SOLDIERS MIsJUoeED.

The American Legion has justly
complained because of the tendency
on the part of police officials and 9TH
ers to accuse the men in the service
and the eX-service men of crimes just
because the perpetrator of the offense
in question happened to be wearing an
army coat or hat or even an entire
o. D. uniform. II is a well known fact
that anybody can buy army clothing
at any number of surplus storehouses
and second hand shops. 1t is equal
~ well known that fully as many men
who never saw service are wearing
army overcoats, for example. as there
men who did see service wearing
them.
While the above mentioned condi-
ton exists in America, the American
Legion Weekly calls attention to a
similar and greater injustice being
done against the American soldier
abroad. The Weekly says:
american uniforms are being worn
unaltered by soldiers of several for
eign countries, some of which are en-
gagged in war, according to information
received from Americans in Poland.
to Poland after the armistice, makes
this statement of the circumstances
under which American o. d. has been
placed on the backs of Polish soldiers:
''From the various storehouses In
the A. u. +. enormous quantities of
uniform equipment We're withdrawn
and sold by the United States liqui-
dation board to the various small
countries which sprang up after the
armistice The ruling at first was that
the buttons should be removed and the
clothing re-dyed. For a very short
time this was done-until ithe claim
was. advanced that the dyes could not
be procured. Then the uniforms were
sold undyed and without any restrlc-
lions as to coloring, but the buttons

distinguished from A. E. f. troops
except on close observation. AS a con-
sequence, every time a crime was com
mitted by person in a u. s. A. uni
form, the foreign papers made a
great cry about the criminality among
American troops. Investigations al
most always developed that the cuI-
prits were not Americans.
The button shortage must have
become acute, for when thousands of
uniforms were being purchased by
Poland, the edict covering the re-
moval of buttons was removed, and
the U. S. a. uniforms, without altera-
tions and with the original buttons
were sent to equip Polish troops"

Revelations
of o. Wife
How Dr.. Petit Solved the Mystery of
Grace Draper's DeIirium.
av ADELE GARRISON.

How Dr.. Petit Solved the Mystery of
Grace Diapers DeIirium.
AS DR. Petit turned from Lillian
and me, when I had declared my in
tention of keeping my promise to stay
with Grace Draper until her death,
and strobe toward the bed where the
sick girl lay apparently raving in de-
lirium. l called out to him in horror.
ooh. Don't disturb that delirious
dying girl"
/ made an impetuous step forward
to try to stop him whep Lillian caught
my arm and whirIed me into a recess
of the alcove.
''You unsuspecting little idiot" she
said, giving me a tender little shake
that robbed the words of their harsh
ness, cant you see that the girl is
shamming?"
For a moment I could not compre
bend what she meant; then the full
truth burst upon me- IF what Lillian
said were true, if the girl We're pre-
tending delirHm that she might ut
ter words concerning Dicky's infatu-
alton for her which would torture me,
then it was more than probable, al
no word of truth in her pretended de-
lirious mutterings.
Dicky was not faithless to me, as I
had feared during the tortured mo-
ments in which had listened to the
girls rawlings.
The JOY of the sudden revelation
almost unnerved me. believe I would
have swooned and fallen had not Lii
liam caught me.
Listen she said in my ear, pinch
ing my arm almost cruelty to arouse
me, listen to what DR.. Petit is say
ing, and you'll Sc that I'm right"
My eyes followed hers to the bed
where DR.. Petit stood gazing down
upon the seemingly unconscious girl
and speaking in measured, merciless
fashion.
''This won't do, my girl" he was
saying, and his tone and manner of
address seemed in some subtle fashion
to strip all semblance of dignity from
the girl and leave her simply case"

lever long enough and strong enough
and with a place to stand, he could
lift the world.
It has been done.
Alexander the Great did it, and so
methods well known and often en-
ployed. They put the weight of their
personality on the end of a lever
whose weight was so many hundred
thousand men and the world moved.
The barons who confronted King
John did the same, and by methods
very different; and so did Washington,
and Lincoln, and Pershing They
placed the lever of their personality
under the inert lever of tradition and
prejudice and tyranny, and the world
moved.
Plato and Shakespeare and Milton
found each of them a precarious place
to stand, and they poised their weight
where it lifted the load that lay upon
the heart of the centuries.
The scales tell very little about the
weight of a man. AT sea level they
tell one story and on the mountain
top quite another; and it causes the
weight to change if he remove or put
on his overcoat. What kind of measure
shall we invent to show the lifting
power of this man, whether at sea-
level or on the mountain-top, as he
sits or stands with his skilled hands
on the machinery that operates a
steam shovel?
We cannot weigh men as We weigh
coal or sand Personality is a thing
of weight which no scales can meas
ure.
1t is the right of every man to find
the lever and the place to stand by
means of which he can weigh his full
moral value. The power to influence
other men, the power to change or
control events, the power to lift and
build, is the priceless possession Of per-
sonality.

