Need for New Life of Lincoln

Charles w. Moores, in the Yale Review.
 The satisfactory lives of L!ucoln are surprisingly few. Nieolay and Hay s work, really history of the Civil war, almost fills five-foot shelf. and yet gives us little of Lincolns personality
 while Heradon and Charnwood, who fol- lows Herndon closely, give us only Q partial portrait of the man. It is likely that all the "reminiscences of those who knew him well have been published. One regrets that David Davis and stanton, and most of all Robert Lincoln. have left no complete record of their best im- pressons of the great American. Except such confidential papers as have been withheld by the family and possibly a few of the Speed letters which we should love to see entire. little remains un- published of I4incoln's writings. Let us hope that it will not be too long until an author with finer sensibilities than Herndon may give us the great biog- raphy, creating out of the wealth of ma terial already at hand and out of the intimate sources thus far denied to his

be decided before. or during. the peace conference.
 Three nations are supremely interested. Portugal owns the islands. Great Brit ain is contracting for land in the arch ipelago, to be used as a naval air sta- tion. The United States has had an inn portant naval base at Ponta Delgada dur ing the war. The future of the Azores lies between these three governments.
 As for the inclinatons of the Azoreans Themselves, it may be said that there are more Azoreans in the United States than there are in the Azores. The population of the islands is estimated at 25T, ,462 The population of the Azorean colonies in New Bedford, Fall River, Boston and in California, is estimated at 30O,000.
 As this is being written, Portuguese newspapers in the United States are be- ginning, on instruction from Azorean sources at Ponta Delgada, a campaign of propaganda to induce the American dele gates to the peace conference to take an official interest in the future of the Azores.
 The Azores have lately been the scene of typically naval episode-an episode of a sort which unfortunately never gets into print. By this time, Ponta Delgada has been for some IS months United States naval base IS, under the command of Rear Admiral H. O. Dunn. U. s. N.
 When Admiral Dunn first reached tho Azores he found the islands sorely in need of wheat. Solely as a measure of relief he secured 300 tons from the United States and disposed of it to the civil au- thorities without charge for freight. Just now when the islands are suffering from influenza, he has helped with medi- cal supplies. Another incident which oc cured on July 4, 1917, has helped to ce- ment the Azorean attachment for the United States navy. At a. m., a German submarine began bomharding the town of Ponta Delgada from a point several miles off the breakwater. The collier, U. s. $. Orion which happened at the time to be lying for repairs just inside the break water, replied with her stern gun The submarine submerged at once and the Orion became the hero of the Azores Today you will find bars and babies and cigarettes in Ponta Delgada, named Orion"
 The result of these and similar incl dents has been that. just as the navy once went to the Azores, the Azores have now come to the navy The navy. without in any way seeking it, has won
 in the Azores one of those incidental vic- tories for which navies are created. It has won new and lasting friend for the nation whose colors the navy flies. And that Is the highest duty of-navies. s.s,,-
 Let it be distinctly understood that the navy has not sought to inerfere in Azor- can affairs. Azorean affairs are none of the navy's business. The navy has done it's days work wherever it is sent. But Admiral Dunn and the navy have lived

toriaus, the complete portrait for which the world is waiting. The need for such a life is greater since well-meaning and gifted writers of fiction have created the Lincoln myth. His spectacular career and striking personality lend themselves well to the uses of fiction and the drama. "The Crisis" and "The Perfect Tribute" have perpetuated this myth with delicacy and skill. Other tales. founded on tra- dition, have been seized upon as authen- tic by readers who are not sensitive to the distinction between history and fic- tion. Even the movies have encouraged the myth by giving to romance loving audiences the impersonation of senti- nlontalist who was not quite man. l am not willing to condemn the use of Lin- coin traditions. of which there are many, as the background for fiction and the drama, but this has emphasized the need for real biography.

