A Young Hero,

While we saluting Sergeant Woodfll

US not forget to salute Lieutenant William NJ
Williams, aged IS. and who returned to active
duty during the great war and did his duty
Oldest member Of the American Legion. He
went from Washington to Kansas City to at
tend the legion convention, took a strenuous
part in the proceedings, went to his chow with
a good appetite three times a day, answered
reVeille. and now has gone back to Washington
to keep going usefully until he rounds out
century OF service. In the Civil days Viii
Indiana outfit. Later he entered the medical
corps of the regular army but he was injured
and was retired for disability in line of duty.
He came back strong in the Spanish war and
served through that conflict. Twenty years
after he appeared before the secretary of war
TO work. He denied. He appeared the
next day and repeated his demand They put
him to work and he did it like the youngster
he is until the war ended Not long ago Lieu
tenant Williams went to the Walter Reed hos
pital in Washington TO undergo operation.
He was 81 years old. A friend called on him.
The patient turned TO his friend and said
Jim. I thought l would come here for an op-

life with this thing hanging over me-" We
believe that the first recruit TO offer his serv-
ices in the next will be William NJ. Will

The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1921-11-16

Hylan. Democrat, mayor, by greatly in
creased majority and the Democrats have made
gains in the New York assembly and In va
rious cities and local elections In that state
and Connecticut.
Democratic rejoicing over these of-year
victories Is like carrying Goals to Newcastle.
Some of their children have come home and
some of the Republican boys and girls were
truants and felt no special interest in the con-
tests. The effect will be to hearten the Demo-
Gratis and enable them to hold their party to-
gether in good morale. and the Republicans
will realize that 70 hold fast their triumph in
1920 they must keep up their organization and
be ready for the congressional elections Of
1922. The recent elections are object lessons.
The Republicans will do well to study them.
The Democrats remembering the history of
political parties in the United States since the
Civil war, may prudently be on their guard
against undue elation at this time and over
confidence in the future.

Well-Nourished Children.

Commenting on the fact that recent sur
vey in Detroit showed that foreign children
were better nourished than children of native
parents, a paragrapher says Sometimes we
get little light why Americanization is
such hard work The children in the foreign
quarter may be unwashed and poorly clothed,
but somehow they thrive. The investigators
find, too, that there is great mystery about
it They thrive mainly because they are fed
on plain, simple food.
The same situation is found in the humber
native homes compared with the homes of
the better class. The poor children. IN
Detroit and other cities where the matter has
been looked into, are actually better nourished
than the rich children, because rich children
usually get rich food. and that is not good for
children. It is the old story of Daniel and his
young friends. who lived on pulse" and wa
ter, and were found fatter in flesh than the
children of the Babylonians
