Why Our Troops Remain on the Rhine

expressed wish of French and Germans
that the Americans remain. Unofficial
observers explain the situation thus:
The Rhine is the line along which
8ntagonisms are bitterest and where
the storm will break. At the very
heart of it, and giving to the lowering
prospect the only tinge of sunshine
and calm, is the American flag and the
American handful of men. This is
more symbol than military repre-
sentation. Our flag and our handful
of men are million miles from any
interference in the internal affairs of
Europe.
Americas moral position in Europe
is today recognized, not only by all
allied governments, but by Germany
as well. European countries haven't
a shred of faith or hope in each other.
They all believe that the leadership
for any movement for peace must
somehow, some time, come from the
other side OF the Atlantic. They also
recognize that the actual physical
presence of Americans on the Rhine
has prevented the outbreak Of trouble.

If Mr.. Fox had not been unkind to
little Reddy Fox and his brother Rey
he would very likely have had long
slide across the pond and arrived
early at the farm.
But Mr.. Fox had met the little Fox
brothers one morning very early when
they had been out hunting and taken
from them a fat chicken which they
were carrying home for breakfast,
which was very wrong as well as I'M
kind, because the strong should never
take advantage Of the weak.
The little brother Foxes did not for
get this, and when Mr.. Fox called on
Mr.. Coon to ask his help the little
Fox brothers happened to be passing
and heard what he said.
All the way home they were think
ing what they could do to plague Mr..
Fox and spoil his trip across the pond
that night, and before 1t was time for
Mr.. Coon to be at the pine tree by the
pond the Fox brothers had thought
of plan to pay Mr.. Fox for taking
their chicken.
1t was not moonlight night, and
SO when Mr.. Fox and Mr.. Coon met
they did not see any one behind the
tall bushes and rocks by the fir tree.
Mr.. Fox was leaning against the
rock, with his back to the bushes. and

ALICE

A LICE, curiously enough, is a
4 \ mans name, not womans.
Originally 1t was given to the sons
of the family, and is, without doubt,
derived from the Anglo-SaXon Adel-
gis, of which the feminine form was
Adelgisa. 1t means noble, in both
its masculine and feminine forms.
1t is clear that Alice represents
Adelgis and not Adelgisa, and that
the proper feminine form would be
AIiza. Some believe that Eliza, gen.
orally thought to be derivative Of
Elizabeth, is this missing form. For
proof of Aliza as the representative
of Adelgiza, the Liber Vitae of Dur
ham records the changes in Adelgiza
from the first noble lady of that name
who laid her gifts upon the altar. By
contraction 1t became by steps AIDE
liza, AaIiza, and Aliza.
Aaliza is still given to daughters
of noble families in Europe. Adaliz.
Adliz and finally Ais, are other con-
fractions. Alicia Is a derivation
which represents an effort at euphony
lacking In Allsa, but Alison is not so
derived as is popularity supposed, but
has a completely different origin.
Alice is purely English with slight
Teutonic flavor, since another ex-

ORDEAL FOR UGANDA BRIDE
Custom ordains That Mrs. NewlyWed
Must Weep for Eight Days
Without Cessation.

The Bahuma tribesmen of Uganda,
Central Alphabetically in the very
heart of Africa-are the widest and
most uncivilized people of the world.
They have unusually peculiar customs.
Perhaps the most interesting Of these
is the manner in which bride Is sup
posed to conduct herself after her mar
riage.
To begin with, bride is literally
dragged away from her home by her
husband. Her family tie rope around
her legs and hold fast to her. Then
the bridegroom pulls as hard as he
can. If he cannot succeed in overpow-
ering the strength of his brides family
they weaken their hold on the fetter
and make it appear that the husband
has won his tug-of-war.
Then the victorious bridegroom
takes his bride to the home of his
mother. The most passionate weep
ing is done by the bride. She cries
for eight days without stopping.
