Houses Of Mud.

Women. in California are building
houses with their own fair hands.
What is more, they are making the
bricks.
The bricks, however, are of the kind
spoken of in the Bible as made by the
people Of Israel in Egypt. e., Of
clayey earth mixed with straw for
binder. The straw is indispensable,
and it will be remembered how the
lsraelites "kicked" because it was
not provided.
Such bricks are merely sun baked.
Missionary priests in California In the
early days used them for building
churches and other structures which,
covered with stucco, were very hand
some. These 'dobe buildings were also
substantial, weatherproof>>a and endur-
ing, as is testified by many that still
stand, unimpaired by the wear Of Gen.

which one can put up for oneself, even
the children helping, has its attrac-

NEW GOSPEL OF HEALTH OUT OF
 MIDDLE EUROPE
Dark Man of Mystery Has Started a New Throb of
 Intellectual Life.

CONSTANTINOPEE, July 25,-A new gospel of health, that man i2 not one, but three, and that he can not function fully until his three per sonalities are in harmony, has come here from the Middle East on the tide of Russian and other refugees from far countries.
 This gospel is proclaimed by a small. dark man of mystery, a Greek Tartar, G. l. Gurdjieff. He has con tributed to the meager intellectual life of the city a new throb.
 The outward and primary form of his teachings begins with dances borrowed from the Mosques of Per sia and the temples of India. He puts some of his patients on bread and water for months at time. but requires them, all the while, to carry on the most violent exercises which conform to the music of a piano
 Gurdjieff's teachings have some similarity with the ancient Greek conceptions of the development of mental force and bodily grace and activity.
 He is persuaded that his teachings will change the art of living He has gathered about him a group Of converts who say they are going to spread his theories westward, some going to the United States He says that he was taught by Russian physi clans and psychologists.
 Tn harmony there is health' de clared Gurdjieff. '"The western world of medicine and psychology has never grasped the truth that man is not controlled by one per sonality. but by three, and when these three are not in harmony a man says he is sick A sick man, a man with that tired feeling, is like a horse and carriage without a driv- CT. The man is not master of him self
 "Civilization has led man away from himself, physically and spirit ually. Too much use of the head has deharmonized him. Man is com posed of three parts, just like ma chine. One part thinks, one feels and one eats and sleeps. If man thinks too much, or eats too much, or sleeps too much, he falls ill.
 My plan is to first put the three back into & common unity, and then gradually develop a fourth person ality which controls the other three. If this fourth personality or dominat ing consciousness is not developed, the three men in the same body nev' CT establish contact with each other and the anarchy we call sickness destroys him."

SOLDIER-FARMERS
 OF CANADA HOLD
 IMMENSE ACREAGE

OTTAWA. Ont. July 25.-If Can ada's soldier-farmers were to pool their holdings they would have one giant farm of 5,000,O00 acres, dotted with grain fields, cattle, hogs, patches of fruit trees, silos and many sturdy houses and farm buildings. :.
 Population of this one big figura- tive farm, according to a report on the work of the Soldier Settlement Board, would be more than 126,00Q, estimating an average family of five to each settler
 The actual number of ex-service men who have been placed on land through government aid is 25,443, Short courses have been held in idle months and all phases of mixed farm ing scientific dairying and pure bred cattle raising given intensive study. according to the report. Ex- perts have been sent into many dis tricts to provide continuous super. vision.
 As a result of the aid, financial and educational, very high per centage of the men are becoming successful farmers, the report says.
