contains an excellent miniature OF
Charles l., encircled with diamonds,
and was given by that monarch to
Sir Edmund Verney, his marshal and
standard bearer, who fell at Edge Hill

FOREIGNERS AT WEST POINT
Taken Course at Our Great
Military Academy.

The recent graduation from West
Point of Cadet Jose Martin Calvo, son
of the Costa Rican minister to the
United States, brings to mind the fact
that a number of Latin-Americans
have enjoyed the hospitality of this
institution and as the guests of the
nation availed themselves of the priv
ilege of pursuing the same course of
instruction which is demanded from
the applicant for a commission in the
American army
AS far back as 1916 the records
show that young men from South
America were admitted as cadets.
Louis Blanco and Mateo Blanco were
on the rolls that year, while in 1923
we find the name of Julian A. D. Paez,
surely some relative of the famous
cowboy general of Venezuela who cap
tured feet with troop of cavalry.
No other Latin-Americans were en-
tered at the academy until 1884,
when we find the name Of Antonio
Barrics of Guatemala.
In 1889 there was one cadet from
Nicaragua; in 1893 one from Salvador
and one from Venezuela; in 1897 one
from from Salvador; in 1899 one from
Costa Rica and one from Venezuela;
in 1902 one from Costa Rica; in 1905
one from Ecuador, and in 1907 one
from Nicaragua and one from Vene-
zuela.
OF these three received diplomas
showing that they had pursued the
same studies and submitted to the
same discipline as other members of
the academy. They are Antonio Bar
rios of Guatemala and Arturo Roberto
Calvo and Jose Martin Calvo of Costa
RIGA. Four received certificates of
study during four years.
The others dwelt but a short time
in the institution Cadet Jose
Calvo, who was recently graduated,
had a noteworthy career at West
Point. He stood Is in a class Of 50,
was champion gymnast, winning the
right to wear the "A" qualified as
expert rifleman, and is the first for
eigner to have worn chevrons, hold
ing the rank of sergeant in the corps,
signal proof of the appreciation of his
superior.

A Life Of JOY,

Like our Master we should always
be giving out cheer. He who makes
It harder for a brother to live nobly
and do his work well has sinned
against one of Christ's little ones
We dare not go about among our fell
lows saying discouraging things, dis
piriting things, for II we do we are i'm
periling those whose burdens are al
ready as heavy as they can bear. One
disheartening word may cause them
to sink down and perish. The law of
love bids us bear one another's bur-
dens," and there is no other way in
which we can do this SO effectively as
by living life Of Joy.

brushes may be removed and re-

by which surfaces can be finished
without the necessity of STOPPING

The new trowel smoothes the sur

moves it back and forth, the edges
are automatically raised to prevent
Its digging into the mortar.

Cream Cheese and Olive Sandwiches.
Cream or Neufchatel cheese beaten
until creamy with the addition OF a
little more cream, then mixed with
finely minced ripe or green olives,
makes a delicious sandwich filling.
So also does cream cheese mixed with
finely minced green peppers or sweet
red peppers that have been canned.

They Shall No More Co Out"

They shall no more go out" o We
who speak earth's farewell through your
tears,
Who see your cherished ones go forth.
And come not back through weary years:
There Is a place-there Is {. shore,
From which they shall go out no more.
They shall no more go out We
Whose friends have journeyed farther
yet
Whose loved will not return again
For all your pleading and regret:
They wait you at the sheltered door
Frem which they shall go out no more.
No chariot wheel rolls from those gates,
No bridled steed impatient stands.
No stately caravans move forth,
To cross through silent desert lands,
No swelling sail. no dropping oar
Rejoice! They shall go out no more.
