Gallant Da findira of Verdun. The artillery fire di?<i out. at?d thert was a pause t hut seemed like the sud den end of the world. Then froiu the 40 bells, high In the towers of the old cathedrhl at Verdun, ? pealed forth those silvery tones that proclaimed again, "Peace on earth." The eryilstlce had come. Blowly the great doors of the ca thedral opened and in rushed tWOrfllled soldiers. Doctor Maurer of the Red Triangle, says a writer in Association Men, quietly walked to the altar rati and knelt there. Captains, lieutenants and soldiers reached for tt^e bell ropes, and he feared the opportunity for religious service was lost. But they ?aw the lonely figure and came into Uie choir space. Aa he rose all was quiet. "Boys," hr said, *1 believe we all want to sing pud that we ougfet to sing the Dotology? v ? At its close Doctor Maurer raised his hands, and Mohammedans, Catho lies, Protestants and Jews bowed their heads and fell on their knees. Amid the ruins 600 soldiers knelt ? Moham medans bumping their heads on the stones, Catholics devoutly crossing themselves, and Jewh end Protestants with hands clasped, faCos shining and eyes lifted. Doctor Maurgr led In that everwon derful prayer, "Our Father Which Art Id Heaven." u?> then suggested that the Americans sing, "My Country, 'TIs of Thee," while the English sang "God Save the King." At the close of the singing the French soldiers pushed for ward and sang, as only Frenchmen can sing, the "Marsetllfiiae." The French general came forward and took Doctor Maurer's hands. "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 w - ; ' . . . . . ' Guilds Formed of Members of 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 it's own union, many of which are of long ancestry: the esnaf, or guild, of the . shoemakers, tor example, Is sakl to have been granted power to judge nnd punish Its own members for puftlic offenses as long ago as the six teenth century, iu 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 thftt particular occupation. The business of the or ganization 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, tW esnafs will probably con-' tlnue 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, th? schools of Dunkerque, like those of Reims', continued In session, and new schoolhouses were built. 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. Jf 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. Peanut Now Important Crop. The peanut has accomplished won ders for agricultural development, and has Increased production by acres and doubled the value of land In many sections. It similarly helped Alabama through the crisis when the appear ance of the weevil played havoc in the cotton fields of that state. It has done well throughout t^ South, and Virginia, which foijmeifl^stood first In its production, has sunk to fifth place. Tie peanut oil Industry has added to the value of the crop, and this year, the total harvest and value were the greatest ever recorded, in spite of a reduction In acreage. The once de spised peanut has proved itself a valu able agricultural asset to the South and the country, and the end Is no* yet.?^ew Orleans Times-Picayune. Everyone There Named Levy.
