THE PAWN.
[ rOdaY's TAXI

I roday's Talk
A man must ever hold himself
in readiness to be played. He
must take with great grace the
fact that he must at times become
mere pawn for an idea. Yet may
he rank among the immortal
worth-whiles of the world-fOr in
Life, as in the game of chess, the
pawn often holds the key to the
winning play.
Only as you are able to link your
own noble aims and efforts with
the larger ones of Time, are you
able to feel working within you
the conscious pursuit of a great
purpose, as Aristotle has so fine
ly put it-meaning that the ma
chinery of high achievement which
Nature has given to Man begins
its motion the minute that he
sights his ideal.
With such a feeling breeding
within ones mind and heart, who
can hesitate before great chance?
Who would not be willing to lay
down his very life and ask that
it be traded in for an ideal?
Napoleon walked through pest
houses withoue fear. Roosevelt |
evaded his guards. while presl-
dent, for it was distasteful to him
to think that, if his body was TO
be sacrificed, it would not well
serve its end. |
Greatness stalks in the open
But this big business of pawn
serving isn't confined to the full
ness Of fame. The men or women
behind their desks and machines,
loing the days work we'll, are as
.ruly spending their lives to a
'ine purpose - pawns for the
'hronicler Of passing time TO
iote with pride.
SO let us talk to our tired bodies
md to our Oft-discouraged hearts,
md tell them to remember that
What they give out is the only 1
hing of permanence about them. |

NEW YORK-First Sergeant
Dan DAILY, undoubtedly the best

the exception of Sergeant York
CT Argonne fame, was placed on
the inactive list OF the marine
corps reserve last week. DAILY won
two medals of honor and in the
the Boxer rebellion and in the
capture OF Fort Riviere in Haiti,
and is said to be the only man in
all the services who holds two
medals Of honor.
In the World war his feats OF
exceptional bravery won him the
Medaille Militaire and the CroiI

Distinguished Service cross from
General Pershing. His passing
from the active list to accept a
