q. Are many American school
children corresponding with French
school children "A. NJ. w.
A. At the close OF the last school
year $4,000 American children who

spending with an equal number of
French and Belgian young people,

English language.
Q. Is it true that Bach first
taught the use OF the thumbs in
piano playing?-D. H.
A. The system of lingering on a
piano, which was customary in the
time of Bach, hardly yer employed
the thump and the little finger. and
was found to be inadequate for the
performance of the works of this
composer. He, therefore, formed for
himself a new system of lingering,
whose main principle was the equal
use and development of all fingers
and thereby laid the foundation for
the modern school.

REPUDIATING THE MIGHTY.

The people of Greece have simply followed in
he footsteps of the people Of other countries in
turning against the leaders who did the most for
them during the great World War. First it was
France that repudiated Clemenceau. the tiger
like premier who was the only man who could
rise to the occasion when the struggle was at its
height and hold France together. Here in
America President Wilson has been turned down
overwhelmingly. Now venizelos, the great
leader of Greece during the war-the man who
held the country on the side of the Allies and
thereby secured the successes she is now enjoy
ing, is defeated by the very people he worked so
hard to help.
only Lloyd George of Great Britain remains
of all the national figures during the war. He
policies from one side to the other over night
to win the support of those who may be upper
most at the time.
Here In America there was much CONSERVATION
and wonderment at the defeat of Clemenceau in
France. And we profess to be unable to under
stand why the Greeks should turn against Vent
zelos. But by an overwhelming majority we
turn against Wilson who is to this country exact
ly what Clemenceau and Venizelos have been TO
their respective countries. No doubt the people
of France and Greece also wonder at our attitude
toward President Wilson.
The only answer is the general reaction
throughout the world following the war: The
people are sick and tired of fighting; of high
taxes, extravagant living and everything else
that has featured the past four or five years.
They want a change. In their blind cropping for
this change everything that is in any way con-
nected with this past regime. good. bad and
Indifferent. has gone by the board.
Later on, when the notable events of the war
can be looked upon in a calm and impassionate
manner those who played the leading part in
those stirring times will receive the recognition
that is due them by a grateful people.

jaunty and dangerous clip, consider
ing it's enfeebled condition. On the
way you pass through part of the
fertile Salt Lake Valley n then
into an expanse of salt, where great
mounds of the mineral are stored
for shipment.
All the whirlagigs and dizzy drops
and other sensational apparatus pro-
vided by amusement parks are gath
cred together on a large concrete
pavilion at Saltair, surrounding
which is the lake. Roller coasters,
flying boats, shooting galleries, skat-
ing Kinks, old mills and a large
dance hall contribute to the din and
dizzy activity of the place. At II
end is the bathing beach, where part
Of the lake has been fenced in like
a huge square tank.
Bathing in the Great Salt Lake
is a curious experience, like no other
kind of bathing in he world. Where
as in most bodies of water it is q
constant struggle to keep afioat, in
the salt Lake it often requires a long
and arduous Struggle to go down.
Walking on the bottom is accom-
plished only with great skill and pa
thence. Your feet must be lifted
slowly and surreptitiousiy lest they
rise suddenly, NOT to return. You
head must be held far out of the
water, even while swimming to pre-
vent the salt from getting in your
eyes, but this does not cause your
body to sink. Nothing causes your
body to sink, except heroic effort;
1t is as il you were made of cork.
Most of the bathers float about
the lake in a sitting position, sag
ging downward in the middle, with
their heads and feet pointing up
ward. Occasionally, also, you see a
man lying Ilacidly in the water with
a lighted cigar in his mouth.
AS the water contains about TWEEN
ey-four per cent salt, it is extremely
stimulating and you are ravenous
ly hungry when you come out Hence
you can see that the Mormons do
not take advantage of all their bust
ness opportunities. for no restaurant
is operated in connection with Salt
air. But a large pavilion for pic
MICS is provided, filled with tables
and benches. and this is crowded ev-
cry evening with family parties, con-
tanning huge numbers of children.
Overhead is n of the largest dance
nails in h country with a beauti-
fui polished floor. From the west
windows of this hall you can loo
out across a wide expanse of lake
to the rugged cliffs of Antelope Is
land, and beyond that to the dis
tant horizon which at twilight
bursts into a mad riot of magnif-
cent colors like a gorgeous flag I'M
furled by the setting sun.
The atmosphere of the church
does not intrude itself at Saltair.
and many of the visitors who crowd
It's amusement facilities do not even
know that it is operated by a sect
that recognized the importance of
recreation long before there was a
Yong Mems Christian Association.
