every patron was present and showed
great interest in this, their first meet
ing. A short program consisting of
selections by the pupils, talks by the
county superintendent and supelvis-
ing teacher and discussion by the
parents was followed by a dainty
lunch. One of the results of this gath
ering was wakened interest in war
work in which pupils and parents ex-

The following incident took place
during recent visit to one of the pri-
mary grades in Iron county: The
pupils of the little reading class were
endeavoring to discover all the words
belonging to the 'eat" family. Heat,
meat and neat had been suggested
when one bright eyed y0ungster
proudly announced the longer word
bleat. TO test his understanding of
this word the teacher asked him to
place it in sentence. After "a mo-

ed thus-"The boy, he has the nose

FREDERICK THE GREAT

President Roosevelt Who

(By George Martin)
United Pre- ssaff Correspondent

Washington, Oct. 23.-Gazing super
eiliously out across the landscape from
his porch on block CT granite, the kai-
ser s forefather, Frederick the Great
stands guard in bronze today over the
entrance to the United States war col
lege.
He seems content with his post, quite
cocky withal, despite the fact that in
side the great stone building, American
army officers are plotting his descend
ant Is downfall. When they pass the old
man, some of them scowl, some laugh.
One newly made captain, first amaz-
ed, then amused at Frederick, remark
ed:
"Why, there's the slob that started
all this Prussianism we are fighting.
Where the--did he come from3"
The fact is, Teodore Roosevelt, arch
apostle of anti-Prussianism today, put
him there thirteen years ago at Kaiser
Bill's personal request. And, among the
kind words President Roosevelt lavished
upon the kaiser and his ancestor after
wining and dining with Wilhelm s per-
sonal envoys at the White House, No
vember 10, 1904, were these:
''We receive this gift at the hands
of the present emperor himself, a man
who has markedly added to the luster
of his great house and his great nation,
who has made it evieent that they de-
sire peace and friendship with the other
nations of the earth. accept it with
deep appreciation of the friendly regard
it typifies for the people of this re-

CHAPTER XXXYIII.


The first two weeks Bob came down
every night. He had persuaded both
John Kendall and Henry Creedmore to
come down over the week ends and
they had made arrangements at the club
for the entire summer. Bob told me
nothing Of their plans until it was
too late to change them. Had he, 1
should have insisted that he say nothing
to them.
Elsie and Tom Barton had taken a
cottage near the club for the summer,
so the four men could play golf and
tennis together. Pleased as L was to
have. Elsie and her darling children
where could see them every day, 1
would willingly have dispensed with
her society rather than have things
made so uncomfortable for me an ac-
count of the constant discussions L had
with Bob anent his duty to me-and
now the baby.
The third week we spent in the coun-
try Bob telephoned one day that he
would not be down. l was out with
the baby when he called and mother
took the message. When l heard Of it
l rushed to the telephone and called
his office. He had been gone half an
hour the office boy told me. "Had left
for the afternoon" he said in response
to my inquiries.
I next tried his club, and as last
resort John Kendall IS studio. His man
answered the telephone.
"No, Mr.. Garrett is not here" he
told me, and when asked Tor Mr.. Ken
dali said: "He's not here either"

all patience with me.
