CHAPTER TWO.

There was about John Smith some
indefinable thing which other men did
not have, a tenseness and swift force
that made him seem the white fire Of
life. He famed through his days. He
dominated dinner tables in the eve
nings. The quick turn of his head, the
flash OF his black eyes, the strong, fast
movements Of his hands, the sureness
OF his stride-these We're the unTnlstall-
able, Haunting banners tina caught the
eye and drew attention to the MASTER
full spirit of the man. He was brilliant.
There had been born in him a marvel
lous faculty for stripping from a situa-
ton all eNtraneous and inconsequental
facts so that he might see, and make
others see, h s~tark-naked figure Of
an issue, a truth. The most striking
thing about him a his confidence,
his final conviction that what he pro-
posed to do he would do. He was abso-
lutely alien to doubt. And, while he de-
mendous task, he was alert, sparkling.
His mind was electric. Physically he
was like wires. Tall. thin, broad Of
shoulder and narrow Of thigh, he per-
petually was strung taut. His reserve
energy never was exhausted.
He 4 come to Washington early in
h preceding May to conduct a fight
which made the young laugh and the
old ray Practically unheralded, en-
tirely ~unadvertised, he had taken his
place almost within the shadow Of the
capitol's dome and had made the calm
announcement:
"WlliSky must be thrown out Of the
United States"
Charles Waller-euphoniously known
among his associates as 'C~holliewollie"
printed in his paper a short an
nouncement of Smiths arrival and mis-
sion. VIVA the agitator wants. the
article said, lis action by congress on
the pending resolution to authorize am
amendment to the federal constitution
providing for the absolute abolition Of
the liquor traffic in the United States
and it's possessions. He says he viii be
satisfied with nothing less han that. He
is not here for a compromise. lie wants
to force the big fight
A few days later Waller called on
the agitator'' in his unpretentious Of
flee in a small building three blocks TO
the northwest of the capitol. Choll:e-
wolfe was always on the lookout for
something unusual. He a decided to
take Mr.. John Smith seriously.
What l want he explained. and
What you want for the sake of your
fight, is something hot, something that
Will be printed on the front pages Of
the newspapers. Give me a rood inter-
view, and I'll fix it up in great shape"
Smith ran his right hand across his
black hair-a Characteristic gesture of
his-and studied Walters eyes.
How" ne asked, rising from his
chair with his lightning like rapidly Of
movement, how would you like to hava
something about the attitude of the big
men of the country in regard to the
liquor question:
Pump it OUT" Waller agreed pleas
antly.
He was a stout, fair haired man OF
about 35, and carried . ane lie spoke
in a slow, agreeable drawl, ana his
smile was always ready. He gay til |
impression that he could not possibly
take life seriously, particularly WASH

Vashon High School


The furry OF tests is over for the
first month, and we are now expect
antly waiting FOR the reports.
Football, or rather resemblance
Of it, has taken the school by storm,
and a dozen or two of Vashon huskies
may be seen scampering over our five
acre campus with much abused pig
skin. Last Friday to assure good
turn out they hid a "kidsn day. 1t
reminded one OF all the vaudeville
shows that vashon High has given to
the patient people. Knickerbockers
were in vogue and long trousers were
absent on the annual kids" day.
To liven up interest, the two lower
classes have challenged the upper
classes to football game, with the lat
ter naming all conditions maybe?
A meeting was held by the athletic
association week ago last Friday, for
special proposition presented, that
the boys club should Join with the
girls club, the Toujour Pret, and form
student body, an organization of
which all the students should be mem
bers. 1t was decided to have meet
ing on the coming "Wednesday in the
assembly, to discuss the proposition.
One of the main reasons for this action
was that the combined student body
could concentrate their efforts in a
school play, using the proceeds for
school purposes.
The Toujour Pref gave a spread
down in the lunch room, last Wednes-
day, in honor OF the members of the
club, whose birthdays came in the
neighborhood OF last week.

While the act of signing the muster
roll of the Home Guard does not, strict
" speaking, carry the obligation of
military service, yet it should be re-
garded as an obligation to the extent
Of members being regular in their
attendance at the weekly meeting and
doing their bit to perfect themselves
in the rudiments Of drill work which,
in case their services were needed,
would distinguish them, not as mob,
but as citizen soldiers. And we owe
this act of patriotism to our family
and to the community. The Record is
disposed to look on the bright side, al
ways, but no one can tell what may be-
fall our country any day. German sub
maries have visited our eastern coast
and it is not improbable that this ioc
is even now preparing to strike al
some vital point.

GERALDINE FARRAR TOUR
When an Artist arrives"

There are few things more fascinating
than the career of great and popular
singer. 1t has been so since opera came
into being and will probably remain so
as long as the public holds its love for
beautiful voice. None the less the
life of really great singer is anything
but easy and filled with good times /"
There are the preliminary years of hard
grinding study, too often accompanied
by actual privation, and then after the
singer has arrived the work never
ceases.
The case of Geraldine Farrsr, who is
making her first appearance in Burling-
ton on Oct. p, is the most striking H.
lustration the world now has, for Miss
Farrar is not only an artist Of most ex-
traordinsry gifts, but is blessed with
beauty and charm of personality which
would make her a notable figure any
where, even without her music Wher-
ever she goes she is sought after by all
kinds and conditions Of men and women.
There are very few people Of the
great world" worth knowing who do
not seek her Artists, statesmen, scien-
fists. as well as fashionables, are her
friends The empress and crown princess
Of Germany send intimate little notes
10 this young New England girl, who
charms them not less with her voice
than with her wit and her really hard
common sense. Wherever she goes she
.an hold a levee and have the biggest
men and the most important women Gag
srly seek invitations. Her acquaintance |
tself with these people has been for her |
nothing less than a liberal education
But the other side Of the story tells /
low little she can avail herself Of all 4
