SANITATION LESSONS.

The work that the United States
has succeeded in doing in the Panama
canal zone has given a lesson to the
world that may be OF far-reaching in
fiuence. An officer of the Isthmian
canal commission. Col. William Cor
gas, addressing q meeting in Phila-
delphia recently. answered the Ques-
tion az to why we had succeeded in
the canal zone where the French had
failed by saying that 1t was because
the French died SO fast they could not
make any progress with their work.
With an average working force OF To-
600 employees the French lost no less
than $4,000 men during their period
of construction. During our period
of construction, with an average force
of $4,000 men working. we have lost
but 1000. Yellow fever, which was
the scourge OF the French workmen
and which cost them over 1000 men,
has cost the Americans during the
same period of time only IS men. The
death rate on the zone last year from
diseases was 2.S2 per thousand among
the workmen.

GEORGE LANE CORELY.
Honey Grove, Tex.
The above touching letter was re.
ceived by Mr.. Taft at the White House
only few weeks before he was sched.
uled to leave Office. Needless to say
the lad had his wish, for he received
not only letter written by the presi-
dents own hand, but an autographed
photo. The boys letter will be kept
among the Taft mementos.
There is one thing In the childish
mlssiye that should be taken to heart
by every boy In the land. Although
but seven, he knows the names OF ali
our presidents ana the years of their
inauguration. Probably he also knows
other things about them.
There could be no more helpful or In
spring study TO any boy than that of
the lives OF our presidents.
In nearly every case these presidents
were themselves poor boys who won
their way TO our highest Office by sheer
merit ability, honor. service to their
country.
They were ali good men. After the
clouds Of partisan passion have clear.
Cd away we can see this. No country
n history ever had line Of executives
high and unblemished.
Moreover, some of them were very

Ii too much difference OF opinion and
partisan heat for them now to b
given their true rank. But history viii
assign them their places.
OF all the twenty-six who have held
this lofty post one thing can be said
that should give rs infinite pride:
There has never been q stain on theil
personal honor.
Their home lives have been clean.
They have been free from scandal.
If you would learn patriotism, If 70,
would discover the road to success
