The case for the Assyrians is not an easy one to adjudicate upon, Their sufferings during the war have undoubtedly been, as shameful as their courage and determination have been remarkable. In spite of the fact that, in the -early days of the war, the Russians failed to come to their aid, as they had promised to, the Assyrians never submitted to the demands of the Turk that they should take up arms with them against the Ailiesy Neither did they cease to resist with dogged determ- inatian the attacks which were made upon them in consequence. When the Russians failed to send them the guns, ammunition, and reinforce- ments they had promised, the Assy- rians retreated into the mountains, and, when It was found impossible to winter there, aid help was -still lacking, more than 70,000 of them, men, women, and children, under- took the perilous retreat to the Rus- sian lines in Persia. There they re- mained in comparative safety until the outbreak of the Russian revolu- tion, and the'collapse of the Russian army on allfronts abandoned them, once again, to their own resources. They refused to retreat with the Rus- sians, established themselves as best they could, and, in spite of repeated onslaughts from Turk and Hurd, managed to hold their positions. Some time after the British forces entered Baghdad communication was opened with them, and ultimately they- were transported to the banks of the Tigris, where they 'have re- mained ever since, under British protection. The 50,000 or so, who managed to complete the journey to Baghdad re- present only a comparatively small part ` of the Assyrian people, who claiming direct descent from the an- cient Assyrians, "have, for centuries, inhabited that ill-defined territory along the borders of Persia, Turkey and Russia. In the course of a re- cent interview with a representative of the press, in London, Archbishop Severius declared that some 200,000 members of the Assyrian race had been massacred by the Turks and the Kurds, during the war, and that al- though large numbers of Assyrians were now living in safety under Brit- ish and French protection, many others were_still at the mercy of the Turk. Their position, in fact, is very much the same as that of the Ar- menians, and, indeed, in point of actual -hardship and suffering, the Assyrian story is much the same as the Armenian. The Assyrian claim, however, for the "emancipation ofthe vilayets of Diarbekir, Bitlis, Kharput, and Our - fa, wherein they could live a national life of their own," could scarcely be entertained, if by this is meant the formation out of these territories of a separate Assyrian state. The vilayets of Diarbekir, Bitlis, and Kharput are three of the six historic vilayets of Turkish Armenia, and must unquestionably be embodied in the new Armenian state. The case for the Assyrians, nevertheless, needs to be heard., not only for its own sake, but because it reinforces so tremendously the case for the aboli- tion of Turkish rule from these re- gions, and the establish;nient, once for all, of some form of righteous government. -Christian Science Mon- itor. The Cats of Warsaw. A picturesque story of the war comes from Warsaw, where all the cats had disappeared. One went about the city and saw never a cat. So completely had the cats vanished that when the Red Cross warehouse, just outside of Warsaw, became over- ran, with rats and nice, to the ser- ious damage of food and clothing stored in it, almost every other ex- pedient was thought of and tried be- fore it occurred to anybody that per- haps there might be a cat or two" still left somewhere in the community. Then some official of the warehouse mentioned to a Polish workman that if a cat could be found, the animal would be a great help in protecting the Red Cross property: and from here, there, and everywhere came the wives of - the citizens, and the citi- zens themselves, each carefully bear- ing a treachired cat. As the story goes, there seemed to be as many cats offered for duty in the Red Cross warehouse as there were rats and mice at work in it. The emergency had overcome the unwillingness of the people to admitatfiat they were guarding their pets, and after a guardian had been chosen' for the warehouse, the cats again disappear- ed from Warsaw.

NEWEST NOTES OF SCIENCE A Welsh inventor has patented a process for removing solder, tin and chemicals from scrap and galvanized iron and utilizing the base metals. A patent has been issued for a drill equipped with clamps to hold it in position when it is -used to bore holes in pipes, shafts and other objects. An electrically operated machine has been invented to shake barrels being filled with cement to prevent air spaces being formed at the bottom or sides. For waterproofing clothing and shoes a French scientist has discover- ed that a solution of about an ounce of paraffin to the quart of gasoline is effective. Pulling a ball attached to a cord opens or closes a new waterproof bag for bathing suits, which is so formed that it can be used as a pillow when filled. • Hoping some day to produce a per- fect human race, an Englishman has as a nucleus six children of as many nationalities and will add five more to ' his colony. - A Los Angeles inventor has devised a scoreboard for various games which is claimed" to automatically prevent the wrong player getting credit for points made.

