Two lines of folks of all ages, and a bag of clothespins for each line, a starter to see them off and the pins were passed down the iine one at & time.

Apples are placed on the floor or grass, one for each boy, and they must be rollea w certain distance and returnesd the boys using only their noses.

Groups of six were chosen, and as many groups could take part as there was room for the race track. Each group chose a car to represent. Then a relay race began,. One of the group, representing a car, would race across the yard, turn a chair around, sit upon it, arise and turn the chair back again before returning home for the second racer to start. Five groups were represented, and you may rest assured that excitement rose to a high pitch at times. For a small group of about a dozen or fifteen, Passing the Doilsr is enâ€" foyed by young folks.

I remembered Blenkiron‘s news about the Russians advancing on a broad front, for it was clear that Stumm was . taking pains about the flank of the fortress. | Kara Gubek was the point of interâ€" est. It stood on a rib of land between two peaks, which from the contour lines rose very steep. So long as it was held it was clear that no invader could move down the Euphrates glen. Stumm had appended a note to the peaksâ€""not fortified" ; and about two miles to the northâ€"east there was A red cross and the name "Prievalsky." 1 assumed that to be the farthest point yet reached by the right wing of the Russian attack. _ C a Then I turned to the paper from‘ which Stumm had copied the jottings . on to his map. It was typewritten, and consisted of notes on different points. One was headed "Kara Gubek" and read: "No time to fortify adja-l cent peaks. Difficult for enemy to get| batteries there, but not impossible.| This is the real point of danger, for i/'l Prjevalsky wins the {)eaks Kara Gubek and Tafta must fall, and enemy ; will be on left rear of Deve Boyun| main position." ‘ I was soldier enough to see the treâ€"| mendous importance of this note. On Kara Gubek depended the defence of Erzerum, and it was a broken reed if one knew where the weakness lay.1 Yet, searching the map again, I could |not believe that any mortal commandâ€" |er would see any chance in the adâ€" jacent peaks, even if he thought them \ unfortified. _ That was information \confined to the Turkish and German \staff.
