RULES FOR HUNTING
There are a gTeat many fatal accidents
happenning to hunters that
could be avoided by more carefulness.
Some one has suggested the following
rules that if observed would prevent
many accidents.
Every man who carries a gun into
the field this fall should obey the following
rules:
Never shoot at anything until you
know what it is.
Never carry a loaded gun in a vehicle
or boat.
Never point a gun at any human
being.
Never drink intoxicating liquors
when hunting.
Never darw a gun toward you muzzle
first.
Down at Miami, Florida, they
have, or had a person who is an oddity.

so that he had to confess. When ho
was put in jail ho sawed the iron bar:of

must have been of a flexible nature.
MEXICAN AFFAIRS
The Atlanta Constitution sent one
of the ablest men of the staff, Mr
dames A. llolloman, to investigate
conditions in Mexico at first hand.
From one of his letters this extract
is made that gives some sight as tc
the real situation.
There is no government in Mexico
The Carranza regime is merely tin
the revolutionary party at presen
in charge of the government machine,
rv; and maintained by the same forci
of revolutionary arms that put i
there.
There are not less than 100,00<
revolutionists in action and ready fo
action in various parts of Mexico, bu
at present the leaders with one c>

ception, are far apart in their factional
differences. The lack of
co-ordination, therefore, prevents the
revolutionary forces from being effective
at this time in their fight on Carranzu.
All the revolution chiefs in Mexico,
including Carranza, aro inspired more
by the money in the game than by
any deep-rooted partiotism or love of
national freedom.
Of the revolutionists, Villa is the
most popular, and perhaps the strongest
personality, though so lacking in
mental training that it is not probble
that he will ever reach the presidency
of the republic, even though
any revolution that he should head
should be successful.
According to Mr. Holloman, Mexico
is the richest land for its area on
ihe face of the earth in undeveloped
resources, but until the pirates of the
hills and the boss pirates of politics
are put down with her gun powder
government there will be no peace
and no prosperity.
Mr. llollomon went to France for
he ('on titution during the war with
Germany and his letters from the
scene of the conflict were among the
most illuminating and the most notable
of any of tbe war corvespon
dents. The Constitution did a great
service to the country i i p rotating
i the conditions in Mexico by a writer
so well equipped for the important
tusk.
LITTLE SWITZERLAND
1 In a speech in Congress, Senator
Owen, of Oklahoma, made this reference
to the peculiar attitude of Switzerland
during the great world war:
There is one Government in Europe
based on Democracy, surrounded
by belligerent powers?Switzerland,
one-thid German speaking, and yet
having a stability in government that
has remained unshaken decade after
decade, when Europe was hsaken with
wars. The Balkan wars never touched
Switzerland; the wars of 1870-71
di<l not touch Switzerland; this war,
with Switzerland surrounded on all
; aies by warring nations, did not in.
vad.e the land of Switzerland ;and with
its boundaries fixed with a govermenl
of a democracy, with all its laws submitted
to the people in Switzerland
by a referendum, so that no law
should go into effect without the will
. of the people of Switzerland, have
given it a stability that makes Switzerland
a model to the world.
> In the same speech Senator Owei
referred to the great changes taking
. place in Europe, the vanishing ol
kings and monarchies, giving way ti
t liberal forms of government as th?
. result of the defeat of Germany am
the Kaiser.

CHINESE BECOME
SOCIAL PIONEERS
Tbe fiood Fellowship Club has made
Its appearance in society In Hangchow,
China.
It began with the desire of a progressive
young Chinese doctor to give
his compatriots, especially the Christians,
some heulthful form of social Intercourse.
Channels for n good, clean, sdclal
life among Chinese people are very
limited. Unltl recently becoming a
Christian often meant cutting oneself
off from one's friends and relatives,
also from feast days and festivals.
As for Joint meetings of men and women?well,
such a thing was never heard
of In decent society.
The young doctor's plan of hnvlng
a club where men and their wives
might come together to enjoy a good I
time with each other was discouraged
and sniffed at. However, n few people
agreed to he pioneers In the cause of
social intercourse, and Y. \V. C. A. secretaries
agreed to help make the club
a success.
At first the meetings of the club
were laughed at by outsiders and the
whole affair considered a Joke. However,
the members kept on meeting,
first nt one house and then at another.
Soon the men got over the feeling of
strangeness nt stnrting out with their
wives on Tuesday evening for a
friend's home. The women began to
enjoy the outing and to take part In
he discussions?an Intelligent part,
I too?much to the surprise of their hus
1 hands.
The membership grew. The cluh's
fame hognn to spread. At first the discussions
of the cluh were conducted in
English. Soon It became necessary
for them to he carried on in Chinese
so that more of the women could understand
and take part. Many of the
scoffers began to apply for admission.
The members began Indulging in much
friendly chatting and occasionally forgot
their dignity to play Jokes on oiip
another. Finally It became so large
that It had to be divided Into two sec- 1
Hons, which met separately three
Tuesday evenings In the month and on
the fourth Tuesday met together for a
Joint session, with a special program.
Students Just returned from American
and German colleges, an old Buddhlst
scholar who Is particularly Interested
In the discussion on Buddhism
ami Christianity, merchants, railroad
' and government officials compose the
> men's side of the room. The women
are still a hit shy about talking In
I front of so many people, but many of
them show signs of great executive
i ability and power of leadership. They
I are nil well poised, clear thinking hull,
vldunls, who will have n great inflti1
ence on China's future. They discuss
among themselves group meetings In
i ! their various churches, the lack of
s ' amusements for Chinese women, social

service work, subscription Hsts for lbs
orphanage, cake making, types of
tores, baby diets, the latest engagement
and other topics such as one
would bear discussed by a group of
women gathered together any place In
America.
The social part of the evening Is given
over to games, which at first
astound the sober Chinese gentlemen,
but which they take up with great xest
after the first evening. And their
wives enjoy It Just as greatly.
Real American picnics are the latest
thing which the club has tried, and
they are a great success. A Chrlsf#ias
play Is being planned now.
ENGLISH IS COMMON TONGUE.
Chinese Girls Learn It to Talk to One
Another.
Chinese women students In the Tang
Fu College, Peking, China, are obliged
to teurn English In order to talk wltb
one another because of the different
dialects used by the student body.
(Jlrls from the extreme western
provinces of China, who attend the
school, must remain In Peking during
all of the eight years required for
their high school and college training,
because to return each summer
would require six weeks for the trip
one way and would cos: more than a
trip to America nnd return.
Girls from each of the western
provinces speak a different langunge
nnd they cannot understand one another
nny more than they can the girls
from northern, southern, eastern or
central provinces. Hence, they have
adopted English as a common tongue.

ne. I had terrible headaches and I
vss so ner\ous, I couldn't stay quiet
x minute. 1 couldn't sleep because
the pain was so bad. My kidneys acted
irregularly, too, and certainly

feel myself gtting relief. I continued
