He loved children and was al
ways interested in their work and
play, especially boys. 1t is said
that when a crippled boy was
brought to see him he took his
hand and spoke kind words to
him. And when a little child Of
fered his flowers, he would lift her
UP and kiss her. He did these
things, not for "show" but as re-
suit of the sincere feeling of his
great warm heart.
And boys, everything they did,
he was interested in; in fact,
Teddy" was only great, big boy
himself, and liked nothing better
than to take OF some time from
work to "get in" some strenuous
games or sports with his boys. He
was the chum of his boys, of whom
there were four.
He once said Of the American
boy:
HE must not be coward or
weakling, bully, shirk or a prig.
He must work hard and play hard
He must be clean-minded and clean

over the entire body of the car and
the front part was brought up into
a sharp angle.
The British used the greatest
care in keeping the manufacture OF
these machines an absolute secret;
for of course, no hint Of the idea
must get to the ears Of the enemy.
The name tank" was given to the
machine to make people think the
steel plates were being made to
be used in building vessels to hold
water or gasoline.
II was on the morning OF Sept.
IS, 1916, that these steel monsters
started leisurely across No Mans
Land-a complete surprise to the
German and Austrian fighters.
Down into the great shell holes
and up again with perfect ease,
over wire entanglements, over ma
chine gun emplacements, even over
and passed small trees, the wad-
ding tanks went. The Germans
fled in greatest terror, before them.
The tanks were wonderful sue
cess
Life in the tanks isn't very pleas
ant, as the air is bad, and the noise
is terrific, but that is war, and
such things must be endured.
After a while, the Germans built
themselves some tanks: but they
turned out to be exceedingly awk-
ward, ugly things, too heavy to be
efficient.

The big British tanks, because
they were slow moving, though
they were proof against machine
guns, were not proof against the
big field guns.
So another surprise came. The
British made some baby tanks,
that could travel at the rate OF
twelve miles an hour, called Whip
pets;" that name being given aft
er the name of q certain kind OF
dogs noted for its great speed.
These carried only two men, one to
guide the machine and one to oper-
ate the machine gun, while the big
ger tanks carried from eight to ten
men. The French, later, made
some baby tanks, too. and called
them, Mosquito" tanks. and
these little tanks proved splendid
ly effective, darting back and forth
on the battlefields, proof against
the machine guns and evading the
big field guns.
America has made some tanks
for her soldiers, and is developing
other kinds of tanks for military
purposes, but this information, has
so far been, necessarily kept sec
ret. Perhaps we can soon learn
what the United States has done in
perfecting these great. almost hui
man-looking machines.
So far as is known, Leland Had

lived, and able to hold his own
under all circumstances and against
all corners. 1t is only on these con-
ditions that he win grow into the
kind of American man Of whom
America can be really proud"
All these qualities are personified
in the life OF Theodore Roosevelt,
consistently and to great degree.
Besides all these splendid qualities,
his free and easy ways, his kind
ness, his geniality with everyone
he met, and his interest in people,
endeared him to the hearts Of the
American people, as well as to
many on foreign shores.
So it is not with pride alone, but
with sincere affection, that the
aearts of all American boys and
girls are stirred as they think OF
Teddy" Roosevelt.
We do not regard anyone OF sucf
a life and such a character. merely
as a splendid memory. We realize
that his spirit will always be a liv
ing, vitalizing, splendid force in the
lives OF men-especialfy the men Of
! our own, wonderful America

Army aviators eircl;ns over Oyster 6a

Last Monday morning about four
O'Clock, we lost a friend-Theodore
Roosevelt.
A friend OF ours? Yes. For a
friend is one whose interests are
the same as ours, and who cares
enough for us, not only to tell us
what our lives and surroundings
may become, but also to spend his
time and energy in making these
longed-for things realities.
Such was Roosevelt. From his
earliest boyhood until the morning
of January 6. Roosevelt believed in,
taught and struggled for, strong,
upright character in people and in
their government; forceful and eft.
fective action after keen and care
full thought and deliberate es'
pecially on the part Of those whom
the people trust as their leaders
and a healthy and useful. simple
and Cody life both in individuals
and in the collected body Of individ
uals represented by the nation
And he portrays these qualities in
his own personality.

Faithful Dog
Finds Lost Child

In the widest part Of the Cum
berland Mountains OF Tennessee.
was lost little child on the night
of November %, 1918. The child
is the five-year-old daughter OF MI.
and Mrs. Click Godsey, who live
on a small farm four miles from
the little village of Ozone, Tennes-
see. The little girl asked her
mother If she might accompany a
a little friend part OF the way home.
The request was granted. 1t was
about three o'clock in the afternoon.
When the child failed to return
at dusk the mother became alarmed,
and the father went to the home OF
his neighbor, thinking his little
daughter had accompanied her
friend home. He learned that the
little girl had left her friend at
the edge of the clearing early In
the afternoon.
The father took lantern and
alone went to the top OF Black
Knob. 1t was raining and the night
| was very dark. This is a very
wild, isolated region, and the
scream of the wildcat is often
heard The mountains here abound
in bluffs and deep streams, and for
miles and miles no one esides. The
father returned alone at 10 o'clock
1 that night
BY this time a party of neigh
boring men joined In the search.
The signal, should the little one
be found. was to blow the dinner
horn. This horn is used in calling
| men out OF the fields to their noon
day meals in the Tennessee Houn-
tains. The signal was not sounded,
and the hunters returned in the
early hours Of the morning and re-
ported that no trace Of the child
could be found.
| 1t was at this juncture that the
father of the little girl turned to
'sOld Babe" the dog, and told him
!: to go flnd the baby" The dog
was taken to the clearing where the
child was last seen. For some time
the dog failed TO take the scent
But At last with yelp OF joy Old
Babe was OF, the father Of the
i child following.
/ Miles from home, in the thick I'M
: derbrush, the little hood belonging
e to the girl was picked UP. Some
|, distance beyond the father heard
the joyful yelps Of the dog. The
little girl was found in a deep gulch
!, safe and unframed, soundly sleep
!. ing between two logs. The dog
]. was Juggling at her garments in an
: effort to arouse her, when the faith
e er heached the spot. Her wander

INDIANA HARBOR CIVIC
CLUB MAKES CASE

The following is the statement made
before the rate hearing commission IN
Chicago on behalf of the Indiana Har-
Dor Civic club:
This is an organization Of three
hundred business. professional and 9TH
erwise employed men for the purpose Of
promoting the civic. commercial and in
dustrial interests of the city and also
for tire purpose of cooperating with other
civic and like organizations for the pro-
motion Of the welfare Of the entire
Calumet region. This organization is
not n traffic organization. and il has no
traffic experts following such cases as
this.
our understanding Of this case Is.
that certain interests within the state
of Indiana claim discrimination between
the rates locally within the state Of In
diana as compared with the rates locally
within the state of Illinois; that the
Public Service Commission IF Indiana
fled a complaint to this effect with the
United states Railroad administrations
that the United States Railroad Admin
istration ordered certain Of its trattlc
committees to consider the complaint
and to report their findings: fhct before
the conclusion Of such hearings ne

withdrew the case from said committees
and referred il to The Interstate Gem
merce Commission for advice ana
recommendation as to what. Il anything.
should be done with the complaint tha'
tho United states Railroad Adminlstra-
tion Is now recommending r. the Inter
state Commerce Commission that II
should make a ending that the eastern
classification should De substituted To-
cauy within Illinois and the territory
under the Illinois influence, for the Hi
nois classification: and :hat rates now
