me that the phone at 1920 Twenty
third street was not in the Patton
name.
Still burning with curiosity we
decided to go up to the Pattons
ourselves. But at 1920 Twenty
third street the butler, very foreign,
insisted that he had never heard OF
the Pattons. ano finally called his
master to explain. The master OF
the household turned out to be the
Prince de Bearn, counselor of the
French Embassy. you know. The
prince was charming and interested.
He remembered that the house had
! been rented by the Pattons before
/ he took possession and obligingly
hunted up the name of the agent
handling the property. He was so
nice that jotted down in my
memory the notation that the prince
was a-a-a prince. No one likes TO
be routed out at night, annoyed
about perfectly irrelevant matters
but he was delightful about it.

PERSHING DENIED
MARRIAGE REPORTS,


The next day we heard that Gen.
Pershing was leaving Washington
with one of his aides, Col. Marshall,
for visit of few days with
Charles Dawes lin Marietta. Ohio.
Mr.. Dawes, you know, Is a close
friend of the generals and was at
one time the chief OF the A. Z. F.
purchasing Office -. The general
laushingly denied the reports of
his approaching marriage. -
Not a word of truth in it," he
declared. II am only going out to
Marietta for. a few days vacation
with Charlie Dawes - nothing
more" He added that he had no
intention Of visiting either Senator
Harding or Gov. Cox while in Ohio
and that his trip had no political
significance whatever.
He will return sometime this
coming week. When the general
left the city he was wearing "cits'
for the first time in Washington
since the war. l believe. He wore a
dark gray business suit with q
straw hat, and Col. Marshall wore
somewhat similar attire. The gen.
eral looks we'll it, the clothes oi
ordinary mortals, but do hope he
doesn't discard his army regalis
permanently, but of course he will
after his resignation from the
army takes effect.

One may be a golfer and yet be pres
ident Of the United States. In fact, it
might almost be said th"t one must be
a golfer to become president. Mr..
Taft, former president, is & golfer;
President Wilson is a devotee of the
game, and the Republican nominee,
Warren g. Harding, was off to the
Chevy Chase golf course on the after
noon Of the day he arrived in the CAPT
tai, following his nomination for the
presidency, says Christian Science
Monitor. British statesmen. as well as
American leaders, respond to the lure
of the links. and one is easily led TO
the conclusion that the royal and an
cient" pastime affords the most salts
factory means of relaxation.
Wauwatosa news. [volume] (Wauwatosa, Wis.) 1900-1948, 1920-08-27

The best type of citizen is the
product Of the American home. That
alone has the right to hope for the
highest place the nation can offer.
The children of Americans ought to
be the best asset of the nation. We
would not discount the loyal citizens
who have come from across the sea,
but they can never feel the same thrill
as they pass beneath the Stars and
Stripes as does the boy who Is born to
them. The age needs to recognize his
worth and give him the best chance
possible. In him is stored the posi-
blities of Lincoln. This sun-tanned
son of the field may be another Wash
ington. All the forces of the past
have yielded their heritage TO him.
The social, economic and religious
forces Of ten thousand years converge
in him, giving into his hand the desti-
ny of the future.

WAR ANp suIclpE.

Inc value of having something be-
s'aeS oneself TO think about is strongly
Illustrated in the statistics of insur-
ance companies showing the suicide
rate during the war period. 1t was
SAID at the time that the war was
causing much insanity--or at least re
Veaiing insanity-by its unsettling eff
Feet on unstable minds, but suicide
mania was not one of the forms which
1t took. The fact is that the suicide
rate among white men dropped more
than one-third in the war period, says
Detroit Free Press. The decline be-
gan when the war in Europe com
menced to absorb American attention
and continued through the war period.
The fall in the rate for white men and
women indicates that about $500 per-
sons who would have committed sui
eide in ordinary times did not do so
in 1918. The experience in Europe was
similar TO that in the United States.
One of the recognized evils of war
is that it kills off the brightest and
best among the men, but ii has hardly
been suspected that it tends TO pre-
serve the lives OF those who are so
abnormal that in normal times they
would not even wish TO live.

Along the Ohio valley we are wit
Messing already one effect of denuda-
ton Of watersheds which should be
warning. Within the memory Of men
not beyond middle age every food left
a thick deposit of black sediment
forest loam-upOn tile river bottom
fields along the Ohio. The sediment
sometimes drifted against the fences
as snow drifts before wind, and was
left after the flood in black ridges Of
fertilizer. Nowadays there is nothing
like as much renewal of fertility. The
land that once sent leaf loan into the
food now bleeds red clay or has been
Died white" upon deforested water
sheds. Yet the destruction of forests
continues and nowhere is the private
landowner awake TO the necessity for
conservation as private project and
as state project, writes Tom Wallace
in Southern Agriculturist. The now
organized farmers would do well to
give attention To this problem, with a
view to creating effective state for
estry, which would inculcate the prin-
ciples of conservation among private
owners.

The animal pets we make and learn
10 love do not talk to us-in words
and they use no language that we rec
ognize with one another. 1.-THE dumb
brutes," we sometimes call them. Yet
when your dog stands at your knee
ana looks up at you, how eloquent
are his eyes His friendship proclaims
Itself in a speaking silence; his whole
attitude is loquaci0us of his fendness
and his loyalty. Two are friends when
they have learned to interpret Alright
the silence that falls between them
They know that the understanding is
complete and that no words are neces-
sary to an explanation. 1t is a relief
when one may without reservation
trust and be trusted, though nothing
is said, says Philadelphia Ledger We
might, indeed, learn from our humble
dependent the dog a valuable lesson
of implicit faith that does not need
the medium of writing or of speech.
