Americanism was written in bold
letters across the pages of Keokuk's
history Saturday afternoon.
A parade over twenty-five blocks;
long was the challenge flung to radi-
Americans. The citizens of the flu
ture, the school children of today,
furnished the outstanding feature of
the parade which was declared by
everyone to have been the finest thing
ever done in Keokuk, war time pa
rades and Red Cross rallies not ex-
cepted.

proudly in autoplobiles, one hundred
cars having been furnished by Keokuk
auto owners and garages to carry the
youngsters. Not only the kindergar-

pupils rode in style. Everyone of
them carried flag. These automo-

each school headed the school dele

about 8 o'clock at her apartment IN
the Greenway, Charles street, Balti-
more, after an illness of a week.
though she had been in failing health
for some time.
Mrs. Miller. who was one Of the best
known women in Baltimore, and who,
in fact had national reputation as a
star writer on LesIie's Magazine, was
born in this city and lived on the cor
ner Of Carroll and Main street, and
was the daughter of the late Samuel
and Martha Dell Kneller, of this city
Her family was an American branch
of the English family of the famous
artist, Sir Godfrey Knefler. She, as
well as her husband, was a graduate
Of the Western Maryland College. Mrs
Miller early showed a facility with
her PEN and at one time had a brilli-
ant reputation in field in which she
was the only woman, that of baseball
correspondence, and gained a wide
spread reputation as one Of the best
in the country when that sport was at
its height
At the time of the SPANISH meri-
can war Mrs Miller kegan 10 do ex-
ceptionasly fine work with the CAM
era, and was invited ITO join Leslies
staff, IN this capacity she Travelled all
oyer the United States and Europe,
writing special articles and illustra5-
ing them with her own pictures, tax
en- on the spot. She attended several
national conventions Tor Leslie's, and
at once was made sergeant-at-arms
to facilitate her work, an Office never
before conferred on a woman She did
important work of this nature in the
various government departments and
was so thoroughly trusted that She
was given privileges allowed no 9TH
er correspondent. or photographer.
She was in Morocco at the time of the
war there with France and tack pho
tographs at Mel1ila on the firing line,
thus earning the distinction Of being
at that time the only woman war cor
in the world.
Another of her startling feats was (
her interviewing Of Villa at the time
of the trouble on the Mexican border,
when every other correspondent was
afraid to try such a perilous attempt
as to cross the border to seek the ban
dit himself. Her pictures were priced /
for their keen news value and with !,
her articles were widely copied.
Mrs Miller was woman of l1n-
usual personality and great original
ity of character, an extraordinarily +
and graphic conversation

Last year she and Mr.. Miller celebrat-
ed the twenty-fifth anniversary Of their
having been married in June
