MILITIA RESERVEHAS "TAPS" DINNER
What was called on the bill of fare"Taps" dinner for the Westfleild
Company, New Jersey State MilitiaReserve, Capt. H. B. Wright, com-manding;, was given on Monday nightIn the Parish House of the EpiscopalChurch. Instead of being the solemnoccasion which "Taps" over the deadsignifies in inUI'tary parlance, thedinner was an occasion for livelymerry making and there was no corpseto bury. In tact, the company de-cided'to remain very much alive and>hold an annual dinner as long as thememories of the comradshlp occasion-ed by the company's three years ofservice remain green. However, thecompany went formally out of exist-ence as an organisation in the ser-vice of the State, and every man pres-ent—66—received from Capt. Wrighta certlllcate of h'onorable discharge
an evidence ol faithful perform-ance ol duty.' Those who wore un-able to bo present will receive theirdischarges also.
The hall of the Parish House wherethe dinner was held was decoratedwith the national! colors, one big flagbeing liung across the stage and an-other over tho balcony, while thecolors which the wives and swoot•hearts of the members gave to thecompany two years ago, and the com-pany's American Hag were also con-spicuous. The tables were arrangedon throe sides and >ut the end tablessat the taastmaster, the Jolly andpopular chaplain, the Rov. E. J. Hoiden, pastor of the Baptist Church,Capt. Wright and First Lieut* Wihttney, flunked on either aide by mem-bers of tho company.
The One and loyal spirit amongthe men was strikingly displayed inthe presence of' private Frank K.Pole, who came all the way fromLawnediaJe, Fa., to attend the dinnerand M. H. Cobbi who came from NewYork City; S. W. MlUer, wlo camefrom Montclatr, and B. E. McWJhln-ney, who Journeyed from his home InRed Bank to greet his old comrades.'"Bob" B. Mftltble postponed « trip toCanada just to be present.
During the chicken dinner whichwa» served by Mrs. Ludlow and herstaff, a colored orchestra from NewYork played and two of the playersBang. They were the real thing. Inbetween the members talked of oldtimes while in the servlco and dlMsed the long-to-bc-rememberd battleof Branch Brook Park. In wWch theconvpany suffered heavy casualties;the siege of Morgan and the bottle ofAckermar's Hills. In between theeata tho colored singers led the company in singing "Thero's a IjonK, UmgTrail,' "Annie Roonoy." "0 , What aPal Waw Mary," "lMngs on My Fin-gers," "Good Old Summer Time,'and others. The ever obliging TomMurray recited two short pieces ef-fectively and the company's old timequartot, Messrs. Perrow, McWhlnneyMeyer and Hall, sang "Pack Tip YourTroubles in Your Old Kit Itag" and"Seek Ye the Uml," in'such fashionas to ovotoe the warmest applause.
After the good things had beendisposed of and cigars and cigaretteswere Hinted, Chaplain Holden beganpawing out a line of 'bull" as ho call-ed It which kept the diner* in roarBof laughter. He told how he hadbeen greeted by Maurt. Whitney whenthey mot in the evening, end all abouthis own heroic and malodorous ser-vice as a soldier on guard at thetown disposal tarm. There weremany other things he said and thenone of the colored singers sang a par-ody on "You'd bB Surprised," makingCapt. Wright and Ueut. Wihitney thetargets. WoH, you'd be surprisedtoo, if "x>u know what the reverendtoflMmoater said. The "Leader" mandoesn't intend to tell and If any ofhis flock want to know they willhave t«/ask him. Anyhow It pleasedtho company and sot them all a-ronr-mg. •
By unanimous standing vote thecompany decided to hold an annualdinner every winter, the time andplaco being left to the entertainmentcommittee. Tho company also ac-ceptod an Invitation proffered by Pri-vate Louis Corby to have a dinnerand outing next sumer at his CedarI^ako cottage, where bo promisedoverybody a good time.
The company voted to give thecompany flag to tho Public Mbraryand the company's American flog tothe town to bo on view in the Councilrooms. Much credt folr the successof the dinner is due U> Parley S.Ketclmm, T. M. Jones, Oliver Halland tho dinner wound up with threecheers tor the colored entertainersand the singing of "For He's a JollyGood Follow."
A Rugged Old Fashioned ManA. Lincoln is the way he usually signed his name and
he is credited with the following utterance:
"By thrift and economy will our nation pros- '
per; by wHete and squandering will it ptrish."
What could bo a more fitting tribute to this great man
on his birthday than to commence assisting the pros-
perity of our nation and the world by practicing loth
"Thrift and Economy"!

