Mr.. X, a well-known writer and

before the university class of stu
dents who were aspiring to the fame
that he had already reached.
A fair young coed was delighted
with the lecturer and was evidently
an ardent admirer. She turned to
young woman, sitting beside her
and gurgled: ooh, don't you think
that Mr.. X. is just wonderful, and
he's so handsome. I'm simply wild
about him." The young woman
smiled and agreed that he was
"pretty nice" The coed's enthusi-
asm increased as the lecture pro-
crossed, and every now and then
she turned to the young woman and
voiced her admiration. Finally, i'm

TlME.sEkvlno SERVICE

A young woman, who had come
from another state to teach in high
school in southern Indiana town,
stepped into shoe store in that
town one day to buy pair of OK
lords. The young man clerk who
removed her shoe noticed that she
was wearing black pumps and hose,
but that ON one leg she wore over
the black stocking tan one from
which the foot had been cut. The
clerk was nonplnsed until he
learned the reason for the arrange
ment. She asked to be shown both
tan and black shoes. When she
tried on the black oxford, she rolled
the tan stocking up out Of sight.
When she tried on tan one, she
lowered the tan stocking to fit into
the top of the oxford. The clerk
kept his head and sold her pair

HELMET or THE HEBRIDEs
Offers Very Slight Attraction
to the Visitor.

A pointed casque, white with the
host of sea birds that nest upon it,
is all that remains of the lofty
mountain that in some long past era
dominated the now sunken valleys
west Of the Hebrides. Seen from
the west, the rock, which rises 60
feet above the ocean, resembles a
huge spiked German helmet. The
waves have broken down part of
the seaweed-covered visor, and the
upper part of the helmet is deeply
dented; but the point of it is still
sharp and frequently serves as a
resting-place for one of the huge
albatrosses Of the north. The he'll
met appears to have been cloven in
two as if with terrific blow from
a saber; the eastern face is YER
teal wall. The island is called
Rockall, and is quite barren. 1t is
situated in an unfrequented stretch
Of the ocean and is more than $50
miles from the nearest land. Few
persons have ever visited it. Indeed,
only four landings are recorded.

THOUGHTFUL SPONTANEOUSLY

A certain Georgia colonel of the
old school, who had been brought
up with firm faith in the wisdom
Of the maxim of ''early to bed and
early to rise" took the precaution
each night to see if his son John
was safely in bed at 10 80, and then
gave no further thought to the mat
ter. One night, however, being a
bit restless, he strolled down to the
lower hall, where he was somewhat
amazed to see John, fully dressed,
descending the stairs, shoes in hand.
ssHello, dad p greeted the youth.
@Guess I must be walking in my
sleep again.

always carry your shoes| asked

The customary silence was being
observed while q comely young
woman was putting on one of the
hilltop green's at the Riverside
golf course. Down the hill, out of
sight, was an oncoming foursome,
at least one of which was a green
player. He shot without waiting
for the girl to putt. His ball
trickled up and on the green, roll
ing just in front of the young lady's

word. The girl looked up and
around, walked over to the edge of

shouted at the unsuspecting duffer:
"Hey, you big cab driver, go back
to South Grove where you belong"

no stroke More Dreaded by Military
commanders--AbundantIy Shown
In History Of Battles.

The flank attack is one of the
deadliest moves known to warfare.
An army is, by its nature, linear
thing. Not only is it strung out
man by man, its mind and its power
OF action are also most hopelessly
one-track.
An army in action usually con-
slsts OF men breast to breast. all
facing one way. Before it is its
zone of effectiveness, its raiding
limits, its charging radius, and the
ground which it can cover with pro-
jectiles. Behind it lie its commu-
nications, and the wherewithal of
the meal that can never be many
hours distant.
While an army is engaged it
turns only with great difficulty. It
has only definite quantity of en-
ergy to expend; if that goes into
maneuyering it cannot go into fight
ing. An enemy who appears on an
army's flank, therefore, finds foe
particularly assailable. The latter's
effective zone may easily cover
portion Of the army and infict severe
damage before the necessary read
justment can be made. A fanked
army knows this. 1t is therefore
usually true that a panic results
'nce an army is turned.
The history of battles is full OF
uch instances. Caesars Common
aries frequently note: "Our cavalry
'ppears on their wing, they turn
heir backs, great slaughter en-
ues."

Thirty-five men and women passen-

late last night when a half dozen or
more colored men hurled stones and
other missiles through the windows
of the car. That no one of the pas

was due, it was explained later, to the
fact that they crouched up in the floor
during the attack.
The disorder took place at d point
near Park road. a short distance from
the tenth police precinct and several
policemen hurried to the scene. The
attacking party fed at their approach
and no arrests had been made at a
late hour.
According to the version given the
police the trouble started when the
car stopped at Florida and Georgia
avenues, going on its uptown trip.

at Walter Reed Hospital, is alleged to
have brushed against a colored man
on the rear end of the platform when
