STOLE CHURCH BELL.

At time when such a large per
centage of French criminals are spe-
cializing in thefts Of jewelry, pock-
.etbooks and the more easily portable
Injuries of life, it is almost re-
freshing to hear Of such originality
as was shown by the rufians who
devoted their attention to stealing 4
church bell weighing one and . hall
tons. One night recently a cOnsid-
erablG force of motor bandits en-
tered the ruins Of Essars church
near, Lille, and succeeded in hauling
ont a huge bell and placing it upon
their lOrry. They were surprised in
the act by the night Waterman, who
made an attempt to resist the re.
moval Of the bell, but was blud
geoned by the bandits, who got clear
aWay.-London Times.

With q .orouch.

John, the proprietor Of an inn,
enjoys the local distinction Of being
close. and crabbed-the latter quail
ity he AYERS is the result Of over
persistency as practiced by salesmen
who call on him since selling is
again a recognized factor in mer-
chandising.
After having been annoyed for
more than an hour by a past mast
ter of this species, IA little girl less
than six years old, entered his es-
tablishment to inquire whether he
would buy some sassafras roots.
"No," he bawled, and she immedi-
ately turned for the door and said
good-by.
This seemed to touch the tender
chord, and he called to inquire the
price. She said s cents. he, asked
how many roots q bunch contained
and after Examination she replied
that most punches had six roots, one
contained seven. She declined his
offer of 4 cents, explaining that it
could not be sold for SO little as it
was fresh dug root and that she was
the only one selling it.
he bought the bunch containing
the greatest number Of roots and the
transaction was clOsed.-IndianapO-

AFTER WINTERS LONG SLEEP
Authors Exquisite Word Painting of
an Early Day In the Beautiful
SprlngtIme.

A lovely variant of early spring
days; not that perfect thing when
sun and wind are on the meridian
together, with soft warmth and sail
ing clouds, but a noon Of still air,
the sun hot upon the face, SO that
the little ruf1ing breeze from the
southeast which blows and falls
once in a minute is none too cool.
In the garden-walks the tortoise
shell butterflies got up under my
feet, and lowered by skies and sew
ems at once on the white carpet Of
the arabs, where the bees kept up q
steady drone. The sky was cloud
less, save where low down in, the
west streaks and streamerS of vapor
lay all day. The sunlight was
broad and pure; every shadow full
Of vivid color. The mind, which
perhaps has need of this Semblance
of fixed points in the smooth lapse
of being, draws the white chalk
score under today, as definitely this
years opening day of spring

LINDsAY's IDEA OF RUSSIA
Peter the Crest, According to This,
Was unquestIonabIy q TwO-Slded
Character.

Muscovyl / know little Of Mus
covy, except that there once lived
Peter the Great, who was Jack the
Giant Killer and the Giant in one,
writes Yachel Lindsay in the Dial.
He had a tremendous black mus
tache, like the villain in q Laura
Jean Ebbey novel. Yet he ruled like
King Alfred Of England. 1 know
that he fought all the tribes Of
India, China and Japan to stand
still and that, personally, he could
whip his weight in wildcats after
sitting up all night reading the
Bible and eating boiled elephants
foot and drinking like q hole in the
sink.
Peter the Great had a church full
of the bones of all the saints / never
heard of and mass was said there so
often that incense poured out of the
front door and made the trees on
that street bloom in winter, and the
central pinnacles of that church
stretched up in the form of q great
hand that would grab the sun al
MONDAY and squeeze flaming hearts
blood from it for the snoV to drink
And wherever that cataract touched
the snow there Sprang up cossacks
cossacks, riding hell-bent, with theil
loves on their saddlebows or beside
them, cossack amazons.

officials Of Integrity Required.

In the appointmentment of
men whose business 1T issto en-
force law, only such asgare in
sympathy with the law should
be selected. Much of the gross
violation which we see to-day is
due to the fact that many Of
flicals whose sworn duty it is to
enforce the law are not in SYM
pathy with the principal Of pro-
hibition and so permit its viola

There is no more pressing need
confronting us than that of ava
kening and maintaing in all
citizens an active interest in the
political affairs and problems of
our country. We must prevail up
on men and women of ability,
whoes character, efficiency and
judgment are recognized, to
serve their country in national
and local puclic offices. This need
is imperative and must be met
if the various departments of the
Federal and state governments
are to enforce existing laws, and
enact new laws for the safe
guarding of our national life.
Law enforcement is the great
political challenge of our day.
The challenge must be met by
an enlightened citizenship; by
revival on the part of it,
citizens of obedience to the law
and order of our country; by the
election to office of men and
women who are not afraid to d.
their duty, irrespective of con
sequences results in their politi
cal orSsociaI ostracism. The ele-
ction of such officials is accomp7
ished only by the combined Ell
forts.of all clean, decent ant
courageous citizens
Lincoln gave US the great idea
when he said Let reverenc
for the law be breathed by ever
American mother to the lisping
babe that prattles on her lap;
let it be taught in schools, in SEM
minaries and in colleges; let it be
written in primers, spelling books
and in almanacs; let it be preach
ed from the pulpit, proclaimed
in the legislative halls, and en-
forced in courts of justice, and
in short, let it become the politi-
cal religion of the nation"
