CARRY ON VAST PROPAGANDA islam " Fraternities" Factors'"ff Great Importance Throughout the Whole i Mohammedan World. pA spiritual; factor of great Import-ance in the Mohammedan world Is the fraternities. Islam . always had its fraternities, but the two which did the most for Its religious and political revival came Into existence about- - the " middle 'of the' Nineteenth century ; the Serinussiya and the DJemal-ed-Di-writes Rev. Amos L Dushaw In the Christian Herald. The founder of the Sennusslya was Seyld Mohammed SennussI, a descend-ant of the prophet and a man of learn-ing, piety and position. It was strict-ly puritanic in character and now, eighty years old, is exerting a great spiritual Influence on Islam. This fra-ternity has lodges scattered through-out the whole of Islam, but El Sen-nussI, the present leader, has a firm hold on the whole movement and he has kept It from political alliances, Islamic and Christian. He is aiming at a spiritual revival of his people be-cause he feels that Islam cannot re-gain Its complete political Indepen-dence without Its old spiritual life. In a word, the SennussI fraternity Is do-ing preparatpry work. It Is also carrying on a tremendous missionary propaganda and converting millions of pagan negroes to Its faith. DJemal-ed-Dl- unlike SennussI, was less of a theologian and more of a political propagandist, feared and per-secuted by the English. He saw Is-lam's danger and worked hard to stir It up to action. Stoddart says, "It Is not too much to say that he Is the father of every shade of Egyptian nationalism." His Influence did not end with Egypt. DJemal-ed-Dl- n was no wild fanatic. He knew the forces that faced the Islam world and, like SennussI, only dealing with political matters,, he offered advice of real value to his people. "It Is plain that the whole Moslem world must unite In a great defensive alliance to pre-serve Itself from destruction; and to do this It must acquire the ieebpic of western progress and learn the secret of European power." ' DidltEve Occur to You That its difficult for a man to remember where the first dollar he ever earned went but he is absolutely sure where the first dollar he earned after buying a used automobile disappeared.

There is not much in that statement but publicity chatter, aa it has been given out that Mary never had a mule. That honeymoons are happy because house cleaning doesn't come until later in the season. That a daily newspaper says, "A boy was born in a Ford in Atlanta City yesterday.

Palmer, In charge of the gov-ernment's reindeer experiment station at Nome, Alaska, has Just sent In a report to the United States Depart- - ment of Agriculture that conditions among Alaskan reindeer herds are the best this year in the history of 'the In-dustry. The fawn crop has been tin-- , usually large, and favorable conditions have greatly reduced the ordinary losses. Herd owners who haye adopt-ed recommendations of the biological survey for Improved handling of the herds report marked gain in size and condition of animals, and a reduction In the losses from, those experienced under former methods. Reindeer in-troduced two years ago on Nunlvak Island are doing remarkably well, with the young much larger in size than animals of the same age on the main-land. Thanksgiving Did you on Thursday, Thanks--, giving day, stop awhile and think over the blessings you en-joy ? That being a citizen of the United States of America is worth more than citizenship i any other country of the world? Did you ponder over the fact that Christians and human be-ings are starving by thousands in other countries of this world of ours? We have gotten to bo a selfish race. We have become indifferent about our many bless-ings. We have come to think we are entitled to all the good things of the world without having to say "Thanks" to any body. We would be far better off , if after our Thanksgiving festivities we commence to think of ways and means that would best express our thanks for the many privi- - leges we enjoy in this land. The majority of ua are compelled to confess that we make thanks-giving Day just a mere holiday. aw wihisiiiimm line , immmmmmmmmtmnmmm wwwwwwiiwiiiwimihimwiwi iwiww mmmmmmmmm SSSSHKMNMSMKMMMMIMMaSMM Major Astor to Sell Out in New York? ?""""!"" mtimwWII I IWIMIWMWIIMMIUIWWmiWIII l- MIMWMWIIIMIWIMIW MIMMHIMIIIIIMIIMWIWWIIWIMWMWIW 'l"'wl''eMMMiiawiw mm MaJ.

For Instance, when he was about thirty he had a narrow es-sap-e from arrest by fleeing to Switzer-land. Ills entrance Into that' country was dramatic lie was pursued over the frontier at Chlasso by Italian gen, darmes who had a warrant for his ar-rest but won his race for freedom by a scant hundred yards and the Swiss customs officers refused to surrender him. Penniless, he crossed the St Gothard pass on foot and upon his arrival In Lucerne was arrested as a vagabond without visible means of support. Later he entered the University of Lausanne, but as he was a revolution-ary Socialist and wrote mnny"flry ar-ticles for the Swiss and Italian Social-ist press he as finally expelled from bwnzenana a'ter several police warnings which he refused to heed. Then he went to Trent, In the old Austrian Tyrol, whence he was also expelled la 111. Upon the declaration of a general amnesty he left Trent for Milan where he founded the newspaper Popolo d Italia, which Is now the organ of t'te Fasclsti, of whom he organized the first unit shortly after the clone of tie war. He aroused the hatred of the Socialists in the conduct of his paper, how-ever, ty 'us campaign In favor of Italy's entrance Into the World wur on the side of tie entente, and later fought with the Italian forces at Monte Nero and Carr where he wirs severely wounded. GEORGES CLEMENCEAU COMES TO AMERICA Georges Clemenceau, aged French statesman and premier, is in this country. Before leav-ing France he announced he was coming over here to "create a state of mind." The state of mind he wants to create is one, of course, that will be favorable to France. Before coming here he made peace with his old po-litical enemy, Premier Poncaire. Though his mission is personal, it has official approval.' Clemenceau "The Tiger" is one of the world's great men, and from what we can read intens-l- y interesting. He is old. Per-haps the reader of this will re-call that during the war the old premier went to his physician and asked if he could promise him six months - of life. , The American soldiers were fighting in France then and there was a new hope among thei French people of winning. Six months, the premier figured, hostilities would cease. He was correct. Following the war Clemenceau went into the jungle and hunted tigers. For three years he has , been in obscurity. Now he comes here to help his country. "Nobody" he says, upon arrival, "can ascribe any personal aims to my act in visiting this country. My life is over. But it does seem to me that I can do some service in letting you know how we Eu-ropeans judge the .American people." Clemenceau is going to try to dispel the belief that France is now the great militar-istic power of Europe. He will maintain that close between the United States, France and Great Britain is the stepping stone to world peace, the cure of the disease that is af-flicting the world to day. He will support the American-Franco-Briti- sh alliance. In the early days following the suspension of hostilities he favored such an al-liance. He proposed it during the conference and apparantly thonght more of it than of the League of Nations. But it was not acceptable to the U. S. Senate at that time and it is not prob-able it would be acceptable to the American people, now. When the people of the world quit hatinj? each other there will be no call for a league or alliance of any kind. A. ft!. Owsley, Head of American Legion Alnn M. Owsley of Denton, Tex.
