Shot Go True by Remarka-

MOUSE IS CAUSE or IT ALL
Champ Hurls Ball at Fleeing Rodent
Misses, Ball Rebounds, Hitting
Waiter, Who Drops Tray and
That Ends Mouse.

ChNsgo.-Seated about table at
dinner In a loop restaurant recently,
three Hammond residents carried OH
an animated conversation abtur golf.
Earlier the talk had dealt with ami
mails, Artificial Ice and Admiral Sims
speech. bu. had veered around due to
a sincere effort on the part of two
women present to please their male
escort, Freddie Beckman, champion
anatSur golfer Of Hammond.
Since this story deals particularly
with Freddy, 1t must be understood
he has several laudable Characters
tics and accomplishments. Beckman
REALLY is good golfer. Back In civil
iSation he Is at disadvantage be-
cause of his acute bashfulness, but
this afiliction Is remedied for him In
circumstances demanding instant ac-
tion.
Beckman was very polite and nod
died briskly whenever he was appealed
to during the golf discussion, but Sig
nnlly failed to register enthusiasm.
Golf Ball to Rescue.
1t was just after the conversation
had swung back to animals that Beck
mans moment came. His companions,
Mrs. Elene Meyn and IL. NJ" had just
finished their dessert when an uproar
arose near the band.
A woman shrieked and another and
. third. AS one person, patrons of
that entire end Of the restaurant rose
TO their feet and mounted chairs.
IT'S mouse and coming this way"
cried Mrs. Meyn to Freddy.
There was no question it was a Sec
oh& just made for the amateur golf
chimp Of Hammond. His hand stole
into his coat packet and brought out
a golf ball. 1t was one he had made a
hole In Il" with just the day before,
and he was keeping 1t as souvenir
Balancing the ball In his hand, he
gazed earnestly at the fleeing rodent,
headed straight for him. Then he
swung his arm in long underhand
stroke and let the ball fly.
1t flew across the ten feet of space
between Freddy and the mouse with
u swish. Perhaps the mouse moved a
trifle or maybe the ball was not ex-
actly round--at any rate, the shot
missed by hair.
Gets the Rodent.
A gasp went up, and ended In a
shout OF wild laughter, for the ball.

"The Octobrists," the letter adds,
meaning by them those communists
who participated in the October (1917)
revolution, "are frequently sending
their families abroad. Soon, 1t may
be. shall send my wife across to you,
in which case try to put her up as

Referring to the political situation,
this communist wrote: "Illitch (mean-
ing Lenin, that being, his middle name
by which he Is popularity known in
Russia) Is weakening. Zinovieff has
grown too fat. Trotzky alone re.
mains as of old the unrecognized Ma
poleon, but he is 'evolutionizing' ALSO"
In connection with the sending
abroad of the families Of the Oc-
tobrists, this letter goes on:

"Bring to Switzerland third Of the

rest can be left In Germany for any

The writer constantly refers to the
ruling councils of the Bolsheviki as
"the Olympians," and remarks that
"our Olympus is going the pace toe
fast"
"From January" he says, "the stu.

LYRICS OF LIFE
By DOUGLAS MALLocH /
OUR ONLY DOUBT.


HOWEVER far the birds you
Away from you may wing,
Whatever wintry winds may blow,
You do not doubt the spring;
At night you do not doubt the dawn
Because the day Is done
You know the spring will bring the
lawn,
The morning bring the sun.
As old as Is experience,
AS trite as truth can be,
This lesson knovn to every sense t
And taught by bird and tree
And yet tale we must repeat
Each scholar, anger, priest.
For men who see the sun retreat
Forget there is an East.
In sorrows winter men forget,
In troubles hour OF night,
That spring shall come returning yst
70 life the morning light.
They do not doubt the dawn, the days
The Spring, the sun, the sod
They do not question: Nature hey
Doubt only Natures Gou.

HOW CAN A MAN LEARN?

AIR. GARRETT p, SERvISS. who
lVl made himself out of a newspa
per man into a scientist, tells how he
recently received letter from sec.
tion hand on railroad who related
how he had taught himself astronomy
and Latin because he was interested
in the stars and the poet Virgil.
This man. who described himself al
"upeducated" made the curious re-
mark, II have found that l can learn
anything that gives me pleasure"
That throws bright light on the
whole subject Of education.
At this time Of the year when the
universities are turning out their
graduates by the thousands the ques-
ton of training naturally arises in the
minds of those who have sons and
daughters to prepare for the future.
Is II possible that the case of Mr..
Serviss' section hand, who found In.
tellectual salvation for himself, and
by himself, Is no different from that
of many who had all the advantages
Of the higher educationT For their
education only really began when
they left college.
Charles Darwin, the greatest man of
science Of his age, regarded the time
that he had spent at the university as
wasted.
Herbert Spencer was all his life a
solitary investigator and thinker.
Thomas Henry Hanley had to
abandon his university work and earn
his living after he had passed the
first medical examination of the uni
versity Of London.
John Tyndall educated himself in
science as member of the ordinance
survey.
What is the explanation of the
careers of these four distinguished
men? Obviously 1t is this. that they
found 1t easy, as the section hand did
to learn anything that gave them
pleasure. Much education is wasted
because men take no pleasure in 1t.

Picturesque feudal ceremonies of 600
years ago were revived here when the
prince of Wales, who is also duke Of
Cornwall, paid visit to the old-time

1886.
The ceremonies included the presen-

In kind, according to ancient custom.
The mayor presented to the prince 100
shillings and one pound of pepper on
silver dish.
To Sir Hugh Molesworth ST. Aubyn

they should be pure white, but the
