parded the crowd Of pleasure seekers
+hro,,oh taar blinded ewes,

garded the crowd of pleasure seekers
through tear blinded eyes.
Then the manager of the entertain
ment came clustering up with the
warning that the parade was ready to
start. Juliet swung the captain up TO
her neck, and under the direction o.
his hook she moved off with stately
tread to take her place at the head OF
the line.
IS the great mass paced along be-
tween the lines of eager spectators the
CAPTAIN no longer watched the crowd.
His thoughts were far away across the
water with the little madchen.
Juliet proudly led the way. enjoying
the surprise she excited and glad or
the opportunity to parade. She did not
need guidance when the way was so
plainly marked, and, rejoicing in the
fact that the children along the line
we're generous with their peanuts and
candy. she kept a watchful eye on the
crowd.
A CRY of terror reused the captain
from his day dreaming. Juliet was
excitedly trying to force her way
through the crowd, which broke and
scattered before her. Captain used the
hook OH ears and trunk; but, though
Juliet trumpeted shrilly in her pain.
she obeyed neither hook nor voice. A
dozen alert policemen sought to break
her charge, but they hastily lodged
aside at her approach. Then a cry OF
horror ran through the crowd.
A little girl, evidently one of the pa
raiders on her way to the start. stood
directly in the elephants path. One
of the policemen sprang to her rescue,
but before he could reach her Juliet
had caught her around the waist and
had lifted her nigh in the air.
Strong men turned aside that they
might not see the child dashed to
earth again, while others stood fasci-
mated by the sight. But instead OF in
juring the child Juliet swung her light
ly back to the captain. who caught
her in his arms with a cry Of joy.
Juliet then swung her huge hulk and
docilely returned to the parade with
the captain still holding Gretchen with
one arm. While with the other he pat
ted the trunk that was held up for a
sugary reward.
"My impresario died." Gretchen
was explaining. 81 ran away and

Captain Kidd Slipped another lump
of sugar to the insistent trunk.

said with a little laugh. "But l nm
glad that Juliet found you. Now l

The foregoing is the simple but sig.
nificant epitaph on the monument re
Gently erected to Aidshipman James
Grouse in Arlington cemetery, Wash.
ington
1t tells in a graphic way the story of
the noble sacrifice of a lad of tho
American navy only little over nine
teen years of age.
The boy died from injuries received
in an explosion in the turret Of the bat
tleship Georgia while at target practice
on Cape Cod bay.
If you will go to the files of the
newspapers you will find these particu-
lars:
The gallant Grouse was at one of the
guns in the turret. His classmate and
chum. A1idshipman Goldthwaite. served
another gun. The latter died from his
injuries inside Of two hours. Grouse
was frightfully wounded, besides be-
ing badly burned. He got out of the
turret. Hearing cries for help. he pain
fully retraced his steps. He took hold
and helped to care for the injured sea-
men. While doing so some one called
attention to his own deplorable condi-
ton 1t was then he uttered the words
chiseled on his monument:
Never mind me. I'm all right. Look
after the other fellows"
He was afterward taken to the hos
pital, where he died unfinehingly.
And that is ALL
At least that is all the newspapers
tell about Grouse and what he did.
But that is not all that is worth say
ing. Because
An act of heroic self abnegation like
this one seems greater than any ser
mon. grander than any poem, finer
than any lofty strain of music, more
than any great work of art.
1T IS DIVINITY REVEALING IT

ment of incarnation, the highest ex-
preston known to humans
One thinks of the dying Sidney and
how he pushed the cup of water from
his own parched lips when he said:
| "Give it to him. His need is greater
| than mine"
The STRIPPING Grouse was kin of soul
to Sidney and to all the heroic souls
of history.
And yet
After you have said all this-and
justly-the only concept of the charac-
ter of James Thomas Grouse, midship-
man, IS to be found in the simple act
and the sentiment. 1t IS all thereon
