the wards, accompanied by orderly or
nurse. Hard work and anxious, they
!, were cheerful and did not betray the
anxiety felt over many a case that was
) battling to the best OF medical Skill.
Their cheering words were as a tonic
TO many a poor fellow whose home
and friends were far away Many a
patient could not realize the serious
ness of his own condition, not even
when the white clothed screen had
been quietly placed before his cot
meaning that the final IN was
about to come. And even when order
lies carried out the covered s%tretcher,
the nearby patient would only specu-
late as to whether one Of their num-
Der had only been carried TO another
ward, for some special treatment.
The quiet doctor and the busy, care
fui nurse, would eVade any inquiry
that meant depression or fear to their
remaining charges.
Sitting this day upon the porch with
several who were convalescing in the
warm sunshine and balmy air of the
south, we listened to the rattle of
the rapid machine gun fire from those
who were still keeping up active drill
and practice. Swimming closely over
head were airplanes whose noisy en-
gineS proclaimed their 80 horse power.
Heavy motor trucks Jared the earth
as they rolled by full loaded with
equipment for troops who were soon
to entrain for other camps or start for
their homes within a few hours.
Through the open window, not ten
feet away stands the ward physician
by the cot of a patient whose hands
were held down by a nurse, a mere girl
from a nearby state. Three heroic
figures these-the boy, struggling
alone with grim death, the impassive
doctor who would save that life, and
the brave, faithful girl, who was Civ
ing her strength to help him whose
could not be with him.
And | felt that should victorious ar
mics of the world march by, led by
commanders Of renown, should our

AS Alfredo in Traviata, the initial offer

season, Ciccolini scored a distinct success.
Next day he dropped into a music studio
accompanied by his friends, Carolina and
Virgilio Lazarri, the famous contralto and
basso of the organization. They started
playing some of their own RECREATIONS
on the New Edison. AS the strains of Mare
chaire, the delightful Neapolitan street song
scared through the room the distinguished
tenor joined in, as pictured above, singing
in unison with his own RECREATION.

JOHNSON ENTERS
G. O. P. RACE FOR
THE PRESIDENCY

CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE
here during the past few days with
a number of his intimate friends and
supporters. He has determined to
make an active canvass for the
nomination in every State in the Union
by means Of personal speeches to the
voters and by permitting his name to
be entered in the Presidential pri-
maries wherever they are held.
Senator johnson will make his cam
paign on the same basis as that which
carried him successfully through all
his compaigns in his own State, un-
der the slogan Let the people rule "
His position will be that the people
as a whole have the right lto select
their candidates and that this
privilege should not be exercised by
any "well-known class of politicians" "
He emphasized this by saying:
Il intend to take my candidacy to
the people as have always done"
Americanixm Platform.
It Is expected that Senator John
sons platform will be based on the
principle OF Americanism. the abso-
Lutte rejection of the policy of I'm
ternationalism," which was injected
into the treaty fight. and for con-
structive domestic legislation along
progressive lines.
Senator johnson undoubtedly will
contribute toward making the rejec-
tion of the German treaty and the
league of nations an issue in the
fight His attitude regarding thS
treaty, as expressed during the de-
bate. was that no person in author
ity had the right to bind the people
of the United States into a compact
such as that which he contended was
embodied in acceptance of the treaty.
This position, Senators close to Sen
ator johnson asserted today, is con-
sistent with his general policy that
the people should have the right to
decide all such important questions
involving q change Of national policy.

Hopkinton. Mass, Dec. Is. - The
sheriT's force and the State police
have been called out to suppress the
high school soviet, which is said TO
have been inspired by Miss Ellen M.
Duffey. Hopkinton's most popular
school teacher.
With the exception OF the authori-
ties and the members of the school
board, the community Is almost unani-
nous in its support of Miss Duffey,
and Selectman Edward Carr believes
that there is danger of mob action
against the enemies of Miss Duffey.
Trouble began when Miss Duffey
advised the members of the gradu-
ating class that they should not
accept diplomas unless they were
properly signed by the school board.
As q result. the diplomas were re-
jccteG and the class held its own
graduating exercises.
The board dismissed Miss Duffey
without a hearing. but she declined
to leave her position. When the
sheriff appeared in her classroom
and ordered Miss Duffey from the
school. her pupils walked oct with

send sought to impress DR.. Garfield
with the idea that the public has a
right to know his reasons for resign
ing and to know what he said to the
President in expressing his objections
to the Palmer plan with which the
President replaced the Garfield plan.
DR.. Garfield. however. insisted that 1t
was a confidential document and could
not be given out except by the Presl-
dent. The same attitude was taken
by DR.. Garfield with respect to a tele-
gram sent to him by Attorney General
Palmer explaining the terms upon
which the controversy was settled
with the miners.
"PubIic to BE victim.-
Regarding his retirement from the
office OF Fuel Administrator, DR.. Gar
field said the President had full au-
thority to set aside his appointment
and appoint someone else in his place
The President also had authority to
name a commission to fix prices II
he chose. he said.
L could not possibly offer any OBJ
lection to that" DR.. Garfield stated.
But my objection went to the point
that If majority of the commission

ity. I believed this to be a bad thing,
and so stated"
The witness said he spent three en-
tire nights in the office of the Federal
Trade Commission going over 1000 cost
sheets of the coal industry in the
central competitive field and finally
arrived at the conclusion that an in
crease of II per cent was fair to the
miners and could be imposed upon the
operators without bringing about an
increase in the price of coal. It was
not necessary. he said. to grant the
miners more than IA per cent in order
to establish for them a fair standard
of living.
