TAMPA, Nov. 1O-This city will be
the gathering place this week of the
twenty sixth annual convention Of
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy, of which Miss Mary B. Pop
penheim, of Charleston, S. c., is pres
ident general. Miss Poppenheim ar

vention, the opening session of which
will be held Tuesday morning, with
the auditorium Of the First Presbyte-

I'M proving too small to house the del
egates and visitors-an event that
row appears to be extremely proba-
ble-the sessions will probably be
held in the Tampa Bay casino, which
will seat nearly 1900. The dele
gates will number about 500, but
there will be a large number Of other
visitors, members of the United Dau-
ghters of the Confederacy and allied
organizations. Already the hotels
are reserved almost to the limit, but
Tampa members will throw open their
homes to the delegates and visitors to
whatever extent proves to be neces-
sary.
President Gen. Poppenheim was ac-
companied to Tampa by her sister,
Miss Louise Poppenheim, also OF
Charleston, and her cousin, Miss En-
ma Bauknight of Charleston, who will
be page-in-chief of the convention.
An interesting figure at the conven-
ton will be Gen. Evander M. Law,
of Barlow, the ranking living Con-
federate army officer. Gen. Law has
several times refused the post of COM
rander-in-chief of the United Con-
federate Veterans smilingly stating
that he is the banking officer Of the
old army of the Gray, no matter who
happens TO be elevated to the post
of commander of the national organi-
cation. Gen. Law will extend the
welcome of the Florida division, U.

MAN WHO DOESN'T GROW UP
Just What Is Wrong With Individual
Who Fails to keep Up With
the Procession"

insufficient occupation and the con-
seriousness of not being Of much use
nearly always explain the man who
does not grow up. There may have
been period In his life when he was
an admired ornament of society, when
his Cleverness was applauded, when
his violent assertions and rash crid-
csms and absurd resentments were
listened to as the outp0urings Of an
interesting and awakening mind and
were valued perhaps for some facility
in utterance; but the mind has not ma
tured, perhaps because 1t never was
forced to grapple with anything vital,
and the facility in utterance that was
a charm in youth has dwindled with
years to peevish fuency in objection,
censure and condemnation. The man
who at twenty-five is still a dabbler,
with faculty for raising laugh by
his trenChant disparagements of the
achievements of grown men, is likely
ut sixty to be complaining Of the cook
ing ana the weather, the high prices
and the policy of the administration
or living only for the purpose Of ex-
pressing his discomfort with the uni
verse.
A man needs time in which to grow
up, but If he does not fertiliEe time
with work he will be only the weed Of
a man.-Youth's Companion.

TAMES "OUTLAW' ship
Youngest Commander in Navy
Performs Feat.
"crankiest Ship AfIoat" Comes to Be
Real Peaceable Army
Transport.

San Francisco.-The devils" have
been cast out of the good ship Great
Northern.
Chastened by the grim spectacle Of
war, in which she nobly "did her bit"
by transporting 10000 Yankee soldiers
across the Atlantic, the one-time
"crankiest ship afloat" came back
home few days ago, obedlent to the
hand of the youngest commander in
the United States navy.
He is Charles II. Porta, born in
Turin, Italy, thirty-four years ago. His
father is Prof. Albert F. Porta, noted
archaeologist, scientist and sun-spot
observer.
"a ship is just like grand opera
prima DONNA" he says. "She needs a
bit of petting and pampering to keep
her in good humor-but there's moth
ing uncanny about her. And when she
is right-boys how she can singr
The Great Northern travelled more
than 100000 miles in the coaStwise
and Honolulu passenger service before
America entered the war. In those
days she was forever "stubbing her
tOe"-blundering into pier heads,
breaking her machinery and 'fussing"
generally. At that, she was the fleet
est and sweetest craft on the western
ocean.
Then Uncle Sam shouldered arms
and the big 'prima donna" of the sea
donned a gray uniform and went east
as transport. Coincidentally she
dropped the nonsense somewhere be-
tween San Francisco and Hoboken and
never went back to look for it. From
then on she was all business.
Once In the North sea the Great
Northern ran afoul of British patrol
boat and lost two of her after COM
partments, but she gamely struggled
into port with her cargo of about H.
900 doughbOys, spent week in dry
dock and went back to work. In all
she steamed 125,O00 miles between
America and France during and i'm
mediately after the war.
Just now she is operating as troop
ship between San Francisco and Via
divostok, but rumOr says she will soon
be back on the Pacific passenger run,
and that Commander Porta will con-
tinue to skipper" her between the
mainland and Hawaii.

YOUNG HEROES AT OXFORD
Many Customs and Traditions Of the
University Are Likely to Seem
Tame to Them.

The returning hero, fresh from battle
fields, will no longer rush to the
cricket fields and the river at Oxford
with the zeSt of young barbarians at
their play, observes a writer in The
Nation UOndon). To one who may
wear the ribbon of the Military Cross
or the D. S. O., the position of his col
lege boat in the Fights can no longer
seem the one matter of life and death,
and even the halo of a goal shines
with diminished glory.
So, too, in lesser pursuits. How
shall he dwell upon the squabbles of
compartments in ancient Greece, when
he himself has motored from SaiOniki
to Athens in a day, and on to Sparta
in the next? Or what will he feel
when questioned on his fading men,
cries of the irregular verbs? Probably
most public school boys are haunted
to old age by a dream-a terrible
nightmare-of being put on" by the
old headmaster when they have not
taken the trouble TO prepare line ol
the passage. 1t makes no difference
that they are more than so and the
headmaster has long been dead. The
horror of the situation remains ap-
palling, and the dream is far more
frequent than any of Freud's mag
mary perversions.
The feeling of the soldier returning
to the class and lecture room will be
much the same, with a sense of fulfil
ity added. For, indeed, 1t is impossi-
BILE to go back in life and second child
hood is not like the first. Little VIC
tins play regardless of their doom,
but not men who have known what
doom can do.

NOW WALK WITH FRAULEINS
Order Forbddino Fraternization by
Soldiers Is Revoked by Nal.
Gen. Allen.

Coblenz.-The army regulation pro-
hiBiting American officers and soldie.
from fraternizing with Germans has
been revoked in an order issued by
Maj. Gen. Allen.
The rule against fraternizing be-
came effective in December soon after
Maj. Gen. Dickson ana the American
army of occupation reached the Rhine.
The British and French are reported
to have lifted their ban several months
ago.
For the last month the regulation in
the America area had not been strictly
enforced and there has been consider
able prOmenading by American soldiers
with German girls.
The revocation of the fraternizing
order in no way affects the regulation
prohibiting American soldiers from
marrying German women.

Pet Carp a Fishing Prophet.

Meadville, Pa.-One of the best fish
stories of the season comes from Craw-
ford county, where man owns a pet
carp. Whenever he desires to go
fishing he digs few angle worms and
throws them into the tank occupied
by the carp. If the pet fish grabs
them, the man takes up his bait and
tackle and proceeds to the nearest
fishing place. If, on the other hand,
the carp passes them up, the man stays
at home. AS a result, this man re-
turns with a fine catch every time he
makes a trip to his favorite fishing
stream, so he says.

usual signs by which the prophets
forecast the results of an election are
of little value at this time for the
