AS SHAKESPEARE says in Macbeth:
"A "A soldier, and afeared7" Not much IN
the case of this valiant knight, without other
decorations than those conferred upon him
by the Governors of two States-Colonel by
appointment OF two Of the Governors of New
Jersey, but Honorary Colonel also by ap-
polntment Of two Of the Governors of South
Carolina. OF course, Colonels are as plenty in
New Jersey as blackberries In Virginia In the
month of June; but so far as the record
shows Harvey is the first and only Honorary
Colonel bearing a commission from South
Carolina. Governor Duncan Clinch Hey
ward, a descendant of one Of the signers at
Philadelphia, found him about 10 years ago
and Immediately attached him to his staff
and after four years under Hayward Harvey
was again honored with the same title by
Governor Ansel, the son Of a German immi'
grant (another and convincing reason urged
by those who would see Harvey In Berlin),
and for four years Harvey again rendered
his adopting state distinguished service
When Coley Bleaae succeeded Ansel Har-
veys commission died. but II Is hoped that
he will be recommlssioned by Richard Man
ming, the gentleman who is to come into
office next January. ut would be nuts for
a man like that to die for his country or
for any other country II need be.
TT is fact not generally known, but worth
i recording, that Harvey has a Coloners
uniform. He bought it-paid $3.50 for 1t
when he was commissioned by Governor Hey
ward. expecting to wear 1t at demonstra-
tion in Washington or New York; but the
Governor failed to appear and 1t was no part
of a well-trained Colonel nor was 1t re-
quired In the regulations to do the whole
thing himself; and, 30 far as present informa-
and then in the family circle at Deal, N. j.;
but preserved with moth balls or other foes
that corrupt, 1t Is supposed to be "as good

1t is not his uniforms or his bank deposits
or his guessing gifts, however, that would
tinguished post Of German Ambassador, but
his fitness for the office, his knowledge of men,
his superior mental furniture, his large eN-
perience in big politics, not In holding office,

of the world and the ways Of the world; in
fine, his gifts of diplomacy which have been
illustrated on more than one occasion in a

THANKSGIVING AT the GIRLS HOME
belfast Cor. Bangor Daily News

belfast Cor Bangor Daily News
One of the happiest dinner parties serv-
ed in this CITY on Thanksgiving day was
that at the Girls Home. Big turkeys
and many vegetables furnished by Mr..
and Mrs. Ira M Cobe were cooked to
the queens taste by Mrs. MacNeill. the
kind-hearted matron, while dainties of
all kinds sent by the Madessis club of
Brunswick and the Congregational Sun
day school of Pennington, candies, jel-
lies, nuts, figs, fruits of all kinds, cakes.
and everything Sny little girl could wish
for, were included in the menu. Then,
after feasting to their hearts content,
the girls were given auto rides through
the kindness of Orlando E. Frost, who
took them in relays to Searsport and all
about the city, much to their delight, for
it is not often that they get an automo-
bile ride on the snow. A few of the older
girls were not at home while this good
time was going on and when they did ar
rive they were so disappointed that
Father" MacNeill harnesed up the old
horse and took them sleigh riding. The
girls have recently organized club
which is known as the Golden Rule Clubs
f or they are taking the golden rule
their watchword. to do all the good that
they can to others. Mr.. MacNeill is the
president, for "father's must OF course
have the most honored position in their
power to bestow. The meetings are
held each Saturday night, and to hear
them discuss the session one would think
they had spoken before congress. They
I balloted at the last meeting on IN other
MacNeill and she was accepted as
member. She has not been initiated as
yet, owing to the fact that there are
three babies at the Home who need al!
her spare time and so she will have to
defer the pleasure of becoming MEM
Der for little while. The girls are very
much interested in the coming high
school debate and will attend it next Fri
day night to get points so that they
may have one in their club. '"This was
the happiest Thanksgiving ever held at
the Home" said Mrs. MacNeill to the
reporter, and her smiling face just radiat-
ed her love and the joy she finds in work
ing among the homeless little ones under
her charge. There are 26 now, the young
est only % months old.
