New Mexico, to SHT Namlipilpa, Old Mexico, so writes W. J(Wj1bV O. McGeehun In tliu New York Irl- w w liiine. H Down tlie trull from tlie base of the m fl punitive expedition swept n train of iB Mr lit) unto trucks. They were heavily vy laden with tliu variety of cargoes that are required for an army hi the Held. Kach truck carried four or live troopers In olive drali Miuatted Insecurely on top of the loud. The road was uneven, It was full of ruts, hut tlie mito truck train j-llded iiIoiik at the rate of from elsht to ten tulles an hour. The vehicles kept u perfect nllKiimcnt. The troopers swore softly hut earnestly as the trucks Jolted. Kven as the army mule watched, the sweating, swear ln truck train disappeared Into a cloud of dust he yond the border line. Then the mule tilted hack Ids dejected head and wive vent to a secret sorrow In one far-reaching vocal effort. As though mocl,ln his Krief, the horns ol the auto trucks tooted back de risively In the distance. The fcrlef of that army mule was the jxilef of Othel lo with Ids occupation pine. He sunk behind the Soto cactus and subsided Into palntul meditation, lie had Just seen hU finish. He realized at that moment that the army mule would never apdn bold a liluli place anion;: the lac tors which win battles. He realized that practical poets would no longer siti of the I flues whleti the army mule could display upon peat emergencies. He was already obsolete, down and out. Kven the "mule skinner," with the picturesque vo cabulary and the hard words, had abandoned him. The mule skinner was now ilrhlpj; one of those, auto trucks, and was addressing It with strained politeness when he spoke to It at all. It was all wronp 15y the martyred initio of Matau.as, of which the army bards miiix during the Spanish-American war days, It was all wtoiikI Tlier.' was no use to pull against the auto truck, lie had tried it when they hitched him to the rear of one. lie decided to drnn the thlnt; back over tlio desert. Hut. Instead, lie was relentlessly drained on his haunches for a mile, and lie pive It up. The Columbus expedition has demonstrated that In the matter of army transportation "the mule Ih dead. Ioiik live tlie auto truck!" It had already been demonstrated at the battle of the Alarne, when motor vehicles checked the CJerniun advance and siived France. Hut our war department moves with excessive deliberation. It cIiiiib tenaciously to Its fulth In the mule until the tlrst auto truck train went KuluiupldiiK Into Mexico, milking three times the distance that u mule could make over muds which no motor-driven vehicle could be expected to trnvel. Tlio consequence was n rush order for auto trucks and drivers. The auto trucks are standing up wonderfully well. They plow through the ulkali dust up to the hubs, they Jolt over the rocky places, they flounder through the sundy wustes that grind the betlrlngs, and they puff through the mountain pusses. They go anywhere the mule will go. and they get there In better time. While the long trull from Columbus to Nnml qulpu Is lined with the enrcusses of mules and horses, the auto trucks go rumbling on In their work of keeping the Held unny supplied with food and ammunition. They perform new miracles upon every now emergency. There are several hundred nuto trucks at tho army base at Columbus. On a pinch those trucks could move an entire brlgude In one duy twice us far us all the horses and mules in the world could inovo It. This Is true, despite tho fact that muny of the trucks ure budly rucked becuuso of bud driving. Not only does the successful test of the nuto truck spell the passing of tho mulo train. It also meuns the pusslng of cavalry, the most pic turesque branch of the service. Kven cavalry offi cers In tho punitive expedition will admit thnt three or four uuto trucks will get u company of In fnntry twice as far on a forced murch a.s the best mounted troop of cavulry could trnvel. Cmalry charges are rare In these days of rapid fire rifles und muchlne guns. The horses ure used only to get the men to the front, where they op erate as Infantry. When the giiRollne-fed mounts can get them there ho much faster than tho horses. It begins to look bad for the cavalry horse. Tho United States army of the nenr future will travel extensively on gasoline. There will be few more heart-breaking Infantry hikes, and there will bo few more wild cavalry