Rex was always getting into trouble with his playmates, but almost invariably got the worst of it in a struggle for mastery. After a recent defeat he announced that he would stay in his own yard hereafter and play with his dog. “Rover doesn’t fight,” he added by way of explanation. “Oh, I see,” his mother remarked. “You don’t like to fight as well as you used to.” “Well, I wouldn’t mind fighting,” replied Rex, “If I didn’t get licked every time.”

In olden times it was customary for an officer to go around the towns and villages to see that the Inhabitants had no weapons of war. One one of these tours an officer called at the house of a worthy Scotch couple and put the question to the bld man: “Any weapons of war in this house?” After scratching his head Sandy looked at his better half and said: “’Deed, aye; pit oot your tongue, guidwlfe 1”

GIVES UP HIS LIFE TO GUARD SECRETS
Flyer Wrecks Disabled Machine as German Flotilla Approaches Airplane. ORDERS OBSERVERTO ESCAPE Pilot Deliberately Blows Himself and His Craft to Pieces With Bomb to Evade Capture by Huns. - London. —British aviators and mechanics sometimes are compelled to destroy their own machines to prevent the Germans from obtaining a jealously guarded secret about the new type of airplane. Occasionally it is necessary for the aviator to sacrifice his own life together with his airplane. . Such an instance is described in an official report of a brave aviator, who deliberately blew himself and the airplane to pieces with a bomb to evade capture by a German flotilla of destroyers. There were two men, the pilot and his observer, in one of the latest flying boats the British makers have turned out. They had got well out to sea when a fog suddenly cut them off from the rest of their companions. The pilot headed for home, but a few seconds later the engine “died" and the pilot brought the boat to rest on the water. He climbed up to the engine to see if he could make good the de feet. A glance showed him that only a repair shop and a squad of expert mechanics could hope to make the engine run. His face was slightly more grave when he climbed down to the hull. “Are you going to make the works go around again, daddy?” asked the observer. Machine Can't Be Fixed. '‘Can’t be done,’ my son,” said the pilot. “We shall have to wait on someone coming to pick us up.” “I suppose the fog will lift soon and give our chaps a sight of us. Wake me up before they come,” and snuggling still further down into his seat, the observer went to sleep. The night drew on. The pilot sat up on the deck combing, and listened Intently for the slightest sign of approaching rescuers, while behind him down in the cockpit slept the boy, dreaming of home. With the coming of the morning the fog lifted and the observer glanced eagerly over the shadowy waters. Far on the horizon was a little black smudge growing steadily in size, and

