Younger secm like n great army from

themselves and yet even with these
We can only with difficulty tell the
year of their graduation,
"Miilet preceded me in Harvard by
two years ] remember him well. He
had served. although mere boy at
the time. In the Civil war and was in
this way. as in others, a marked man
at college, In his Kind fashion he
insisted in later days that he remem-
bered me at Harvard, but I have al
ways suspected that the kindness OF
heart was stronger than the memory,
for the gulf which divided the fresh
man from the junior was both deep
and wide
TN due time we went forth into the
world and took our several ways The
currents of life carried us off in dit
ferent directions. Then suddenly l
heard OF him at the time Of the Rus
sian Turkish war in 1877, when his
brilliant and adventurous work az a
correspondent made him known to
the world. Then l heard of him as
an artist. and at last, in 1888, | saw
him once more at the Chicago ex-
position. and there began that great
public work for the advancement of
art and of art education among the
people of the United States to which
his last twenty years were SO largely

DOG ATTACHED

Before the motor truck arrived near

chummy with the horses or with some
particular horse or team The dog
followed them all day, slept with them
and lived with them. That a dog
might strike UP the same sort of friend
ship with a motor truck WAS something
that has never occurred even TO the
animal psychologists
But in Los Angeles the driver Of a
Peerless truck owned by the Meier
Brewing company has a little dog
named Fritz. who thinks as much of
the truck as he could Of any horse.
When the big truck comes out OF the
garage in the morning he jumps on

and sits or lies there all day, while
the truck travels scores of miles over
Los Angeles, streets and the roadways
