VOL. LI WORDS OF WISDOM IN MOTHER'S WILL Short Document Worthy of Place in Literature. Worth more than all her personal belongings was the compact of love, piety, faith and common sense which a New Tork woman left her family. Like all the great things of life, the' message is simple, and valuable enough as an Item of Interest to the public at ■ large to find space In the newspapers. The letter was written by Mrs. Lydla Harding Hammond, widow of the Rev. John Dennis Hammond, a Methodist minister, to be read by the children after her death. It runs as follows: ,"Dear Children —I've Just made my will, and this Is to tell you what I want done with my personal belongings. Don't keep anything Just because it was mine; they are Just things, and worn and shabby at that; love doesn't need such things for remembrance. "Most of my books are old and many of them I haven't looked Into for years. I have loved and kept them because they have enlarged my life. Henry is to have them and my Bible, typewriter and Verdun vase. "I'won't be separated from any of you, dear children. I'll Just be closer to God and will understand better the ways In which prayers and faith can open way# through which Gbd can help you and ! 111 be able at ldast to love you with all my heart and without any thing In that love that will make you feel as if I wanted to control you or bother you. "Bury my body .as cheaply as you can and forget It. Don't wear mourn ing, unless, of course, 'Lynx' wants to. And think of me as alive, alive beyond your farthest thought, and near, and loving you, and well at last, far as the winds of heaven and learning more and more the things I want to know and growing more toward what God wants me to become. "I think, maybe, John will have our home ready when I come and we'll have a real home at last ' "Love one another. Hold fast to that whether you understand one another or not, and remember nothing really matters "except being kind to one an other and to all the world as far as you can reach. "Tour Lovlngest Mother." Such faith as this Methodist minis ter's wife displays, says the Boston Globe, "is the best evidence of those things this woman believed. She Uvpd them and her faith revealed through her will shines like a star 1 . -Here In very truth Is the victory that overcom eth the world, the life eternal, lived now in the midst of time." Says the New York Sun:" "We prefer to accept this letter as more nearly revealing the spirit which today generally animates and Inspires American family life than-to Join those who see In occasional records of do mestic discord, parental Inattention and filial neglect true Indexes of the national character. The beauty of faith, and of hope, and of unselfish de votion Its simple phrases record are found In countless households from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Lakes to the Gulf. The power to set forth the sentiments of loyalty and virtues as Mrs. Hammond set them forth is possessed by few, and this gives to her letter a unique and universal valae."— Literary Digest Drastic Action "Tuther day Bud Rubb came to the post office which I was running up to last week, and axed If there was any mall for him," related the ex-ofil clal at Sandy Mush.

Military Etiquette In the Jugoslav army there is to be erf)served an interesting difference in military, manners. • The army is composed of Serbs, Croats and Slo venes.

He merely followed his life rule of accepting uncomplainingly what ever time might bring him. Japs Learn English as Matter of Course English Is. taught in the public schools all over Japan. Letter, when I came to travel widely in the interior, I often found bright schoolboys four teen or fifteen years old who would volunteer as Interpreters, Theodore Geoffrey writes In the Saturday Eve ning Post. In another generation English may be a second language for the Japanese, even as the Dutch today are competent linguists, because the world cannot be bothered to learn. Dutch. '* English, unless a Japanese has been educated abroad, becomes rather, culiar In Japanese mouths, for ac cording to Japanese custom, every con sonant must be followed by a vowel, and there Is no "1" or "v" or "th." Thus "beer" becomes "bleru" ; "glass," "gurssu," and "hotel," "hoteru."

HOW= PARENT HAVENS PROTECT NESTLINGS FRO»M HARM.— "I was once concealed in my 'hide,' watching and photo graphing a pair of ravens at their nest on a wild and desolate crag'on the Welsh mountains," writes Oliver G. Pike. English ornithologist In the London Spectator. "Among other things I discovered that they have a language of their own. Several times during the eight hours I spent In my shelter the parents brought food to their young. "Long before the former, go} to within sight of the nest the young heard the loud call which told them food was coming. When they heard this they be came very excited, ran about the nest and gave out. answer ing cries. Twice during the day a man passed over the mountains and ths parent raven on guard high over the nest, seeing him And looking upon the intruder as an enemy, uttered quite a different call "Instantly the three young birds threw themselves flat In the nest and remained quite motionless until they heard a third cry, which again was dif ferent from the others, which told thepi the coast was clear. Then they quickly Jumped up and were Immediately at ease." How France Encourage* Id ecu of Matrimony In order to encourage matrimony In France, the Friendly Society of Parisian Youth has organised a "mar riage fair" at Chatou. Three huAdred and twenty-eight young men and women' left Paris with a band ptgthelr bead, went to Chatou, and started the fiances' fair by an alfresco lunch, followed by a ball. Each of them had previously filled up a form, giving details as to their situation and prospects, and making known their ideas regarding their life partner-to-be.

How Ships Will Be Salvtd Italian government engineers have approach a plan for raising from Lake Nemi near Rome the pleasure galleys of Emperor Tiberius who died In 87 A. D.

The question hss attracted the atten tion of archeologists for centuries.

About thirty years ago Professor Maes, who spent yesrs on his project, devised mschlnery which raised vslosble pieces of bronse and marble. But It was found Impos sible to raise the galleys because of their great weight By the new plan the lake will be drained by cutting a tunnel through the side of the extinct volcano crater In which the lake la sltusted.

This suggestion was pat forth by M. A. Tbouxier, s French pigeon fancier, who declares that car rier pigeons make poor flights during the occurrence of magnetic storms. He also asserts that the general us* of wlraleea telegraphy has diminished the reliability of these birds to a surpris ing extent Hew Sailors Keep Tim* On shipboard "bells" mark the half hour.
