Clo?? of Trying
And Difficult Probleir
.'aria, March 11.?The work of re
turning to the United States the bod
iea of American soldiers who died ii
F ranco was completed today with i
final si ipmcnt of 1,500 bodies frorr
Brest for New York. This brings tht
total number of American bodies re
turned to 45,023.
The simple announcement of the
completion of the task marks the close
of one of the most trying and difficult
problems ever placed before the
American army. The Americar
Graves Registration Service, the special
branch of the army organized for
the purpose, began work in February,
1920.
St. Quentin; Beulcau Wood, near
Chateau-Thierry; and the Argonne or
Romange cemetery near Romangnesous-Montfaucon.
For the latter a scheme has been
worked out which will make it very
much like Arlington cemetery. Each
cemetery is to ha\e a rest house and
chapel for visitors and every grave
will be marked with a uniform headstone.
One of the most touching features
c^f the four cemeteries has been the
v* ay in which French people have
made them their own.
Sunday never goes by without
scores cf French people visiting them
and placing (lowers on the graves.
This manifestation of friendship and
appreciation caused many relatives to
leave the bodies in France.
The beautifying of the fields of
honor will lake two years but a great
deal of preliminary work has already
been done and the cemeteries in their
present state m*e impressive.
When the Graves Registration Service
began its work, the bodies were
Agents of that service will now go
to Fngland and assemble 97 American
bodies destined for shipment to America.
These were American soldiers
who died in widely-scattered parts of
Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England.
Five hundred other bodies of Americans
whose relatives have decided to
leave them in England, will be concentrated
in a beautiful little permanent
cemetery at. Brookwood, Surrey,
England, the British government having
given the s:te. This work will be
completed by July.
An extensive scheme of beautification
has been developed by a -special
Fine Arts Commission for the four
cemeteries in France which are to
be the permanent resting places of
nearly 30,000 Americans who fell in
the world war. Original plans called
for the expenditure of nearly $3,000,000
but in the interest of government
economy this sum has been reduced
to about $1,000,000.
Work will begin immediately after
this appropriation is made by congress.
Col. II. F. Rethers, who has
been in charge of the Graves Registration
work, probably will direct the
work.
The four fields of honor are Suresnes
cemetery, near Paris; Bony, near
in more than 500 cemeteries scattered
in every part of France, Alsace-Lorraine
and Germany. Several thousand
men were employed under the direc
tion of American army officers.
Concentration of bodies in the fo'ur
fields of honor has been completed.
The Graves Registration Service will
maintain a permanent office in Paris

Officers Killed
Chicago, March 20.?Twenty-one
police officers were killed while on
duty during the past three years, according
to the committee on police
of the Chicago Crime Commission.
Of these six were slain in 1921, ten in
1920, nnd nine in 1919. Among the

No Grounds For a Duel
i
Havana, Cuba, Mar?.h 13.?A tiib
unal of honor recently decided not t<

pedes put itself on record as opposei
( to the idea that a public functional-:
could be held personally to accoun
for his otticiul acts. The tribuna
ruled that there was no grounds fo
a duel.
Senor Cespedes, who, had challeng
ed General Menocal, is the son of t
noted Cuban patriot.
The tribunal was composed of rep
resentatives of Mr. Cespedes am
General Menocal and included a con
gressnian. a senator and Major Ar
' mando Andre, Captain of the Tort o
Havana and an authority on duelling
The incident has just come to light
through the publication of letters ex
hanged between the principals ant
the seconds.
On February 12, shortly after tht
former president's return from a vis
it to Europe and the United States
he received a challenge from Mr,
Cespedes based on the assumptior
that the latter had *been affronter
personally by the then president's re
fusal four years ago to permit hitv
to leave the prison, whore he was con
fined to visit his dying father. Al
that time Mr. Cespedes was held foi
having taken tip arms against the
Menocal administration.
Cespedes asserted that the presi
dent may have had the right to imprison
him, even to shoot him, bu
did not have the right to embitter tin
last hours of his father. For thti?
reason, Cespedes stated he avoilei

