"rHE BIBLE IN COLLEGE"

Are there reactionary tendencies

with motion-picture making business

But the announcement will special

have deplored the passing Of
Greek and Latin If the classics will
help atone for the loss, where can
student gain such a command of his

the King James Bible? 1t has formed
the style of authors innumerable, it

There is no other such hand book for

YOUNG FOLKS, AIM HIGH

!
! Whitman reminds a doubling man
| hood that all things pass away-not
easily, but surely-for the individual
! whose strength is in his toll, his
brain, his hope. Not all ones power
and accomplishment in the world de-
pends u en- his toll Not all of it rests
on lis intellect. Likewise hope is not
everything.
He is prominently the successful
man whose whole physical system is
under the influence of his higher ia
culties and the highest intellectual
nourishment Of modern society is the
poem Or book or law written under re-
peated effort and failure. Changing
conditions of society are ever demand
ing more Of the young manhood of to-
day. The young man Of tomorrow
must be measured for what ne has
done and can do for the state and
community, and not for what the state
and nation can do for him. Men with
brains who toll in the sure hope of
reaching higher planes of usefulness
are the man on whom the character
Of nations and their civilization de-
pends.
Young man, young woman, have
you ever realized that the affairs Of
men are directed by men? Did you
ever ask yourself if The leaders of
men came from the ranks of real
men do in the world do your hopes
men di in the world, do your hopes
rise? Those who move the world rise
from the ranks. Their homes and sur
ronndings are no more promising
than yours. What makes the differ

Labor comes before syslematiZed
knowledge; intelligence before a cor
rest Interpretation of humanm destin-
les. John Ruskin's message to his age
was: Work if you would be strong;
read and think if you would be wise.
Upon individual effort, in spite of all
pholCsophies, must depend the well
fare of the individual Not that a man
is strong for the m ment, but that he
may last; nat that an individual is
merely intellectually great, but that
something may cminate from him.
these are the conditions. Genius is
work all bound up in the firm belief
the unwavering hope that in the road
to the future lies success. The man of
power and great influence, the man
of great good in life is that man who
at the start is willing to ask. Is there
something for me to dc? The fires of
genius burn never so brightly in the
sold as when it awakes to the fact
that it must develop and unfold in
the world just at the place where
lfe's duties are most pressing.
Wealth and luxury do not per
petate. No length Of years counts.
What is done in life, what is felt in
life means most. Power is to none but
the workers. There has been no man
of genius but was a man of industry,
and the valiant, manful being who
hears and obeys the call of the earth,
Come and till me, come and reap
me-" is he who counts most in the
administration of affairs. Nothing is
denied well-directed labor; nothing
can be had without it. By it ones own
fires of hope are lighted. Through it
comes a knowledge that God places !
the creature midst the world pro- |
blems and bids him live for Il full and |

NOW BUT MEMORY
CabaIIerOS of California Prac-
tiCaIIy Extinct.
Passed With the Disappearance Of tho
Wonderful Horses Which Were
Their Pride-Noted for Court
illness and Hospitality.

The persistent disappearance of the
horse from the life and labor of Cali
fornla, and the substitution Of the au-
tomobile and auto truck in its place,
must serve as a mental depression to
the old-timers. For there was a time
in California when the horse was not
only indispensable, but also the chief
ornament OF the country.
In the old days before the grlngo
came" and indeed for many year
after that, the horses of California
were both a wonder and delight.
They were the joy of the caballeros,
that is to say the Spanish gentlemen
Of California.
With the disappearance Of the horse
1t seems that the caballeros are also
disappearing. 1t Is high time that
Jackson A. Graves gives us his long
promised book, "The Passing of the
Dominant Race" book that no other
man is so well qualified to write.
The California horse was truly
wonderful creature--a cross between
the pure Arabian strain and the native
wild horse. 1t was on the backs of
such horses that band of Californians
under command of Gen. Andres Pico,
armed only with lances, defeated sig
nally troop of United States soldiers
under Gen. Stephen Watts Kenrny at
the battle of San Pasqual In San Diego
county.
The caballeros who bred and used
those horses were also a wonderful
class of men. The saddles and brides
they used were, nearly always very
beautiful and of great cost. They were
Ornamented with silver trapplngs, and
the spurs on the caballeros heels were
also of silver.
Courtly and hospitable were the ca
baleros. Their homes were like the
old feudal homes of Europe. Indian
and Mexican servants were there to do
ones least bidding and to anticipate
ones slightest desire.
But we never see them now except
when Los Angeles holds an all-too-in-
frequent fiesta. Then a few OF them
emerge from their obscurity, riding
down the shining highways Of the town
with memories of the happy days of
the past glowing like embers In their
dusky eyes.-Los Angeles Times.

