Question-What is the abon1lnatlon
of desolation spoken of by Daniel and
mentioned by Jesus in Matthew 24:15S
Answer-The parallel passage in
Luke 21:20 reads: "And when ye
shall see Jerusalem comprised with
armies then know that the desolation
thereof is nigh" The abomination Of
desolation evidently refers to the DIES.
olating heather armies Of Rome with
their pagan standards.
Q.-PIease tell me where to find the
text which says that we have a living
soul.
A-Tou may refer to Genesis 2:7.
which says that man is q living souls
not that he has a living soul "And
the Lord God formed man of the dust
of the ground, and breathed into his
nostrils the breath of life; and man
became a living soul"
C.-What causes dreams? Does God
send them?
A.-For the cause Of dreams In
duced by physical or mental condi-
lions, men consult a physician or a.
psychiatrist. on the other hand, the

POTATO SALAD. a great
American year-round standby,
is particularly popular during
the summer months. II you
want your potato salad 10 be
really good, never use just ordi-
nary leftover cold potatoes.
Boil them fresh in their jackets
until tender and drain immedi-
ately, but don't peel until cool.
The potatoes should be cooked
through, but firm enough TO be
sliced evenly and remain un-
broken and attractive during
mixing.

Watermelon
Pickle
BY PRUDENCE PENNY

SUMMER WEATHER is just
arriving and some vegetables
and fruits are already here to
greet il. Watermelons. one OF
natures prize refreshments, are
in abundance.
There are many different
varieties of watermelons grown
but so far this season most OF
those arriving are known as the
black diamond variety, which is
round with solid green coloring,
and some Tom Watsons, which
are also solid green in color but
Of the long type.
How 10 Select
When picking a melon il is
not always easy 10 pick win
ner, even for some person who
has handled melons for years.
A common test for ripeneSs is
the kind Of sound given off
when thumped. The melon is
assumed 10 be ripe when a dull,
hollow sound is heard, but de-
pendence cannot be placed in
this test. II possible but melon
halves or get your dealer TO
plug the melon.
Ice cold is the only rule in
serving watermelon, with or
without salt. II is a dessert
that refreshes without bringing
new thirst. One big red slice
of watermelon contains a good
supply of vitamin G and some

(Fourth of a Series.)
BY GEN. MAURICE-GUSTAYE
GAMELIN,

PARIS.-Many people wonder why
the French and British armies re-
manned inactive during the first
months OF that period known as
the phony war"
MY answer is simple and it is
an old French military axiom: You
never have a good reason for a
Ablunder."
But consider the situation that
had been created for us at the end
of September of 1899.
If Belgiu mhad been allied with
us; If she had let us pass through
her territory during the time the
Germans were tied up in Poland,
we could, in the first onslaught, have
turned the Siegfried Line, which
stopped in front of Luxembourg and
only extended in thin row of pill
boxes into the plains of AK la
Chapelle (Aachen). But France and
England couldn't enter Belgium and
Luxembourg forcibly. We were,
therefore, committed to attack be-
tween the Rhine and Moselle, taking
the Dull Dy the hornS.
Took the Offensive.
In the night of September we
began moving forward in order to
approach our border and after Sep
tember 9 took the offensive to do
our best TO relieve Poland. Between
tie Saar and the Vosges We ap-
preached the Siegfried Line, which
took the form there, as you know,
of a bulge We prepared to attack
Saarbruecken. But it was rapidly
becoming obvious that Poland would
soon be PROSTATE. Therefore, the
bulk of German forces committed
against her would rapidly be directed
against us. 1t was a matter of only
Is days to bring them from east to
west.
To be sure, the French forces we
had maSsed on our northeastern
front, strengthened by British divi-
Sions and those we had withdrawn
from the Alps and North Africa
by reason of Italys expected neu-
trality - obviously balanced the
forces the Germans could concen-
trate against us. There were some
80 divisions on each side. But our
enemies had complete air superb !
ority.
Therefore, we couldn't dream of
continuing a frontal attack on the
Siegfried Line. Especially because
while the bulk of our forces were
thus engaged in the Palatinate, the
Germans, on whom scruples never
weigh heavily, could invade Belgium
and outf1ank at one stroke the main
mass of our armies.
Waited for Invasion of Belgium.
Could We, moreover, pass the win
ter in the open field facing an
enemy situated in the Siegfried
Line, subject to his action, his artil- |
lery and air power? There was only
one logical solution: To withdraw
behind our frontier and to profit
from the Maginot Line, outstanding
our strength in order to meet the
eventual German maneuver through
Belgium.
The transfer of our troops was
done in four nights after September
80 without the Germans discover
ing it. We left only some rear
guards in the Notifications. We
were lucky that the secret was so
we'll kept. 1t was only on October
Is that our enemies discovered what
had been done and attacked ele-
ments that had been left in contact
with them. These fell back without
accepting combat, as was foreseen.
| If the Germans had followed up
beyond the border, we could have
counterattacked, supported by our
system of Notifications, but they

from it by preparing for the storm
coming in the spring. I still repeat
this. The government told it to
Parliament in secret meetings.
But the nation never understood
it as it should have. The artisans
of the defensive let it be understood
that the war could be continued
without any battles. 1t was perfect
for enemy propaganda in all forms
and for the work of defeatiSts and
FaScists.
From this came the expression
funny war" that you remember and
which, was in fact so funereal.
There was nothing especially funny
about it.
The truth is that we had to await
the war effort of our British allies
and the events as they developed
proved that we had to await also
the effort Of all the great democ-
racieS.

still impossible to pass through Bel
gium and Luxembourg. 1t would
have been absurd to go over to the
offensive again on the Siegfried
Line-an offensive we had had to
abandon. The Germans still were
reinforcing it. We could only en-
vision that same line policy we
already knew, remembering the
winters of 1914 to 1918; to profit
from the time at our disposal to
complete the organization of our
positions; to perfect our reserve
formations, and at the same time
continuing through patrol actions
to keep the troops fit and in condi-
ton and to train them and instruct
them about the enemy forces that
confronted us.
Had we the right to go into a
partially important attack? But for
what results? That wouldn't have
improved our situation in any re-
spect. Quite the contrary. Should
we in this way renew the mistakes
of 1915 for which we had been bit
terly reproached and which had
been so expensive in men, without
achieving any appreciable advan-
tages? Hadn't our experience con-
demned such piecemeal attacks?

Included in the curriculum are
lectures on germs, sanitary prac-

of the lectures and show correct

One feature of the program is
that if student is carried too far

he may resume where he left off
when he returns. However, no pu-
