WORLD NOW TURNS

Washington. May 1.-THE world
now turns from the brutalities Of kill
ing men to tho one thing for which
the world was made-the making OF
men. We fought that we might
live. that our ideals might have a
free soil in which to grow. And with
enthusiasm and renewed courage we
now turn to those enterprises and
efforts which we recognize as the nor
NAL life of civilized people"
With these words. Franklin X.
Lane, secretary OF the Department OF
the Interior, last night started in mo-
ton the machinery OF the most COM
plete exposition of governmental ac-
tivities ever held in Washington. The
exposition is educational in character
and is for the purpose OF illustrating
the varied activities OF the Depart
ment of the Interior, the part its
technical experts played in war work
and its two most noteworthy plans
in reconstrCct:on--the Americaniza-
ton and the farms for-soldiers move
ments.
Mr.. Lane Continued: ITO mark the
dividing line between the days of war
and those Of peace this exposition
has been created. II is more than
presentation OF the daily doings of
those who work in this department.

.0LD HERMIT JIN'S
LAST SACRIFICE

No one ever knew where Hermit
Jim Hudson came from. None knew
his story
One day he was discovered in a
little shack built of refuse lumber
from the dump down by the river.
And there he lived for forty years.
In summer he fished, worked little,
but never talked of himself. In
winter he hibernated, so to speak.
He was a. big, outstanding two
fsted fellow, capable of much, but
utterly Indifferent to all about him.
He was an enigma, a mystery, a town
character.
AS the years passed Hermit Jim
lost his robustness of figure and what
remained of his ambition to work.
Finally, at seventy, the sheriff took
him in charge and carted him off to
the poor farm Hermit jim was a
mere skeleton, his clothes in tatters,
and his feet bound in burlap in plac.
of shoes. His cupboard was almost
as bare as Mother Hubbard's, yet
right there he voiced the only COM
plant he had ever been known to
make. His shack was his castle, he
declared, and should be respected
Finally, however, he capitulated
but not without protest. I'm not
objecting to having more to eat or
better bed Sheriff" he conceded, in
English quite out of keeping with his
condition, "but | don't like the
prospective finish. It's poor climax
to my early training and ambitions"
Then, despite the sheriff's efforts to
draw him out, he became clam
again.
Only once more he discussed his
case. They were then in sight of the
poor house. My life has been a
failure Sheriff." he declared, staring
blankly ahead. why, doesn't par
ticularly matter. I've been captain
of my soul for sixty years, but poor
pilot, maybe" he chuckled mirth
lessly. Il had better start than
most men, but things broke wrong,
| lost ambition, interest i'll life, care
fer the future and regard for respect
ability, I've been a lone wolf.
Suddenly he Strengthened and his
eyes flashed with rev light. God,
Sheriff, how | might have died had
this war come half century earlier.
Maybe in a fight with a birdman
three miles in the air! Maybe going
| over the top in the gray of the
morning! Maybe hand to hand with
my fingers digging into Boche's
throat! And maybe far behind the
firing line from a biff on the head
