David Glasgow Farragut.
BY ROBE ERTVS LOVE.

~E% HE most famous naval officer in
American history was David
Glasgow Farragut, who died III
1870 Admiral Farragut GER
talnly had abundant opportunity TO
make himself famous. He served in
three great warS-that of 1912, the
struggle with Mexico and the rebellion.
Admiral Farraguts chief service,
however, and that which won for him
the distinction which places him at the
head of the list of our naval command
ers, was given during the civil war. 1t
is fact somewhat remarkable that Il
man past sixty years of age should dis
play such bravery and such ability rs
were shown by Farragut.
Farragut, it may be said, grew up
in the navy. He was adopted into the
family of the Commodore Porter of
his boyhood and was bred to the sea.
Though but eleven years of age when
the war of 1872 began, he served
through that conflict, up to the begin
ming Of 1915, as midshipman. From
that time forth he remained in naval
service and when the civil war opened
he was already a veteran of almost
fifty years experience. Though born
in Tennessee and living In Virginia
at the outbreak of the war, Farragut
adhered to the Union cause. went
north and was assigned to duty in
command of the western blockadin-
squadron in the gulf of Mexico. The
story of his gunboatS passing the bat
terics at New Orleans, Port Hudson
and Nicksburg under heavy fire. re
sulting in the capture of New Orleans
and opening the Mississippi up %
NickSburg. greatly aiding Gen"r.I
Grant in the tedious but triumphant
campaign against the latter strong
hold, is unique in naval history
But Farragut's most sensational and
thrilling exploit was achieved at the
entrance to Mobile bay, where he was
in immediate personal command, his
vessels plunging through Il field of the
enemy's torpedoes, silencing the terri
Bile batteries and capturing Confeder-
ate boats in what was practically
hand to hand fight. SchooIbOys of
many years to come will be thrilled by
the story of the brave Old admiral

Farragut received from congress the
highest honors possible. the ranks OF

Ralph Waldo Emerson.
By RODERTUS LOVE.

Though he lived in America
during the nineteenth century
for nearly eighty years. he was
not materially influenced by the sur
roundugS and the events of his time
and country He dwelt in his own
world of mental contemplation. From
time to time during his long life he
gave To the world the fruits of those
contemplations in lectures, essays and
poems. But SO far aS cNtcrnalS 20 any
of his essays or poems might have
been written in any other age or in
any other country He was not mere
ly Americana: he was universal.
Perhaps no writer ever lived the
sum of whose literary work is SO de
void of vulgarity All of the Emer-
sonian output is simply thought re-
fined to the uttcrmost. There is no
humor save in the way of sarcasm,
and the sarcasm is lofty and benevo-
lent.
Emerson was supreme idealist He
never climbed toward ideals nor crop
ed in the dark after ideals for he was
the exponent of ideals already attain
ed. The great commercial world rag
ed around him. but he held aloof. con
tent to live simply and frugally. rich
in his own wisdom.
The great lesson of EmersOn's life
and teachings lies in his conception of
the inherent nobility of the human
soul He repudiated utterly and with
calm sCorn the age worn conception of
man as sinful and filthy maggot
crawling about the earth asking aims
of Il superior divinity. The godlincSs
residing in humanity. the inherent pos
sihlitics of the human the inevitable
evolution of the soul of man from low
er to higher. the divine dignity of life
upon earth these things Emerson be-
lieved and felt and taught for more
than fifty years
