If then, Governor Trinkle

shall have made the COVER
norship of Virginia what we
believe he will make it. If
he shall have turned the eyes
of the nation upon the Old
Dominion as he writes a new
chapter in state government
as did a certain Virginia
city in municipal govern
ment-he is certain to be
looked upon as a presidential
possibility.
We have another reason
for believing this-We could
not call it an argument since
it is purely personal. There
are certain men, from time
to time appearing on the
political horizon, who seem
to bear the impress of a
destiny working from with
out. Who seem to be, not the
creatures Of fate precisely,
but of certain invisible
forces beyond their ken or
control. They may be said
to be possessed Of the Spirit
of the Times that through
them works upon their fell
loW-men. We are of the i'm
preston, from what we have
seen and know of Lee Trim
kle, that he is one Of these
men Of destiny. If he shall
serve two terms as governor
of Virginia, and reform
state government, we shall
be convinced Of the COR
rectness of our theory.
By that time, as we
have said, geographic lines
will cease to be drawn
in a presidential campaign.
The country will look to the
man and not to the state. It
will consult biography and
not geography.
Virginia has the breed to
produce the man. That is be-
yond cavil. And in our
opinion Lee Trinkle is of
that breed.

VIRGINIA:
MOTHER OF PRESIDENTS

Once, in the history OF
Virginia, she was known as
the mother of presidents"
The first and greatest was
bone of her bone and flesh
of her flesh. Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe, Harrison,
Tyler, Taylor, Wilson, all,
are claimed by her as native
to her soil. A list greater
than that of any other state!
We are loath to believe that
the blood of the Old
Dominion has deteriorated.
That the breed that has fur
nished this great Republic
with 50 many Of its chief
executives has died out. In
fact, we do not believe it!
Unless we are greatly mis-
taken, there is a young man,
now looming large on the
political horizon, who is OF
the right presidential stuff.
A young man, who, thus far
tried, has not been found
wanting. Who is Of the best
Virginia stock; and by this,
we do not mean necessarily
of a distinguished ancestry,
noted in the annals of the
Commonwealth for many
generations past-but rath-
er of the selfsame country
squirearchy that gave to the
nation its W >tshington, its
Jefferson, and and it's Mar
shall. This is, and always
has been, the best blood in
the state. We would go
still further, and say that
while no great name IN
American history has ever
claimed descent from the
British aristocracy, or from
any ariStocracy; and while a
very few have arisen from
the humblest of origins-the
great majority have come
from what we choose to call
the country squirearchy-
whether north or south or
east or west! This is the
class which made England
great: and from this class
have been drawn those who
have made American history
glorious.
We are Of the opinion that
so far as the United States
is concerned the lines of latl-
tulde and longitude were
largely erased from the po-
litical map by the late world
wal. They began to disap-
pear il the Spanish-Amerl-
can conflict; and when an
other decade shall have roll
ed around, we believe they
will have entirely dis
appeared

WHAT SCOUTS ARE DOING.

In Kansas City boy scouts annually
participate in the sanitary survey OF

throughout the entire city. Similar
service is being rendered in many
other cities by scouts.
Among other things, Erie, Pa-

