Austraiia,s YOUNG Citizens.

The problem of destitute children
was recently considered by the emigra-
ton sectional committee of the Brit
ish national council of women at Cax-
ton hall. when Kingsley Fairbridge
described the work of the children's
farm schools in western Australia.
Mr.. Fairbridge, who is headmaster at
the schools. explained that the inSti-
tuition was started in 1909 by the
Child Emigration society, when a
party of destitute children was sent
out from England to Western Aus
tralia. The school dealt with the poor
est children they could find. In addi-
ton TO their education. which was sup
piled by the government of Western
Australia. they received instruction in
agriculture. and each child turned out
by the school was a new citizen for
Western Australia and a potential
farmer.

Were Worth 4 Little Spell
Of Hunger.

When in the winter Of 1917-1S, Cen
eral Allenby decided to wipe out the
Turkish army the next fall, he planned,
with the assistance OF Emir Feisal and
his Arabian troops, to take Nazareth
and Galilee. Feisal led a camel troop
Of two thousand men inland into the
desert in the late summer of 1918, says
a writer In the Red Cross Magazine.
There were heat and flies that few
white men could endure, and the way
led far north behind the Turkish army
that vas facing Allenby.
When they had cut the only railway
by which the Turkish armies down
below could get their supplies. and
had blown up bridges and long stretch
es of track, the Arabs fell back into
the desert to await Allenby's drive,
and there the Turkish airplanes found
them. Nine machines spent most of
their time over the huddled Feisal
army.
BY good luck. Colonel Lawrence,
reisalS adviser, an E~ngliShman whose
endurance proved equal to the hard
ships of the trip. had arranged that
General Allenby should send an air
plane for reports. and at the appoint
ed time he e out on camel to meet
the machine. 1t came, a speck in the
Sky at first, aud finally it landed and
q British officer stepped out.
You stay here" said Lawrence.
MY. servant will take care of you. l
must go to Allenby myself to ask him
for a%irplanes."
Before the officer could protest, Law
renee was off and in a few hours was
talking with Allenby.
I'VE must have airplanes." he told
the general. IF we don't stop those
Turkish planes our Arab army will
dissolve into the desert. The men say
they can't stand still and be killed
from the sky"
"All right" Allenby replied. "Ill
send three planes and a cargo of pc
troll to you in the morning. Day after
tomorrow I'm going to start my drive.
Keep the railroad broken until then"
Flying back to the waiting officer,
Lawrence took the good news to Feisal
In his tent. and at five o'clock the next
morning three big machines landed and
six hungry men clambered down to the
sand.
''First thing we'll do is have break

come out to meet them. But as they
hogan to unpack their food bags they
saw five Turkish machines coming for
their daily slaughter of Arabs and
camels.
"We finish breakfast after we get
those fellows" said the airlnen.
Within the next half hour Emir
Feisal and his Turks saw five Turkish
airplanes come tumbling down out of
the sky. The flying men then came
back to breakfast, but they had barely
got started again when two more Turk
ish machines appeared. Once more
they left their breakfast, and within
another half hour two more Turkish

Administration Attacked.
The governor criticised the fail
ure of the administration to take
advantage of the postwar eondi-
tions to capitalize on our merchant
marine and declared one of the
first undertakings of the republic
cans would be "to salvage what
they can of the colossal loss that
has been suffered through the in
efficiency Of the democratic ship
ping board"
To illustrate a point connected
with the discussion of President
Wilson's foreign policy, Governor
Coolidge told a story of the Greek
philosopher, Thales, who, when
wandering in the fields looking at
the stars fell into a pit. A peasant
woman passing by was asked to
pull him out and, womanlike, she
asked him how he had fallen in
there. He said he was examining
the stars. With a woman's wit she
replied: Foolish man, how canst
thou expect to know the stars If
thou dost not know what lies at
thy feet
Many centuries passed and an
other philosopher watching the
falling of an apple tried to under
stand the thing that had happened
at his feet, and discovered the law
which governed the stars.
The world has needed an Isaac
Newton and it has had Thales."

-FOUR POLLING PLACES
ARE LOCATED IN VEGAS

Especial Correspondence to The JOurnaD
Las Vegas, n. M, Oct. 29.-It is
understood that there will be four
polling places in East Las Vegas
for the coming state and national
election. East Las Vegas is one
precinct, but, for voting purposes,
it was divided into two polling
places in the 1918 election. The
coming of women to the ballot has
made it necessary to create addi-
tional voting places, and also to
provide for more speedy count.
In the old days when all the vot-
ing was done at the city hall, the
election judges and clerks some
times did not complete their work
for two or three days. On this Oc-
casion, the ''oting will be done in
each of the four wards. 1t is re-
ported that each political party,
fearful OF repeaters, will watch
each voting place closely to catch
anyone who may attempt to vote in
more than one ward.
