EACH AGE HAS ADVANTAGE
Hard to Tell Which, From Childhood
to the End, May Be Called
the Best"

Which is the best age? Are we to
believe the professor who tells us that
mans best work Is done before he Is
forty, or Robert Browning, who eXalts
old age and cries, "Grown old along
with me-the best Is yet to be-"
Childhood, remarks writer in Lon
don Answers, has II magic and mys-
terry which can never be regained. Out
of its imagination child shapes its
own world and creates Its own de-
lights in life
Youth is the time when we find our
greatest physical expression. our
ideals take form and we are neither
fettered by failures nor spOilt by sue
cess Normal youth believes 1t can
conquer all obstacles and achieve all
ends.
Maturity knows better. The man OF
forty is balanced by experience, and
while his mental faculties should have
reached their hi hest point of develop
ment, physically he is not back num-
Der.
And what of Brownngs old age? Is
the best yet To be? Perhaps. The man
who has been failure is near the rGd
of his earthly troubles, and the man
who has succeeded awaits with ser q
of fulfillment, the next great adyeA-
ture.

PERSHING REVIEWS
AMERICAN FIORCE

London, July 1S.- General Per-
shing began the day by reviewing, in
company with the Prince of Wales
and Field Marshal Haig, the American
units that are to take part in tomor-
rows parade. The review took place
at Hyde Park, where the general con-
ferred the distinguished service medal
upon eighty British officers.
Interested spectators of the func-
ton were General Pershing's son,
Warren, and two small daughters OF
Field Marshal Haig.
AS the Prince of Wales was chatting
with some Of the officers present, a
woman in black came out of the crowd
and approached him. There appeared
to be some apprehension among those
about him as to her object in ap-
preaching, but he met her with smile
and extended his hand. She said she
was the widow of an officer. and
pledged her allegiance. The Prince of
Wales thanked her while the crowd
cheered in the widest, enthusiasm.

Secretary Daniels Wishes Of
ficerS and Members of the
Crews God Speed and a
Safe and Pleasant Voyage,

Washington, July lS.-Officers and
organized Pacific fleet were wished
God speed and a safe pleasant voyage
by Secretary Daniels in a message
sent to Admiral Hugh Rodman, fleet
commander, on the eve of the depar-
ture of the armada from Hampton
Roads for the west coast. The secre-
tary, in his message, drew a vivid
comparison between the mighty force
that will steam out from between the
Virginia capes tomorrow morning and
the fleet which the United States sent
around the world eleven years ago.
Attention was called by the secre-
tary to the fact that the force sent on
the history making voyage around the
world the mightiest fleet the United
States had ever gathered together pre-
vious to that time was almost insig-
nificant in comparison with the new
Pacific force. He commented on the
fact that the new west coast fleet
will have a tonnage more than
as great as that of the ships assem-
bled in 1907 under command Of Ad-
miral Kobley D. Evans, and said while
the most pOWefIul VesSel IN lne llee'
that went around the world mounted
four 12-inch guns, with a maximum
effective range of 10000 yards, the
New Mexico, Admiral Rodman's flag
ship, and several other vessels of the
Pacific fleet, had batteries of twelve
14-inch guns capable of penetrating
armor at 10000 yards
Mr.. Daniels. in commenting on the
advances in naval science achieved
since the fleet went around the world
pointed out that while the 1907 force
was greatly restricted in its cruising
radius by reason of using coal for fuel,
Admiral Rodman's vessels for the
most port, were oil-burning vessels
while the New Mexico is electrically
propelled, an innovation almost I'M