Why the South Opposes

why tnG oOuIn IMPOSES
Protection.
If we Judge by the Associated Press
reports. that tariff congress that met
in Atlanta was not a farmers con-
gress but formers congress. All the
men from he south who had been in
politics delivered addresses ex-
cept one Fere former something or
other. We have already referred to
former Senator Mc-Laurin and how
he became a former senator. Former
Governor Cats later took a whack at
the proceedings and he became a for
mer without the assistance of the tar
Tiff question. 1t was not generally
known that he was a protectionist
and we are of the opinion that this
fact was not known to former Gov
ernor Cats until he was invited to
deliver an address before the tariff
congress and knew the kind of an
address that would be acceptable
there. But former Governor Cats had
other qualifications for changing
from a, governor to a former governor
from an official to a former Off
cial He didn't need the tariff to help
him commit political suicide.
So this convention was expected to
indicate a decided change of sentiment
in the south on the tariff question.
Governors of southern states were to
deliver addresses but it does not
seem, that any of them responded ex-
cept the Bull Moose governor of Lou
isiana. Representatives of chambers
of commerce were to be present, but
if any were present the Associated
Press failed to tell of their attendance.
1t was a convention of favor seekers
and political corpses and did not rep
resent the south. For it's southern
speakers it scratched in political
graveyards.
The gathering demanded a duty on
everything except cotton-which is
the principal product of the south and
the only great product peculiar to the
south. OF course it would have been
folly to propose a duty on cotton, but
We are surprised that one was not
proposed notwithstanding A duty on
upland cotton would be no more ride
ulous than one on oranges or on many
other southern products.
But those who wonder that the
south remains democratic and refuses
to divide on the tariff question might
find a pretty good explanation in this
exception if they would take a look
at it. Here is the biggest product of
the south that even the most extreme
protection cranks admit could not be
protested, and it is not strange that
the men who produce it and sell it in
the cheapest market should object to
buy it back in the shape of cloth in
the dearest market. The south sells
comparatively little of its surplus
products in the United States. 1t sells
the greater part of it's surplus pro-
ducts in foreign markets where tar
if cannot add a dollar to their value.

Adventures of

berg (the roof, really, as the iceberg
was a castle). A little stairway led
into a room below and the twins lost
no time in climbing down. To their
surprise the bear followed, the stairs
creaking and groaning loudly under
his great, bulky weight. He closed
the trap door carefully behind him, to
the twins great relief, for Outsode

Nancy hadn't heard and neither had
the polar bear, who ~vas busily taking

ship of war remained as the master OF

was prophesied that they would drive
the big ships from the seas, but big

and still are the backbone of the
navy.
There is no doubt that the airships
are important factors in war and will
become more important, but they will
no more displace the battleship as the
final influence in the control of the
seas than artillery and tanks have
displaced infantry as the final word
in army power.
Each separate arm Of the service is
important, but when the final reck-
oning is made in every war it has
been found that the infantry and the
battleships have held the balance.

Institutions of Education
Deserve Florida's Support.

OF all appeals that should reach
the heart of the public quickest and
with greatest force, the cause of edu-
cation holds first place. The prepara-
tion of our youth for higher, better
citizenship is the most vital factor
in the life Of any state.
During the past five years our
colleges and higher institutions of
learning have been taxed to the ut
most to meet the ever increasing de-
mands made upon them. With the ris-
ing cost of all items that go into col
lege work has come the wonderful in
crease in the number of students seek
ing a higher education. The absolute
necessity for sufficient endowments
to meet the needs of students and
faculty alike has been impressed upon
every college in the country.
Beginning this week and extending
through until February %, Rollins
college at Winter Park will complete
its efforts to obtain a half million dol
lars on an endowment fund that will
eventually reach a round million. A
noble patron of education, and one of
the most helpful of Florida winter res
idents, Mr.. Charles H. Morse, has Of
fered a hundred thousand dollars of
this amount contingent upon the ball
ance being raised by Washington's
birthday.
