greatest banquet in all history still is
in its height. But amid the feasting
and wine and revelry the message of
the mountain girl is not believed; her
warning is not taken. With the on
rush of the army of Cyrus, the huge
gates give way, the mighty forts are
brushed down, the palaces are set
afire-and Babylon falls.
To avoid being taken by the enemy,
Belshazzar dies by his own hand, with
no one near him in his last hour but
the little mountain girl who loved him
and tried to save him. She holds his
hands and kisses the dying lips, while
the last blare from the trumpets of
Cyrus falls upon her ears.
The little mountain girl wanders in
to the desert, alone and forsaken, her
wild spirit crushed by the death of
the Prince. Then love comes to her
gently, softly, as the boy who sang
songs to her slips his hand in hers and
leads her back to her country home.
There solace and happiness are found
in the love of the Rhapsodc.

Crnssing Accidents.

Mr. Bristol, assistant general man.
ager of the Santa Fe Railway, has
issued a very timely circular letter
to the employees and also to the pub
lie calling particular attention to the
growing evil of accidents at railway
crossings growing out of the fact that
auto drivers especially think that they
can beat the train across. When the
fact lis known that it is a thousand
times easier to stop the auto than
the train and if they meet it is a
thousand times more disastrous to
the auto and occupants than it is to
the train, it would seem that common
sense would teach due discretion. 1t
does not, however, and the company
is calling on its employees to assist in
every way possible in trying to pre-
vent accidents and warning those who
taking long chances and still escape.
A word to the wise ought to be suf-
ficicnt, but nothing but a sledge ham
mcr will work on damphools.

Just Plain United States"

In announcing the call for a meet
ing of the national and international
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor to be held in
Washington on February %, Frank
Morrison, secretary of the Federation.
said that the meeting is to be for the
purpose of considering attacks now
being made on the trade-union move
ment
There is no doubt that the unions
are under fire as they never were be-
fore. Many employers formerly neu-
trail are row avowedly anti-union, and
public sentiment is by no means
strongly supporting labor organiza-
tions.
The public is not against unions as
unions, but it is against the idea which
radical labor leaders advocate that
man must belong to union before
he can work and that an employer be
not allowed to hire man unless he
belongs to a union. In other words,
the public is against the closed shop
for no man in free country should
be forced to join or not to join labor
union, church, lodge, a political
party or any other organization as a
condition precedent to getting u job
and no employer should be forced to
hire !, man belonging to a specified
organization to the exclusion of other
good workmen who do not belong.

But a young mountain girl comes
to the city to buy dress. After she
has traded her apples and other fruits
for the coveted garment, she sets
about to view the city of Babylon.
She is seen by young poet, the

wild nature appeal to him and he

THE FALL OF BABYLON"

David Wark Griffith's story, ''The
Fall of Babylon" is that of a brilliant
people who were dust when the Gentle
Carpenter was born; who hungered
for food and love and happiness-even
as you and l.
They built marvellous city, Babylon
the Mighty, with massive walls and
stately palaces that only treachery
could reduce.
When the story begins Babylon,
539 b. c. two religious factions are
fighting each other The great High
Priest of Belize of the cold, stern
religion, intolerant and hard and bit
ter-is jealous of the worship by the
Babylonians of Ishtar, Goddess of
Love.
Prince Belshazzar and his father,
King Nabonidus, reign upon the
throne of Babylon. They have songs
and prayers of rejoicing for Ishtar.
The High Priest of Bel looks upon
the revelry with hatred and bitterness.
He has great power. He puts his
guards in control of the gates and
bribes several of the kings guards to
join his forces. He plots to send a
messenger to Cyrus, King of the Per-
slams, and have him bring his mighty
army to Babylon and destroy the city,
and so avenge himself on Belshazzar
and Ishtar. A trusted young man is
sent, Cyrus agrees, and chariots and
