LITTLE STORIES
OF DAILY Life

Two men had an amusing ex-
perience the other day. They went
out mushrooming in an auto and of
course, when they arrived at the
mushroom patch, stopped the engine.
They spent several hours hunting
"rooms,' and along towards even
ing started back. Started-but did
not finish for some time. They made
the appalling discovery that the
crank to start the engine had been
left behind They pushed the heavy
auto up to the top of high hill in
order to let the engine get started by
the downward flight. Everything
went well. At the foot of the hill
the men jumped in and-the motor
stopped. Things began to take on a
"blue' tinge but the heavy auto
was pushed again to the top Of the
hill and kind Providence prevented
the motor from again stopping. Lat
err than was expected they returned
and the first thing they did was to
get long chain and chain the crank
to the car.
Spirits are all right, but they
should be fine linguists too. A spirit
was shown up by a Richmond man
not long ago on account of his fail
ure to understand German. At a
seance this man was asked if he
wanted to speak to his father, who
had bee II dead for many years. He
expressed wish to do so and after
while was told to begin. His faith
err answered all right for a while and

father in German. The father was
a good old German and Of course the
son supposed that his fathers spir-
| it could talk German as well as Eng
lish. But the medium failed to I'M
derstand the language Of the Father
land and the seance was effectually
spoiled. as the medium broke down
after the first effort. Moral-Always

A phonoeraph furnished the en-
tertainment for a missionary society
meeting not long ago. But a small
boy had been tampering with the
machine and his tamperi l@5 brought
forth startling results. "Jesus, Low
err Of My Soul' was the piece and the
phonograph began with the first word
of the hymn and stopped. 1t is said
that several present thought the ma

out Of mind-even in the days when the
Latin-Americans looked upon Europe as
the hub Of the universe-the pre-emincnt
superiority Of American military and
naval schools attracted the young men
of Central and South America, and It
has been the ambition Of many of them

disposed to hUmOr his smaller brothers

lies, and this Government on repeated
occasions gOod-naturedly allowed sons
OF prominent Latin-American families
TO enter our military and naval acade-
mics, special acts Of Congress being
passed in most instances expressly for
this purpose.
With the doors at the chosen goals
thus thrown open. however, one after
another of the Pan-American lads found
himself unable TO keep pace with his
American cousins in either studies or
athletics. How universal has been this
handicap is shown by a glance at the
record made BY the foreigners who have

tury. Only fourteen boys who were not
citizens of the United States have been
allowed to enter the famous military
school. and of this number only four
have graduated, the others having in al
most every instance withdrawn, been
dismissed or discharged and had the
stigma Of deficient" placed upon their
record. Even the few Pan-Amcricans
who did manage TO graduate did not

a Venezuelan. finished at the foot Of the
class OF 1903
It may not be readily apparent how
this disastrous series of failures made
by the sons or South and Central
American statesmen and soldiers could
have deepened the desire of young citi-
