JERUSALEM FELL TO
COOK HUNTING AN EGG
Mayor Hands Over Keys of City
After Turks Had Fled in
Night.

I The story of the great Palestine egg
hunt was told by Maj. Vivian Gilbert
of London, in an address at the Brook
Ign Y. NJ G. A. recently.
Major Gilbert was member of the
Allenby expedition which fought its
way into Palestine in 1917.
"On the morning of December 9,
1917" the major said, IAN orderly,
who had been sent to small village
which we held for eggs, missed his
way. He returned to report, in great
perplexity. that "a cove, surrounded by
a crowd had given him some keys
and made a speech when he asked for
eggs"
The "cove" was the mayor of Jerusa-
lem, who, deserted by the Turks, who
left the city the night before, and pre-
Stunning the English forces to be de-
scending on the city, had ''surren-
dered" by handing over the keys of
the city to the first man he saw In
British uniform.
1.-THE brigadier general was In
formed the major continued, and
going into Jerusalem, formally accept
ed the keys. But the division general
decided that he was the fit person to
capture Jerusalem and ordered the
brigadier to return the keys. Some
hours later the former, accompanied
by gorgeous retinue, accepted the
keys from the mayor for the third
time.
But when the division general sent
a telegram to General Allenby, the lat
ter replied that he would take the
city, and he did SO two days later
1.-THE poor mayor died two weeks
was said that he con-
tracted pneumonia from so much run
ming around bareheaded."
The Moslem population was greatly
mortified by the incident OF the eggs,
he added.

LADIES FOR IMPORTATION

Moscow, Idaho, January 10, 1922.
Editor Star-MirrOr:
| see that the w. C. T. u. has taken
a decided stand against the American
Legion opening moving picture shows
on Sunday, saying that they did not
believe in commercializing the Sab
bath day which God has given us to
keep holy unto himself. Now Mr.
Editor, l wish space in your paper to
ask these good Sisters where in the
Bible they find where God or Jesus
Christ has ever given Sunday as a
holy day to be kept holy unto himself
Now as these sisters have appealed to
every good citizen to take a firm
stand against Sunday movies; this is
why | am asking these Sisters to give
us the chapter and verse in the Bible

Cinder blocks, the invention of Frank
Cordery of New York, are being used
in the construction of a 100000 resi-
dence in New Rochelle, New York
The blocks, made from ordinary coal
cinders and chemicals, are from thirty
to thirty-five per cent cheaper than
ordinary brick or tile. They are nom
conductors Of heat and cold and have
many other features not possessed by
the ordinary brick. The press for the
making of the cinder blocks is set up
on the site of the building under con-
struction. The blocks are turned out
and are ready for use twenty-four
hours after holding The New
Rochelle house, the first to be built
of the new cinder blocks will be two
and one-half stories high and contain
eighteen rooms.
The picture shows Frank Cordery.

ganization stands for some things that

are advocated, only in little different

A SERIOUS MATTER


Prohibition is as much part of
the Constitution as the abolition of
slavery. Moonshiners, bootleggers
and others engaged in the illicit
traffic are trying to beat down the
Constitution, demolish the law of the
land and defy official authority and
the courts. Citizens who sympathize
with them, who abet them in their
nefarious business, OF who look upon
their crimes in spirit of levity need
to be reminded that they are upon a
course that encourages criminals, in
cites lawlessness and is undermining
the authority of The Constitution, of
the congress of the United States, of
the president and of the courts

The time has come for payment of
the post-dated checks issued to the
field agents of the Townley organiza-
ton during the past year or two. 1t
was understood when the campaign
was on for members for the nonparti-
san league at SIG per head. that in
cases where present funds were
scarce, a post-dated check was accep-
ted. These checks are now coming
to light, in the hands of a Mime
apolis collection agency and the usual
methods of such agencies are being
used to force payment. One man in
Boomer county, this state, makes the
statement that he signed no post
dated check and that his name has
been forged. 1t would seem, in the
face of this, and many other things,
that the league is not in very good
position to reorganize it's forces in
this state and take part in the com
ing campaign.
