1t is related of Millais, the Royal acad-
emy's new president, that when as a boy
he took his first prize for drawing he had
to stand on chai to make himself visible
to the audience. He was asked what he
would like as a special favor, and an.
swered, "Permission to fish in the Ser
pentne."
Bill Nye's humor was largely spontan-
eous. Once on Mississippi river steamer,
which was making slow progress on ac-
count of the low stage of the water, he
called attention to tall Minnesotan wear.
ing trousers with large checks. MARK
those checks and make him wade ahead
of the boat, so we won't have to heave the
lead so often," said Nye.
The Hungarian physicist Lenard sue
ceeded in S04 in photoQraphipg through
pasteboard by means of the rays emanat-
ing from the cathode or negative pole of a
galvanic battery. He published an account
of his experiments at that time in the An
nalen fur Physik und Chimie volume two,
page 225), with plates showing the re-
suits.
King Menelek of Abyssinia rejoices in a

civilized costume of her country.
There is living in st. Paul, Mimi, proba-
bly, the oldest married couple in the United
States. The husband, Louis Darwin, was
born in Montreal, Canada. on September
"a, 17Ss. His wife was born in the same
city on March II, 1894. Therefore their
ages are 1O7 and 1Ol years respectively.
Married in 1915, they have completed
eighty years of welded life. This aged
couple IS of tho opinion that marriage is
not a failure.
The insurance on the life OF the new
duchess of Marlborough for her husband g
benefit has had to be abandoned, owing TO
the technical difficulties in the way. Sir
Dyck Duckwor.h, who went to Rome on
behalf of the syndicate of London offices
concerned in the insurance to make an ex-
animation of the candidate, made satis-
factory report, and as it was practically a
case of insuring the duchess life against
that of her father, no difficulties arose on
that score. The difficulties were those of
officialdom and red tape.
Judge Culberson of Texas, who divides
with Representative Harmer of Philadel-
phia the honor of "father of the house of
representatives" is serving his eleventh
term in that body. Judge Holman of In
diana, whose term of service was the
longest of any member of the last house,
was i'll congress thirty years, and Mr..
O'Niel of Pennsylvania who preceded him
as ''father," died while serving his fiteenth
term. Mr.. Harmer is now serving his
twelfth term. He entered congress twelve
years before Culberson, but failed to be
elected to the Forty-fourth congress.

The Rev. Clarence True Wilson spoke
yesterday afternoon at the Y. NJ. G. A. hall,
taking for his subject How to House and
Hold the Young. In part he said:
The Y. NJ G.. A. was doing much to solve
this problem of the Christian ages. Young
men are not only to be the hope of the
church, but they are it's chief workers now.
1t is the enthusiasm and zeal of youth that
makes things go. and for this reason
almost all the great corporations are put
ting young men into the management and
giving them positions of trust and author
ity. 1t has been found that in this age of
severe competition the zeal and dare and
push of youth is of greater utility than the
experience and cautiousness of age. I re.

a calling for and the pushing to the front

vigor; for the glory of young men is their
strength. We must see the Importance of
this as secular organizations do before we
will ever win the world. "Historic evidence
favors the supremacy of youth over age.n

When Hannibal dealt his staggering
blow at the Roman on the plains of
Cannae, he was but 80 years of age.
A. 80 Charlemage was master OF France
and Germany.
AT 10 Charles XII. gained his great vic
tory at Narva.
And Napoleon was only 27 when he tri-
umphed on the plains OF Italy and showed
his ability to cope with the veteran gen.
erals of all Europe.
We are rising up today as we should
and honoring the old men. the veterans of
the late war, for what they did when in
their teens to hold this galaxy of stars in
one constellation to shine forever over a
nation of freemen without slave.
What is true of the workers is true of
the thinkers. At 25 the younger Pitt was
one of the foremost men in Europe and
prime minister of Great Britain. The
brightest-minded statesman America has
known was Alexander Hamilton, who at
26 was a leading spirit in congress, after
brilliant military service in the Revolu-
tionary war.
Bacon had conceived his dislike for the
philosophy of Aristotle and had started
out on his own philosophical lines of
thought before he was 20. Watt had the
steam engine clearly in mind before he
was 80, and was thinking in that direction
years before. Dante and Shakespeare,
Milton and Goethe gave evidence of their
poetic genius while yet young, and their
greatest works were inspirations from their
youth and early manhood.
The fact remains that today youth is not
necessarily a period of frivolty. but it may
be of awful seriousness They must see the
solemnity Of life and it's tremendous re-
sponsiblity. They must be taught the
absolute necessity of radical conversion,
revolutionizing the entire nature and gov
erning the thought, the ambitions, the pur-
poses of life. Then finally we must lay
burdens of duty and responsibility upon
the converted youth. Only thus can they
develop character.
