SOLDIERS LIKED THE PRINCE
Heir to British Throne Fond of Min
gling With the Fighters, When
He Was Perm tted.
In the front line :i t'muuliun soldiei
was building a fire one cold night of
late autumn. Out of the night behind
him came a footstep. 11 turned, and
hem hie doubly alert wl n he -,iw that
the matt was not an officer of Ids rogi
meiii. The visitor JiI>l>r<>:t■ In d the
Ida/e, held his Imnds on: met it and
said:
'"This lire certainly looks good to
me.”
The tone was pleasant enough, and
suspicion was almost mm fined when
the voice went on :
"Have you wood enough'; If yew
haven’t I'll get you some m
The fire builder felt some regret that
any suspicion whatever re a mm, hut
there had been a specie.: warn:; ■_
against stratigers not ot "w*.. own
regiment. In respot so ti, he was
ahout to question the in wooine1 How
ly. when an olllcer wl om In.; did ’ t te.\
came within the Hrelit circle and ad
dressed tile stranger:
“Your royal highness, it i ■ host that
you return to the automobile ; t met ."
And the prinpe of Wales r. Im tn•;;
left the lire and returued to the ph;
where lie otticially hclonged. It tvrs
not the first time ite had l-f! that plan*
of his own accord ami gone forward
among the men. The Fnnadian who
tells ihe story learned afterward ih
the prince's staff had its !.->t fall t<
keep him from breaking :■ . y from
the official circle prcscriiieti for hi
and mingling with the men on their
own ground.
MUST HAVE ENVIED CG-RACES
Pathetic Happening in EngPsh Court
That Marked the Observance
of Armistice Day
The great clocks of London —
om eleven strokes. The city la .
a~ silent as though it were a - ' uo
Pont]mil miraculously swept e. -,:n
its ashes. Motor cars and in t ■
creaked to sudden stops. i‘.;i
stood like graven blue images at h
posts. Pedestrians doffed tlteit- l.t.is
:iin! Stood as tliough they laid not
known motion for centuries It v as
Vmiistiee day and the city was doing
honor to those youths who had \j 1
rieneed the Great Adventure.
In ;t dingy courtroom a murd -r trhil
(■ante to n sudden halt. Judge, counsel
witnesses and the prisoner stood, ami
for two minutes, with bowed head, lid
silent reverence to those pop] y
wreathed graves of France. P.efmv the
prisoner llickered visions of tliat strut
France only one year before. IF again
saw the faces of comrades he had lov ed
and whom lie had watched in the throes
of death. Incidents of that last des
perate sprint across Xo Man’s Land,
with death on every side, came hack to
him. Again lie heard the shout with
which the trenches had greeted the
armistice. He lmd come safely fhrongh,
and now—
The two minutes ended. The city
came out of its trance. The somber
voice of the judge resumed—“and shall
hang by the neck until dead.”
Poison Gas to Fight Squirrels.
Experiments in tin* use of poison gas
in exterminating grain-eating ground
squirrels are under way, according to a
report of the county horticultural com
mission to the Eos Angeles hoard of
supervisors.
At the same time it was announced
that Los Angeles county lias sold its
surplus stock of saccharine and strych
nine to Orange county in order that
riie neighboring county can join in tie*
campaign being waged against tlie de
structive ground squirrels.
According to Horticultural Commis
sion* r Kyan, the use of poison gas is
necessary at this time because the
squirrels, which have been practically
eliminated from the worst affected re
gions in the county by the use of pot
sons (luring the past few month-, fa I
to eat the poison at this time, pre
ferring the new vegetable growth.
Bird Preserve Planned.
The proposal to establish an exten
sive w ild bird preserve on the north
ern shore of Lake Erie is gaining wide
favor in Canada. Something must i»e
done at once, it is urged by bird lov
ers, to preserve the wild fowl and in
sectivorous birds, or they will be
come as extinct ur the wild pigeon.
There are strict game regulations in
the province, but the establishment of
a large preserve would assist the leg
islation. There is already a nucleus
of the proposed area in Romh ;ui park,
and it is planned to extend tins along
the lake shore west for mile
Lcndon Cats Victims of Plague.
The outbreak of a disease, which
has many symptoms to influenza. Is
causing the death of cats by the hun
dred in London.
The disease is not thought to be
communicable to human beings, but
distinguished surgeons are unable* to
confirm the exact nature. It spreads
with amazing rapidity, and the symp
toms are said to resemble closely that
of poisoning, except that death usu
ally takes place within two days.
Plan Memorial for Poe.
Taking as its inspiration a sugges
tion of Rlasco Ibanez, the Spanish
novelist, the Bronx Society of Art and
Science lias decided to erect a memo- i
rial in honor of Edgar Allan 1’oe, ]
whose cottage in Poe park, the Bronx, j
Senor Ibanez visited the other day.
The Spanish writer started the fund j
with a contribution of $100.—New :

i Just Where and How
Is the Money
to be Spent?
A businesslike Answer to
a businesslike Question
THIRTY denominations cooperating in the Inter
church World Movement have budgeted their
needs. No business could have done it more scientifi
cally.
They have united to prevent the possibility of duplica
tion or waste. At least a million dollars will be saved
by the fact that thirty individual campaigns are joined
in one united effort.
Each denomination has arranged its budget under six
main heads:
I FOR THE CHURCH'S WORK
I AT HOME. A score ofitemscome
under this head Consider only one,
Five and a half million people in the
United States cannot even read and
write the English language Who is
to carry forward this vast work of
Americanisation if the church does
not?
2 FOR HOSPITALS AND HOMES
Every year thousands of men and
women seriously ill are turned away
from Church hospitals because of
lack of room. The children’s homes
are compelled to turn away more
children than they can receive
T FOR HIGHER EDUCATION. Of
O the 450,000 Apnerican students in
institutions of higher yrade. one
half are in institutions founded and
supported by theChurches Many of
these institutions have had nogreat
endowment campaigns, but their
needs are just as pressing as the
needs of larger schools, and you
have only to read their Hstof alum
ni and alumnae to measurethevalue
of their contribution to America.
A i OR RELIGIOUS TRAINING. At
■ least 12,000,000children and roung
people under 25 years of age areen
term" American life without any
religious training lit all. Remember
ing the laith of Washington and
Lincoln, do you think that America
will continue to produce Washing
tons and Lincolns if faith dies out
of the hearts of its youth?
* FOR THE CHURCH’S WORK
t/ ABROAD. Influenza came first
from the Orient thirty years ago;
nearly all plagues are Oriental
plagues. So long as China has only
one physician to every 400,000 people
the Orient will continue to be a
menace. So long as one-third of the
babies of India die before their sec
ond year our own babies are not
safe. A Christian doctor or teacher
sent abroad is working for America
as truly as though he worked at
home.
6 PREACHERS* SALARIES. The
preacher is called the “forgotten
man," and well he may be. Eight
out often preachers are fcpaid less
than $20 a week 1
Each denomination has its own detailed budget, and
will administer its own funds. Your pastor has copies
of the budget: examine them for yourself. In the week of
April 25th-May 2nd you will be given your opportunity
to help. You can doit with the full satisfaction of know
ing that every dollar of your gift has its post assigned
to it in advance.
Every dollar for better America and a better world
When your church calls on you give—and give with
your heart as well as your pocket-book.