rides, leaving In their wnke dead und dying horses. Kven field artillery can be carried by the uuto trucks. All of this should have been realized before. Ono of the lusting benefits bf tho punitive expedition will bo the modernizing of the mllltnry transpor tation brnnch. Tho uuto truck bus pussed the Btern test. For tlio present the nuto truck trains with tho army in Mexico are not working under any definite nystem. Tlio organization of the truck train of tho United Stntes army has not been decided upon. Neither has tho type of truck to be used in tho organization been decided upon. Cuptalns und lieutenants nro busy taking notes as to net mile age and gasoline requirements; nlso, us to stability -find reliability of tho different makes of trucks In the service. The drivers are a mixed lot. Some uro regular jjyfzmm? 27?&ar 2jeMYA.?Aav2'juxziirs tt .- . ... t U 1OEHVOC " s.. fc.

The others are chauf feurs of all sorts, adventurers from all over the country, college men in search of experience, and even ex-talcab drivers from New York city. With some of the trucks under probation are men trom the factories. It Is a more picturesque body than any as semblage of mule skinners. The types are more varied and the views upon things in general are more Interesting. Moreover, the army chauffeur In the aggregate Is naturally more Intelligent (ban the mule skinner, whose clo-e association with the mule has given him some of the trails of that noble animal. To the average army chauffeur the stolid-looking, lumbering nuto truck Ik u beautiful and a living thing. On tlie road to Namiqulpa I listened to a colored sergeant of the Ninth cavalry who hud been de tailed to drive a live-ion truck. He was uddresslng Ids vehicle. "Yes, Hetsy, old girl." he was snylng. "Ah knows that this hero cheup government gasoline ain't tho proper nourishment for a high-toned lady truck like you. Hut when we gets to Cornllltas Ah'm go ing to put some of that nice cool spring water In your radiator. That'll freshen you up a whole lot, Hetsy. "Does you-nll want n little more oil In your bear lugs, Hetsy? If you does, Jos' suy so. 'Taln't no trouble at all for me. Ah Jes' thought you might, because your pretty engine was breathing a little bard on that last hill. Ah don't want any of them fresh New York chauffeur a to think you wus com plaining, Hetsy, becuuso mo and you knows that you don't complain." ' The colored trooper adjusted some pink and green ribbon which wus tied to the truck radiator. The whistle of the truck mnster blow. The ser geant whirled the crunk, listened sollcltou&ly for an Instant to his motor, and swung Hetsy Into Hue with her mates. One of the difficulties which the captain of nn uuto truck encounters Is In maintaining dlsciptlno with a mixed company of civilians and soldiers. Civilian drivers have their own notions as to how auto trucks should be driven. It Is tho theory of the captain that the uuto train should hnvo a per fect alignment, with the trucks u hundred yards apart. The civilian drivers cannot seo the necessity for this. Some of them want to show thnt their trucks can travel the fastest. Others Insist thnt their trucks lie carefully handled. The result Is that tho cnptuln, fuming Inwurdly, has to be u diplomat when he Is In command of a mixed train of trucks. One of these trains stnrted out nt the rate of Vi tulles an hour. A short distance nut of Columbus It encountered bad roads. A now truck slowed down und began to pick tho going. The cuptaln shot 'cross-country from the reur In his standard runabout to see what was cutting his train In two. "What's the trouble?" ho demanded of tho ci vilian driver. "No troublo nt nil," replied tho driver. "But eight miles is all that I nm going to do with this loud and over this sort of road. You can go uheud with those Harney Oldflelds If you wunt to. I'll catch up with you after half of those trains uro wrecked." The cuptaln was a trifle ungry. Ho reminded the driver that all trains were ordered kept Intact. It wus no 'cross-country nice. It was a mllltnry truck train. Tho driver was obdurate, and tho train hud to slow down to a rensonublo pace. The driver was right, though very unmllltury. The loads wnlch tho trucks were carrying were not needed In a harry. But if he had happened to bo an unny driver he would be In tlie guardhouse for a considerable period for Insubordination. More than once tlie army in Mexico has been forced Illegally but practically to discipline some of the ci vilian drivers. The most startling Incident of this vi.