The experience of three, young, red

America to develop mine where, I'M

ures in revolution inaugurated by a
bandit army officer, supplies material
for an intensely interesting film story.
When this is linked with an appeal
ing romance the combination provides
strong, dramatic picture-punctuat-
ed with humor, bristling with patriotic
incidents and with action from start

speeding to the rescue of endangered
citizens of the United States, a hydro
plane succoring a presidents wife, a
battle in which twenty-five hundred
men are engaged are some of the ex.
citing scenes. A strong light is
thrown on the methods and purposes

 CHURCH-GOING

l. In this actual world, a church community, a community where men have abandoned and scoffed at or ig- nored their religious needs, is a con- munity on the rapid decline.
 2. Church work and church attend ance mean the cultivation of the habit of feeling some responsibility for oth- CTS.
 8. There are enough holidays for most of us Sundays differ from other holidays in the fact that there are fifty-two of them every year. There fore, on Sundays go to church.
 4. Yes, know all the excuses. l know that a man can worship his Gre ator in a grove of trees or by run ming brook or in a mans house, just as we'll as in the church. But l also know as a matter of cold fact that the average man does not thus worship.
 5. He will listen to and take part in reading some beautiful passage from the Bible. And, if he is not familiar with the Bible, he has suffered loss.
 6. He will meet and speak to his neighbors He will come away feel ing more kindly to the world, even toward those excessively foolish young people who regard church-going as a soft performance.
 7. I advocate a mans joining in church work for the sake of showing his faith by his works.

PRINCEOF WALES DOES LITTLE
 COAL MINING

LONDON, July 1 Correspondence of the Associated Press) ).-Children strewed with flowers the path of the prince of Wales and bombarded dhis automobile with roses when he visited recently the coal mining section of South Wales and went down into a mine. The prince scored with the coal miners of Rhondda valley by telling them that ir was not his fault that it was his first visit, and that his ah sence was due to the war.
 O1l his way to the mine he sur prised one woman by asking t0 see her house and garden. He stopped his car when another woman held up her baby to give him rose.
 Arriving at Cwymmer pit, the prince donned the cap and overalls of miner, and gratefully accepted from the foreman a silver safety lamp, the gift of the management. Miners and their families crowded around him and cheered while the prince waited for the cage to rise from the depths of the shaft.
 Suddenly there was head the sound of singing, apparently from the bow els of the earth. The cage came in view, bringing a small party of min CTS, black with coal dust, straight from the toll of the pit, and singing Welsh anthem.
 When the singing stopped the prince and his official guides stepped into the cage and swiftly but very carefully were lowered into the mine.
 At the bottom of the shaft some one had written on a bank timber with white chalk, Welcome to Our Soldier Prince" The prince was manifestly pleased, and asking for chalk, wrote beside it, Thank you," and signed it Edward P"
 Then they took him through the mines, showed him the ventilation system which guards the lives of the hundreds of men and boys while they work, showed him the working faces" where the miners were dig ging coal, and explained to him some of the difficulties attending the under ground life of the toilers.
 He insisted on trying it himself, and taking the pick handed to him by a grimy old miner, struck a few wig orous blows. Later, while thanking the people for his reception, he said he could appreciate the strenuous character of a miners work.

GERMANS ARE AFTER
 TRADE OF MEXLCANS

COBLENZ, June 28 Correspondence of Associated Press) The eyes of the commercial world of Germany are di- rected toward Mexico, according to German newspapers of recent date.
 With reference to Germany's pros pective trade with Mexico, the Ger man Anzeiger which is devoted to the chemical industry, says: "In Munich there was formed in 1918 a German Mexican society composed of educated people. The purpose of this society is to disseminate information about Mexico, lend impetus to the study of Spanish, bring about the teaching of the German language and German kul- tur in Mexican schools; induce Mexi- can salesmen to visit Germany, and induce Mexican youths to attend Ger man universities. Tn March, 1919, a similar society was organized in Ba- varia with charter membership If 200 persons.
 ''In Renthingen there has been in- corporated the 'Almeco,' founded by industrial firms, the purpose of the organization being to facilitate ex, change of raw products and other cOnl- mOdities between the two countries.
 "Seventy-fve per cent of Mexico's exports found their way to the United States, which regards Mexico as it's warehouse. Of course those exports will now go to Germany. Our first duty is to secure from Mexico large imports of raw material and not re- gard it as dumping ground for Ger man goods"

PROT, Serbia, June 15 (by maiD. Kerosene distributed with other re- lief supplies by Red Cross agents here was received as if it were gold. A short time before the mayor of Pirot had paid $110 for a five-gallon can of the precious liquid. During the en- tire Bulgarian occupation the inhabit- ants of this district had no lights in their homes after sundOwn.
 Bread had been selling at 50 cents a pound, and the poor, unable to pay such price, were living on corn meal and oats. Now, with the arrival of tons of American flour and carloads of other supplies, the situation is much relieved.
 Dozens of children have been found in abandoned houses living on the charity of neighbors. Mothers are ready to give up their children to any one who will give them food and shel- ter. There are thousands of orphans with no one to care for them. The number of widows is distressingly large.
 The famous rug-making industry here is at a standstill, but the Ameri- cans are trying to re-establish the peasants at their old trade. As the Bulgarians took all the machinery, metal and tools of any value, the work CTS in mechanical trades now are with out implements.