Humble Flowers Had a Deeper Sig-nificance Than the Costly Prod-
ucts of tie Florlst't Art
"The most touching tribute ever paidto Lincoln," Is the way a newspaperman described un lucident which liewitnessed a few years ago In Washington. The statues of famous Amer-icans stand In the national capltol,and It Is the practice of various pa-triotic societies to decorate these stat-ues with flowers each Decoration day.Among these marble effigies of thedrad Is the splendid Gutzon Borglumbust of the miirtyred President Thepathos of H grout heart, breaking un-der the Hues of u nation dividedagainst Itself, has been chiseled Intothe stone by the Inspired sculptor.
On this pnrticulnr Decoration daythe choicest products of the hothouseand the gardeu had been placed lov-ingly on the brows of Washington, ofLee, of Grant and roony others. Awreath of the richest roses the art ofthe florist could produce lay uponthe brows of the Lincoln bust.
The women whose reverent handshad put these tributes In place hndgone, when into the great rotunda ofthe copltol, almost deserted as alwaysit Is on R holiday, hobbled an old ne-gro, holding by one hand a little boy.a grandchild, perhaps. In his armsthe old negro carried B great muss ofthe golden-centered daisies which growIn luxuriant profusion In every Heldaround Washington. To keep the (low-ers fresh a dampened cloth was boundabout their stems.
Across the marble floor shuffled thoaged negro and his little charge. Witha directness tlmt showed he hnd lniiilethe sacred pilgrimage oftentimes before, the one-time slave led the way towhere the Lincoln bust rested uponits pedestal. The negro, with eyesdimmed with age and tears, gazed foi"a few minutes upon the face of themartyred President, his lips movingas If In silent prnyer. Then histribute, the tribute of n race Hct free,he laid, not on the pedestal with thecostly trophies of the hothouse, buthumbly In the clust at the pedestal'sfoot.

"1 often think of the stepmother ofLincoln as nn example of the deep andquiet and far-reaching power of awotmui, n woman who thinks and loves.A commonplace woman, no doubt, mostpeople thought her, and she probablythought herself so, too; a woman cer-tainly, whose dally work was humbleenough to nil appearances, n pioneerwomnn meeting the many needs of therough and hard pioneer life—that wasnil she seemed to be.
"If any one of yon had seen her Inthe little rough log cabin at the home-ly, never-ending household tanks whilethe boy Lincoln lay stretched beforethe fire rending one of the few hooksthat that life nnd community afforded,you would hardly hnvp thought of heras a woman of Influence.

Connecticut GovernorApplies Common SenseTo Railway Situation
Governor Lake of Connecticut is a practical engineer. After a pornonttl
investigation of the ntreot ruihvuy situation in that State he sent a message to
the Legislature urging tlmt relict be dfforded trolley corapimioB and that jit-
neys bo regulated by the State Utilities Commission, "not to further the
financial interests of either electric railway owners or jitney proprietors, bnt
to promote the publio welfare and to assure by fair means ample transporta-
tion facilities." - . • '
In Part the Governor Said:"Until it has beon convincingly
shown that the motor bus or jit-
ney, as a transportation medium,
can fully and at all times fill the
place of the electric car * * *
with the same measure of safety,
* * * I believe it to bo your
duty to see that the present elec-
tric railway service is rendered
possible and to prevent, by all
reasonable methods, any interrup-
tion of such serv ce. This entails
regulation of the public motor
bus, its routes of travel, and theinclusion of it among other classesof common carriers with similarduties and responsibilities, Reg-ulation of this sort by separatemunicipalities * * * has, Ibelieve, been satisfactory to noone.
"Costly experience ha3 taughttlmt tho publio is better and moreeconomically served in publio util-ities under well regulated monopo-lies than under irresponsible com-petition."

