Modern warfare pays small heed to the darkness of night, many attacks being launched during the darkness. As an aid to these attacks and as a defense against them, huge searchlights have been put into use. This picture shows one of the latest type of French searchlights mounted upon an automobile. Such searchlights are being used in the defense of the positions

around Verdun, where the Germans have been attacking with vigor.

Copyright, 1916, by the McClure MOLLIE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY Molly was cross when she got up one morning and nothing suited her, and when later she tried to open the door to the dining room and found it locked she began to pound on the door and cry. "You can not come in now," said her mother, opening the door a very little and standing in front of it so Molly could not see what was going on in the dining room.

Grandmother came out of her room at the head of the stairs and called to her, and Molly very eulkily went upstairs. "What are you making all this fuss

over?" asked her grandmother. "You

i will be sorry by and by that you have ,been so naughty." "No, I won't said Molly. "Mother has no right to lock the dining room. 1 want to go in and see what she is 'doing." "You should mind your mother when ghe tells you to go away, and you will

be sorry by and by you were so naughty. Now, be a good girl and sit by me and look at your book." But Molly would not do that. She went down stairs again and tried the floor of the dining room. It was still locked, and she listened, but all she rould hear was the rattle of dishes. She went down into the yard and sat flown to think how horrid everybody as to her. At lunch time she had her lunch

Newspaper Syndicate, New York. with grandmother in her room. "Why can't I at lunch in the dining room?" asked Molly. "I can't tell you now," said her mother. "I wish you would be a good girl. You will be sorry if you are not." After lunch her m6ther dressed her in her prettiest white dress, with pink ribbons on her hair, and Molly began to smile for the first time that day, because she thought she was going somewhere, but when her mother told her not to put on her hat she began to cry again. The ringing of the doorbell stopped her. and Molly, heard the voices of her playmates in the hall. When she looked over the railing she saw all the little girls and boys in the neighborhood standing there

looking up and laughing at her. - "Hello, Molly!" called one of the boys. "I guess we surprised you didn't we? How old are you today?" Then for the first time Molly remembered it was her birthday. They played games on the lawn and In the hall, and then the door of the dining room was opened and Molly knew why it had been closed all the morning. It was because her mother wanted to give her a surprise. Molly felt very- sorry and very much ashamed and she looked at her grandmother, who stood - in the door, but she only smiled at her.

In the center of the table was a big bouquet of pink roses, and at every plate was a pink ribbon with a card bearing the name of the little girl or

boy who was to sit there. "Pull the

ribbon." said Molly's mother, and they all did, and from under the pink roses came little packages which contained a handkerchief for the little girls and silver pencil for each boy. There were pink ices shaped like a rose and pink cakes, and all the sandwiches were tied with pink ribbon, and the candies were all pink and white, too. Such a pretty table it was! Every thing just matched the ribborts that tied Molly's hat. After all had eaten all they wanted the table was cleared and a maid brought in a cake. And such a big cake it was, with lighted

candles around it just six of them the number of years Molly was old on that day, and the date written in pink on the frosting. When the cake was cut and Molly cut it standing

hon a chair there were pink boxes for

the cake to be put in so the little guests could take it home, and each box was tied with a pink ribbon. They played games for a while after that, and when the guests went home they were all pretty tired as well as Molly. That night, when Molly kissed her grandmother good night she said: "I was sorry by and by, just as you said. Mother was fixing the dining room to surprise me, wasn't she? And I was cross. I am awfully sorry." "Tell your mother that, dear. It will help to rest her; She worked so hard to please you, and you were so fretful it made her very unhappy this morning." Molly did tell her mother she was sorry, and she promised to be a better girl in the future, and not act as she did that morning, when she could not know everything that was going on in the house. '
