At Bor deaux, the Leglonnulres received the "freedom of the city" from the high officials. From there they went to Tarbes to visit the birthplace of Gen eral Foch. They placed a memorial tablet upon the house that first shel tered the famous generalissimo.

Probably the most Impressive cer emony participated In by the Ameri cans was the dedication of the FHrey monument. This memorial Is a tribute to the valor of the doughboys who delivered the little town of German occupation. Fllrey Is familiar ground to many American soldiers. It Is on the ridge which was the main line of resistance of the old Toul sector. It was nt Fllrey that the Eighty- ninth, from Kansas and Missouri, went Into conlllct.

SAMUEL MATTHEWS VAUC'LAIN, head of the Baldwin Locomotive Works In l'hiludolplila, lias hud wide experience in the selection, as well as the handling of men. He admits that he has a method, a secret, In making his selections. HE FINDS OUT WHAT KIND OF A MOTIIEU A BOY HAS, und pays no uttentlou to the father. In the course of a long business life lie bus made few exceptions to this rule. . Tills theory of Mr. Vniicinln has a negative us well as a positive side. It explains not only why so many undistinguished futhers huve distin guished sons, but also why so many futhers who urc failures huve sous who ure successful. There ure two sides to the question. For one thing there Is u tendency on the part of u boy to derive his pre dominant traits from his mother. For uuother, the mother is obvious ly more Instrumental than the father in creating the environment which plays a lurge part In the development of the sous. In the average home the problem of providing u minimum of Income which Is the duty of the father is much less complicated than the prob lem of making both ends meet which is the problem of the mother. Long before statesmen ever dreamed of a budget system, that method wus fnmlliar to the women. In one gen eration after another they have had to pay their way with resources thut did not Increase In proportion as the families grew. The carefulness, prudence and fore sight that a woman displays In run ning her house naturally show them selves In the bringing up of her men- children. If she is Incompetent and shiftless In one direction, she will be the same In the other. The mother, us distinguished from the father, has played a leading part In the formative period of men of con spicuous genius who huve lifted them selves "by their bootstraps" Into places of great eminence. The mothers uf Abraham Lincoln and Nupoleon Bonaparte supply the only available explanations of the rise to leadership of two men who are types of success, under the most dif ficult circumstances. In ench case u powerful, dominant character made possible the passage from a log cubln to the White House and from Corsica to the leading place In Europe und an Imperial throne. : MOTHER'S . : COOKBOOK Let the furrows be plowed deeply rnuuKh while the brain cells are plaallc, then human energies will result In eltl ciinry ami the lln uf least reslstence will be the right line.

From the dawn of history to the present day, In sacred and secular affairs, the Influence of the mother has always been the greatest factor In the development of ability or ge nius. She has been the source of In spiration us she wus the source of being. Sometimes she bus pulled the chil dren, handicapped by the father's characteristics up to her own level. Sometimes she has pushed them above both herself nnd the father by un Indomitable determination that neither poverty nor 111 fortune of any kind should Interfere with her am bitions. Mr. Vauelalu's plnn of selection will serve Its purpose In the great majority of Instances.

I VISITED a woman who I greatly respect; the sort of woman who Is a credit to America and uu asset to her neighborhood. She bus three daughters, the oldest Just fifteen, and as we sat over our tea she begun to discuss her plans In regard to the future of her girls. I thought thut It would be well to give them training in some business cnpuclty. "Yes. But I don't want them sim ply to be Ut for an otllce Job and penury. And I rule out teaching. The life Is too hai'd-uhd, uguln, too poor ly puld. I want them to know how to do something thut will lend to free dom, not slavery. And I want them to work nt something thut will grow an Interest, not become a bore." It was quite a large order, and yet reasonable. One of the girls was dis tinctly un artist, and her mother was going to give her a course in com merciul designing. The second daugh ter -was to be trained In domestic sci ence and catering, and the oldest girl wus to tuke an agricultural course. For each girl the mother had Invested a sum of money that, while not large, would give the required start in their different professions. If there were a little more of this sort of scheming for girls, things would be a lot easier for them. Most girls are driven to office Jobs as the easiest road to follow. Which Is one reason why they are so poorly paid.

Scouting Is ten years old In Hun gary and, though the war stopped Its growth for a time, the movement was reorganized and put on a firm basis lu September, litll). In Its earlier stages the Hungarian scout associa tion was, like the German, a semi- military organization, but with Its re estuhllshment It has rejected the mil itary element and founded Itself on the British and Amerlcun nonmllltary basis. The dismemberment of Hun gary was a severe blow to the progress of the movement Inasmuch as more thun 50 per cent of the Mugyar troo; am now In occupied territories. OIH- cers, money and equipment are badly needed. Some of the boy scouts have no money even to purchase shoes, much less scout uniforms. Most of the lenders are professional men or clerks who have a hard enough strug gle to earn their own living and yet they devote time and often money to the cnuse. We are all the more proud," writes a Hungarian old scout, "that despite hardships and sufferings, our scouts unfalteringly, with a strong soul and In a real scout spirit, follow the path which leads to our great goal good citizenship and real humanity." The Hungarian boys are particularly anxious to be 'ueled In the Inter national Brothtrbo-Ml of Scout and offer and bespeak In turn good will, understanding and support In the spirit of true scouting. H IN DOUBT ASK A SCOUT. Last April a letter from the atate department of conservation and de velopment asking for data as to the number and specie of trees In the city of Long Branch, N J., Is said to have caused considerable consterna tion among the local authorities. Evi dently a tree census was wanted at once, but who could or would do the Job? Tlie authorities didn't know but, omehody else did. Hearing of the quandary of the city fathers, Scout Executive Ovenham came forward with the suggestion that the scouts of his district could and would under take the census, If desired. They did, with excellent results to all con cerned. SCOUTS AS LIFE SAVERS. Hal Crnnton, a thirteen-year-old boy scout of Newark, O., saved the life of a six-year-old child who wns swept away by the swift current while wad ing In shallow water and had gone down In a deep pool. Among the tunny heroic deeds per inned during the Pueblo flood Is the story of the two boy scouts who. on heurlng that several persons were strnnded at the gas works and hang ing from trees, hastened out to Min eral Palace park, captured a canoe, which they carried over to the swol len river, and paddled down In the fierce current rescuing five persons.

