Defender OF L|ECE
DIES OF PNEUMONIA

BRUSSELS, Oct. 1S.-General Lee
man, defender of Liege against the
German advance early in the war, died
at Llege today from pneumonia.
General Leman was Governor of
Liege at the outbreak of the war. 1t
was his gallant defense of the city
from the German attack just as the
drive through Belgium was in full
swing, that held up the advance of the
German troops for several days, a de-
lay which the imperial staff had not
anticipated and which told materially
against the Germans in the campaign
which ultimately resulted in their
check at the Marine.
General Leman was wounded in the
fighting and was captured August %,
1914. He was held in German
prison until December, 1917, when, be-
cause of his ill health, he was released
and made his way out of Germany to
France by way of Switzerland. After
the Allied victory he accompanied
King Albert in the official re-entry Of
the Belgians into Liege and was given
an enthusiastic welcome by the people
of his home city.
General Lenan was 6S years old. Up
to few months before the war he was
head Of the Belgian Military School
In addition to his notable qualities as
a commander, he was an authority on
Roman law, military architecture and
engineering

Mrs. Haines returned to her ironing.
But l went to the window and looked
out. Wis voice came back to me.

singing in triumph. you're a boy

She repeated it over and over, it

Can you notice the rhythm in the

fleeing things have grown so much
more acute lately-that Violet often
talks rhythmically. Perhaps it is the
natural poetry that is in the child that
expresses itself so.
James was coming up the path to
the porch, carrying a load of school
books under his arm. In spite of his
sisters taunts, he was looking quite
peaceful.
Not many boys would be so good
natured if a girl beat them," l re.
marked to Esther.
Not many boys would let their

The two came in again, James shut
ting the door which Violet had fo,-

blew in with them.

began. Esther was evidently in a bad
humor and l wanted to smooth things
down and keep the children quiet.

so warm and sunny and fresh and

creatures put on your things and come
out and smell it?
Her little impudence was so pretty
that not even her mother resented it.
She looked through the window al
the sunny yard, where patches OF
hrownish, dirty snow still fingered.
"Well, It's March," she agreed re

REALIZATION.
CHAPTER 1

SHdpIcI L.
1t was not until early spring that
began to realize what / was or,
rather, what had become. The trans
formation came later-quite bit later,
and was slow in coming. The reai.
cation was even slower. perhaps.
That was-well, let's see, three
years or more ago. But the period
actually covered by my transformation
was not much more than two. And j
am counting in that period every min
ute from the time l first began to re-
alize.
But before begin l want to say
one thing. and shall repeat it again
and again as / go on with my story.
And that is
Any woman can be exactly what she
wishes to be. Her fate lies in her own
hands. Circumstances over which size
has no control, may help or hinder
her; but in the end, what she Is, de.
ponds on what she wishes to be.
The power is in herself alone.
The period of realizing what l was,
then, began very early in the spring.
This seemed appropriate-Spring is
the time of rebirth. Nature renews its
youth-why not man and woman? But,
of course. I didn't think of anything
like that then.
Then, the coming of the spring
meant that we would let the coal fires
so out, and that was less work for me.
but also that we would plant the gar
den, and that meant more work for
me. 1t meant that l would eventually
put away my one black serge, which
had completed it's second winter OF
wear but also that l would bring out
my black linen, which would begin
its third summer of wear.
1t meant-well, practical things, III
tie, sordid, economical things. 1T
meant nothing romantic. In fact l
would not even have guessed it was
so near spring, had not Violet come
running in from school, swing ing her
coat, her hair flying loose. her hat In
her hand.

GALVESTON, Texas, Oct. 1S.-An
