Prof. william McKeever Of the
Kansas State Agricultural College Is
casting broadcast circulars of which
the following. a foreword to one Of
them, is the general report:
''In our eagerness out here in the
Middle West to herald to the world
the magnitude of our corn and wheat
crops. the superiority of our beef
cattle and thoroughbred swine, and
the tremendous productiveness of
our domestic hen. We are prone to
lose sight of the real issue, namely,
the splendid crops Of strong sons
and fair daughters the country is
producing"
His argument is that corn instead
Of kinderchens receives the most at
tention. In the face of the great ex-
hibitIon of Supt. Babbitt to the Con-
gressmen of Hawaii's system Of
training the young, 1t would hardly
be fair to say that Prof. McKeever
is needed here. And Furthermore
he is wrong. Boys or girls, in Kan
sas or Maine or Arizona or any
! where else in the Union grow up
and are AMERICANS. and the great
est corn crop on record wouldn't
take that birthright away from
'<hem.

DIES IN SEClUS|0N
Woman Of Wealthy Family Lived
Lonely Life for Years.
Deserted by Husband and Son - Re.
suit Of 4 Family Quarrel, She
Finally Hid Herself In Lit.
tic Cottage. " a&

Trenton, N. AFTER secluding her.
self in lonely cottage for Is years.
during which time she preferred her
loneliness to the luxuries of man.
sion in Germany, Mrs. Katherine Zim-
norman, member of a wealthy Ger.
man family, is dead in the Mercer
hospital here.
A broken heart was responsible for
the woman's desire for seclusion. The
first trip she had made from her trim
little cottage in Is years was in the
ambulance which took here to the
hospital. Mrs. Zimmerman, who was
SO years old, was surrounded by
wealth in her childhood, passed near
Berlin, with poor lad named Henry
Zimmerman as playmate of the
little Fraulein van Augur. In time
Zimmerman told of his love, which
was reciprocated. Marriage seemed
impossible, because of his poverty.
He sought the land of liberty to win
wealth. He was but moderately sue
cessful.
Much to his surprise he received a
letter from his .fiancee declaring her
willingness to leave her home, face
separation from her parents and come
to her sweetheart. Zimmerman &C.
cepted the sacrifice and the couple
were married in this country. They
located at Wilkesbarre, Pa. For IS
years the couple lived in peace. One
son was born. He had grown to man.
hood when a family quarrel brought
about separation between husband
and wife,
Mrs. Zimmerman came to this city.
Both her husband and son had d1sap-
peared. She had then passed the
half-century mark and soon came into
possession of a small fortune by the
death of relative.
After continuing her search for
seven years, Mrs. Zimmerman wear
led of the world. She purchased
cottage in the suburbs and began her
life of seclusion. She decided never
to talk to a human being again. She
told her resolution to several friends
here, members of prominent German
families, and they consented to see
that she was supplied with food with
out leaving her home, as she desired.
She arranged to pay the money nee
essary for this.
Day after day during her entire Pc
riod Of isolation, food had been left
on the rear porch of her home in the
morning, at noon and in the evening.
To prevent herself from being seen
or seeing others, those who brought
the supplies would be far away be-
fore the aged woman would touch the
food. The meals, which were always
left in basket, were procured by
Mrs. Zimmerman by lowering from
the upper room of the house, in
which she lived almost entirely, 4
rope with a hook attached, by means
of which she would haul up the re-
ceptacle.