SOME LIVE EAGLES

Troop 10 of Buffalo has passed its
ten-year mark and still going stron-
ger" One of the most interesting feat
ures of its organization is it's Eagle
Life patrol, into which regular troop
members graduate on reaching the age
of seventeen or on going away to col
lege. These Eagle Life members meet
quarterly and have their own officers,
organization and constitution, but they
also meet with the troop and partiei-
pate, at least three times a year, in
common program Troop 15 has sew
eral big ideas" One of these is con-
tanned in its slogan. college for ALL"
AT present the troop has II boys in
college, nine Of whom declare that
they would not have gone to college
If it had not been for the influence of
Troop Is. Scholarships amounting to
several thousand dollars have been Sc
cured through the Eagle scholarship
bureau.
Other Eagle departments are a voca-
tional bureau, now in its seventh year,
which has filled real need and been
remarkably successful, travel bureau,
which keeps records of journeys. with
pictures and data, for the benefit of
Eagles or their relatives travelling and
the Eagle Troop development, estab-
lished in 1917, which works through
the individual Eagle keeping him ac-
tive and interested in scouting. Some
of the results of this service are: One
Eagle a scoutmaster, three Eagles (two
of them members of the American
Legion) all assistant scoutmasters of
Troop Is, five Eagles, assistant scout
masters In their respective college
town, and another, an assistant scout
master in the city in which he works
An extension educational scheme is
also another bright idea of the enter
prising Eagles, a plan which looks to
the encouragement of every Eagle to
continue to study after graduation,
and in general to enlarge his vision
and keep his standards high. Certain
annual honors are awarded the Eagles
at their June meetiag. For instance,
the Eagle Feather is awarded the
Eagle who has done the most worth
while work in literature during the
year. The Eagle Heart is awarded
that Eagle who has done the most
during the year to aid in growth and
progress of Troop Is. The White
Eagle is awarded the Eagle who, out
in the world, best upholds the ideals
of Troop 10 and the Boy Scouts of
America generally for service.

SCOUTS BUILD MOTOR TRUCK.

A scout is ingenious. If anybody
doubts it, let him look at the motor
truck which some thrifty boy scouts
out in Maxwell, Iowa, have recently
built out of junked automobiles, with
the addition of a damaged stationary
engine which they got at a bargain
The car makes only ten miles an
hour but it can and does carry big
load of boys and their duffel when
they wish to convey themselves to
camp and elsewhere. The hand-built
car recently made the trip to the
state fair with its owners where II

fighting proceeded over a front of
mile before the natives surrendered.
The total casualties were more than
$50.
The natives had seized large tract
of ground at Bullock where they built
$50 huts. They called this "holy
ground" and refused to recognize the
authority of the South African govern

to withdraw the leaders replied they
would not do so until Jehovah told
them to CO."

adopted the Borah amendment to the
time was opposed by the administra-
tion, and there is little doubt that the
house will accept, its inclusion in the

and building programs of the three
nations shall be substantially reduced

1t is believed President Harding will
issue the call for the conference at an
early date after the navy bill becomes
law.
The senate rejected the plan of the
naval affairs committee for the estab-
lishment of navy base at Alameda,
in San Francisco bay, to cost $10O, O,0OO,-
600. the opposition including several
senators who asserted the plan was a
real estate deal. Later the regulars
regained control and the committees
amendment providing for an enlist
/ ment strength of 10000 for the navy
was adopted. The house bill reduced
the number to 100000. Altogether the
senate bill carries about $100,000,OO0
more than the house measure, and it
may be tied up in conference for some
time. One feature that may cause de-
lay is the restoration of the appropria-
ton for the navy yard at Charleston,
s. c. This apparently induced many
Southern senators to vote for the in
crease in enlisted strength.

Serious riots broke out in Alexan-
dria, Egypt, and before the British
soldiers gained control of the situation
there were many casualties. The ma
tives attacked especially the English
people, but the lives of all foreigners
were in peril. English correspondents
there say the riots were instigated by
paid agents and were not an express
sion of political feeling on the part of
the populace. Nevertheless, there is
serious trouble impending in Egypt,
and it is reported that hundreds of
Bedouins are gathering at Ramleh to
take part in general revolutionary
uprising.

Intense and general interest was
aroused by the attempt of American
golfers to carry off the British anna
teur championship in the tournament
at Hoylake, Liverpool. An excellent
team went across for the purpose. and
in the preliminary foursomes and in
dividual matches it made fine show
ing. But in the tournament those
young experts, Evans, Jones. Ouimet
and the rest, went down one after an
other. Only one lasted to the sixth
round-Frederick j. Wright of Bos-
ton, who had been considered perhaps
the weakest man on the team.
