Mr. White WAS born in 1914, and it's
therefore SO years OF age.
In addition to his remarkable re-
cord of continuous service Mr.. White
holds another that is decidedly
unique. Nearly every government
clerk takes the 30 days annual leave
allowed, and in many cases eXhausts
his 30 days sick leave. In all his

ceeded 10 days i'll his yearly absence

throughout his government service
in the office where the accounts of
the Postotfice Department are audit
ed. He was appointed att salary of
$64O Il year. For brief period he re-
ceived 81 900 annually, but in 1897,
on account of his increasing feeble
ness, was reduced to $40. Auditor
Henry A. Castle, his superior officer,
says Mr.. White does his work to the

Through the transparent darkness
the stars pour their almost spiritual

child, and his huge globe a toy. The
cool night bathes the world as with

for the crimson dawn. The mystery
of nature was never displayed more
happily. The corn and the wine have
been freely dealt to all creatures. and
| the never-brOken silence with which
| the old bounty goes forward has not
yielded yet one word of explanation.
One is constrained to respect the per-

senses converse How wide: how rich:

Surely the mystery ofnature can be
nowhere more happily displayed than

autumn days when the harvests have