Plainfield, N. J., Feb. 3rd, 1921.
Dear Helen:
Tlure are so many things I want to say to you I scarcely know where to
begin, lit the first plaee mother particularly requested that I write you tonight
and ask you and Charlie to come down next week to take in the great furniture
sale of Johnston's Furniture Store in the Babcock Building.
You know the placo I mean, that lovely furniture store where Aunt Mar-
garet bought her beautiful bed room suite. Well, Mr. Johnston is going out
of business. Like some of the unfortunate fellows in the read just merit of
things, thfi rent of his store was increased beyond what he tells AValter his
business will stand.
Gelling back to mother's idea in having you come down at this time, is,because she went through Johnston's store the other day with Mrs. Smith andthey made some remarkable small purchases, while mother in her observingway, saw "just what Helen wants" in a dining room suite. She amused us allthe way she raved about its beauty and she emphasized her feelings regardingthe price by suddenly bringing the flat of her hand abruptly to the table anddeclaring she never saw anything in Plainfield in her time to equal it; and youknow mother.
I'm afraid you will think I'm boosting Johnston's Sale too much if Idon't ring off on tin; subject soon, but Helen, it's the talk of the town and it'sthe truth about his going out of business, and mother insists you take advan-tage and complete your home now in the dandy articles this big store sells.
We passfd Ilicre this afternoon and from the looks of the place they mustbe selling fnruilurc all right. Mother has just called down that I must not for-get to remind you of the magnificent line of rugs Johnston has, too, and I couldsay a whole lot of things more, but I must go on with my house work or getthe dickens at school tomorrow.
We'll be looking for yon. Love to you both from the family.

MOVIES AT THE HIGH SCHOOL
A. great treat is in store {or loversof Dickens at the Westfleld HlgbSchool on Wednesday, Feb. 16, whenWilliam Ftox will present his super-production "A Tale o-f Two CHies.'"None of the* many novels written bythe famous English author has hadthe hold upon the American peopleachieved liy "this thrilling story of theFrench Revolution.
Equally Important with the an-nouncement of tho picture is the factthat William Farnum assumes theduaJ role of Sidney Carton ajidCharles Darnay—a task that testsand proves the intense dramatic pow-ers of this favorite of the screen.
The many passages of Dickens'book surcharged with emotion en-ables Mr. Farnum to display hisabilities to a marked degree, and aphotoplay of record-breaking im-pressiveness Is promised.
Tenee court-room scenes; ins sac-rifice of an erring man to aave thesweetheart of the woman he loves;secret meetings of the fanatical andbloodithlrsty revolutionists; a beauti-ful wedding ceremony, and a thril-ling escape from the maddened mobsof Paris—these are a few of the ab-sorbing Incidents In the super-pro-duction.
Large sums of money "were epentby Mr. Fox to assure Mr. Farnumsettings wholly in keeping with thespirit of t i e Btory, and the scenes InEngland and In France are exact du-plicates of t ie locales about whichthe English novelist wove tho storythat endures in the hearta of menand women everywhere.
"NAT" PENDLETON
"Nat" Pendleton, rocontly crown-ed Olympic champion holds sevenother heavyweight championships.He held the Intercollegiate champion-ship for four years while wearing theblue and wihlto for Columbia. Meheld tiie National Clidmiplonsblp forthree years prior to going into pro-fessional ranke. Since he started 'towrestle professionally he baa wondecisions from Tommy Draak, cham-pion of Holland, whom ho threw inlesa than lour minutes; Joe Mollsh,of Poland; Fred Yuska, 220 poundBohemian; Mick Romano, one timeking of the Italian heavy weights;Alex Hedlund, the g<iant Finn, andCharlie Johnson, Sweden's strongman.
"Soldier" Leavitt and "Nat" Pen-dleton have met twlco before on themat. On the first occasion tho Armyehamplan was thrown by Pendlotonin an extra period. The second timethey wrestled In Madison Square Gar-den for twenty-four minutes to nodecision. In vlow of this last matchboth men are anxious to meet againand followers of the mxjrt are guar-anteed that they will witness an en-counter whore both men Tire In ear-nest to win the decision. Nat Pon-dleton weighs 207 pounds against thosoldier's 235 pounds.

