and hearty. He is full Of the celtic
vigor common to many Of the old
school of Irish immigrants, stating in
his droll way that to die Is the last
thing he expects to think about. His
tenacity in holding on to life was
amply illustrated few years ago.
when suffering from broken leg he
jokingly assured the attending physi-
clans that the vigor of a celtic consti-
tuition makes nothing of little thing
like that, and soon recovered from
the injury Notwithstanding that he
was then 80 years Of age. His health
Is quite good and he Is able to par

joys drinking his regular cup Of tea.
Came FROM Antrim.
William Brown first saw the light
in the far off city of Belfast, county
of Antrim, Ireland, February IA,
1915. During his early life he fol
lowed the occupation Of gardening.
Having served his apprenticeship, he
later connected with some Of the
nobility in that section as caretaker
of their premises. Among those for
whom he worked were: the Fillgett,
Jackson and Cunningham families. His
work necessitated comprehensive
knowledge of botany and his natural
inclinations led him into a wide range
of reading. Having easy access to
the books and magazines of that
period he soon became familiar with
the reports Of political freedom and
industrial opportunities to be found
in America, and the call of the rising
young Democracy of the western hem
isphere aroused in him the inspiration
to emigrate to the land of cosmic
destiny.

welcomed. His influence has been
particularly noticeable in the Young
Mems Christian association where he
has lent his service number of times,
both in the Sunday and social meet
ings. His relations with the church
have been of the most satisfactory
character. They have been as near
perfect as is possible for such to be.
For seven. long years harmony, the
harmony that results from perfect
understanding between pastor and
his flock, inspired by mutual love, has
existed.
DR. Stoltz has no definite plans for
the future. His home for the present
will still be in Ottumwa. He will
probably conduct the services at his
church during October as it is ex-
pected new pastor can be secured by

Hughes to think we'll long before
he speaks and acts. He is not ex-

takes Il stand, never INDUCES in
passionate utterances. He looks
upen public office as Il serious re-
sponsibility, not AS a pathway for
egotistic ambition. There is some
thing he values more than the
presidential nomination for him
self, and that is united support for
the best ticket the National Con
vention can evolve, whoever the
candidates may be. The Cover

he announces his willingness to
