As the Mohammedan year is a lunar

the faithful when the month happens
to fall in the hot days of summer. The
sick, travellers and soldiers i'm time of

feast of Beiram, which was established

been guided by the Christian. instftu
ton of Lent, which in the early church
varied from four to six weeks. On this
day every family of the true believers
offers sheep to God, and the streets
of the cities are filled with men carry

FOUGHT THE FLOWING BOWL
Eastern Monarchs and Religious Lead.
ers Long Ago Lifted Their Voices
Against Drunkenness.

Temperance movements and prohibi-
tion crusades date back at least 5000
years. 1t was China that first tried
TO be bone-dry. Early. reforms along
temperance lines are attributed to the
priests of India and Persia. But the
Chinese claim that in the eleventh CEN
fury before Christ their emperor. so
disgusted over the prevalence of drunk
enness. ordered all the grapevines in
the kingdom uprooted.
A hundred years before this bone
dry effort. in the twelfth century be-
fore Christ. King Wen tried partial re-
form in China. Wen. founder of the
Chou dynasty. promulgated an "An-
nouncement Against Drunkenness" ac-
cording to ancient Chinese documents
handed down by Confucius.
King Wen declared drinking has
long been a national vice" He or
dered that wine he used only in con-
necti0n with sacrifices-and even then
drunkenness was not to be tolerated.
The temperance ereforms also ex-
listed in Egypt centuries before Christ
Here's what teacher said to youth
who had been looking upon the flowing
bowl too freely:
'Drink not beer to excess. The
words that come out of thy mouth
thou canst not recall Thou,dost fan
and break thy limbs and no one
reaches out hand to thee. Thy
comrades go on drinking; they stand
up and say: Away with this, fellow
who Is drunk If anyone should then
seek thee to, ask counsel of thee. thou
wouldst be found lying in the dust
like little child"

Life,s Master-key.

Life's master-key is personal pos
session. It's yours TO use. It's your
estimate of yourself plus sufficient
initiative to bring ideals to pass.
You're bound to be questioned and
discounted at every turn. Others have
the same mental concept of their
worth as you do. It's your job, to
show them who. is. most fit. No, you
needn't begin that old quarrel about
the survival of the fittest. Life knows
mercy as, literature more than it does
of conduct. Natures laws are just,
impartial and irrevocahle. They know
neither sex nor social position. He
who by instinct works with them wins,
he who does the opposite fails. When
opportunity steps into view you must
grasp the forelock or join the great
army of those who spend the time in
regrets and those who sigh. ''if I, had
only known"