At the meeting of the tribunal o'

I Examinations Held
Under New Plan
Atlantic City, March IS.?Examinations
were held here last week which
will mark a revolution in edueationa1
requirments for the Methodist ministry.
according to leaders of the
demonstration. Heretofore men with
out college or seminary advantages
who have preached on trial have been
admitted to the ministry after submitting
reports on prescribed reading.
This plan has been replaced by
a correspondence course supplemented
by summer school and culminat.
ing in examinations.
The examinations held here were
the first under the new plan. Undergraduates
failing in the examinations
will remain on trial until examinations
are passed. It is believed that
the new system will bar from the
ministry many inadequately educated
men who hitherto have been slipping
in, Methodist leaders say. It
represents n virtual reversal of the
former policy.
At the same time an effort is made
to provide efficient guidance for candidates
with the will and ability to repair
lack of advantages by systematic
study. The plan was decided
upon by the General Conference.
> The course of stud v. which is di.
rected by Rev. Dr. Allen McRossic
of New York, is mapped out by r
commission appointed by the General
Conference under the supervi
sion of bishops appointed by the
board of bishops. Written work b
submitted through the year by th<
candidates to a board of examiner^
for criticism, corrections and suggee
tions. Summer schools have been es
tablished in over 45 conferences
They are conducted at seats of edu
rational institutions and have term?
of at least 10 days. Attendance at
these schools is required of the cor
respondence school students.
Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble And Never
Suspect It
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.
Judging from reports from druggists
who nre. constantly in direct
touch with the public, there is one
preparation that has been very successful
in overcoming these condi
tions. The mild and healing influence
of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its
remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for-one ol
the prominent Life Insurance Companies,
in an interview on the subject
made the astonishing statement thai
one reason why so ipany applicants
for insurance are rejected is because
kidney trouble is so common in American
people, and the large majoritj
of those whoso applications are declined
do not even suspect that the\
have the disease. Dr. Kilmer'?
Swamp-Root is on sn1<? nt all drug
stores in bottles of two sizes, modi
um and large.

(his great preparation send ton cent;

Battle Agftinit Ignorance
And Opposition
0 Limn, IVru, March 18.?The tamt
paign conducted jointly by the Pe
iuvian government and the Rockej
feller Foundation which hus resulted
y in ridding the Pacific coast of South
1 America from a scourge of yellow
I fever was a test of human endurance
c and also a battle against ignorance
and opposition.
"Our chief obstacle," said Dr. Hon,
ry Hanson, director of the International
Health Board, "was the ignor.
ance on the part of the public. The
1 inhabitants in general did not wish
. to accept the diagnosis of yellow fev.
er, saying that it was pernicious ma(
iaria with vomiting of blood. However,
there was a sufficient number of
t medical men there who had seen yellow
fever before and was satisfied as
i to the nature of the disease.
In one town the populace rose in
, 'i rms against the enforced closing of
moving picture theaters and churches
and mobbed the sanitary office intending
to kill the director in that dis,
triet and stop the campaign. The men
I in the office escaped through a hole in
the roof of the building and troops
! were called out to end the riot.
The epidemic continued severe in
hat place for Dr. Hanson withdrew
all his sanitary forces to protect a
, section of the country where they1
were more needed.
An idea of the magnitude of the
campaign may be gained from the fact
that I)r. Hanson's assistants made
move than 800,000 house visits and inspected
more than 1,000,000 water
. containers.
After yellow fever was stamped
>ut in fiunyaquil in 1919 the disease
stealthily spread to the northern
provinces oi reru and in early 1920,
Dr. Henry R. Carter was sent to coni'>at
it. He believed he had it stopped,
but. instead, it had crept into the Department
of Lambayequc.
Upon learning of its reappearance
the Rockefeller Foundation asked the
Peruvian government if help was
needed and President Leguia accepted
their offer. Dr. Hanson, who made a
name for himself in sanitary work in
Panama, has directed the campaign as
a join project for the Foundation and
for the Peruvian government, each
paying -">0 per cent of the expenses.
The outside world will little realize
1 the tremendous piece of work quietly
carried on by this American doctor,
who himself fell sick with the disease
he was fighting.
In January, 1921, the epidemic was
officially recognized and the campaign
begun. The disease became so firmly
established that Dr. Hanson and his
corps of assistants could not check it
until it had spread to 37 of the principal
towns of the Departments of
Lambayeque and Libertad.
"The inhabitants were dying by the
hundreds," said Dr. Hanson, "the
death rate being between 25 and 60
per cent but it was a physical impossibility
for us to attend to individual
cases because of lack of personnel.
' Our job was to prevent the spread of
the epidemic.
"We organized our campaign on a
military basis," continued Dr. Hanson.
1 "The job was so big that there was no
other way to handle, it. I had about
? 100 employes, in addition to a detachment
from the Peruvian army. My
American assistants have been Major
C. H. Dunn and Messrs. M. M. Seely,
I I. W. Pickett and John P. Corrigan.
Colonel Vergne of the French Ar/ny
. Mission to Peru was a very valuable
. adviser and helper in the campaign."

