ADVENTUREOF
THE TWINS
By Olive Barton Roberts

There was a loud bang and when
the smoke had cleared away Nancy
and Nick saw dreadful sight.
The tin soldiers had put big
shooting cracker under the toy
bridge and blown it up.
Something else had happened. too.
Every one of the wooden soldiers
in their brave red jackets lay in n
Tong row on the ground.
Are they all dead?" exclaimed
Nancy in dismay. Did the shoot
ing kill them?'
NO" said the Tinker Man, "but
We'll have to hurry and help them
up. They can't get up when they
fall down because they can't bend
in the middle"
ITS funny how they could all be
hit at once Nick couldn't help say
: ing in spite of their hurry.
"Wooden soldiers are like ten
pins, exclaimed the Tinker Man.
when one gets knocked over, he
falls against the soldier next to him
and knocks him down, too He falls
against his neighbor and he falls,
and so on down the line. No doubt
the general got hit with a splinter
off the bridge and fell backward,
and that knocked them all over.
General Gold Braid is always get
ting hurt
All the time they were talking. the
three of them were hurrying. to-
ward the scene of battle, and now
they arrived at the field.
The tin soldiers had stopped fir
ing because there was no one left to
shoot at, and the bridge being down
they could not get over the river to
capture the enemy.
They had jumped off their tin
horses and were wiping the water
off their stecds and off themselves
too, to keep from rustling. as the
wooden soldiers had used water
guns.
Nick set General Gold Braid on
his feet first, and soon they had the
rest of the wooden soldiers on their
feet in a nice even row.
Thank you," said General Gold
Braid stiffly. Twill You kindly look
for my arms. I've lost them beth,

TO MAKE HISTORY VIVID

No reason is apparent why there
should not be compliance with the
proposal of Senator walsh of Mass
achusctt that the Government pre-
serve motion pictures of historical
value. He charges that the autnori-
ties at Washington have done moth
ing to save for p0Stcrity such films
as those depicting the congressional
declaration Of war against Germany,
the war addresses of President Will
son. the burial of the unknown
soldier, sessions of the Washington
disarmament conference, presidential
inhugurations and other important
events and take the position that
this is neglccting n duty to future
generations. The senator advocates
the enactment of Legislation making
it mandatory for designated officials
TO preserve movies of this character
Photographs have been of great
assistance in preserving an accurate
record OF the appearance of notable
persons and significant happenings
of the past half century. Prior to
the Civil war pictures were the work
of artists with brush and pencil, and
many Of the portraits and scenes of
that early period were more or less
imaginative, and far from accurate.
Thus there is good reason to believe
that the well-known painting of
"Washington Crossing the Delaware"
departs widely from the truth.
Photographs prevent misrepresenta
ton. But movies not only are ac-
curate, but are also vivid.
If the government should preserve
motion pictures of historic events,
and copies should be available for
use in the school and for public ex-
hibition. the people in years to come
Will have Il far more correct notion
Of the present period than we have
of the past Pitts urgh Post.

Garden of Eden
Was In Sahara
Professor Says

London, April l4.-ln the past
there have been gucsses and specula
tons as to the location of the Garden
of Eden. Professor Sir Arthur Keith
lecturins before the Royal Society,
treated scientific audience to some
original ideas of his. own on the sub
ject.
He said that in the "far distant
past" the Sahara and the vast deserts
of Arabia and the area stretching to
Mongonia were blooming"
"That large tract was really the
Garden of Eden, man was driven from,
it not by flaming sword but by Il
flaming sun. Every type of man
could be found round that Garden OF
Eden.
''It"is possible to go far beyond the
days of Abraham and Tubal Cain anu
his smithy. 1t should be realized that
Egypt and Babylonia were only rem
nants of past civilization. Civil
lied man, am convinced, is far older
than it as present generally be-
lieved."
