THOMAS DAY

The first Englishnan to attempt to introduce a, new philosophy of educa- ton was Thomas Day, now chiefly re-
 nembered as the author of Sand ford and Merton,'' who died 126 years ago today, Sept. 28. 1789. Dayss >ed- ucational ideal combined the hardi- hood of the Spartan and the stoicism of the Indian, and he sought to put his scheme into practice by adopting two orphan girls, one of whom he proposed to make his wife, when properly educated. One of them, Lu- cretia, soon febelIed and married a draperd, but Eabrina was kept under Days care for several years. In or der to harden her and enable her to attain the Spartan ideal of self-on- trol, Day dropped molten sealing wax on poor Sabrina's arms and fired pis- tols near her ears. Sabrina always screamed, much to Days discomfit- ure. When he told her presented se- crets, she always sdivulged9 them to others, and she was in a\ constant state of rebellion against wearing the plain and simple Clothing provided for her At length Day gave up his plan in disgust. and permitted Sabrina' to wed the man of her choice.

Washington. Sept. 2S--veterans of the Grand Army of the Republic in their 18th annual reunion a1woxe here today to see wig-wagged from the dome of the capitol a message of peace.
 Men who were boys 50 years ago re- turning again to celebrate the close of a great civil war, had clambered dur ing. the night the winding stairs in the statue of justice that crowns the cap- itol and had flashed to the world a message of hope and peace. This was the ushering in of the second day of the Grand Army assemblage which will reach it's height on Wednesday with the re-marching of the men who returned from Apponattox in 1865 to receive the plaudits of the nation Sur vivors who made the climb at the eap- itol were members, of the Veterans Signal < Corps, and old comrades on Georgetown Heights flashed back an answer.
 The veterans had before them day of sightseeing, tours of the defenses of Washington ard expeditions to his toric spots, the day to be brought to 8 close with an address of welcome from President Wilson in the reunion head quarters at Camp Matthew G. Emery.

l Sir Thomas Shaughnessy

Sir Thomas George Shau ghnessy, resident of the Canadian Pacific railway, whose remarkable executive ability and the tremendous resources of the great. transportation system Of which he is the head have been used to facilitate the accumulation and shipment of supplies to the Allied armies, will pass his 62nd nilestone tomorrow. Like his predecessor as Canadian Pacific chieftain; the late Sir William c. Van Horne, Sir Thorn as is a native of Uncle Sam's country. He was born Oct. 6, 1858, in Milwau- kee, a city which is now a center of the o-German 1n novenent in Ameri- ca. He is aboutNten years the junior of Sir William Van Horne. who was born in the neigh boring state of Illin- ois, and succeeded him as head of the Canadian Pacific in 1896. Sir Thom- as began his railway career as a clerk in the purchasing department of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul. That was in 1869, when he was only 16, and 10 years later he had risen to the post: of general storekeeper of the Canadian Pacific. By successive steps he rose quickly to assistant general manager, and afterward vice-presi- nd then president of the great trans continental system. Sir Thomas wis ited- London a few months ago. at the invitation of the War Department, to discL1s plans for the purchase of the army's needs in Canada. As a re- suit of this conference, Sir Thomas and his great organization became practically an auxiliary of the Brit ish war department, acting as inter-
 nediary in the gathering of supplies. The purchasing department and man ufacturing equipment of the road have since performed highly useful services. The steamship of the Can adfan Pacific have been used to carry troops and stores, and Sir Thomas engaged additional tonnge to handle the crops.
