last Wednesday in class of which
one member was a son of President
Taft. Young Morse is fine. large.
manly fellow, with his fathers alert
mind and New England temperament
and the body of trained athlete.
Next Thursday he will leave New
York for the wilds of Wyoming, where
he is to begin life as a cowboy on
ranch thirty miles square. Young
Morse had the choice of commencing
life in New York. getting into some
Office and working his way up the
ladder. With his fathers many
friends he could have found ready adj
vancement had he chosen to become
a city man. Also the Morse family
in Maine, where he now is, opened to
him career similar to that followed
on the Kennebec by his father in his
younger days. But he made up his
mind that the West held out greater
inducements. He decided that the
way to learn the West was TO begin
at the bottom step, and therefore he
will start q week from Thursday rid
ing broncho and herding cattle. He
consulted Mrs. Morse and a week ago
she went to Atlanta to talk it over
with her husband. Though he was
surprised that his son should choose
such beginning to his career, he
gave his full consent.
