as much respect to old age as old age
L L.. Ia -

as much respect to old age az old age
does TO the child.
Against the religious idea too often
impressed upon children. that men are
merely worms of the dust" the speaker
uttered a protest. LAS compared with
the Creator we may be worms of the
dust, but as His divine representatives,
made and fashioned In His image. we
have no right continuing in the wormy
stage, and no right to go around think
ing we are worms"
DR.. Hughes urged that the child be
trained to be self-active, to do what it
plans. He would have all children do
today the best thing they see TO do
and know how to do. AS a result Of
this activity, of this doing, the speaker
said that six benefits would accrue;
that the child would have more power
to do the same thing again, would have
more of n tendency to do the right
thing, would find Il JOY in conquering
and doing, would become conscious of
its own power and the responsibility OF
life. Then exclaimed the speaker; we
have love and duty working In har-
mony to the achievement of greater
and nobler ends"

assistants. Her presents. too, seem
to defy description in number and
costliness.
Even from China and Japan pres
ents have poured in, and the daughter
OF republic has been treated like the
daughter of king. No doubt her per-
sonal popularity and her likeness IN
character to her father explain much
of the enthusiasm.
And why should not all America be
interested in the wedding? 1t is not
at all sign that the sentiment Is
leaning toward monarchy when the
people call Mrs. Longworth the
American princess and shower upon
her all the attention that a real
princess would receive in England.
The daughter of man who has been
placed in the highest office within the
gift Of the greatest nation on the
earth is certainly entitled to respect
by those people and by all people.
She is, indeed, more truly entitled to
1t than is the daughter of a man, who
has become king simply because he is
the eldest son of another who was king
and the grandson, many times re-
moved, of some conqueror of the past

pie choose its honor and her father.

GEN. CHARLES n. GRosvENoR.

Burlington Hawk Eye.-The defeat
OF Gen. Charles H. sGrosvenor, Of Ath-
ems. Ohio, the famous republican
leader of many campaigns, is a sur
prise to the country, although there
had been premonitions of trouble In
his district. His retirement will be a
matter of widespread regret. AS he
has reached the age of seventy two
years, the close of his present term.
March 4, 1907, probably will be the
end of his public career. He was an
intimate personal friend of both Pres
ident Harrison and President McKin-
ley, one Of the house leaders and a
popular campaigner.
Gen. Grosvenor Is native Of Con-
necticut. Coming from revolutionary
stock, he found 1t second nature to
shoulder the musket In 1851, and he
did not lay 1t down until the close Of
the war. He enlisted in the Eighteenth
Ohio regiment. and was steadily pro-
noted until finally brevetted briga-
der general OF volunteers. In his ear
lier days he taught school near Athens
O., where his father settled. and stud
led law. In 1874 he was sent to the
state house and later served as speaker
for two years. In 1872 the fifteenth
district Of Ohio chose him as the
presidential elector to carry the vote
~ washington. Ills ursI appearance
in congress was in the forty ninth as
sembly, and he has missed but one
election since that time
Gen. Grosvenor accompanied Presi-
dent Harrison on one of his tours at
the time Burlington was one of the
points visited, and last year was the
guest of Congressman Hedge in this
city. He is most entertaining COM
panion and has an inexhaustible fund
Of personal experiences and stories of
public men and events.