Time docs not diminish the ad-miration of the Ameri-
IincoLn'u can people for AbrahamBirthday. Lincoln. Aa the world
learns more of the truo•ignifianco of Lincoln's career 1UBfaino will bo enhanced and it hastaken less than half a century forhim to grow from a national idealto a figure of world wide interest.
It has not been an easy matterfor Americans to admit that themost effective portrayal of Lincolnhas been mado by a man who wasnot born or raised in the UnitedStates but there is no longer anydoubt that Drinkwater's play hastaught us more about Lincoln thanever was known prior to its pro-duction. That play gave the pres-ent generation an opportunity toseo Lincoln and learn of his won-derful nature in a most attractiveway, one that timo never willerase.
This nation owes a debt of grati-tudo for that play and it hasbrought about a revival of inter-est, the study of Lincoln's career,that probably would not havobeen possible through any otheragency. While Lincoln lived hewas subjected to the same sort ofjealousy and vituperation that allleaders of men muat encounter.Today wondor is expresed that miindignant public did not destroyhis detractors.
Abraham Lincoln needs no ad-ditional word of praise at thistimo. His example and his workwill live forever. Every loyal citi-zen will honor the day of hisbirth.

Wallborg PoRt of the AmericanLegion lins shown thn
Showing poople of Wcntiield whothoWay. tho members of that or-
ganization regard as thrmoat siiitnble memorial for tinmen who gave their lives for tlipiicountry. The talk of buying lnni1
and developing a public park am'calling it n memorial has found mfriends nmong tho men who renlhhavo served in the army durin;any of the wars.
The installation of the Post iitho venerable old Prospect Schon'building can be nothing more f tinta temporary arrangement and it i-tho duty of tho town to provide th<right sort of a memorial for tinmen who served. Eventually a
memorial will be provided but theefforts to saddle the taxpayers ofthe town with an additional parkmust be thwarted. The membersof the American Legion cannotsee where the living can be Ix-ne-lited by the park and in the erec-tion of a memorial building theliving may be aided and Ihe deadwill be property honored.
It is scarcely necessary to re-view Die reasons that exist in fa-vor of a memorial building whichwill be a real memorial and keepalive the patriotism of the com-munity. When the RecreationPark property was taken over bythe Board of Education the muchfavored idea of a memorial fieldivith suitable buildings surround-ing it was of necessity abandoned.The former service men believe amemorial building is the properplan and they should have theirlay about this matter.
n n »Failure of the existing authorities
to put 11 stop to (lie ae.Befogging tivities of criminal)the Issue, and the recurrence
with alarming fre-quency of hold-ups simply em-phasizes the necessity for the or-ganization of a state const abularyor a stnte police force. AttemptRto substitute a system of countypolice simply befog the issue andthreaten to make it impossible toenact the laws that are imperative-ly required right now.
No system of county police willdo the work that is required atthe present time or will ordinarilybe expected from a state policeforce. The county police systemwill be more expensive and in mostof the counties such a police forcewill become a political footballproviding patronage for a fewleaders and a comparatively softberth for a lot of political hangers-on.
The responsibility «f any countyorganization will be restricted to alimited territory and the prevalentsystem of "passing the buck" willonly bo maintained on a largerscale. Some of the counties willprobably maintain a well dis-ciplined organization while inmost of the counties political con-ditions will make an effective forceand impossibility.
In several states the county sys-tem has been tried- and its inef-ficiency as compared with the statepolice system has been well dem-onstrated. New Jersey cannot, af-ford to make a blunder in this im-portant matter and the Legislatureshould lose no time in passing thenecessary laws that will make itpossible to provide proper policeprotection throughout the state.
If there had been a detail ofslate police on patrol anywhere inthe neighborhood of the BaltusrolGolf Club last Saturday night itis not at all probable the hold-upin which one of Elizabeth's promi-nent citizens was shot, would hnvobeen attempted.

