Will THIS WAR MAKE
THE NEXT PRESIDENT?
People Of U. S. Love Successful Soldier and the
Present Conflict May Put Some Military
Chieftain In White House.

Jcnn j, PerSnlng seems to be
man of destiny. The envious call it
luck, but destiny sometimes takes
the guise of luck. Even admitting
for the sake of argument that po-
litical favor may have figured to
some extent in his elevation over $50
brother officers. no one can deny that
he proved himself big enough and
steady enough to maintain his foot
ing on his new height without get
ting dizzy.
Pershing is an ambitious man.
His ambition has always run in mil
itary channels. He has never mani
tested any latent political ambitions,
such as were displayed by Roosevelt's
other find" General Wood, not so
many months ago, but Pershing has
shown his ambitions in his chosen
field time and time again.
He showed them when he was
fighting the Moros down on Jolo; he
showed them long before that when
he was campaigning against the In
dians, and later against the Span
iards. His life history shows that
he has always been seizing opportun-
tiles as fast as they came along. or
making opportunities to seize IL they
lid not develop fast enough of their
Dwn accord to suit him.
s.anaaA ha e.anwom 81 he wnnva -
destiny.
He may never return from France,
for, after the manner OF all fighting
men, it is his custom to be where the
fighting is. But IL he does return
with the success behind him that
marks his whole career there are no
heights to which he may not aspire.
It was destiny that gave him com
mand Of the punitive expedition into
Mexico; 1t was destiny that SO far
from bringing criticism upon him for
failure of that expedition made him
the best known soldier in America.
And now destiny puts him iii COM
mand OF the first forces in the great
est war in which America, or any
other country, has ever engaged-it
makes him custodian of the very
heart Of his native land, this dashing
debonair product of old Missouri
Then where? Then what? Who
knows?
Pershing at 81 years OF age Is aS
agile as any man-not as most meu
but as any man at So. He Is q
saddle-hardened man; a campaign
burned, field-dried fellow, with 4
great capacity for endurance.
Educated, polished. linguist to {
certain extent, lover of good socie
ty, he is the best ideal of the Ameri
can army officer because first before
those things he Is a fighting man
He used to a beautiful dancer. ant
he still is a beautiful fighter.
He comes Of good American stock
He is a real American In every way
You cannot pay any man q mucl
higher compliment.
. II, when the smoke of conflict die
away, and John ]. Pershing return

there are other honors in store 70
him, he probably will be found wor
thy of them as he has been worth

Aim to secure bearing branches

II the tree is shaded by too much
growth at the top, the inner and lower
twigs will weaken and die instead Of
bearing fruit.
Cut back the strong, upward-grOw-
ing central limbs to outward-growing
side branches. This induces the tree
to spread laterally instead Of growing
too high. It admits light through the
center to fruiting branches below. II
limbs cross each other or crowd badly.

sunlight to all parts of the tree.
In pruning cut limbs close, SO as to

over the wound.
