Fremont Older Americans, with comparatively small troubles, may find comfort In reading about Greece, where government airplanes are bomb- fag-government bat- tleshlps, seized by rebels. From the Averoflf, pride of the Greek navy, “flames rose high” when a 250-poirnd baby bomb struck her deck. What would happen If a 5,000- pound bomb struck such a ship? Arthar BrUbane Ancient names taking you back to school days are scattered through Greek civil war reports. Venizelos, a true Greek patriot, supporting the revolution, dwells on the little island of Crete, where the Minotaur, half hu man, half bull, used tb live and de vour youths and maidens from Athens. In i this world of trouble, something must explode somewhere. Itamsay MacDonald tells the com mons that Germany’s military activity compels Britain to *e<fend her boun daries of “imperial 4** protection” to the banks of the Rhine. Armies of men mean nothing. Floating ships mean little. A while ago Lord Rother- mere, warning his country usefully, as his brother,- Lord Northcliffe, did in the big war, was telling the British that they must have at least 5,000 fighting planes. His advice, at first ridiculed, is now taken seriously and Britain will have the planes. i Old American methods that have built up thls’country, such as it is, are called out of date by leading minds in Washington. Mr. Richberg, supposed to be closest to the President in thought, tells a Miami audience “the World war marked the passing of a civilization.” What kind of civilization will take its place? With all possible respect for pro fessors and reformers, you wonder if they cun, offhand, manufacture a better one.

It Is deep-chest ed, short-haired, possesses a w'orld of stamina and courage—and .Is a one- maq dog. - Just recently .the dog played an Im portant part in 'the capture of two es caped convicts from the reformatory, Lund said. He indicated that dogs of this type are to be issued to guards on Alcatraz island, the United States “Devil’s Isle,” according to present plans. Dog Captures Two. “On my command to search,” said Lund, “the dog led our party to a heavy undergrowth where the escaped men were hidden. I said ‘charge,’ and the dog ran toward the clump. The two men surrendered before the dog reached the undergrowth. I then stopped the animal by shouting ‘halt.’ ” The dog assigned to Lund is one of two kept at the reformatory. It has been in his care since a year ago, when he went to Morristown, N. J., to train with the animal. “The dog is my ponstant companion,” Lund explained, “and obeys only my commands. These dogs are trained that way. They will obey their, keep er’s orders to the letter, but will not heed a stranger,” If anyone, either man or woman, ap proaches the prison guard, the dog im mediately places himself between his master and the oncoming party. Lund said the dogs are not vicious and will not attack without reason. If the quarry shows fight, then the dogs fight. How They Are Trained. “They are trained not to attack a man armed with a club,” Lund said 1 . “They circle the man at a safe dis tance until their master arrives.” The dogs are trained to'disarm a man by clamping their jaws on the wrist of the gun hand* . “A clever trick mastered by most of these animals,’V^aid Lund, “is their fnethod of cpfnbat when the quarry shows fightf My dog throws the full weight el his body against the man’s leg cktsest to him and then grabs the other leg. This usually upsets the an.” Lund says t^e dogs are bred in Switzerland and are used by the signal j corps of the Swiss army. Albert Mueh- ler, a Swiss, who trained the dogs of Mussolini’s police, is in charge of~?he training field-hr Xew Jersey.—^——— "I never whip my dog,” Lund said. ‘•’If, he • disobeys a conimand, I throw h small chain, which I always carry in my pocket, at him. and he will come and place ids nose on my knee—his way. of saying that he is sorry. Then I command hjm to retrieve the chain.” ^“^IMPROVED UNIFORM INTERNATIONAL UNO AY I chool Lesson (By REV. P. B FITZWATER, D. D„ Member of Faculty. Mood/ Btblo Institute of Chtcairo.) (R.

Crates of chattering monkeys, un loaded from express cars at Los An geles a few months ago, sighaled science’s latest major offensive in its ceaseless war on disease. Infantile paralysis, flaring up in nearby desert valleys, was rapidly sweeping across southern California. To the'stricken area, famous medi- Havfng given instructions to citizens (2:13, 14), servants (2:18), wives (3:1-6), and husbands (3:7), Peter now sets forth the attitudes afid mo tives'^ich are required for the per- fection of all^ the relations of human life. _ I. Characteristics of the Christian Life (w. 8-11). These find expression in personal at titudes and manner of living. 1. Toward fellow believers (v. 8). a. “A|l of one mind.” This means' unity of thought and' feeling. Chris tians being united to the one Lord Jesus Christ, animated by the one Holy Spirit and governed by the one Book, the Holy Scriptures, will Inev itably come Into possession of tike- mlndedness. b. “Having compassion one of an other.” This, means more than sym pathy in times of sorrow. It means the sharing of Joys as well as sorrows. c. “Love as brethren.” Being of the one family, a common affection should dominate its members. d. “Be pitiful.” This means tender heartedness. expressing Itself in sym pathy toward the helpless and needy e. “Be courteous.” This means friendliness, Christian politeness. 2. Toward the world (vv. 9-11). a. “Not rendering evil for evil.” Pos itively expressed, ‘'this means doing good for evil. The natural man_ ren ders evil for evil. The believer has been called thus to manifest the spirit of Christ. b. “Eschew evil and do good” (v. 11). This means to shun or turn away from evil. It means the bending away from one’s course at the approach of evil and the positive doing of good. —Mgppjj peace, and ensue it," It is not enough for a believer to refrain from conflict. He must bend every energy in tbe direction of peace. II. Incentives'' to Christian Living (vv. 12-14). l..“The eyes .of. -the~Lor& are over. There la a heaven, of course, and Fre mont Older is there.

Such costumes are unwise “sales manship.” The old-fashioned muslin dress ddwn to the ankle, op to the Xeck, aroused romantic interest and uncertainty. The two half coconut Bhell costumes cause the eligible young man to say, “If that is all there Is'to it, I shall postpone matrimony." * On an island in the Pearl river, In habitants of a Chinese fishing village dreaded and disliked a small settle ment where 24 lepers lived nearby.

Austria.—Anton Haupt, a tliirty-four-year-old unmarried worker, uttempted to commit suicide In order to create a Job for his best friend, a married man with 'three children. Haupt may live; his friend will get work. Both men worked in a local brewery. When the friend of Haupt was dis charged for reasons of economy Haupt vainly implored the manager to fire him in order to create a vacancy. Haupt thereupon fired a revolver into his head. He is seriously Injured and probably will lose an eye. His self-sacrifice induced the man agement of the brewery to reinstate the discharged man, while Innsbruck labor unions will find suitable employ ment for Haupt if he recovers. cal specialists hurried from all parts of the country.
