Q. what Is the difference between
a disciple and an apostle Of Christ
F. s. d.
A. The Il disciples Of Christ were
the men chosen by him as his inti-
mate associates during the three
years Of his ministry. He then made
them apostles to preach the gospel
and they in turn appointed others;
and yet others became apostles of
their own volition- Paul and Barna-
oas, for example were apostles and
not disciples.
O. Does the government still need
typists and stenOErapherss A. 5. B.
A Yes There is a call for typists
and stenographers, under civil serv-
ice, in the departments at Washing
ton, as many war time clerks have
returned to their homes.
@ What is meant by @runesSs ".
A Fumes" were the letters OF the
alphabet used by the old TeutOnic
tribes. The word means hidden lore.
The earliest runes were merely fancf-
ful signs supposed TO possess myster-
ious power. The letters were even
considered magical, and were cast
into the air, written separately upon
chips, to fall as fate determined on
a cloth and to be read by the in
terpreters. The. association OF the
runic letters with heather superstf-
tons caused the first Christian
teachers TO discourage their use.
O. l. IN army corps larger thnn
division NV. W. NJ
A Yes. There were three Ameri-
can armiei in Europe, each composed
OF one or more army corps. In turn
each army corps contained two or
three divisions. The STANDARD divi-
sion A z. F. had 1880 men. but the
number OF men in a division is not
fixed.

Depriving Germany Of Ore

In view Of the fact that marshal FOch lately declared

should not sign because she is not to obtain that part Of

It has been pointed out however that possession of the
Rhine bank would not safeguard France against attack