The following clipping was taken from "The Cure the weekly paper pub lished at the base hospital at Camp Upton, Long Island:
 Capt. Charles Porter, who came here in October of 1917, has been in charge of the operating room and clinic of the eye, ear nose and throat department, and during Major Liberts absence acted as chief of service and has been chief of service since June, 1918.
 Captain Porter, chief of the service. is the son of Mir and Mrs. Charles B. Porter Of Sylacauga, but at the time of his enlistment was located in Boston, Mass, Prior to enlisting in the medical corps last year he served with the English army in France 1915-16. He is graduate of the University of Vir- ginia, and besides being attending sur geon at several hospitals in Boston, he is instructor in biology at the Harvard medical school:

in the Azores for about a year by this time. And the Azores have found them good neighbors.
 There is no reason why new friend ships which the navy makes for the nation should be filed away In the ar chives of the state and navy depart ments at Washington and be forgotten There is no reason why this newest friendship should not be transmitted into an actual relation of mutual in- terest and affection between the peo- pie of the United States. Incidentally such a relationship would give the United States navy a new meaning in the hearts of the nation whose strong right arm 1t is.
 WHAT KOREANS WANT
 It is to find in the hearts of Ameri- cans that regard for the Azorean peo- pie whom the navy has discovered that this article is written. This afternoon l have talked to an Azorean who is very prominent in the islands.
 If the islands are to remain in their present status as Portuguese ter ritory" he said, nothing but poverty awaits us. We are compelled to send from fS0,00 to f100. 900 year to Lis bon. We receive in return no new roads and so few schools that 70 per cent of our working class population is illiterate. We have no money 10 develop our great resources. We exist for no purpose but to help finance revolutions in Lisbon.
 Lisbon takes no notice of us, but for the money we can send her. To her we are as far away the moon She refers to us as the island She does not know that we are nine is- lands
 q do not say this because I am an Azorean, but it is true that the Azor- cans are the flower of the Portuguese peoples The first two presidents of the Portuguese republics were Azor cans"
 The appeal which the Azoreans arc making to the American authorities places the United States in most deli cate position. The AZorean archipeia- go is on the European side of the Atlantic and should the American au- thorities take official notice of the be established for American interven- tion in European affairs.
 The very great military value of the Azores also makes the present situa- tion an embarrassing one.

Gifts for Sweet
Girl Graduates!

WHAT shall we give herr"
Ihats n first question in our
minds after we open the ommence-
!, ment invitations which begin to ap-
pear in u mail. Whether the sweet
est girl in the world be graduated
from the public schools. high school,,
or college, It's a great day for her
her first public appearance. her first
day to receive gifts and c~ongratula-
tons from an admiring world!
Silk hose n gloves are always
good taste and are appreciated.
Choose either white or black as they
are sure of a welcome, and arrange
with the shop where the purchase is
made for an exchange II the size is
not right.
Books. which are popular with
gift-givers, are a somewhat difficult
lchoice unless the girl is a book lover
and the giver happens to know just
what she wants-then give books by
all means.
There are numbers of lovely gifts
in leather-purses, card cases, photo
graph frames, writing portfolios and
even little travelling clocks set In
leather cases. Any girl would love
the new "canteen" bags int leather,
shaped somewhat like an opera or
field glass case, and fitted with the
feminine paraphernalia of vanity, in
Guiding a really generous mirror TT
! ted in the lid. They may be had at
various prices M are new and
smart.
For small gifts of jewelry choose
one of the new long bar pins for fast
ening the tailored blouse collar, or
n of the new delectable veil pins,
or hatpins.
Most girls of graduating age have
already begun the collection of q spe-
cial pattern Of silver for the hope
chest" that is to furnish forth the
NEXT great day Of maidenhood."
The friends of such will bring ever
lasting gratitude by adding q piece or
\ pieces to the set"
The girl who is going away to col
lege will love a tea-set, q teapot and
a silver tea-ball to take with her for
the sacred function OF the college
spread.
II the girl is coming home from
four years Of college she'll appre-
ciate from home folks the new trunk,
or the smart bag and suitcase that
will help her to move home her ac-
cumulated belongings.
