New York, Jan. America as land of opportunity even for street waifs, orphans and foundlings was recalled by the recent death in Sitka, Alaska, of John G. Brady, former governor of that territory, and the fact that when a child young Brady had been taken from an almshouse and placed in the custody of the Children's Aid Society of New York which educated him and placed him on the road to fame and fortune.
 Hundreds of other cases similar to ex-Governor Brady's it is said, could be cited by the organization which for more than half a century has been taking homeless boys and girls off city streets and sending them to farms in the West where they grew up to be self-reliant, trustworthy and honored citizens A certain delicacy surrounds the publication of the names of the more noted of these former waifs but, the report of the Children's Aid Society for 1918 shows the following harvest of "careers" up to date:
 One governor of state, one gover- nor of a territory (John G. Brady of Alaska) two members of Congress, two district attorneys, two sheriffs two mayors, a justice of the supreme court, federal judge, four state judges, two college professors, seven high school principals, two schoo superintendents, an auditor genera of state, nine members of state leg, islatures, 24 clergymen, one cashier | of a life insurance company, two artists g. senate clerk, six railroad officials. 1s journalists 54 bankers 1S physicians, 55 lawyers, IF post | masters, three contractors. 97 teach erH, four civil engineers, and vas
 number of other business and pro l fessional men, clerks, mechanics 1 farmers and their wives and other

,e. but ere he u | repress

He rose, but ere he vl 1 repress The Affection of his noble breast He thought that of all his friends 50
 dear
 None in the house of death were
 near. He leant him on the young soldiers
 bed
 And pressed three kisses on his
 head; They were as from his Father
 given
 And his face beamed with the
 radiancy of heaven. His hour was nigh; he bid farewell And asked if he had nought to
 tell, To father, mother, brother dear, To cheer them while they yet lin-
 gered here. Tell them I die a Soldier of the
 cross,
 For which I counted all things else
 but dross; Tell them I die in Jesus love And to meet me round the Throne aboye.' So died the Soldier; ere an hour haG passed The Victor's Crown on his brow was pressed, And, mingling with the ransomet 1 throng, 1 He swels the chorus of eterna song. So died he like a morning flower Called to be planted In his nativ
 bower; He lived in life so when his last hou came His faith unshaken, and Jesus t
 him the same. ] J. E. D.

WARR-WOOD BATTLE

On this date in 178S William Warr defeated Will Wood In a long battle near London. Like most of the great fighters of the period, Warr hailed from Bristol, where he gave a good account of himself before he was matched for the championship with Tom Johnson in 17S7. He was de- feated by the champion, but recov- cred his laurels by whipping Will Wood. Warr then tried to get a match with Dan Mendoza, who hao claimed the title after Johnson's re- tirement. While waiting for Mendoza to consent, Warr got into a fight with a blacksmith, and landed a blow on the smiths jaw that ended forever the career of the latter. Warr serv- ed three months fin prison for that, and upon his release renewed his challenge to Mendoza, The Hebrew fighter refused to meet the Bristol brutser until the latter slapped his face. Then Mendoza consented to the match, and twice defeated Warr in battles for the title. That ended Warr's fighting career.

ANNIVERSARY

The first white man to set foot on the site of Rio de Janeiro. the Bra lillian capital, was Juan Diaz de solls, a spaniard, who discovered the new nort on Jan. 1, 151S. He named the pert Rio de Janeiro in honor of the
 day. Pedro Alvarez Gabral, Por-
 tuguese navigator, was the diseoY- eryor of Brazil, having landed near
 the present city of Bahia 1S years
 before Soils discovered Rio de Jan
 e:ro. Cabral named the country Terra de Santa Cruz" or Land or the Holy Cross" and took possession in the name of Portugal. The gov- ernment of the latter country made .,o effort to establish a permanent settlement there until 1549. when Thomas de Souza was appointed gov ernor-general. The country was then called Brazil from the red dyewood 1 found in its forests

EXCELLENT RESULTS OF WORK OF
 CH|LDREN'S AID SOCIETIES

who have acquired property and filled positions of honor and trust"
 Among the American forces sent overseas, 1t is pointed out in the re- port, are 12 commissioned officers and about 1000 soldiers and sailors who were once wards of the Chil- dren's Aid Society. All were rescued from the streets or from asyiums and corrective institutions.
 The society, since it's foundation on Jan. g, 1855, has placed 32,0S1 orphans and deserted children in good homes in the country where many of them were later adopted. In addition 1,472 older boys and girls have been sent to farms in the West where they have been put on their feet and, becoming owners of ranches, have shown their apprecia- ton in later years by taking orphans into their homes. It has been estimated that the cost of salvaging child from the streets, according to the plan of the society, Is $50 which not only defrays the cost of placing the youngster in a | comfortable country home but pro- vides for supervision so long as it is necessary. The society keeps in touch with the boys or girls thus sent | out and has on file thousands ot grateful letters written by them after
 they have grown to manhood and womanhood.
 1 An instance of this gratitude was
 afforded in the report for 1918 of Ed
 win G. Merrill, treasurer of the SO
 ciety. who acknowledged a beques
 of s5,000 from the estate of Dr
 Michael A. Jordan, physician ane
 educator of Logansport, Ind. pr
 Jordan many years ago was friend less orphan in New York city anc
 was befriended by the Children's Ait
 Society. Many similar legacies from
 former wards have been left to tn ! organization in the past.

THE SHARK PATROL.

In the J. Allan Dunn story, "The Pearls of Tia Rau," another of Jim Morse's adventures in the South Sea, which appears in Boys Life" for January, Jim has a thrilling adven- tl1re running the gauntlet of the shark patrol that guards Tia Rau:
 "'The reef about the lagoon was showing clearer, outlined by the phosphorence. At one place the water swirled smoothly, deeper than the rest of the gaps, and wider. It was an entrance. Inside, the lagoon lay quiet. A small boat could enter now. But, patrolling the little gate. criss- crossing the fiery trails from their fins, moved the sharks. And, on the reef, several anchor stocks, the orly monuments of the crews who had been wrecked and found their fate in the maws of the sea-tigers, showed | plainly.
 Jim climbed over the rail, got | into the small boat and threw off the l hitch, coiling the painter. The sea 1 pitched only moderately. Though the i Sky ,nurky there seemed no 1 likelihood of anything but passing squalls.
 Suddenly the boat lurched as if it had struck rock. Jim looked to see 8 whirl of aqueous flame glide off. Another was approaching. Still 1 another joined 1t. Sharks! They 1 scraped alongside of the dinghy, judging at it with their shouts. testing its balance. Jim rowed desperately for the opening in the reef, fearful that one would seize the blade of an oar. After 8 short, hard pull he reached the gap, shot through and into the calm water that was alive with light There was sweat on his forehead. the sweat of fear. He had rassed one-half of the gauntlet but he had yet to return.
 Buck up and play the game, old scout, he murmured and padded over to where the largest anchor stock stood almost upright between the snags of coral. There was 2
 wide platform of the stuff only jus
 covered with the ebbing tide. Jin i stepped on it and got to work, fast
 ening his dinghy carefully to tht
 anchor. Then he got back into tn,
 boat and faced his return. The tidt was running out of the entrance ant , It swept him along towards thu
 schooner so that he needed only tt
 paddle. which he did with shalloV blades. On either side four shark escorted him, closing in as if the. feared they would lose their prey There was tug at his starboard ca
