I energetic Flemish people Just com j pieted the Job. They were a little l tired of their 1.000-year-old houses and outmoded factories. The war cost the department of Hie Nord $1,040,000,000 In damages. A total of 261,000 houses were destroyed; 1,016,000 of Its #cres were rendered unproductive — permanently, it seemed then. For comparisons—it Is enough to say that not one trace remains. There Is more of everything than there was In 1914— buildings, people, livestock, streets, sewers, money. There is a good deal more money.* Unlike the Pas-de-lalals, the Noi.l has consecrated no ground for perpetual battle monuments. Hence not one slightest trace of the war remains. From the gently sloping plains that stfeep~down to the sea to the coalfields of the south and the rambling mountains that reach the Ardennes in the east, there Is not one yard of zigzag trenchline left. The story of Cambrai is the story of the Nord. Its 49,156 dwellings weie destroyed by the fury of the war to the last one. Today there is a city there on the plai not 60,000 dwellings. That is tire miracle of the most martyred department of France. But if the Pas-de-C'alais has forgotten the war, the Flemish of the Nord have put it from their minds completely. Lille sees more Her mans ln a year than Paris, and they are welcomed. German is spoken by half the case waiters. To the Flemish there seems nothing unnatural about that—l 2 years after. A grizzled shopkeeper who saw the four years' occupation probably spoke for his 900,000 fellow-citizens when he said: "Tinsel Germans one sees today are 1 not many of them the same ones who fought against France. And what if they were? The government that made them fight has "•one, and the new governmenfover there has paid for the damage.” o — * REUNION CALENDAR ♦ ♦ Sunday, August 10 Kistler family reunion, John Arnold Grove.

PLAN TO PLACE LINCOLN'S BODY ON PUBLIC VIEW Custodian of Emancipator’s Tomb Urges Excavation for Sentiment Springfield, 111., Aug. 5. —(U.R)— Plans are under consideration here tor' the excavation of the casket containing the body of Abraham Lincoln from beneath his tomb and of placing the remains in a sarcophagus in the open, view of tlie public so that a more real sentiment may be attached to the annual pilgrimages here of many thousands of Lincoln devotees. Th- plan lias been encouraged by Herbert Wells Fay, custodian of the tomb, and numerous stu Lents of Lincoln in all parts of the world. "1 believe the time will come when public sentiment will demand that the body of Mr. Lincoln be placed in a sarcophagus for public view," Fay said. “Persons from all parts of the country who visit the tomb, have frequently voiced that opinion." Lincoln's body at present is encased in a bed of concrete ten feet beneath the tomb which towers •ver Oak P.idge Cemotery atop a high hill. ihe coffin, containing Lincoln's body, -was placed in a steel cage, which In turn was blocked off in concrete, because of a fear some years ago that an attempt might je made to steal the civil war resident's remains. An unsuccessful raid was frustrated many years go. Workmen are now employed in remodelling the tomb and the empty sarcophagus in which it lias been suggested that Lincoln's body oe placed has been recoved from its showplace to an adjoining lawn. It is proposed to spend $175,000 in the remodelling and make the tomb one of the world's beauty spots ns well as having it fitted into an appropriate Lincoln Shrine. Originally the plans did not provide for disturbing "Old Abe’s body but now it has been suggested by Fay it is possible that some action toward its excavation from beneath the tomb and the placing of it in a sarcophagus in a spot where it may be viewed by the publ.c, may be taken. CAMBRIDGE TO PUT LIMIT ON STUDENT CARS More Stringent Regulations Voted by Officials . to Reduce Accidents Cambridge, England. August E—(U.R) —New regulations passed with regard to the use of motor vehicles by Cambridge undergraduates in residence are causing considerable comment by Cantabs down on summer vacations. Six colleges — Downing, Peterhouse, Pembroke, Caius, Clare and Trinity — have taken independent action in the matter of students using automobiles and motorcycles. At the present time a first year student, commonly termed on the Cambridge Varsity as a "beginning bloke," is not allowed to use an automobile or motorcycle while in residence. When the student assumes the rank of a second year student lfe may operate a “grid," slang for automobile, with special permission by his college, head tu tor and by paying 10 shillings, $2.4U, each term. There are three terms during the Cambridge university year. Students are also required to have special lights on their "grids,” so p.octors and tutors will recognize undergraduate machines and drivers. The new regulations, which will go into operation next October, it is understood, have resulted from the large number of fatal road accidents last term in which undergraduates were involved. The following circular has been drawn up by the Clara College; “The tutor wishes to inform patents and guardians that, believing that the possession of motor-car* apd motor-bicycles by undergraduates nearly always prevents them from making the best use of their residence in Cambridge, the College has adopted the following new regulations with regard to motor vehicles: “1, The present university restriction with regard to the use of motor vehicles by freshmen shall during the next year apply to second year men also. "2. After June, 1931, these restrictions shall apply to all undergraduates of the college. "3. During the next year there shall be no late leave for motor vehicles beyond the normal hours —that is, S:3d p. m. in the Michaelmas and Lent terms and 10 p. m. in the Easter term.” Get the Habit—Trade at Home.

