MY VACATION IN EUROPE
This summer, I had the pleasure
of taking a trip which included the
principal cities of ‘the United States
and eleven countries of Europe. The
countless thousands of interesting
things which we saw and thenumerous incidents which we encountered
would fill a good-sized book, if
such were written.
Historial beautiful, quaint, extravagant, inviting impressing and fascinating might be included. in the list
of adjectives which could describe
the various cities and countries. It
was not avery difficult thing to
travel throughout these countries,
because many persons are found
everywhere who know something .
about our language. Many times
people would talk to us for a great
in such conversation we
learned many things which would
have otherwise never been added to
our knowledge.
We found the people
courteous, friendly, and quite
thoughtful most of the time. We
come into contact with train, on
bus, and tramway conductors who
were extremely courteous and were
willing to stand the strain of explaining: directions by the sign language. The American is impressed
by such reception and wishes that
our type of organization were not
‘so fast and forgetful of good manwe call
ners, especially on public conveyances in the large cities. .
I kept a complete record of our
trips and the things which we saw.
Soon, I will give several talks before
the Student Body about them. Trayeling is @ very good type of education in itself, and I hope that the
imparting of my experience will be
interesting to the extreme.

Q.
v
Death Ended Argument
An awesome debate between two
Basuto witch doctors recently ended
sensationally at Teyateyaneng, North
Basutoland. The witch doctors were
arguing about their powers before a
great crowd of natives, and the elder
of the two stated with considerable
emphasis that the other was “only a
boy” and could not possibly have the
powers which he -himself claimed to
have. He added that if he (the elder)
willed that the other should die, he
would die. The younger man took up
the’Challenge and the older one pointed at him with a stick and said solemnly, “You will die,” The young man
then rose to his feet,, staggered and
fell against. some barbed wire and
immediately expired. The other witch
doctor was placed under arrest, but
was released after the post mortem
examination which showed death to
be due to a stricture.
Ivy Unpopular
Ivy has so tong been used as a symbol of close and undying affection that
it is uncomfortable to find a controversy going on as to how to kill and
exterminate this “pestiferous plant.”
It is a beautiful thing, ivy; its leaves
are exquisitely shaped; its color is
satisfying. Yet we are told now to
look upon it as an enemy both to
buildings and trees, All the same, I
know walls covered thick with ivy
where I used to locate birds’ nests,
which I shall always regard with atfection, And I have known trees
sinothered by ivy which were far less
pleasant to look on than the creeper
which deprived them of life.——Montreal Family Herald.
