Experiments showed, he said, that
meat eating produced sterility. Eggs
to-day, he remarked, were not as heal

overtaxed with egg producing food, such

in his hospital care was taken that the
eggs used were laid by fowls which fed
naturally on grain or in the fields.

No doubt you would readily recognize
your features if you met them in the

and many times day, and probably
you can imagine how You look when YOU
think you study them with peculiar care
But that is just the point. Whenever
you see them you are studying them,
The expression is conscious, artificial u
the expression Of person who is being
watched and studied You know what
the photographers "look pleasant" pro-
duces. You know how you feel You are
aware that someone is observing YOU.
Think OF the expressions you catch on
others faces when they are completely
unconscious, not giving thought to how
they look. Some faces are sweet, kindly,
sympathetic, delightful. Some faces,
again, often the same faces, are sad,
anxious, dreary; others still are harsh.
bitter, angry or selfish. Remember that
all those expressions are likely te come
on your own face too. When You look in
the glass YOU do not find them there.
Your mere curiosity grasses them as a

But they come just the same.

By Vera L. Connolly

~ uT of this present war there has,
d SO far, resulted nothing more
thrilling, more inspiring, than the
founding-by Bohemia, Morava
Sovakia and part of Siesia-of the
Republic of Czecho-S ovakia. Only two
things, during ages of suffering and dis
heartenment, kept the Czech and Slav
peoples from losing all racial identity and
becoming Germanized; and these two things
were, first, the passionate loyalty of a cult
ured people to it's own traditions it's own
art and literature and language, it's dream
of freedom from Austria; and second.
the fact that this loyalty, instead of ending
in mere talk and vaporings, afforded
opportunity of expression
In 1862 DR.. Miroslav Tyrs, a Bohemian
patriot, realizing that love Of race must
take form in deeds or it will die; and per-
ceiving too that his people (denied an
army and mi-paralyzed by generations of
oppression) were becoming physically
torpid and fabby, thus rendering them
selves helpless even if their opportunity
for freedom ever came, threw himself into
the task of helping the Czech race to re-
cover and maintain it's former physical
hardihood so that it should not perish from
the earth
Choosing the falcon, or "Sokol"-for it's
keenness, agility and trained energy-as
the name and symbol for system of viii
lage gymnastic societies, Tyrs set about
founding these "Sokol" societies in, Prague.
Bohemia, in 1862 The idea appealed at
once; not only to the Czech race (the b.
hemans), but to all the Slav races as we'll;
since in every Slav tongue the word "Sokol"
meant the falcon: emblem Of alertness and
clean-cut vigor.