One of the most interesting and; important features of Safety Lane, the civic inspection of motor vehicles Which is to be staged for two days, beginning August 8, is the brake equalization test pictur- j ed above. By merely driving on this ma-j chine and applying his brakes, the car driver can see for himself the relative braking effort exerted on the lour wheels of his car. which is shown by the rise of liquid in the four gauges in the top of the pedefital. which correspond to the four wheels of the car. Proper equalization of braking effort is essential to safety under modern driving conditions, particularly in the case of four wheel brakes. Brakes are not merely required to stop a car within a prescribed distance, but they must stop the car safely. Excessive

OREGON'S LAST WILD HORSE DRIVE IS HELD Cowboys Round up Scattered Bands of Mustangs For Meat Packers By EARL H. LIEF United Press Staff Correspondent Salem, Ore., Aug. 4 —(U.R) — Oregon’s last drive of wild horses, destined to take their place in sausages or on the dinner plates of gourmets in sundry parts of the wdi id, has just taken place over the prairies and plains and high desert country of eastern Oregon. For the past several weeks the hardiest cowboys of Oregon a,id ome from Idaho and Wyoming have been riding the ranges of Harney and Malheur counties, gathering up horses that have never been eoralled and many of which have never before seen a human being. George F. Cockley, meat packer of San Jose, Cal., has been in Union and Bend preparing for loading and shipment of 25 carloads of horses to his California packing plant. About 600 head of wild horses were trailed over the plateau ln what is believed will be the last drive of these animals in this state, The wild horses proably never will be extinot in the Oregon country but their numbers will be so reduced that it would not be profitable to hold a roundup and sldp them any distance. In Oregon where the wild horses grow, horse steak is not fancied, says Cockley, but in California it is considered as good as beef and la

I braking pressure on one wheel might stop a car within a given distance on a dry road —but might easily cause the car to siwerve on , wet pavement and get out of control, resulting in a bad accident. , The machine used in this test is j one of the newest developments in ’ brake testing equipment and Is unique in enabling the car driver to instantly check his brakes under actual driving conditions, it is made by the Weaver Mfg. Cowell known manufacturers of automotive service equipment, and is made available for this campaign ! through the courtesy of local garage owners. Every cpr owner is urged to have his car tested during the safety campaign. The complete test requires only a few minutes and is free to the motoring public. The tests will take place on Liberty Way.

