In his book Average Americans
Theodore Roosevelt comments on the
fact that all classes and conditions Of
men were to be found in the ranks Of
the American army waters, chauf-
feurs, lawyers. He adds:
"a lieutenant once spoke to me after
an action, saying that when he va,
leading his platoon back from The bat
tie one OF his privates asked him =
question. The question was so intel
lgent and so we'll thought out that Tho
lieutenant said to him: What were

The story does not surprise Us. Yea|y

In letter written by Elmer who

"Our friends in the extreme left have

Joseph T. Wilkinson underwent a
serious operation at the Macfarlane
Hospital last Friday morning. The
operation was performed by Dr. Mid
dleton of Salt Lake City, assisted by
Drs. Macfarlane, Wilkinson and Berg
strom. The operation was apparently
successful and the patient is slowly
recovering from the effects, and is far
enough along to permit of his leaving
the hospital today. AS the patient is
in his 72nd year, the element of risk
was considerable, but the operation
was the only hope of improved health.
