sided game from start to finish,
Circle scoring thirteen points the

Armistice Day

ArmiStice Day was observed by the
J singing of a number of the songs
that were popular among the boys
''oyer there And singing is a good
medium for the observance of this
| important day. The nation realized
the value of song in keeping up the
marale at home; the boys realized
the value Of song in keeping up the
morale when they were far from
home.
A soldier who was at the front on
the 18th of November, 1918, was ask
ed how the boys reacted to the amris
tice-the cessation of firing He had
been at or near the front for months
where lights and loud voices were
taboo. When the last gun was
silent he was part of group that
took charge of some old German Of
ficers quarters. The night was spent
in singing around the biggest, hott-
est and brightest fire they could
build. So Tuesday morning we sang
some of the songs the boys sang on
this date six years ago.

Well Preserved Skeletons Discovered
in France Indicate Height of Six
Feet Nine Inches.

The discovery of 25,000-year-old
graves containing we'll preserved skele-
tons of three prehistoric warriors, has
just been made at Solutre, small vii
lage in the Cote dor department of
France, widely known for its prehis-
toric remains.
In the last 60 years remarkable
specimens of remains of the prehis-
toric period have been found at Solu-
ire, and short time ago the Lyons
faculty of science decided to under
take methodical and scientific search
of the district on its own account. The
first search proved rather disappoint-
ing, but the work was, nevertheless,
energetically carried on, and after 20
days of patient toll the scientists In
charge of the expedition discovered
the skeletons of three men who lived
in the later paleolithic or aurignacien
period. from 10000 to $4,000 years ago.
The three skeletons were buried In
the same position at a depth of feet
Z inches, feet and feet respectively,
the heads facing the rising sun. Lying
on their backs, the knees slightly
raised, the hands clasped over the
stomachs. the skeletons were resting
on beds of ashes. On either side of
the head were two roughly hewn
stones In the shape of "cromlech,' "
which, 1t Is believed, indicated the ex-
act position to be occupied by the
body.

Joseph Greerand His Daughter


/ and it wanted all his skill and some
times most of his strength to avoid
disaster. She said very little. but she
showed perfectly normal concern for
his success, and by the time they were
safely upon gravel again he felt that
she was, In balance and tone, much
the same person with whom he'd left
Hickory Hill. But of her intentions
toward him, the sort of modus vivendi,
! II any, she meant to offer him, he had
no inkling whatever.
He was conscious of a growing In
tangibility about her as she became
more at ease. Indeed, II struck him,
amusedly, at something she said, that
she'd have said just that thing, and in
Just that tone, to Jeffrey, her chauf-
feur. But his last impression of her
that day was to be of different sort.
They had slowed down for 4 right

big, comfortable-looking farmhouse.
Joe stopped at once, and began back
ing to turn in.
"You needn't do that" she said,
sharply. 81 can get out right here"
She added. when he went on without
obeying her, I've already been in the

She was fumbling with the door

he went on backing the car, across the
culvert and up the drive. He made
her no other answer until she demand

say? What are you going to DOR

I'm not going TO leave you till can
turn you over to him-as good as /
got you"
Again he saw she was trembling vio-
lently. "You--cadi" she whispered.
'I'm not going to tell him anything"
he said. I'm going to let him have a
good look at me, that's ALL"
BY low he had stopped his car be-
fore the door. She sprang down and
fled up the path to the doorstep, but
he followed, only pace behind. At
the door she turned and spoke to him
in the high, clear, cultivated, leisurely
tone which connotes security and place
and unlimited assurance. I'm terribly
sorry you don't think you can stop,
but l know how frightfully late I've
made you, already. Good-by."
But her face made of that manner a
pitiable travesty. She was on the
verge of the complete decentralization
of panic. She couldn't endure seeing
her husband and her daughter in the
same room with him. Not today. at
any rate. There was clear hatred of
him in her eyes, but there was appeal
as well, and this he couldn't resist.
He turned sharply away and was
getting into his car when John VIII
Hanson opened the door. He waved
one hand while he slid his transmits
sion-lever into first speed with the 9th

ing as fast as he could back to town

what John or any of the rest of that
gang thought of him.

CHAPTER V-continued.

