded over open fields
where exploding shells by the thous-

and not their detention in a place
of relative safety until they could
be removed under the protection OF

A Time of Violence

The world is rocking. The forces
of autocracy sowed the wind. and
reaped the whirlwind and the earth
quake too Europe is seethine with
turmoil. The strain of war has Un
hinged many minds. and led them
to brood on dark and violent acts.
Within one fateful week Premier
Clemenceau OF France was shot by
an anarchist. the Premier of Bavaria
was killed by an assassin, and the
Minister of the Interior of the same
country was shot while delivering
speech in the Bavarian legislative
body.
These are wild times. 1t be-
hooves the people of the world to
sit tight, to keep cool, to fix their
minds on the fundamentals of jus.
tice. to give the most serious atten.
tion to the problems of reorganiza-
tion after the war, and to look very
refully after the people of un.
sound minds.
1t is a time when the heads of
the governments should be very
carefully guarded. Many people
will feel that President Wilson took
too many chances when he con
sented to big public demOnstra.
tion like that given him in Boston.
There are too many loose minded
men floating around, and crowds
conceal their evil purposes too
easily.
The times are very like those
days in 1865 in the midst of which
Lincoln was Assassinated. There
are always weak minded fools like
Guitean and CzOlgOez floating about
their fanatical minds bent on deeds
of anarchy. 1t is time to take no
chances. and to throw every protec-
tion around the life of the head of
this government.
A President Of the United States
probably dislikes to take the pre-.
cs1tion that present conditions

feeling of constraint in being for.