Tertn "Insect" Is 1ncorrectlg Applied to -Thew• • Spiders are commonly spoken of as insects, but they aren't. They be- long to a very different order of ani- mals, being "arachnids." - They get this name, by the way, from a mythological maiden named Arachne, who was so proud ,of her weaving -that she challenged Minerva to a trial of skill. The goddess ac- cepted the challenge, but, finding her- self In danger of defeat, lost her temper, struck her presumptuous rival and turned her into a spider. The spider is incomparably more intelligent than any insect, and its cleverness as a maker of nets obtains for it a well -warranted admiration. It Is the female that does this work, the male being only a fraction of her size and of no account except for continuing the species. A spider has what may be called a recognizable brain. But so, for the • matter of that; has a caterpillar, though less well developed. The nervous system of the latter is a mere string with knots of nerve stuff (ganglia) .at intervals along it, The brain of a caterpillar may be said to extend through its 'length. But one might -say the same thing of a human being, whose entire nerv- ous system is properly to be regarded as an extension of the brain. Or, looking at It the opposite way, your brain is merely the principal gan- glion of your nervous system. - Moir Boat from -War's Crucible. The pantheists at least cannot find in the motor boat an insidious enemy of their own peculiar tenets, but it is an awkward fact that the motor boat is going to be the better for the war. This is shown conclusively • by the Motor Boat.Show in New York. One significant fact is that virtually "every exhibitor at the show had tales to tell of inquiries made by men who first carie to know of the enjoys ment and sport offered by power craft during their service .afloat in the ser- vice of Uncle Sam." The British can tell the same tale of their mosquito fleet that did such yeoman service "wherever it was a little claret." A* most encouraging statement, tat the influence of war experience makes for increased seaworthiness of design, .is to be noticed. It has been a fea- ture of motor boats designed for pleasure and business in the past that seaworthiness has been sacrificed either to comfort or speed or both, and the fact that the rnotor_boat sel- dom has sail power has sometimes been unpleasantly emphasized. Too Many have known what it was to have the motor stopped and presently to ship a sea or two. There lay the craft, her cockpit awash, while she bumped and staggered helplessly. To meet such contingencies, there is more tendency to -inclose the bridge deck and thus to have the controls under cover, a most practical change, the wisdom of which is to be praised. Nothing is said of any device where- by the . chug -chug of the fisherman's, power boat is to be tamed and molli- fied. This hardy adventurer does not mind the noise, but others do who have. seen a whole stretch of honest coast made well-nigh intolerable ntolerable by this nuisance. Perhaps it is* a small matter of enforcing the law. • Quadricentennial of Magellan. March, 1921, will be a good time to visit the Philippines, for it will then be an even 400 years since Fer- nao de Magalhaes, as he was named in his native Portuguese, although better known, as English usage afterward changed it, by the name of Ferdinand Magellan, first Visited the islands, discovering and taking possession of them for the crown of Spain. An.d plans are now under con- sideratiot1 to- celebrate that annivers- ary in a way to outdo any celebration ever held in the Orient. One will hear, no doubt, a great deal about Magellan in the next twelve estenths, and the first navigator -of the Pacific will reappear in newspaper columns and magazine articles; nor is it un- likely that his counterfeit present- ment will rediscover the Philippines in a proper pageant. The celebration, indeed, comes at an appropriate time, for the Pacific Ocean' is only just as- suming reality in the thoughts of the great majority of Americans, and it provides historic background against which the modern islands can dis- play their products, their develop- ment, and their opportunities for the investment of American capital. Like Columbus, Magellan was not seeking new lands for Spain. He set out to find a passage Brom the Atlantic to the ocean that Balboa had seen some years. earlier on the other side of the continent, and having 'passed through the Strait of Magellan, he believed that he was steering for the Moluccas, or Spice Islands. And so, incidentally," he found the Phillip - pines. The Oldest Drawings. The oldest drawings in the world are believed to have been made about 25,000 years ago by prehistoric man in the caves of the Pyrenees moun- tains, says Boys Life. Some, of these pictures show remarkable' skill in drawing, suggesting that civilization was comparatively well advanced at this period. From the relics of this period it is believed that these men had a religion of some kind, that they buried their dead, were governed by chiefs and made instruments off int. Examples of their painting and sculp- ture have been found. As man goes about the earth analyzing and dis- 3ecting every object a great amount of seientiftainformation is being gathered which will some day en- able him to solve this great mystery 3f his early history.
