A DESERVING LEADER.

Among the large number of Colored
men who rendered yoeman service to
the party in the recent campaign none
stands out with more prominence or
were more active in their efforts for
Republican success than Prof. G. A.
Page, proprietor of the we'll know
Shoe Store at 1907 f. 18th street.
While living in the Eighth Ward Prof.
Pages activities were not confined to
that territory but in all sections of
the City where our people lived, he
was found holding conferences, work
ing up enthusiasm, urging loyalty and
doing everything possible to inspire
our men and women to assist in roll
ing up this splendid majority that
brought victory to our party. The
Sun is proud of Prof. Page and his
earnest devotion to the principals of
the party and firmly believe that
when the appointments to office are
made, he should be among those rec
ognized for faithful service. By edu.
cation, training and ability he is fit
ted for any place in Jackson county
that requires a high class capable
educated man. We're for Page.

ORANGE MEANT LIFE TO HIM
Aided In Putting Him on Road
to Recovery.

The Importance Of little things
which go to make up the sum Of hui
man happiness has been forcefully
brought out during the recent war
experiences. W. are apt to grow care
less in the busy rush Of everyday life
and to neglect many things which.
while seeming trivial. may mean
even life to some one.
In an issue of the Modern Hos
pital an instance is cited which
shows The Importance Of small
things. According to the Red Cross
nurses, sick soldiers are not unlike
sick children. and gratifying their
little whims does a great deal TO put
them OF the road to recovery. Be-
cause of this, every effort a made
to supply even the most trifling
things which the soldiers expressed q
wish for. The case in point was that
Of a buddy who in his feverish con-
dition craved an acid fruit. Fruit
was hard to secure, but after what
seemed almost insurmountable diff
c%ulties, Z big, juicy orange was
placed in his eager hands. The small
supply procurable lasted until his
recovery was assured, and con-
tributed not 4 little to that much
desired end.

USING SPECS AS ORNAMENTS
eewevaiess Soldiers IN Francs
Been Keeping the Paris ops'c'a"s
Exceedingly Busy.

Those whom fate has condemned
to wear spectacles may have come
difficulty in believing that anyone
could regard these articles as orna
ments, to be worn with pride ana
pleasure. This, however, remarks .
writer in the Continental edition OF
the London Mail, is nevertheless the
case with many vi the Senesaiess
soldiers who fought in the war.
While on leave in Paris on their
way home, many Of these gallant
warriors have invested in speetacles
q the surest means of impresslDg
their compatriots.
An optician relates that when ne
tried to sell a pair of spectacles with
plain glass to a Senegalese whose
sight was obviously excellent, the
soldier complained that they we're no
good because they did not make
everything look funny" The oP-
tician Immediately supplied the soi-
der with a pair of concave lenses
that would have done very well for 9
short-sighted student. The customer
was satisfied at once, paid, and went
out, colliding on the way with vari-
ous pieces of furniture.
