Returning soldiers tell a good story of a mule driver in France. He was driving a four-mule team hitched to a ration wagon and. as he told the story, he lost his way in the night and mist and drove right through the American trench line, which was not continuous at that point, and started rumbling along an old road which led across No Man’s Land. He had gone a few rods when a doughboy jumped out of a lis tening post and. began to signal to him with both hands. “What’s the matter?” shouted the driver. “Hush !” said the doughboy in a low and rt&nnissed whisper. “You’re head ed straight toward the German lines. For God’s sake turn around and don’t speak above a whisper.” ■ I “Whisper, h !” boomed the i driver. “I’ve got to turn four mules I ! around.” i If everybody loved Irish stow there -1 wouldn’t be enuf green vegetables to ;■! go ’round.

In Lithuania, when a bee stings a man lie turns the other cheek. And almost literally, at that, because it is a sin to kill a bee, and no one ever commits that sin intentionally. As a result of their natural fondness for bees, Lithuanians, with the growth of their economic system, have devel oped bee raising from a general social custom to an important industry. Thousands of barrels of honey are ex ported from Lithuania annually. Almost everyone In Lithuania has at least one bee hive. Sometimes they have swarms of thousands. But it is common even in the cities to have a man serve you midus that is made from the honey gathered in his garden hive. Midus, the national drink of Lithuania, is made from fermented honey.
