The Gift OF J.. Pierpont Morgan.

In New York City stands magniac-
entity appointed hospital, on beautiful
site. 1t was Morgan S gift. His wealth
built and endowed it, and tine splendid
thing about that hospital is that it was
dedicated to motherhood.
This man, the father of four children,
the grandfather of eleven, turned from
his gigantic dreams of an industrial and
financial empire, to build an institution
for those who go down into the valley
of death that they may give a new life
to the world. The career of Morgan
finds here its touch of poetry-his rev.
erence for the hottest of human facts.
1t is in keeping with his character that
this reverence expressed itself in a
form so practical.
Thousands of little babes have been
better born, with better care, and
hence a better chance in a world of
struggle because of Morgan's gift.
Shall We not remember this when we
pass the final verdict on his life?
And there are countless other deeds
of practical kindness to his credit. 1t
is tribute to his greatness that he
sought no advertisement for these &C.
tivities. There are no institutions call
ed by his name. There are no ''founda-
tons" to perpetuate his memory; but
there was no real philanthropy that
asked his aid in vain.
Let us recount one little incident of
which we know. A committee called
upon him one day to ask his help for
the babies milk fund in New York. 1t
asked him for a thousand dollars. With
out word he made it ten thousand,
and as the committee rose to leave his
Office, he said:
Nov, not a line of publicity abou
this, or you will never get any more.
1t was spoken with the gruff COM
mand of an autocrat, but it marked the
measure of the man. He did not pose.
He liked to do good: he liked to nelp,
but he wanted no praise.

Only Perfect Gem.

The pearl is the only gem not need
ing the hand Of man to bring 1t to
perfection, says the Gentlewoman.
History affords ample evidence of the
intense fascination. 1t has always ex-
ercised among the people of every age.
1t is the oldest object Of personal
adornment. The records of the Ro-
mans, Babylonians, Persians and Egyp-
tains make mention of it.
Coming to more recent epochs, We
find that Philip H., King of Spain, paid
100000 for single pearl known as
"Peregrina." Found In Panama, it
was pear shaped and weighed 1874
carats. Another king of Spain, Philip
w., purchased one weighing 126 car
ats. 1t was brought from India.
France owns some exquisite exam
pies, but the biggest pearl known is
that which was once the property of
the banker, Henry Philip Hope.
Cylindrical in form. 1t is two inches
long, four and a half inches in cfrcum-
ference at one end and three and a
half inches at the other. 1t weighs
1900 grains and is valued at 50, 000, 900.

From The Office Of Public Roads, United
States Department OF Agriculture,
Washington, D. c.

A gold medal to the school boy or
girl between the ages of 10 and Is who
writes the best composition, not to ex-
coed 300 words, on the repair and main
tenance of earth roads, is to be award
ed by Logan Waller Page, Director,
of of Public Roads, United States
=. Department of Agriculture, Washing
ton, d. c. All compositions must be
submitted to Mr.. Page before May Is,
1913, and the medal will be awarded as
soon thereafter as the compositions can
be graded. The compositions may be
based on knowledge gained from books
or other sources, but no quotations
should be made.
After many years experience in deal
ing with the public road situation of the
country, it is Mr.. Pages belief that
ignorance on the subject of repair and
maintenance of roads is as much the
cause of their bad condition as any
other one factor. 1t is expected that
the competition will bring about bet
ter understanding of the subject of re-
pair and maintenance in the rural dis
tricts.
Many children living in the rural dis
tricts have experienced the dissdvan-
tages of roads made impossible through
lack of proper maintenance and it is
expected that their interest in the
competition will stimulate greater in
terest among the parents. Bad roads
have prevented many children from OBJ
tanning proper education and have
even prevented doctors from reaching
the side of rural patients IN time to
save their lives.
Any child between the ages mention
ed, attending a country school, NAV
compete. Only one side of the paper
must be written on; each page should
be numbered; the name, age and ad-
dress of the writer, and the name and
location of the school which he or she
IS attending must be plainly written at
the top of the first page. The an
nouncement of the competition has
been sent to the superintendent of
schools in the rural districts. No fur
Their information can be obtained from
the Office of Public Roads. This an
nouncement should be plain to everyone
and all children will thus start on a
basis of equality.