EVKHYHODY'B DAY

w*hen spring cleaning will be with ueagain.
Let's be ready for it, improve uponthe work of past years, and malethis town a place of beauty.

The logical way to do a thins Isto pitch right in and stick to It, un-til It Is done, and then hold It there—don't allow any slipping or slidinghack to the old level.
Modilocre results may be goodenough for some localities, but theyare not satisfactory to the people ofthis town. Wo want something bet-ter, something out of the ordinary,quite In keeping with the thrift andIntelligence of our community.
Why ran't we have a general springcleanup day, when every citizen willget out and put the polish on ourtown—remove the debris from certainstreets, clean up back alleys and un-used thoroughfares, and place thealamp of cleanliness, sanitation andbonuty upon tho whole community?
No Olio objects to closing the busi-ness houses for a day in order to holda town picnic or other celebration.That is a common occurrence all overthe country, and everybody has a ge-lntime.
But wlio over heard of a towndosing up business In order to take amunicipal hath?

Electricity Seems aDispensation of ProvidenceTo the Housewife
KLL t h r o u g h thea d e q u a t e l yequipped modernhome the magic
touch of electricity istransforming long, wearyhours of hard labor intoshort, easy moments ofplen?ant occupation. It islifting many heavy bur-dens from the housewife'sshoulders by attending toroutine tasks and relievingher of manual labors.
What an utterable joyand happiness it is to thehousewife, especially now,when domestic help is soscarce, to have electricity'sinvisible servants at herbeck and call, so that shemay have more time tofashion dainty things with
the needle, read the magazines of her "profession," mingle withher friends and guard the development of her children.
Electric Washers
NO longer need Monday or anyother day of the tteek be adny of martyrdom over tho
wash-board for the housewife, nowthat there are wonderful Electricwashing Machines ready to do thework for her. They seem to be adispensation of Providence to thehome-mnker and to the home.
It is, of course, somewhat of nproblem to decide upon the one rightWasher best suited to your particularneeds, but we make it a simple mailerby showing all the best makes (in-stead of the usual one or two) andexplaining the advantages of each,so that you mny be sure to make ahanpy selection. Included are:
The Easy Vacuum Cup Washer,the I.iiundryottc, the Thor, the West-ern Electric, ttie Geyser mid the Cof-fleld. This assemblage affords achoice from the most celebratedvacuum cup, rotary cylinder andoscillating types.
Electric Ironers
B ECAUSE the Simplex ElectricIroncr does, with far greaterease, in an hour what requires
half a day to do by hand, it is a greatboon to the housewife who wouldpreserve her health and personalcharm.
By using the Simplex Ironcr thereIs no standing for hours—no tramp-Ing from stove to ironing board—notired arms—no aching back—no ruf-fled disposition; just an hour ofpleasant occupation, guiding thelaundered pieces into the "feed-board." Large pieces can be ironedos easily us small.
This remarkable machine will ironalmost everything except fancy shirtwaists and elaborate frocks—nnd doso with a perfection of finish thntwill satisfy the most fastidious.
The simplicity, the ease and the ab-solute safety with which the Simplexmay bo operated make It the idea]Ironcr for tho home.
n IMBEROEK'B—nASrSMIMT.
Electric Dish Washers
ONE of the most important con-tributions to the solution ofthe servant problem is the
Electric Dish Wnsher, which does themost distasteful of household work—nnd does it so quickly and effi-ciently thnt the by-hand methodseems primitive indeed.
The Electric Dish Washer willwash, rinse nnd sterilize your dishesand silver rapidly and thoroughly.The finest china and glassware canbe washed with assurance of absolutesafety. There is no danger of break-age, as the dishes do not move andthe temperature in .the machine isconstantly equalized.
From our collecting of the leadingmakes you are certain to find thestylo and size best suited to your in-dividual needs. The following well-known makes are represented:
The Walker, a cylinder-shaped ma-chine; the Mermaid, an oblong ma-chine, and the Whirlpool, which iseasily moved about.
Electric Vacuum CA.. lers
NO precious woman's strengthis needed to make the floorsclean and keep them so when
there's a good Electric VacuumCleaner "on the job."
The Elbeco cleaner is the featureof our display. What a joy thisdustless method of sweeping rugswould have been to our grand-mothers! What a boon it is to thehousewife today!
The Elbeco possesses a remarkablesuction (or denning) power. A spe-cial finish in the nozzle loosens thedirt, cleans out nnd freshens tlie nap,and picks up the surface threads,litter and hair, while the powerfulsuction draws up the deeply im-bedded grit and dirt from the napof the rug.
Three other splendid makes are tobo found in our showing: the Ohio,the Premier and the Air-Way VacuumCleaners.