"He filled me full of Details" John
concluded, land / can't remember
them. I'd like TO take you out to meet
him some time and hear for yourself
what he's got to say"
Joe said, seriously, that he'd be very
glad to go. There was nothing new
about old Nicholson's facts, and moth
ing very alarming about his theories,
but he'd be worth talking to anyhow,
and his stand of Belgian flax worth
seeing If that stuff could be made to
grow in this soil and climate it might
be worth a lot to them.
He didn't mention to John that, for
three months, he had put in odd hours
designing a harvester that would pull
as secretive with his immature ideas
as a cat with her blind kittens.
"All right" said John, well plan
to go out there some time, within the
next week or So"
Joe grinned. He could manage it
tomorrow, he said, though it was a
pretty full day. And he was going
North tomorrow night.
"Tomorrow's impossible for me-"
said John "Oh, d-A 1t, yes, I'll
make it today. If Nicholson's there.
I'd promised Dodo I'd go to a ball
game with Merchants and the Cubs.
But she'll let me off, guess"
Nicholson was at home and would
be glad to see them. So the date with
Dorothy had to be broken. The two
ate lunch together, and Immediately
afterward, in Joe's roadster, drove out
to Nicholson's.
Joe enjoyed the afternoon thorough
". He'd never liked John Williamson
so well before; he had never had so
little the sense that they belonged to
two different species. They talked,
for the first time, at ease, and found,
within rather narrow limits, COM
mon language.
As for old Nicholson, he proved clear
treasure-trove. He was wild, possibly
little mad, utterly unsound in all his
scientific ideas; and his manners,
though somewhat more elaborate, were
as outrageous as Joe's own. But he
was a perfectly real unaffected per-
son, happily living life that was just
about as he wanted it, and as sublime
ly Indifferent to collective opinion as
he was to the facts of physics and
chemistry.
He and Joe, as they tramped out to
the fax fields and back to the "labora-
tories and as they sat In his veranda
discussing a hospitable supply of
Scotch and soda, argued and swore at

Giants Lived Is Centuries AGO

The skeletons evidently belonged to
extremely powerful men, as the small
est of the three measured feet 2
inches, while the tallest measured 6
feet 8 inches. The shape of the skulls
is remarkable. The forehead is rather
low. The sockets of the eye are square
and of large dimensions; the jawbone
is prominent and the jaws are power
full and still contain well preserved
teeth.
The skeletons are in a wonderful
state of preservation. One skull Is In
tact, while the trunk and limbs of an
other are in perfect condition. To
judge from the teeth, the skeletons are
those of men from twenty-four to
twenty-seven years old, who probably
died while fighting, as the head of 4
stone arrow is lodged in the skull of
one of them.-London Mail.

four o'clock. He was arriving that
day, he said, over the Northwestern, at
five-thirty. for a few hours only, as
he was going out again that night. He
wanted talk with her and visit with

But within minute or two the ques-
ton of going on was settled for him.
He had been balancing the car on the
crown of a newly worked dirt road.
1t was trick comparable to walking
tight rope, and when loose stone
threw him little to one side the car
Instantly became unsteerable. He
killed the motor and braked as hard
as he dared, which wasn't much, TO
check their momentum, but there was
no way to stop their side-slip. The
only question was whether they would
bring up in ditch, in which case the
car would no doubt roll over, or against
cut-down bank. 1t depended on
which was there.
Violet laughed as she felt them GO
ing, but not, he noted, the sort of
laugh one might expect. There was
nothing of panic in it. 1t was only a
matter of seconds before they brought
up against the bank and stopped with
jolt which threw her violently upon
him.
For moment her body was like
steel, every muscle stretched taut !;
but even so she made no movement
away from him. He eased the posi-
ton of his shoulder by slipping 1t un-
der her, and at that, with gasp. she
went soft. His arm closed round her
and held her where she was.

The first thing Henry Craven did
after Margaret's departure left him
free to enjoy life in his own way, was
to begin worrying about Beatrice
Greer. He caught glimpses of her in
places where he felt she ought not to
be, though it struck him that with her
father away, home was no safer
place than anywhere else. He sug-
gested to Violet that she extend a pro-
tecting hand to the girl, and in so do
ing made the troubling discovery that
she had cast Joe into outer darkness
and barred the very name of Greer.
