SIS Of 1880 have risen from below 90 to

out that that advance has been due to

in exchange for the old As, which carried

JOHN QUINCY ADAMS

TIE chieftainship of every great
 | nation still passed from father to son until the presidency of the United States was created, when the hrst free-for-all race and an even start for the highest prize was opened to the sons Of men regardless of the accidents of birth. Tn this fair test, new blood has won every time with only two ex- ception in a century and quarter.
 Even John Quincy Adams did not win the race, but was outrun at the polls by Andrew Jackson, the son Of an immigrant. Political parties hay- ing disappeared in 1924, four men en- tered the contest and deadlocked the electoral college, which left the house of representatives to choose from among the three highest candidates. This eliminated the fourth man-Hen- " Clay-wbo aided in the election or Adams and who received from the new president the appointment of secretary of state.
 The only non-partisan administra- ton the country ever has had was not a shining example of success. Uncom- promising, alone, John Quincy Adams stalked his solitary way, never once turning to the right or to the left from the strait and narrow path of indepen- dence. With no sense of humor to re- lieve his sense of self-righteousness. to light up his view of his fellows or to thaw his own icy virtues, 1t was im- possible for his supporters to feel any enthusiasm for him.
 John Quincy Adams led the simple life in the White House. GettiI up at 5, he built his fire, read his daily portion of the Bible and while the

EOR genuine resourcefulness and 1T initiative the American bluejacket has no equal the world over. Give him half chance, the skinniest hint of an idea, and you'll get more action than two-tailed comet.
 Smokers prove 1t. The fleet has them Saturday nights now and then. They're like stag parties ashore In way. But think of a thousand stags and half a thousand guests Picture them young and vigorous. and curbing the ardor of their spirits by the same strength of restraint that gives them to fight like men.
 The band plays and the movies move, and the Irish bosun warbles his seagoing best. Up goes tremenjus roar. "The heavyweight champeen or the North Atlantic fleet 1" bellows an official announcer. Follow six vicious rounds in a tarred rope circle, decks sanded for blood as of old.
 But it's most fun to trsde with an- other nation. In Cherbourg some years ago ten tarry Poilus visited the flagship as a committee to invite the crews of American men-of-war to Christmas celebration ashore.
 There was no volunteering. All hands knew the fun to come. Lots had to be drawn. On the gala night two hundred husky descendants of La fayette's "cheres amis' lined the Cher bourg quay and lockstepped up to the town hall.
 A giant Christmas tree stood at one end. Consultations of colored candles sparkled through It's branches from top to bottom. Under each candle hung package, one gift for each guest.
 "S-h-h-h." A French host held up his hand. Dear friends, 1t Is beauti- ful this night that you should be joy ful with us. Now" pointing gracefully toward the tree, shall we have the presents"
 The brief speech was well said. But unfortunately it was in French. a language not commonly spoken in our great navy. And unfortunately one of them started forward.
 Instant action resulted. The Yankees charged. They swept the tree from its moorings. They swept 1t through the great halls after window, in roar ing rolicking mob they swept 1t down the street and into their waiting boats.
 Call 1t rude and rowdy. Sniff and turn away. You're wrong That was the grandest example of resource and initiative some of us will ever know.

government clerks still slept, he took his walk or swim.
 John Quincy Adams alone has solved the problem of ex-presdents. He forgot that he had been president at all and went to work like any other citizen.
 With his houses in Quincy and Bos- ton mortgaged and the income from his estate too slender for the support of his family, John Quincy Adams heard the bark of the wolf at hes door as in his gloomy fancy he closed 1t upon public life in his sixty-second year. When some neighbors ventured to ask the next year If 1t would be be- heath his dignity to represent the old Plymouth Rock district In congress, this great American. who had been a senator, a minister at the courts of The Hague, Berlin. St. Petersburg and London. secretary of state and a president, replied that he was not above serving the people as one of the selectmen of his town.
 Washington was aghast at the sight of an ex-president taking his seat in the hurly-burly of the lower house only. two years after leaving the White House. Without joining the Democrats or the Whigs, with no fac tion about him. John Quincy Adams faced alone the Jackson administration which had supplanted his own and alone he met swarm of his Old-time critics on level. Under his incessant pounding, the majority against the right of petition fell session by ses- sion until 1t disappeared entirely in 1s44. He had won his long fight against the gag rule and his diary Is lit up with his rejoicing in victory
 His life was crowned. His work was done Still he labored on. Although he fell in a Boston street under d stroke of paralysis, he insisted upon returning to hi1 duties in congress. where the members stood as he en- tered the hall and cheered him on his way to his seat. A year afterward, as he seemed, about to rise to address the speaker. he suddenly pitched for ward upon the floor
 The veteran had been mortally stricken on the field. Although he lin gered two days, he was not emoved from the capitol, but remained in little room off the old hall of the house. There. still at his post, died this old and devoted servant of his country. 4

VOHN PAUL, don't they mean?" said J everyone when the U. s. s. Jacob Jones was sunk.
 No. there was no mistake. This destroyer was named after another naval hero nearly generation young CT than the illustrious founder of our navy.
 "JIggy," as our friends are said to have called him, had an extraordinary career. His education was unique in that he began as doctor, shifted to law, and finally showed his good sense by joining the navy.
 He was first heard of near Smyrna. Delaware, in 176S where his feverish father was prancing up and down the front porch taking two to one money on .Iake's being twins or girl
 After 31 years of the hardshlps of civil life he entered naval life as a mldshlpman. His first ship was the frigate United States on which he served in the French war and learned how to dodge cannon balls and scurvy.
 In 1903 he transferred to the Phil adelphia in time to get in the Barbary pirates row. Ignominously the vessel grounded in the harbor of Tripoli and Jlggy became a prisoner of war.
 After 20 months In the jug he was released. On his return and after he had blown Tn all the money he had on the books, he put in placid cruise in southern waters on the "Adams" and on the "Argus."
 In 1910 be became skipper of the Wasp" First crack out of the box he captured the brig Dolphin" and not long afterward the British war ship "Frolic." The latter engagement was pretty much of a brawl and Jig gy's ship got all cut up. But as luck would have 1t the enemy's 74-gun "Poietiers" butted in at this moment and captured our hero and his cap tives as we'll
 He was paroed in Bermuda where he put on great deal of flesh while waiting for a chance to make some more history.
 For some years afterward he fooled about with several big ships without having any great opportunity to dis tingush himself, Finally he took the Macedonian to the Mediterranean but was captured by an Algerine brig and for the fourth time cast into a dungeon.
 After peace was declared he com. manded the Mediterranean squadron. ran q navy yard, and had other mis- celaneous jobs. He topped off by be- ing commandant of the naval asylum fin Philadelphia. which was the most miscellaneous job of all.
 He died in 1852 at the age of S2 and was buried with appropriate hon. ors in the Brandywine cemetery. Will mington.