Ancient Civilisation
Haa Boon Discovered
Philadelphia, March 20.?Presence 1
of a civilization dating back to 1700 r
B. C. has been discovered at the site
of Beisan, the Beth-Shan of the c
Bible, according to word received here ^
from Dr. Clarence B. Fisher, head of *
the University of Pennsylvania archaeologists
working in the Iloly \
land. *
The reports stated that relics of *
this civilization were found in the
seventh sub-cellar of the hill of Bei- 1
san, and that on top of it were piled s
| in distinct strata six other cities or
I civilizations. However, extensive 1
digging thus far has proceeded only v
to the third level, uncovering the remains
first of an Arab city, below it ^
a Byzantine community, containing 1
pretentious edifices, and below this
the ruins of a Roman city. The most
important find was hieroglyphic stella *
of the fourteenth century as yet undeciphered.
Dr. Fisher reported he 0
hoped to find one or more of the iron
chariots for which the place was famous
in Bibical history.
The University of Pennsylvania v'
has engaged in this sort of work since: '[
1889 when the University Museum j *'
was founded as the Department ol i
Archaeology. This institution be-!
came the beneficiary of the results1,
of four Buhylonian expeditions which i
operated on the site of Nipp for ex-; j.
tensive periods between 1888 audi .
1900.
The Temple of Bel, probably th
oldest known edifice in th e world,
was brought to light in these investi- ^
gations, and the collections of 20,000 j
clay tablets brought to this country,
made the university a shrine for dclvers
into ancient history. Portions of!

M. A. Snow, who was chief of the

Snow, now in Seattle, told recently of ^
th initiation work, which included a
trip over the "Chilkoot Pass" in the ^
lodge room.
"Lascelles, attired in a 'parka' and
nuikluks,' the Arctic shirt and shoes,
was Sjtarted over the trail," Mr. Snow
said. "Amid the howl of 'malamute' A

Spring Plowing For Cotton
Clemson College, March 20.?The ^
first step in getting an early crop of
cotton is to plant on a well prepared
firm seed bed, according to Prof. C.
P. Blackwell, agronomist, who cautions
farmers, in plowing land for ?
cotton at this sepson not to plow too I
deen. This caution is esneeiallv an- I
plicable to heavy soils such as are
common in the Piedmont section of
this state. If these heavy soils are
plowed deep just before planting
time, they will not settle sufficiently
to give a quick germination and an
early crop. While these soils need
deep plowing, it should be given in the
fall or winter and never just before
planting. ]
More than 3,000 widows and nearly
10,000 children will share in the $1,400,000
to be disbursed this year under
the Ontario Mother's Pension system.
