He Was Not to Be Agltated, Even by
"Percy, Dear"

It was moving day for the summer
colony along the North shore OF Mas
sachusetts. On the morning train
from Rockport, bearing many we'll
known Bostonians to their town
houses for the winter, rode a stormy
old gentleman from the west. AT
Pride's crossing a family of three
father, mother and daughter-boarded
the train, bearing respectively the
family treasures: One pet poodle, one
gray cat in a blue blanket, and one
travelling clock in much worn leath-
er case. The party had no sooner
found seats across from the western
er, than it became apparent that the
excitement of boarding the train had
caused a commotion among the pets.
The cat was chided for talking aloud.
Calm yourself, Bobby" said his mis-
tress. BE yourself once more-we
are now on our way home" Where
upon Bobby grew calm.
The poodle became restless in the
company OF his master on a seat in
front and signified his yearning for
Bobby's company by climbing up the
back of the seat and casting goo-goo
eyes at the Tabby. The sympathetic
mistress understood at once and said:
"You may come over here and sit
with us. Percy, dear, on one condition
you must not agitate Bobby"
This was too much for the stormy
westerner. With a loud snort he
reared up, paved his handbag from

one OF the two or three greatest men of

greatest men in the worlds history. This

lead his people through the burning
flames OF struggle from which the ma
tion emerged, purified as by fire, born
anew to loftier life. After long years
OF iron effort. and of failure that came
more often than victory. he at last rose
to the leadership of the republic at the
moment when that leadership had become
the stupendous world-task OF the time.
He grew TO know greatness but never

Power was his. but not pleasure. The
burrows deepened on his brow, but his
eyes were undimmed by either hate or
fear. His gaunt shoulders were bowed.
but his steel thews never faltered as he
bore for a burden the destinies of his
people. His great and tender heart
shrank from giving pain: and the task
allotted him was TO pour out like water
the life-blood Of the young men, and TO
feel In his every fiber the sorrow of the
women. Disaster saddened but never dis
mayed him. AS the red years OF war
went by they found him ever doing his