-i h,nn..n,.,l to n lniiicli of Now York tuvleufc drivers who were shipped out to handle u train made up of a certain uniform make of trucks. They got HO miles Into Mexico, ami men nci-meu that tliey did not like the country nt all. They agreed that the United States government was foolish to go In at all. Their spokesman went to the captain and In formed him that they had decided to go back. They did not like the food, the water wus not Iced, and there was no beer In the godforsaken place. Whereupon tlio captain gave orders to tlie sergeant of Ids guard. Tho noncommissioned oWcer In formed the drivers that the first of them who turned hack to Columbus would be systematically idiot up. The drivers protested that they were American citizens and wanted their rights. The sergeant listened unmoved as he drew up his squad Into a convenient place for tlio shooting. The drivers fhmlly concluded that they were too far away to consult their attorneys, and tho train proceeded to Namiqulpa. Camping out nway from a garrisoned town, the truck trains take tho same formation that was used by the emigrant trains when they wero forced to guard against Indian attacks at night. Tho trucks ure distributed In n circle, with the cnptnlu's runnbout, tho cook truck and tho ammunition truck in tho center. Placed In this formation, tho truck train Is In a difficult position for a bandit bund to rush. No doubt, many n band has been watching those vnlunhle trains of food and ammunition, longing to pounce upon them, hut they refrained. A well ordered truck train could get Into hnttlo formation In a few minutes, and the Springfield rifles would bo covering every point of nttack very effectively. A qunrter of a million dollars In gold was shipped In with one train, guarded by .10 picked marksmen. Hundlt bands, knowing of this, prob ably longed to rush It, but they did not make the attempt. At night, In Its proper formation, with Its outposts alert, the well-conducted train should bo Impossible to surprise. Hut civilian driven are hard to convince of the necessity for remaining alert. They will lock their ammunition In the tool boxes; and, while they are painfully solicitous of the mechanism of their trucks, they have no re gard for tho mechanism of tho Springfield rifles which nro issued to them. They hnvo no respect for shoulder straps. A typical Incident was ono near Kspla. The truck train drew Into the place hot and dusty. Tho news was spread that there wus u real swimming hole 'JO feet deep In tho place. Soldier guards and civilian drivers made n dnsh for It. As they nenred It they heurd a delicious splashing, but a sentry halted them. "Sorry, hoyB," ho said, "but there's an olllcer bathing thero now, and tho orders nro that nobody Is allowed In till ho gets through." A big ex-tnxlcnb driver from New York proceed ed to peel off Ids army uniform. In another min ute ho dived Into tho pool with a mighty splash. He came to tho surface und grinned cheerfully nt the Indignant expression of the second lieutenant, outraged at tho fuct thnt his privacy had been dis turbed, apparently by the enlisted man. "Oh, that's all right!" shouted the auto driver. "I don't mind If you nro a little hit dirty. Come on In. Tho water Is fine." Hut one of these days the truck train will be sys tematized. Tho drivers will nil bo enlisted men. There will bo a fixed into of speed, and tho trucks will all bo up to determined specifications. When the truck train Is perfected, the mulo tridn will go. Also, tho prldo of tho cavalry will bo trailed In tho gasoline-scented dost of tho uuto truck train. (Temperance Lesson.) True ministry Is In the exercise of iplrltiuil gifts (Kph. -I :T-ir). Kvery believer Is a member of Hie bod) of Christ, and therefore has a dellnlte uliilstry. Though the gifts lire di verse, all are equally honorable be cause they are bestowed, ndmlnlstered and eiicrglircd by the Holy Spirit, l.ove alone gives value to the ministry of any gift. I. Fill tho Gift With Love (vv. 1). Just as the body Is dead unless a liv ing soul abides In and Inspires It, so Is the gift unless tilled with the spirit af love. This Is the "more excellent way" to which Paul makes reference nt the conclusion of Chapter 11!. In praising love Haul