JUN10K TOPlC-Paul Crosses Over Into to Europe. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC Beginning Work on a New Continent YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC Paul Carries the Gospel to Europe. I. Forbidden by the Holy Spirit to Preach the Word (vv. 6-8). We huve here a lesson on divine guidance. The inclination of Paul and his companions was to tarry In the provinces of Asia preaching the word, but contrary to their Inclina tion they were hurried along. There were inuny people In Asia yet who ueeded the Gospel. They might have reasoned "What difference would It make as to where we preuch, Just so the Gospel Is preached?" Though seemingly small, the question as to whether the Gospel should be preached among the people In tlie East or In the West ha determined the entire history of the church. Had they preached among the people In the Kust, Christianity would never have become worldwide. On the other hand, by laying hold upon the Grecian Intellect and combining with It the push und energy (f the Roman, It became worldwide. In the guidance of the Spirit we find Illm'Just as ac tive and ns faithful In closing door as In opening them. 'The stops as well as the stops of a good man are ordered of the Lord." We ought to ai truly recognlzo God's hand In the "shut-Ins" us well as In the "open outs." II. Called to Macedonia (vv. 9-12). Being now hemmed In on nil sides, a vision was given to Paul of a man from MHcedjiiln pleading for help. This wns the solution of the mystery of closed doors about them. There Is a negative and a positive side to the Spirit's guidance. If we will note both we shall be able to determine with a turety the proper course of ac tion. In ord.r to be led aright we must bi sure that we are willing to be led, pray definitely for lending, and then re ider willing obedience as fust a the light comes. As soon as th" divine way was known they rendered Immediate oliedlence. - III. The First Convert In Europe (vv. 13.15). The missionaries went to Phlllppl and spent several days studying the conditions there. Tlie Jewish element In this city was very Insignificant; so muth so that they could not afford a synagogue; therefore the devout people were accustomed to worship at the river aide. To this bumble gathering Paul came and preached to the women gathered there. A certain woman from Thyatlra believed his message, and wag baptized. The work of the Lord had a very humble begin ning, but It was destined to transform all Europe and the world. Lydla was a woman of wealth, culture, and wide experience, and yet she had need of Christ. The steps In Lydla' conver sion are worthy of note: 1. Attendance at the place of prayer (v. 13). This Is the case with most people who are saved. The Spirit of God puts It Into the henrts of the peo ple to come to the plnce of prayer. 2. Listened to the preaching of the word of God (vv. 12-14). The Instru ment used by the Holy Spirit In the conversion of sinners Is the word of God. "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Rom. 10:17). 3. llor heart was opened by the Lord (v. 14). Regeneration Is a su pernatural work. When the Gosiiel la preached the Spirit of God makes It living and active, opening the sin ner' heart for the reception of Christ. 4. She was baptized (v. 15). It Is natural for the one who believe In Christ to desire to be baptized. 5. Her household also believed (v. lf). Thu we see that her' wa a typical conversion. IV. A Spirit of Divination Cast Out (tt. 10-18)v As the missionaries went out from day to dny to the place of prayer they were accosted by a young womun pos sessed by a aplrlt of divination. She was owned by a syndicate of men who derived large gnlns from her ooth saylng. Thla act of the woman be-, came a great annoyance to Paul who, In the name of Jesus Christ, com manded the evil spirit to come out. Here Is a case of a spiritual medium, a fortune-teller, being freed from de moniacal possession. Many men to day re making money by the degra dation of womanhood, and they resent all, effort to destroy their Infernal business, even try to destroy those who Interefere with their business. Here a everywhere Satan blocks the way a the Gospel of Christ Is car ried Into new fields, but tlie Lord Is again triumphant. Spirit of Ood In the Church. There may be some who ask, "Does the Holy Spirit fill the church today and transform the hearts and lives of men as He did In the day of the Apostles? Yes He does, when the people of the churches become more anxious for the gift of the Spirit than for outward showing, when the most earnest prayers are uttered for the giving of the Spirit of God. In our devotion to organization, and clubs, and guilds, we sometimes forget tho need of the Holy Spirit And yet we know that souls ap4 not saved by clubs and societies, and concerts, and by moving pictures at the evening services, but by the presence of the Spirit of God In the church, In both nastor and peciyfa, ' j ' . . r t i I la "
