PLAN EXCHANGE
OF US. STUDENTS

of the dominance of German learning

the fact that an interchange of stu

en- has been arranged by the American
Scandinavian foundation of New York.
According to plans of this organi-
zation for the next academic year ten
young Americans will go to Sweden
for chronological study of an advanced
nature and ten Swedish students will
come to the universities here.
The ten Americans, to receive 81 1000
each as fellows of the American Scan
dinayian foundation for 1919-20 have
been chosen for the foundation by a
committee Of technical experts and
professors. The men appointed are
Samuel G. Frantz of Princeton, N. J.,
Princeton university; Harry F. Yancy
of urbapa, H., University of Missouri ;
Chester G. Stewart of Wilmington
Del, Massachusetts Institute of Tech.

Every Saturday


swear that Belle has tried to cheat
them and warn her that sne shall be
punished. There is a fight. Jack
and Belle break away and fly from
the Sea Caves where the Hindus are
hiding.
Belle and Jack are chased across
the country till they reach tbs rail
road. Here they see a train OF empty
old tanks standing on siding. To
one about. Jack sees that the Hin
dus are so close upon them that it
will be necessary for him to hold them
off until Belle herself can escape. He
bids her run to the oil tank train and
hide in one of the oil tanks.
While Jack holds back the Hindus
Belle runs to one of the empty oil
tank cars and climbs through the
man hole of the tank. Meantime the
Hindus lcck Jack in a section house.
A certain Hindu has followed Belle.
AS she now peers cautiously out of
the man-hole of the tank to see if
the coast is clear, the Hindu who
followed her, climbs up on the op-
posite side of the tank behind her
and hits her a sudden blow on the
head with the lid of the man-hole.
The blow strikes Belle unconscious
and she falls to the bottom of the
tank The Hindu then claps the
lid on the tank-thus shutting Belle
in an aritight tank filled with the
fumes of oil. And the train starts.
Jack escapes from the section
house-sees the oil tank train speed
ing rapidly away in the distance. He
knows that Belle is in one of the
tanks. How can he save her? He
meets a track walker and asks where
that oil train is bound for. The
track walker tells him the train is
bound for the oil reservoir, a station
a few miles distant where the tank
cars will be, filled with oil. Jack is
desperate. He starts running up
the track in the hope of discovering
some means of transporting him
quickly to the oil reservoir.
Meantime, the oil train arrives at
the oil reservoir and stops. The man
hole of the tank in which Belle lies
is opened and workmen
begin filling the tank with oil. The
oil swirIs around Belle, rapidly rising
to point at which the unconscious
girl will be drowned

THE FALSE IDOL.
THE CAST.

/ Hilda -.-.-.-...-...---...-...Ea Easter Walters
In the bandit Shotwell's mountain
retreat from which the posse headed
by the hero, has just chased the ban
dts, Belle and Hilda are fighting for
the Tiger Idol which stands on the
chimney piece. Belle takes the Idol
and automatically releases spring
that fires a gun. This dastardly con-
trivance was rigged by Shotwell as
trap. The shot hits Hilda-a
wound in the arm. Belle feeling re-
sponsible for Hilda's wound, takes
her to her ranch and nurses her.
Meantime there is battle between
the posse and the bandits. Shotwell
gets a land min9 and detonator and
blows up a bridge just as the posse
is crossing in pursuit of the bandits.
Jack then follows one of the ban
dts along to the edge of tremen-
dous precipice where they have ter
rife fight. Just as it looks as if Jack
will surely be pitched over the pre-
cipice by the bandit, the wounded
Dashaway Davis, who has staggered
across country to come to Jacks help,
fires a shot that finishes the bandit
by sending him pitching headlong
over the precipice and down into the
Great Abyss Jack then carries
Dashaway to the ranch house where
Belle nurses his wounds.
That night Randolph Gordon, who
has a one-third interest in the "Pact
of Three and wishes to obtain the
Idol in order to exchange it for the
pact of Three" held by the Tiger
Face and then destroy the Pact,
comes to the ranch house. He plots
with Hilda and they discover that
Belle means to hide the Idol that
night in Dashaway's room Randolph
binds Dashaway and hides him in a
closet. Then Randolph takes Dash
away's place in The bed with his head
bandaged just like Dashaway's. When
lack comes into this room to hide the
Idol, he has not the heart to awaken
Da. haway, and therefore leaves the
room with the Idol and gets Belle
to hide the Idol in the room of Paul
inc Holiday, house guest.
Randolph watches and sees where
Belle hides the Idol. Randolph then
1teal9 into Pauline's room and gets
the Idol, terrifying the girl. Pauline
screams. The house is alarmed
Randolph, still wearing the bandage,
is chased. He is overtaken by Belle
who, seeing the bandage on his head
in the dark, mistakes him for Dash
away Davis. Grieved at finding as
she belives, that the man who has
many times saved her life, has now
proved disloyal, all on account of the
detested Idol. Belle tells him that,
if he will give her the Idol, she will
never reveal to her friends the fact
that he turned traitor. To her as
tonishment, Randolph fights for the
Idol But Belle succeeds in getting
it. And Randolph makes his escape.
Belle now feels that at last she
will obtain freedom from persecution
at the hands of Tiger Face and the
Tiger Worshipers, as she can now
take the Tiger Idol to the Hindus and
obtain in exchange the "Pact of
Three" Next morning, accordingly,
Belle and Jack take the Idol to the
Hindus to exchange it for the "Pact
of Three" But to their dismay, they
learn from Hindus that the Idol is
a fake. Shotwell had made this
fake Idol, as he was not fool enough
to leave the genuine Idol where his
enemies could get it, So the H;ndus
