MISS CARSON FINDS A GENUINE, LIVING DADDY LONG-LEGS"
Story of How a Girl Makes a New Friend of Con- federate Veteran
 at Capital

Mont tgomery, October 21.-tSpecia)
 Miss Frances Carson. who successfully
 played the leading role in Jean Web ster's production, Daddy Long-Legs,"
 at the Grand theatre here last night, has found new Daddy Long-Legs." She found him quite by accident and when she found him she lavished upon ] Him much of the affection she portrays for the Daddy Long-Legs" of Jean | Websters creation. The new-and real-"Daddy Long Legs" is Capt C. F. Duncan, faith l full and efficient watchman at the state capitol. Captain Duncan is a veteran of the civil war, courteous and kindly looking old entleman, with a pleas-
 ant smile for all visitors at the cap-
 itol. and with a most obliging dispo- sition.
 He met Miss Frances Carson at the
 capitol yesterday afternoon and soon
 they were great friends. In showing | Miss Carson over tho capitol building | Captain Duncan in the course of his
 conversation told her he had fought
 under Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston. l And so did my grandfather" re- | piled the charming Miss Carson, "but my grandfather was killed" and for | a moment her beautiful eyes, which are very beautiful indeed. filled with tears.
 Do you know" she said, you are the first veteran I have ever met who
 founght under General Johnston" l Captain Duncan and Miss Carson then became great friends.
 "Do you mind if I call you Grand 1 par" asked Miss Carson after they | had a llx a6 a xUb oh | The gallant old veteran willingly as- | scented and so the two entered into a 1 solemn compact to be friends through
 out the remainder of their lives. But that was not all Miss Carson gave her new grandpa" a ticket to the show and selected a seat for him near the front of the house, where he | might easily see and hear.
 | No one in the large audience was more appreciative of Miss Carson's su- | perb acting than was Grandpa" Dun- can. With tears in his eyes. he watched, as if fascinated, the incomparable Miss Carson play the part of Judy" the | orphan girl. He watched her progress
 through college and through his tears
 smiled and applauded at the happy de- i noument.
 "Grandpa" Duncan had wonderful evening, and when the curtain de- 1 seconded after the final act he depart ed for his home, thinking that he would never again see his new friend. | But he was mistaken. Miss Carson had | not forgotten, and to show that she | remembered and appreciated. she vis- | ited the capitol again today, this time | to say good-by to her new-found grandpa and her real Daddy Long ! Legs"
 1 "Grandpa," she said when she saw
 him at the capitol 1T have come to | tell you good-by." ,s 1 And then the little "Judy" threw her arms around the neck of Grandpa Duncan and kissed him on both cheeks "Good-by, grandpa" she said, you have been very good to me and shall not forget you"
 | And with smile such as brought tears to the eyes of hundreds swhc sat in the theatre last night and thai | brought two big tears to the eyes oi

Social Service Department By MRS. SIDNEY M. ULLMAN

The Safety First Federation of Amer. will take measures to place In the hands of every school child in the United States booklet of rhymes, the creeds are to bt memorized, all boards of education art to be asked to cooperate to the exteni of having teachers read the warning verses. and the stories and have the chil' dren memorize the verses that give tn, good advice.
 For instance, here is verse called tn, Safety First Boy:'
 He knows about the trolley cars
 And how a boy can fall;
 He knows about the fender,
 Which may not work at all.
 He knows about the autos,
 When he is out at play,
 And always takes precautions
 Upon the great highway.
 He knows about the dangers
 That threaten everywhere,
 And how it is important
 That he should have a care.
 He knows if he were injured
 His mothers heart would break, And so his rule is safety first;
 For his dear mothers sake.
 Ever since the beginning of the Safet, First Federation, its officers hav' planned to have danger education cam paign in the schools. For the last sil months" says the New York Times, lex perts under the direction of Darwin P Kingsley have been working out plan which will be submitted to this conven tion."

In the winter he will be told o the dangers of slipping on an icy stree in front of rapidly moving vehicle; il spring. for instance, the dangers of goini in bathing too early; in summer, the dan gers from overheating, and in fall tn danger of starting bonfires with leaves. The following creed of safety will b sent to all schools to be memorized by tn pupils:
 I must not cross a street without frs stopping and looking both ways if tn street is clear for at least half a block then I may go ahead and cross quickly. I must not attempt to cross a street ex cept at a crossing, for there is less dange there than at any other point.
 l must not play in the street, especiall. in one frequently used by automobiles ant other vehicles.
 I must not attempt to flee if am caugh in the middle of the street with vehicle coming from both directions, for if stan, still they wilCbe likely to go around m without harm: if but one vehicle Is ap preaching I should step to the side of tn street until 1t has passed.
 l must not forget to render aid to younger child in crossing the street I must not touch any part of an auto bile or other vehicle