does not fall Into the error of criticizing others, not even his followers, and suggests that even V may be wanting In this trait. Tho Corinthians were eager to attain ex--ellence and to be prominent In wis Join and philosophy; to understand the world In which they lived; to bo scholars and teachers and Improve and correct society. Paul therefore shows how vain are such things unless tilled with the motive of love, (t) Tho gift of tongues. The saints In the church nt Corinth seem to have been particularly gifted In this direction, and to huve been proud of It, (Ch. 11 : IM!!!) mid eager to outstrip the others. Paul 'ells them that such boasting amount! to Utile. The grace of love Is a far more excellent way. (1!) Tho gift of prophecy. Tlie New Testament prophet was a fortb-teller, not a teller of the future. To be n fortb-teller wus a thing to lie coveted and admired, but not unless accompanied by love. (II) Miracle working. A man can have this In the most powerful form con ceivable, and yet If ho has not love, he Is nothing. II. Lqve Is Known by Its Mani festations (vv. -1-7). Having shown tho absolute necessity of love Paul shows how we tuny recognize It. The behav ior of love can be seen anil known. Paul set for us 15 munlfestutlons. (1) l.ove sulTorclh long. I.ove Is no pass ing emotion, but n fixed thought. (1!) It Is kind. Kindness In action, lovo at work. (!) Love envleth not. It does not grow out or selfishness, for selfishness 1st tho very opposite of love. () l.ove vaunteth not Itself, does not climb to tho housetops to proclaim Its glory. (5) Is not puffed up. Thero Is no Inflation, like n soap bubble, to dazzle tho eye. (0) Does not bohnvo Itself unseemly, thnt Is without dell ency of feeling. Unseemly conduct grows from pride and seklshness, whereus love Is the foundation of true courtesy. (7) Seeketh not her own. Is not looking out for self first of nil. (8) Is not enslly provoked ; good tempered, not irrltnble. To lose one's temper la a dnngerous evil. The evil In nt so much In the temper but In our failure to control It. (0) Thlnketh no evil. PutB tho best construction upon the acts of others, making all possible al lowances. (10) Hejolceth not In Ini quity. (11) Hejolceth In the truth, thut Is, Is In sympnthy with all thnt Is true. (12) Beareth all things; endureth hardships and trials for the working out of the kingdom. (13) Bellevetli all things; not credulous but putting the best construction upon tho words ol others, and having faith in the final outcome of every good cause. (14) Hpeth all things; Is not discouraged in the dark and shadowy days, tia Endureth all things ; it goes on believ ing and hoping to tho end; no obstacle can stop it. Surely such a catalogue of the marks of love is enough to make us all pause and meditate. III. Tha Permanence of Life (vt. 8-13). The word "falleth" here denote falling to the sense of cessation, nnd love Is contrasted with three typical but parsing forms of Christian ex pression. (I) "Prophecies ;" not the things prophesied but tho gift or net of prophesying (v. 3) which at best can only partially express God's word. Prophecy will puss away In tho fuller vision nnd wider Unowledgo of God "Who is love." (2) "Tongues." Tho tlmo will como when they will not bo needod as u sign nor to enable us to express our varied emotions. Tho di vinely Inspired prophecies tell hut a purt of what Is yet to be. (3) "Knowl edge." It shall be done away In tho fuller knowledge of tho eternal world as tho light of tho stars vnnlsh heforo tho rising sun. When thut which Is perfect Is come theso lights will be seen to ho only llko tho separate stones of a quarry which can only bo fully understood when th whole building Mandi beforo us In Its completion. Pnul gives an illustration of this truth from the familiar case of tho growing child (vv. 11, 12). In conclusion (v. 13) faith, hope, lovo abldcth, threo graces, Imperishable and Immortal. "IIopo is a fountain; faith draws the water and drinks ; lovo distributes tho water to others," Dr. J. II. Jovvctt. But tho grentest of theso Is love, (a) Lovo Is greater In Its nature. It brings us closer to God, making us partakers of his nature. It Is tho ono thing with out which faith and hope are of little avail, (b) It is powerful as an In fluence for good and tho strongest mo iirZKKQIM DAISY FLY KILLER :;; yttft ilt, nl. fin, or. nmnUt,connlfnl, rirnp.
