THE ATHENAEUM 169 out my messages of salvation; but I don’t want to do that. I could take the waters in the palm of my hand and cast them here and yond er and roar out messages of salvation but I don’t want to do that. I could write messages of salvation on the leaves and caused them to be blown into all the homes but I don’t want to do that I have twelve little disciples whom I shall send into all the world to preach my gospel. The disciples following in the foot step of Jesus because the missionary leaders of their time. Northern Africa heard and de veloped the highest civilization of the time. But finally Mohamed- nism crossed over and cut the remnant of the northern church of Africa and it went into the jungles to bleed to death.” “Africa sank into utter darkness and the world turned her back on Africa and the she remains in darkness today.

The blushing Zalimier revealed the fact that there was a lady there. But the investigation went on and soon the whole story was revealed. A radio set with microphone in the examination room transmitted the questions to a young woman doctor concealed in Zalimier’s room. She then dictated the answers by telephone. The student had a microphone, so the electrician declared, con cealed under a bandage over a pretended cut on his finged. Complete paraphernalia for a five tube wireless set and the necessary batteries were part of the equipment. Oblivious of the love elements in this touching little romance, the university authorities have begun prosecution. Meanwhile the kitchen staff are commenting: “Now we understand why his orders indicated such an astonishing appetite just before the examination. He ordered ration for two.” —“New Student*