WE take great pleasure in telling the
public aobut WEHLIH pianos because
they are exceptionally good pianos.
We are very carefal in selecting the
makes of pianos •which we sell, because
we have built oar reputation on QUALITY
and we know that our future depends up-
on living up to our reputation.
Before we took the MEHLIN agency
for Plainfield and vicinity we made many
trips to the MEHLIN factory to inspect
the raw material and their methods of
construction. What we saw convinced
us that the MEHLIN piano is one of the
best built pianos in America today.
We would like to take yon to the
MEHIJIN factory and show you why we
have given the MEHLIN a place of dis-
•tiuction among the many high grade
pianos which we sell. Come to onr ware-
rooms tomorrow, hear this wonderful
piano and arrange for a trip to the factory
as our guests. It i3 only a short distance

VALENTINE VERSES.
To a Girl He Left Behind.
Dear Girl of My Dreams, I am coming.Back from war I am coming to you;
And I wonder what fate will be wait-ing for me,
And will you be glad I came through?It> so strange. They have called me
a brave man,And they gave me a medal or two;
In the fight I feared nothing—and yetI'm afraid
Of a email brown-eyed perton likeyou I
Do you know that I love you? I wonder.Oh, what ages and ages It seems
Slnct \ left you! Perhaps It's absurb,but I hope
That I've been the Man of YourDreams.
To His Fairy.If I Just dared to say It,
You sure cap bet I wouldRlgh*. up and tell you what I fee l -
Gee, but I wish I couldlOh, klddo, you're so classy,
With those big eyes of blue,You've got th* others beat £ *nlle—
There sure ain't none like you.
No chance for me—I know It,I'm such a roughneck g u y -
But If I thought you'd look at me,Oh, Boyl I'd make the try.
Belfeve me, you're som« fairy.You're better"n I deserve;
I'd send 3 Valentine—but 0 " .I Just ain't got the nervel
A Substitute.A Valentine I've Jrled to find
That's nice enough for you;But there Is none—so here's my heart)
I hope that It will do.
To His Mother.Today an old sweetheart,of mine
Is my most precious Valentine;My best and oldest sweetheart you
Are, mother dear. 60 loyal, truiAnd tender always. And your love
I cherish over and aboveEarth's fairest gifts. You've made of ma
All that I am and hope to be,Mother mine,My Valentino.
BEGINNING THE DAY
ill F A HAN begins the day In a good•*• humor," observed the professor,
"everything will prosper with him.""You talk as though beginning the
day In a good humor was as easy asfalling off a log," sold the lowbrowed
man. "I supposeyou have b e e nreading o n e ofthose fool sun-shine books, andyou think a muucun be lu a goodhumor J u s t bysaying he Is goingto be. Ilut.a mancun't control Illshumors any morethnn he can con-trol dreams.
"Some dayB Ifeel like the orig-inal Bunny Sam-