many parts of tile world, horse meut is eaten with considerable gusto by exacting gourmets with jaded appetites. Ponies make the finest steak and are in greatest demand, he says. Horse meat of the better grade retails at a much lower price than beef. It is sold under its own name and is used as well in sausage and other prepared meats, always identified. The horses are carefully inspected by federal agents before they are slaughtered. The culls of the range are used for fish food and are not offered for human corsumtion, according to Cockley. Humane societies object to the slaughter of wild horses for eating purposes, but ranchers and farmers in the more remote sections of Oregon are glad to rid the nearby ranges of the wild horse _whtch often become a nuisance and a pest. Marathon Golf North Tonawanda, N. Y. — (U.R) —Ray Koenig, local hardware dealer, sought to convince a friend that 120 holes of golf could be played during the time between dawn and dusk. So he set out at 5:15 a. in. and when he returned at 7:30 p. m. he had completed 126 holes. He lost six pounds as a result. Koenig hinks little of playing 64 and 72 holes a day. o Hope for Amateur Fishermen Edmonds, Wash. — (U.R)John C. King is a fisherman. He had a license, a pole, a reel and the bait. Ail this year he’s been angling, without so much as a bite. Then lie got nine salmon in one day. o A Crack Shot Fine, N. Y. —(U.R)While smoking his pipe during a walk, Hortimer Sullivan, Sr., heard the distant report of a riflp. A second later the bowl of his pipe was shattered, presumably by the bullet, leaving only the stem in his teeth.

FRIDAY MARKET ! ATMEASHEARIM NOISY,COLORFUL Jerusalem’s Mart in Street of the Hundred dates Presents Babel of Sounds By JACOB B. SIMON United Press Staff Correspondent Jerusalem, Aug. 5 (U.R) Friday market at "Mea Shearim," in th* Hundred Oates. Noise. Confusion. Pandemonium. Chickens about to be killed, set up a devilish noise. A donkey weighted down with huge slats of Ice, brays for minutes on end. Slow fooled camels with crates of melons on their sides, turn their noses up at the crowds beneath them and march slowly. And below, the crowd sways wi'h excitement. There are snatches of Hebrew; mouthing in Yiddish; harsh gutteral Arabic; and a mixture of ail three. Everybody talks at once. Tomorrow, every shop will be closed and the market will he empty. You must buy today or not a’ all. Carpets and melons. Watermelons as large as a camel’s hump. Beds and mattresses. Tiny eggs; fish and books; “Kussa" and “Bet tiiija.ii.” You can buy anything at the Friday market. And everything unbelievably cheap. But nothing can he bought without bargaining. •\ woman, wearing a wig for religious reasons and holding a black sliuwl over her head, raises ner •mice to press home her point. “I guarantee this fish is fresh! By my life, it came out of the sea this morning! Am I a liar?” Or at the next stall: “All you have to do is put a little oil in. Cheap! The stove burns no oil at all. Almost no oil at alt. it is marvelous!” A beggar sidles up. “May God bless you. Ampn. And your wife, Amen. And your children, Amen.” * Here is a great fight for trade between two grocers whose prices and goods are identical. "Don’t go to him, madame; lie has been in prison. He robs the poor. His sugar contains sand.” His rival drags the lady to his stall, retorting: “That man's father —may he rest in peace—was a thief, and the police found he sold goods underweight—” Women are not the only shoppers in the .Market of the Hundred Gates. Throughout Jerusa*jm it is common enough to see young men and old with shopping baskets. On Friday, virtually every man, unless he is a government employe or a physician, goes shopping, and most of them go to the Hundred Gates. And it is the men who like to gossip, not the women. A woman buys what she wants and goes on. A man is only half through when he lias bought his food; he must exchange the news. And the food that is offered leaves nothing wanting. Fruits at this season are plentiful. Enormous watermelons, green and emerald. Golden bananas. Yellow "inisli niish,” the general name for peaches and apricots. Rich, brown figs, heaped into small hillocks; cheeses of every kind and shape. Bottles with “labban,” that delicious sour milk that plays pranks with you after you drink it. Oil-swamped cakes and heavily spiced biscuits. Sticky qonfectionery, and Arab pitta—“Very cheap today . . . given away ... at no cost. . . . That" son of a thief! . . By my life! Not half a piaster more . . .” Confusion. Excitement. Pandemonium. The Market of the Handled Gates.
