Modern FIeroIsm.

It IS one OF the compensations. per
hapS the only one. OF the awful and
needless tragedy at Westheld shat IL
revealed at ieast two notable instances
OF heroism that makes one feel proud
OF his kind. one OF these was the
dying and unknown hero who said 10
the rescuers:
Don't mind me. I'm dom for. See
what you can do for some OF the 9th
erS"
The other-and fortuna tely the world
now knows her name-is Mrs. Hark-
sen. who lives at the scene of the
wreck. who saw the frightful crash
and at once notified the Fire Depart
ment and then promptly turned her
home into a hospital. used her re-
vOlver on two tramp ghouls. and was
ministering angel TO the dying and
injured.
There are others worthy OF grateful
memory for their bravery and devo-
ton at the scene OF disaster. but these
two-a man and woInan-proved
again that true chiSalry and real hero
ism are not lost 10 the world.-New
