TO THE RESCUE!

ferocity of the dynamiters. There
is a reason.
For four years, points out the
editor of "Leslie's." the world has
been applying all its resources of
men, money and brains to devise
methods of construction. The taste
of blood has whetted the eager ap-
petite for more.
The bomb, dynamite and the
bludgeon have been popularized.
Every ingenuity of the most highly
educated men in the scientific world
has had for its first purpose the
invention of the deadliest weapons
to kill and of deadGest instru
mentalities to disable and destroy
the enemy and all his possessions.
II was a war of frightfulness un-
exampled in the annals of barbar-
ism. Suddenly the armistice was
signed. At once all the processes
of war were reversed. The killing
and manning were over. The de
struction of property ceased. The
maddened multitude was brought
face to face with the appalling re-
suits of its madness.
The frenzied outburst of joy
over the cessation of strife was fol-
lowed by sad and sober period of
reflection: Cities must be rebuilt
devastated lands reoccupied; the dis
abled and impoverished provided for.
These are our problems: How can
all this be done by nations bearing
an unparalleled load of debt, by
people taxed to the last extremity
with national treasures empty or on
the verge of bankruptcy?
Millions Of the best and bravest
have found a soldiers grave. Mil
ions more are helpless human hulks
Fertile farms are deserted, and vine
yards and orchards destroyed. Years
will be required for their restora,
ton and replacement.
Millions Of tons of shipping have
been sunk beneath the seas beyond
hope of recovery. Factories have
been swept away. mines deliberately
wrecked and made unavoidable fol
years.
Enmities and hatreds have beec
engendered among the nations thai
will give the lie for decades to come
to the boast of 1.-The brotherhood Of
man"
Four years of blood, rapine, slaugh
ter and destruction have left theil
blasting mark on all the world. Anc
now the scum of the seething cauld
ron is rising to the top. The refuse
of Europe is threatening to breal
down the barriers that give security
TO life and property.
Even the Church is assailed
Statesmen are in the discard. Ths
Bolshevistic ranters are not only OF
the barrel heads and the soap boxes
but in some pulpits, in the chairs o.
some universities and near the seat
of the mighty. The darkening shad
ows of Socialistic ideals hide tn;
blazing sun of truth.
The proudest, most domineerins
nation in the world was responsible
for the torch which set the worlt
afre. It is groveling at the feet O.
the victors, learning too late tbs
truth of the Biblical adage, "Al
they that take the sword shall perisl
with the sword"
The world faces the most seriou
problems it has ever had to solve

Too Many P's

When Clarence was six years
old. he was sent early one morning
70 Miss Pearson's store on an er.
rand.
Miss Pearson and her sick sister,
Catherine, lived alone together, and
they had no one to help them.
The ofetn asked Clarence to do
an errand for them, and he was al
ways happy to do it, for he liked to
be kind and useful. Miss Pearson
always thanked Clarence, and oft
en- gave him a stick of candy or an
orange out of her store.
On this Monday morning Miss
Pearson asked Clarence to take
little tin pail to her neighbor, Mrs.
Eliza Peck, and get pint of milk
Clarence took the pail and went
Whistling off. He was a very bash
full boy, so he thought he would
tell Mrs. Peck's little boy that he
wanted a pint of milk.
When he got to the house, he
could not see the little boy, so he
walked up to the kitchen door, and
knocked.
A tall woman opened the door.
Clarence hesitated little.
We'll, little boy, what do you
want?" said she.
Miss Pearson wants to know if
Mrs. Pint will give her a peck of
milk"
He saw Mrs. Peck laugh, so his
; face got real red. Then Mrs. Peck
said, She wants a pint of milk,
| doesn't she?"
Yes, maam," said Clarence, red
der than before, but greatly re-
| lieyed. He carried the milk to Miss
| Pearson and then ran home
to his mother with stick of
candy to tell his mother
what he tried to say, and what
a piece of work he made saying it,
and said he, Il hope l shall never
have to say anything again that has
| so many P's in it."
His mother thought it would be
a good plan for him to practice a
while in saying, Peter Piper picked
a peck of picked peppers, and a
peck of picked peppers Peter Pi
er licked. If Peter Piper picked a
peck of picked peppers where's
the peck of picked peppeds Peter
Piper picked?

Although the whole wide world

Although dark clouds gather in the

And life for you seems to loose it's

Try to look cheerful, don't frown

Though he whom you thought was

Forsakes you. Although joy seems

Think not of your troubles-do not
look blue; ~
Just make others happy, Don't
you see?"
Moan not DER your fate though
hard it may seem,

Don't ever look sad, do not sit and

Smiles are cheap, scatter them DER

Dolls Made of Dried Apples

1t was the quaint old weather
beaten faces of the mountaineers
that attracted her first, and by her
we mean Isabel Million, who lives
in Knoxville, Tennessee. The old
hardened mountaineers live there
too, and trade at her fathers store.
She wanted to draw them, or carve
them or picture them some way so
that people far away from Tonnes
see could see how odd and attrac-
tive they were.
She tried to make them out of
several things, but she couldn't find
anything that looked rough and
wrinkled enough for the faces of
the mountaineers.
One evening she was drying APP
pies for eating. Thinking of some
thing else, she played with some
of the pieces of apple. Picking up
one, she looked at it closely and
then gave a glad cry of surprise.
For the piece of dried apple she
had picked up looked like the face
of one of the mountaineers. She
picked up sharp knife and began
to cut. Now here and now there.
Soon her work was finished and
she held it away from her, study
ing it.
She was just "tickled to DEATH"
for at last she had found the ma
terial that looked exactly like the
face of the mountaineers.
Now she has become quite expert
as an artist in dried apples. She
cuts faces in them before they are
dried, and she does it real cleverly
too, always having some particular
mountaineer's face in mind. Then,
when they have been dried long
enough, she varnishes these heads
with a preservative, and that keeps
them just that way.
Lastly, she makes the cutest lit
tie costumes for them, full black
dresses with white kerchiefs at the
neck for the women, and overalls
and big old straw hats for the men,
and they are as ifelike as they can
be.
And all this is done out of COM
mon ordinary dried apples, and by
the clever ideas of girl who has
made herself extraordinary.

White Collie Herds
Reindeer in Alaska

You have read of herding cattle
on our western plains, but that is
play to herding reindeer in frozen
Alaska. The native Eskimo dogs
and Lapp dogs were tried out for
this purpose, but Their are more
like their wolves and the first
thing they wanted to do when they
had rounded up deer was to kill
it, which wasn't the idea at all.
Mr.. Gordon, a man who has
charge of the government herds of
reindeer, wasn't at all discouraged
by finding out that the beautiful,
swift footed Eskimo dogs could not
herd reindeer. He knew some dogs
that could. So he Immediately sent
to the States for a white collie, a
Scotch breed. He knew the Scotch
collies to, right in their native
home, for he had lived in Scotland
until he was sixteen years old.
The dog arrived at Point Barrow
in August, 1916, and didn't even
stop to rest, but right away began
to hunt up the reindeer. 1t fitted
in real well with the scenery of
Alaska, being white. 1t was the
safest color for the dog to be, too,
because it couldn't be sen very
easily. Most of the wild animals
in Alaska are white. Remember
the polar bears?
This year the Eskimos are call
ing for six or eight white collies,
for they know how well these dogs
herd the reindeer.
Many white collies are used as
mascots in the army and navy, too.
And, what do you think! They
have more honor than that. One OF
them is a mascot with the Rainbow
Division. Can you blame them for
being proud of their race?-Coun.