uel, and I just nnturally go aroundshedding light Into the dark plneos,nnd making everybody glad. At suchtimes the world seems an unqualifiedBuccess, and the fact that I wns borninto It does not cause me any remorse.If some prominent citizen backed roeup ngnlnst a fence nnd asked me whatmode me feel so gay, I couldn't givehim any helpful Information. I don'tknow, myself, what causes the chip-per feeling. I suppose It must be be-cause my works are in good condition,dolnc their digestive stunts nt the oldstand.
"After a few days the glad feelingpasses n\va'y, and Instend of being aSunny Samuel I become a MournfulMoses. I have all kinds of present I-nients of evil. 1 have a firm convic-tion dint the bottom Is about to dropout of everything, and that I'll bomixed up with the wreckage. I tnkea pessimistic view of everything, amigo grouching around until even thocows are sick of seeing me, and theygive me a lift with their hind feet nsB gentle hint Hint I should com« outof my tronco.
If a leading business man askedme to explain my niplnticholy I couldn'tdo It. The « i l d seems to he movingalong as llioi,gh nothing hnd hnpppned,the same old su;i la shining on the dayshift, nnd the scented zephyrs nreblowing through my whiskers as ofold.
"Often a man begins the day wrong,through some accident or unpleasantexperience, Then he knows why bolifts a grouch, but that doesn't helphim to get rid of \lt. This morning
wns lying In bed dreaming that Iwns the only original white hope, andthat I wns making n heroic effort tobring the laurels bark to the Cnueu-slnn race. I wns Just administeringnn uppercut that deemed destined tobring borne the bncon, when I fell outof bed and praetlcolly ruined my headagainst the floor.
"I come downstnlra In a beastly hu-mor, and after brenkfnst I went overand picked a quarrel with old Doo-llttle, BO that he hnd to shin up a treeto escape violence, nnd nil because Iwns feeling ornery. It wouldn't havebeen safe for any man to tell mo thatIn order to begin the day right nil aman has to do Is to begin It rl»lit.
"I luivo pone out from the house tomilk the cows In the morning, ninny ntime, feeling ns blithesome and gladns 11 dlckeyhlrd, nnd quite satisfiedthat the (lily was going to lie oneround of pleasure. Then a con' wouldgive me a poke In the ribs with oneof her celluloid horns, or push her bigspiny foot Into n brimming bucket ofmilk, nnd the Joyous stuff was nil oft*,and I'd be so sore nil clay flint AuntJulia would hand me my meals witha pitchfork.
"The other mornlni? I Rot up feelingso mean that I wns ashamed to lookIn the mirror. I wcr.t downtown nfterbreakfast, In the mood to rob a blindorpin grinder of his few plungednickels. Then I went to the post of-fice and got a registered letter. Am«n who had owed me 52 for liveyears had an lngrowinp conscience atlast, nnd sent the money to me. WhenI left the post office everybody com-mented on my winning smile nnd saidI wns tho little sunlieam of the town."

