l'RENCH SENTENCE WOMEN -
TO DEATH SAL GERMANS
. Berlin, Dee. 33. "French
court-
martial hare sentenced to death two
more women," the semi-o metal news
agency stated today. . "One Is named
Dusays and waa born in Calls of a
German mother and Luxemburg;
MM ... , . M
i Bluer, id ovuer is a wiuuw uun,
Tichelly, of Swiss parentage. - They
are accused ot informing Germany
about operations ' of the French
army. '
The statement declares the French
probably will shoot both women, "a
they already have done In numerous
other cases." )
Object Lessen In Phonetics.
The Arabic, which boasts three sep
arate sonnds resembling the English
letter "h." lacks the eoulvslent nf "n-
therefore "p" and b" are often con-
rosea. Tne late venerable Dr. BUsa of
the Syrian Protestant college once en
tered a classroom where a natlv
teacher waa trying In vain to teach a
student tbe difference between "p" and'
V aj the Christian Herald. Dr. Bliss
undertook tne case. Gathering up some
chalk dust In his hand and boldlng his
hand to his lips, he spoke to the stu
dent: .
"Do yon see this dust la my hand?
When 1 say b' I do not expel my breath,
and the chalk dual stays where It Is.
Bnt when I say V I blow the dust all
away He did. He blew It all over
the enlightened youth.