behind it another smudge, and another. It was a patrol flotilla fast approaching them. “It Is German, my son,” said the pilot. “Is your life belt on securely?” “Yes.” "Well, get over the side and swim as hard as you can.” “But don’t you want me’to help—" His Privilege to Die. “Get over the side,” said the pilot curtly, and there was that in his voice which made the junior man instantly obey. “Good-by, sonny,” he added, as the observer slipped into the water. “It is my privilege, you know.” About 200 yards away the observer paused and looked back at the disabled plane. The pilot was crouching on the top of the wing underplane, just above the bomb rack, with a heavy spanner in his upraised hand heady to strike a blow. A mile away the first German destroyer was tearing the sea in twain in nervous haste to save the coveted trophy and get away before the appearance of the dreaded British patrol. The observer turned and swam away from the tra.gedy which he knew was about to happen. There came the roar of a mighty explosion. He heard the swish of the air blast along the surface waters and the rush of the approaching wave from the sea disturbance. The wave engulfed him just as he began to hear the splash and patter of the falling debris, and in the blackness of its heart his senses swam into unconsciousness. He was still sobbing delirious when the British patrol boat picked him up an hour later.
PARIS PUTS A BAN ON WAR RUMORS
Police Mercilessly Hunt for Gossip Mongers Who Tell Wild Stories of Conflict. SOCIALIST EDITOR SEIZED Defeated Schoolteacher Now Faces Court-martial for Her Writings— Wealth or Influence Cannot Shield the Guilty. Paris. —It was a famous French psychologist who said recently that rumor was one of the evils, among others, of all wars, and especially of this one. He pointed out that rumors were as bad and sometimes did as much harm as the worst of enemy'propagandlsts. The truth of his Ideas has apparently impressed the prefect of police, who has begun a merciless hunting down of all gossip mongers and rumor dispensers. The prefect has decided to take drastic measures to stop unthinking chatter In public places and the spreading of alarming reports and defeatist opinions. A warning Issued the other day points out that henceforth any person, no matter how respectable he may be, will be arrested and taken to the nearest police station if he forgets himself to the extent'of talking not wisely but too well. The warning had hardly been posted when the round-up began to show results. Boulevardlers of all sorts were brought before the local commissaires to explain their individual acts of indiscretion. There were some whose sole offense, according to their explanations, w-as that they had merely said they knew a friend whose concierge had been told by the post carrier that on the day after tomorrow the Gothas would surely carry out a terrible raid on Paris. Wild Theory About Big Guns. Others were certain, and let it be known quite loudly on the terraces of the cases, that the cannon which recently bombarded Paris was really not at all as far away as-the authorities announced It to be. They were sure that somewhere not far from Paris, hidden In a forest, were a number of ordinary small-caliber cannon which had been conserved in dugouts since the battle of the Marne and were suddenly put into action by a battery of
Old Glory Again Flies Above the Schoolhouse
Randolph, Mass. —The American flag is flying today over the Prescott school. It took a court order to get the flag back in place. Some weeks ago the halyards broke. The selectmen, who are also the school committee, took no steps to have them repaired. William E. Spear, a red-blooded patriot, demanded the flag be flown. He was met with a smile, but no action. He got the selectmen haled into court. The court ordered the flag flown at once in accordance with a state law ordering all schools to fly an American flag.
SPLIT BUILDING TO MOVE IT
Structure 300 Feet Long Is Cut in Two and Halves Moved Separately. Camp Meade, Md. —A building 300 feet long was chopped in two and the two halves were moved about 500 yards by a detachment of colored here without the use of any special devices and with no delay worth mentioning. A group of 300 men caught hold of the supports and at the proper order they had the whole structure off the ground. Then at signals the slow pull began. Within seven hours the building was in place on its new site.

German prisoners who had escaped from the camps in France. These and other gossipy bits of misinformation dropped indiscreetly by some well-meaning persons have been found to prove a source of extreme annoyance to the government authorities and have resulted in immense harm. Perhaps the most sensational arrest under this new edict, although virtually made as the result of a law passed on August 5, 1914, was that of CharlesLeon Rappoport, one of the editors of La Verlte and Le Journal du Peuple and a member of the administrative committee of the unified socialist party. Rappoport was taking refuge in a cellar during an air raid. With him were a number of women and men, dwellers in the same house. According to a schoolteacher who heard him, Rappoport was directing many derogatory remarks against the government and the army. The teacher reported what he had heard to the prefect of police, who ordered the arrest of the socialist. Woman Teacher Faces Trial. After numerous interrogations by the military and police authorities, Rappoport was locked up In the-Sante prison, where 8010 was detained and Caillaux and Senator Humbert are imprisoned, as well as the latest arrival, Mlle. Helen Brion, the defeatist schoolteacher who faces court-martial for her writings. Rappoport’s arrest created much comment in all the newspapers, particularly in the radical and socialist press. The press of this week, to say nothing of the wholesale detentions, convictions and arrests of the last few months, is bringing home to the peoplemore clearly the determination of the government to rid the country of its opponents and enemies. One thing has certainly become very clear and that is that the prominence of a man or his wealth and political Influence in no way cause him to be Invulnerable against charges of interfering with the successful prosecution of the war. Premier Clemenceau’s decision is that no one shall be spared who schemes to undo the work done by the soldiers of France In the field.
