Men stumbled out of line, drop
ping their banners as the fumes
struck them. The leader, however.
stalked through the smoke and
when police rushed to stop him
they found that he was blind and
not affected by tear gas.
A moment later many policemen
broke into tears and spectators
were routed with them when a
change of wind carried the tear
gas back on officers.

 Agreement is made as to the side starting the contest. The leader of the side taking the offense places the tiny stick in his right hand, then conceals both hands behind his back and rapidly changes the trophy from hand to hand. Finally he brings both hands to the front, tightly clinched, and folds his arms stoical- ly. y.
 The opposing players then guess in which hand the stick reposes, the first call deciding the issue. Oft times seven or eight braves will call out the winning hand, or fail to guess correctly. Should the first guess prove right the stick changes sides, and the leader of the oppo-

MACHINE SPEEDS UP PHOTOGRAPHY

Paris - (UP) The French Academy of Science viewed the worlds fastest photography when an invention was recently demon strated which showed moving pie lures taken at 2.000 exposures per second.
 The photographic invention was introduced by NJ. d d'Arsonval. one of the members of the Institute, and was the invention of Professors Huguenard and Magnan. The ci- nematographic machine. which was not greatly different from an ordi- nary camera. showed clear pictures at speed varying from 2.000 to 3,200 per second.
 By special process in exposure, together with the use of revolving shutter, film turning three meters per second produced 2.400 pictures, the luminous impressions being re- second. With a larger film the in- ventors declare they can obtain ten thousand views per second.
 The pictures were those of large fly in action and also some small birds In flight, taken at close range. When the films were showed in re- duced speed it was possible to meas ure the wing strokes of tho fly as 20 per second. The movements Of the birds were observed In the most mi- mute detail.

 Paris.Th plotting of Edith Ca- yell and her companions is estab- lished in the eyes of the enemy, but the sincere heroism of their service to the Allied cause is enriched at this late day by the disclosures of Mile Louise Thuliez. French woman who stood beside the celebrated Eng lish nurse when a German military tribunal sentenced both of them to death. Mile Thuliez only recently learned taht President Wilson and not the King of Spain, as she had supposed, was responsible for her life being spared.
 Mile Thuliez is school teacher. She was a school teacher 16 years ago when she was caught unexpect- edly in the German advance. Noth- ing in her life had suggested the daring work of which she was ca- pablo until the crisis arose. Nothing about her now, in her more mature years, with her spectacles and gray ing hair, suggests that fortitude of hourly, unfearingly, awaiting d fir ing squad, except perhaps her de- termined chin and stern patriotism.
 She has told her story as a re- suit of revelations in the personal memoirs of Jules Jusserand, former French ambassador to the United States. crediting Wilson with inter- ceding in her behalf.
 Caught in the Great Retreat
 Ut is simple story" she said. "I was a professor of mathematics liv- ing in Lille when I found myself faced with the possibility of helping men who were fighting for my coun- try.
 T was on vacation near Valenci- ennes when the retreat from Mons came through, with the Germans on the heels of the British. Six of the English wounded had been left be- hind and I found billets for them. Then came the German proclama- tion ordering civilians to surrender all British wounded.
 This I could not do. went into the forest and built huts of boughs so that the boys have a hiding place. At night bought them provisions. Other English soldiers were discov- cred in the forest, wounded, and we brought them into our secret camp.
 200 Struggled Through Lines
 we had to opearte carefully and resort to all sorts of subterfuge, but we finally managed to get 200 of
 
 to Brussels. And there Miss Cavell took care of them.
 T saw them throuh as far as the Chateau de Bellignies, on the Belgian frontier, where the Comtesse Jeanne de Belleville, who was sem fenced to death with me kept the communications open between the chateau and Miss Cavell's nursing home. We willingly suffered many hardships, walking miles by night and hiding from danger.
 We continued our operations af- ter all the British had been escorted safely through the lines. and were particularly useful by sending French metal workers through to work in the munitions plants.
 Sentenced With Miss Cavell
 Then suddenly we were suspect cd. was on my way to Miss Ca- vell's home one day in October, 1915 when friends warned me that the se- crets of our little organization had leaked out and that we were in dan ger of arrest. That very evening

would confer with his secretary of state.
 "Later in the morning I learned that hardly had I left the White House when the president sent a telegram to Ambassador Gerard in Berlin, asking him to hasten, in the name of the president, all necessary negotiations. As result the sem tences of death were changed to im- prisonment, although Mile de Bettig- nies, who was in delicate health, was unable to endure the rigors of life in prison, and died there." @
 Jusserand's story came as no sur prise to Mile Thuhez, but she ad- mitted that she learned the truth only a few weeks ago when she was presented to Mime Jusserand at re- ception and the ambassadors wife identified her as the woman who had been saved by Wilson.
 Now Thcirc Arc Memories
 "A Il these years had been credit ing the King of Spain with saving my life," she said. But Mime Jus- serand told me the story of how her husband had appealed to President Wilson, then representing neutral power. I had attributed my salva- tion to King Alfonso because the Spanish ambassador had brought me word of the commutation of my sen- tence."
 Mile Thuliez, like most soldiers of the war, has changed since those by gone days, but with the man who went through. the struggle, she shares something of that life.
 Those long months in the Ger man prison camp were terrible" she said, but often in the evening when we walk over there in the Bois de Vincennes and the smell of wood- smoke is in the air, Itcrave the old excitement, and wish I were. in the forest of Normal with my soldiers a onin

KERENSKY AGAIN
 !, ACTIVE AGAINST
 AA4 SOVIET REGIME
Former Russian Premier
 Preaching Open War , on BOlsheyiks
BY RALPH HEINzEN

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 Paris = The star of Alexandre Fesdozovitche Kerensky is in its as- cendancy again and the one-time premier of the provisional govern ment which tided over Russia be- tween Tsarist despotism and Bolshe- vik revolution is again the outstand- ing leader of the opposition.
 This time, Gnstead of organizing rebellion as a member of the Duma inside of Russia, Kerensky is the commander-in-chie of the anti Communist movement with his post of command in Paris where he has found comparative opulency and en- joys the title of editor of the Rus sian refugee newspaper 'Dni".
 The most famous figure of the Russian revolution of 1917, kerens- ky, first as Minister of Justice in the first provisioned government and then as Premier and Commander in Chief of the Russian armies in the May, 1917. revolutionary gov- ernment. is blamed by many for Bolshevism.
 A little strength at the critical mo- ment, they insist, and BolsheVism could have been stamped out at the start. It is historical fact that in- side of five months, in October, 1917. Lenin and Trotsky staged their revolution and set up a government which has ruled already for A years.
 Kerensky's politics have under gone a change and today he is a nationalist, a Russian Republican and perhaps the most violent enemy of Bolshevism in all the opposition outside of Russia. At political meet ings organized by his newspaper. Kerensky breaches open war against Soviet Russia. Russians of all shades of political sympathy cheer his pleas for violence.
 Advises Spaniards
 Before their departure for Spain, several of the Spanish Republican exiles, who have become ministers in the new Spanish state consulted with him, particularly as to means of avoiding Bolshevism in Spain.
 There is but one warning which all Europe voices to the newborn Republic of Spain." Kerensky told them. Beware of Bolshevism, be- ware the under-cover borings of professional agitators, give liberty of press and speech within reason. but do not permit under the guise of free-speech communistic attempts Co ruin the splendid revolution which you have achieved without bloodshed.
 "The Spanish revolution has writ len a new page in political history by its quiet, studied development"
