Tongues Clash In Belgium

National divisions are growing
more acute in Belgium, says writer
in the Living Age. The Flemish
speaking provinces, already insurgent
against the French speaking Brussels
government before the war; and en-
couraged in this attitude during the
German occupation, are more insist
ent upon their rights than ever.
Parliament recently refused to erect
a Flemish university at Antwerp. But
the minister of education. apparently
without the endorsement Of all his
colleagues. submitted a bill to parlia-
ment providing that "at the Univer-
sity of Client instruction shall be CIV
en- in Flemish: 1t shall be given in
French and Flemish in the schools OF
civil engineering, arts and manufac-
lures"
This bill was adopted by vote OF
SO against IS, with seven abstentions
figures suggesting the equal divi-
sion of sentiment over question
that. If we are to credit newspaper
headlines. has aroused passions that
have brought the people to the verge
of violence.
The neutral and Protestant Journal
de Geneve regards the action of the
Belgian parliament as a "regrettable
setback to Latin culture" likely to
accentuate "discords of race. Ian
guage. and even of religion in that
country 1t will be recalled that the

Sacrifices Son to Make Rain Fall

A story from the heart of darkest
Africa is being related in the prelim-
mary trial of seven natives on a
charge of murder in Salisbury, Rhod-
esa. 1t is the story of human sac
rifice to propitiate a rain goddess, the
chief of the native tribe ordering his
own son to be burned at the stake.
The scene Of the sacrifice is a ma
tive kraal at Mt. Darwin. on the out
posts of civilization, close to the Por-
tuguese border.
When the first rain of the season
began the native tribe planted their
crops in great hopefulness. But there
came day after day without rain,
when the Jscorching sun of tropical
Africa burnt the land dry so that the
crops We're a failure.
The natives appealed to their chief,
one Chigano. He took counsel with a
brother chief who lived across the
border in Portuguese territory, and
was presented to rain goddess. The
rain goddess lived some little distance
from Chigano's kraal, and was much
feared by the natives.
The chief persuaded the goddess to
assist in his peoples desperate plight.
and she promised to do her best. 1t
was a condition of her presence in the
kraal that she should be invisible to
all save the chief and that she must
not look upon anything of a red color
or be shown firearms.
To the establishment of the chief,
however, the rain goddess failed. 1t
became evident that she must be ap-
peased with spirit. He ordered that
his son should be sacrificed. Four
natives carried the chiefs son to the
sacrificial place. Wood was collected
and funeral pyre two feet high built.
Then the bound man was laid on it
and more wood piled over him.
One of the natives made fire by
rubbing a stick against another and
applying it to some dried grass. The
pyre was soon ablaZe and a sacrifi-
cial orgy began.
Curiously enough. rain fell shortly
afterward, and this would naturally
tend to impress the native mind with
the efficacy of the sacrifice. Some Is
natives were eventually arrested. but
only seven. two chiefs, headman and
four natives, are charged with muir
der.
A trooper of the British South Afri-
can police gave evidence at the trial
in Salisbury.

RootIcooers OF Old

In GaSsaway township tnere was
rather more having before the justice
of the peace than in any other part

The point in question on the oc-
casion we have in mind was whether
a certain gentleman had unaWfuii!

The prosecuting attorney was a
young man up with the times IN

hook. all covered with sheepskin, IN
which it was asserted that the court

The defendant employed shrewd

OF course. the prosecutor relied
upon his new textbook, and read the
state ment concerning judicial
knowledge, and made the argument
on the assumption that proof was
made when it was shown that WINS

The defendants lawyer then maze
his argument. which was long ana
