The artillery Are died out. and there was • pause that seemed like the sud den end of the world. Then from the 40 bells, high in the towers of the old cathedral at Verdun, pealed forth those silvery tones that proclaimed again. “Peace on earth.” The armistice had come. /Slowly the great doors of the ca thedral opened and In rushed 600 allied soldiers. Doctor Maurer of the Ked Triangle, says a writer In Association1 Men. quietly walked to the altar rail and knelt there. Captains, lieutenants and soldiers reached for the bell ropes, and be feared the opportunity for religious service was lost. But they saw the lonely figure and came Into the choir 8|iace. As he rose sll was quiet. “Boys.“ he said, “I believe we all want to sing and that we ought to Sing the Doxologj.” At Its close Doctor Maurer raised his hands, and Mohammedans, Catho lics, Protestants and Jews bowed their heads and fell ou their knees. Amid the ruins 600 soldiers knelt— Moham medans bumping their beads on the stones. Catholics devoutly crossing themselves, and Jews and Protestants with hands clasped, faces shining and eyes lifted. Doctor Maurer led In that everwon- derful prayer, “Our Father Which Art la Heaven.” He then suggested that tbs Americans sing. “My Country, T ls of Thee,“ while the English sang “God Save the King.” At the close of the singing the French soldiers poshed for ward and sang, as only Frenchmen can sing, the “Marseillaise." The French general came forward aad took Doctor Maurer’s handa “I want to thank you." he said, “for lead ing these men on this occasion of grace to offer praise to God for the deliver^ ance of France and for the safety of the world." OLD TURKISH TRADE UNIONS Guilds Formed of Members ef Various Industrial Vocations Common in Constantinople. - Whatever may be the eventual gov ernment of Constantinople, the count less guilds or corporations created by members of the various Industrial vo cations followed by the population will probably respond slowly to the change. In Constantinople, says a writer on Turkish life, every trade and calling has Its own union, many of which are of long ancestry: the esnaf. or guild, of the' shoemakers, for example. Is said to have been granted pbwer to Judge and punish Its own members for public offenses as long ago as the six teenth century. In return for some service which It then rendered Sulei man the Magnificent. Organized for the common benefit as traders or work ers, the members of the guilds are ad mitted Irrespective of race or religion so long as they follow that particular occupation. The business of the or ganisation is conducted In lodges, the officers of which have been held re sponsible for the good behavior of members. Although future conditions In Constantinople will doubtless modi fy them, the esoafs will probably con tinue to be a power. Schools of Dunkerque. One of the things that deeply Im pressed the company of Journalists from some twenty different nations who recently visited Dunkerque In a party was the story of the public schools. Dunkerque, although It es caped occupation, was under constant bombardment; the enemy at one time and another had the city under fire by land, sea and air, but, except for a short time In the beginning when the buildings were used for war purposes, the schools of Dunkerque, like those of Reims, continued In session, and new schoolhouses were bnttt. When ever the city was bombarded, the pu pils. big and little, marched to the cel lar In orderly procession, and some times the entire session was held there. If a schoolhouse was partly shattered. It was repaired at once, and school promptly resumed; nothing, in short was allowed to Interfere with the con tinuity of the schools of Dunkerque.

A feature of Persian life which Illus trates the simple and superstitious nuture of the people of the mideast Is their tolerance of the dervishes. These weird, g.vpayllke beggars Infest the cities and annoy the village folk In passing from one place to another, ac cording to their vows of Itinerancy. These are not the whirling dervishes of cirrus fame. Whirling would be too energetic a form of worship for the members of this most ancient leisure class. Their greatest exertion consists of walking slowly and blowing a horn to announce their presence. The dervish of Persia la known by his begging bowl, conical cap, animal skin cape and club. The weapon, which la usually a stick driven through with nails. Is carried conspicuously. It fact, it seems unpleasantly ready for use when Its owner calmly de mands tribute. It Is true that there Is small danger of its use, even If elms are refused, but a refusal how ever polite and apologetipal, Is sure to arouse the wrath of the dervish. His vocabulary may be unintelligible, but the meaning of his threats and proph ecies Is usually understood. Fellow, citizens of the dervish tribe prefer te make a gift at any cost In ‘order to avoid having the wrath of heaven called down upon them In the maaterly language of an experienced heaven In voker. The dervish makes himself useful to the community honored by his pres ence by telling fortunes and stories, reciting prayers, selling charms and even curing the sick by blowing his sacred breath on them— all In return for which he turns over to his chief after deducting a living wage.

A fter applying the Ad-On-A-Tire ( you cannot tell the old tire from a new, except tin t it is over-size and'more puncture-proof than a new tire. • GIVEN NAMES OF PRESIDENTS The M iller Ad-O n-A-Tire is built like a tire without beads. It is made of tough, buoyant rubber with several layers of fabric. T h e side walls completely cover the tire and clinch under the rim. And it also has the famous tread that is Geared-to-the-Road. Historical Appellations Summits of Mountain Rang« In Old Vermont. Heretofore when one spoke of the presidential range everyone — svory Now Englander, at least— knew, with out further particularising, that Mount Washington and Its attendant summits was the subject, writes A llen Cham berlain In the Boston Evening Tran script. Henceforth one must needs be njore specific, since during the last year a rival presidential range has appeared on the map In Vermont. That region, hitherto generally spoken of as the Bread Loaf Mountain section, lying between Mlddlebury gap and the Lin- coln-Warren pass, waa but little known, -except-In Its southerly portion, until-the Green Mountain club men ran their Skyline trail through. They found there a maze o f unnamed sum mits grouped as In council, and seem ingly worthy of being recognized as individuals of distinction. Just north of these heights Is the rugged mass whose summits have been known for more than half a century as Mounts Abraham and Lincoln. Quite naturally the idea of a new presiden tial range arose and, with great parti san restraint, four of the neighboring mountains were therefore named Mount Grant, Mount Grover Cleve land, Mount Roosevelt, and Mount Woodrow Wilson. Poisoned by Ink. Behind the scenes at the Globe the ater, where, to the delight of all play goers, Mias Violet Vanbrugh hss scor ed another wonderful success In ’Trimmed In Scarlet,” the famous ac tress told me this amusing story of her early days. a “W e were playing ‘Romeo and Jul iet’ on tour,” she said, “and one night In the poison scene, Juliet found her self without a phial. The audience was waiting, and In despair she snatched an ink-bottle from the stage carpenter, and gasping ‘Is It emptyf rushed o n .----------- ---------------------- “But when the hapless lady raised the bottle to her lips and tipped It downwards, a stream of ink descended over her chin and down her white dress.

In meeting the post-war needs of women the Tonng Women’s Christian Aasoclatlon stands as an Instrument of terries, tested and proven by war, and ergaa- ixed to meet the manifold problems of peace. “Because of Its fifty odd years of ex perience In meeting fundamental prob lems affecting girls, the Young Wom en’s Christian Association la an organi zation particularly fitted to exert a stabilizing influence upon the troubled times through a consistent program of service for girls and women. “American women are asking how they may share In the world’s recon struction. They can do so by enlisting the support of their communities for this World Service Program, which will Insore to the world a healthier and bet ter womanhood. “This campaign of the T. W. C.