Accustomed to besi pipes nf
wrought iron and steel for the sugar
mills, Cuban pipe layers are reported
to have applied their novel method to
castiron material. Through mistake,
the 10-inch castiron pipe for a water
main passing through a crooked two
mile canyon to the town of Present
was supplied only in straight lengths
II feet long, with a thickness Of shell
of 9-16 inch; and to avoid a long
wait for bent sections a cradle of the
desired curvature was built with old
rails, six or eight pipes at time were
placed on it. when hardwood fire so
heated the pipes that in about two
hours they bent and settled by their
own weight to the cradle. Bending
to various radli down to so feet is
stated to have been effected without
a single broken pipe.

schIeswio Rich Land.

Schleswig, the northern portion Of
the province, Schleswig-H -Holstein Of
Prussia, is adjacent to Denmark The
northern part of the former duchy is
peopled mainly by Danes. Excellent
harbors are on the eastern coast and
the agricultural land is there also. The
western coast consists of marshy but
fertile marine alluvium. Agriculture
is the chief occupation and much rye,
wheat, barley and hay are produced.
The province is famous for its excel
lent cattle, which are exported the
world over for breeding purposes. Man.
ufacturing industries are little devel.
oped. It's position relative to the Bal
tic sea and the North sea has increased
its commercial importance to a great
extent.

A burly and bristllng exemplar OF
German militarism, with captains
knots on his shoulders and an iron
cross on his chest, was included in a
bag of prisoners that some American
soldiers made just before the armis-
tice was signed. He was indignant, to
say the least, and his mood intensified
as he was marched back to the intel
llgence officer.
He had not heard the questioning
officer speak more than five words of
German before he burst into the con-
versation.
''DO you allow privates to call Off
GERS by their first names in this army?"
he demanded witheringly, according to
Stars and Stripes.
"Why? asked the officer.
"Well, this pig" said the Prussian,
"called me Heine every time he ad-
dressed me."-Youth's Companion.

Bearing the name of Julius Caesar.
a business man applied for divorce in
the Edinburgh (Scotland) court on the
ground of desertion by his wife.
He said they were married in Lon
don in 1895. His wife left him twice
once in 1898 and finally in 1900. The
differences between them were largely
due to tempersmental antagonism.
Petitioner took up residence in Scot
land IL years later. and she wrote
that after such a long separation she
could not return to him. Caesar was
granted g decree nisi.

MRS. FRANKLIN
Gains Twenty Pounds by Taking
Tanlac.
'.Simply Remarkable" Says Her
Husband.

The following statement of the re-
Ynarkable recovery of his wife after
she had taken Tanlac was made by
James B. Franklin of the Franklin
Transfer company, at his place OF busl-
ness, PIP West Thirteenth street, Kan
sas City, Mo, and who resides al
Eighty-Third street Terrace and
Brooklyn Ave. recently.
MY wife had suffered the worst
sort for two years with stomach trou-
BILE and nervous indigestion" he con-
tinued. "She had a very poor appe-
lite and could hardly eat a thing and
when she did manage to force down
little som ething, gas would form ana
press against her heart so she could
scarcely breathe. She would have the
worst sort of headaches and at times
would become so dizzy 1t was all she
could do to keep from falling She
also suffered with the worst sort of
pains across the small of her back
and became so weak and run down at
times she was unable to do her house
work and was SO nervous she could
sleep but very little.
she had taken a lot of different
Kinds of m Medicines, but none of them
did her a particle of good At last. roy
father, who had taken TanIac with
fine results, advised hert to try it. The
very first bottle gave her Eeliet. Her
appetite got better and she was not
troubled Win gas She coullAueu IAN
ing it untn she has taken five bottles,
and the change in her condition for
the better is simply remarkable. She
can eat anything she wants and enjoy
it and never has any bad after effects
She never has the headache or those
dizzy spells any more and can de all
her own homework with the greatest
ease. In fact, she is in better health
in every way than she has been for
years. and has gained twenty pounds
in weight. She sleeps we'll and gets
up in the mornings refreshed. After
what Tanlac has done for her it is a
pleasure for me to tell others about
it."
TanIac. is sold in Topeka by Tully-
Mcfarland Drug Co., S35 Kansas Ave.
and 729 Kansas Ave.-Adv.

Polish Action Causes
End to Negotiations
Report of Interallied Commits
sion acknowledgements
Stop Executions.

Berlin, Aug. 22.-(A. PAN inter-
allied mission will leave this city for
Upper Silesia within twenty -four
hours and the Polish commission
which has been comforting with Ger
man government officials will return
to Warsaw and make a report. This
new development was the outcome
OF precipitate action by the Poles,
who on Wednesday interrupted ne
gotiations with Germany, claiming
the Upper Silesian situation was
such that further deliberations were
impossible. II was evident that this
action came as a surprise to the en-
tente representatives here. Gen. Du-
Pont. commander Of the interallied
commission, expressed the view that
the German government had sole au-
thority at present in Upper Silesia.
1t Is not expected negotiations with
the Poles will be resumed until after
the tnterallied commission has re-
ported and its feelings are expressed
as final until questions involved in
the occupation Of Upper Silesia, as
well as other disputes. are settled by
a pleblscite. In the meantime the
German government has agreed to
moderate military measures now be
ing enforced in the region and to
discontinue executions