Washington ResigningCommand of the Army
December 18, 17*3, Qeorfe W u M ftMlpied h1« commlwlon u commanderIn chief of the army, and r*tlr*ed to pri-w-le life. During the flv« ye»rs follow-ing the clew of hi* mlHUry career h*found •ufflclent occupation In attandlngto the afffclrs of hia homestead and prop.« ty fctifl In fostering ihe PTOBTSHB of minative stute. He greatly halpAd, by hiecorreipondence, to brine the leading menof U\« country to % determination to formA more perfect union. He wai presfHcntof the Philadelphia convention of 1787,whtcn framed th« Oan«tltutlon of the Uni-ted States. Washington w u unanimouslychoien the flrst P re it dent or the Unitedtittle*, and on April 80, 1789, took theofcth of office In New York, where eon-i r « u w u then sitting. Al the close ofhi* term of office he was re-elected Unan-imously, and on March i, 1793. took thecftth of office tor the tecon* time.
Washington Type ofHighest Citizenship
In Hie formal ob«ervanee of the an-plverwry of the birth of Georjje Wash-ington, It la well to pnnse to reflectopon the character of the rann towhom ths American people owe theutmost debt of gratitude. His senr-Ices were rendered In the supremehour of trial and In the dark days ofnational birth. As soldier and asstatesman Washington stood supreme-ly the leader of the people,
Pulling nalde ell speculation SB towhat Washington would have done Inthis or In that specific sltuntlon ofmodern dnys, It can and should alwaysbe borne in mind that he would as-suredly have been for a strong gov-ernment, for the highest type of citi-zenship, for a devotion to a single al-leglnnce, and for the broadest possible•proud of education, He could nothave favored or fostered n spirit ofrevolt against the established Institu-tions, save by the legal and tlrtlnltelyappointed means, lie had rebelledagainst'the tyranny of Rrltlsh rule.He had led the American colonists In-to a victorious Independence. Rut tieconld never hnve sustained a move-ment of more dissent, conducted out-side the pflle of law or employing fheweapons of sedition.
George Washington was a patriot Inthe truest sense, true to his cnnvlc-tlona, true to the Institutions thnt hadbeen set up hore In substitution forthe colonial administration which of-fended the sense of Justice oven ofBritons of that day. Ho guided thenew government nipnhly, without nchart, finding the way carefully andBngadcrasly. He felt Iliat though thissew government I'm! been set up Inrevolt, It must be conducted in a spiritof universal acceptance by tire peopleof the principles that hud bften adopt-ed as Its foundation.
There Is no support tor the radicalsof today In the fact thnt George Wnsh-Ington was a rebel against the rule ofKing Qeorge. Ills example will nevernerve to Justify sedition or Intrigue orselfish class alignments seeking toOverturn that which has been rearedthrough nearly n century and a halfof painstaking, consistent develop-ment based upon the prlnclplo of thegeneral welfare and the co-operationof all the people.
WASHINGTON IN PRIVATE LIFEQladly One Up High Eitate for th«
Mora Tranquil Pleasure* ofMount Vemon.
Returning t» Mount Vemon afterthe surrender of Corawaiiia, QeorgeWashington wrote to Lafayette.
"I have heroine u private cltlnen onthe hanks of the I'otomnc In theshadow of my own vine and my ownfig IN*, free from thp bustle ofcamp, and Ihn busy scenes of publicMfe. I mn solacing myself ultli t | | , ,8 ( !

PUT GRANT AT DISADVANTAGELincoln's Little Story Probably Mor»
Effective Than Any Long Argu-ment Could Have Been.
One of the latest stories of Lin-coln Is given here:
The President was visiting Grantin his Virginia cimp, and the generalwas complaining of the lnlerferenceof the Washington bureaucrats. "Theonly use I liuve for the War depart-ment," he said finally, "is to famishme soldiers and supplies. But thedepartment mustn't Interfere with me.I am doing Ihe country's work, andmustn't be hampered."
"TIi:tc reminds me," said the Presi-dent, meditatively, "that reminds meof a man I knew out In Sangumoncounty, Illinois. He waa a deacon,and had the long-winded exhortationhetilt. In fact, he had It so bad thatpeople began to stay away from meet-Ing. One day the preacher met him.'Say, deaeon,' he said. 'I don't wantto curtail your religious fervor, butyou roust shorten up your eihorta-tlons. You're killing on* the member-ship of the church.' 'Can't help it,'said the deacon, 'I'm doing the Lord'swork, ana I mustn't be hampered.'"
Grant laughed and temporarilydropped the subject.
