forced immediate attention much as
the rack and thumbscrew must have
rivited the victims attention upon en-
tering the torture chambers of old.
l now realized what had made me
hesitate as I entered. 1t was the fam
Gus bath tub, huge in proportion, and
unusual in design, already filled with
water, and occupying the center of the
room.
Although it was still early afternoon
Mackall was apparently tired, and the
tub was being prepared to receive him
once more, as it had every night thru
three terrible years. There, immersed
in the tepid water, and lying upon
floats and other cunningly arranged
devices, he could find sleep-and only
there.
I turned with an involuntary shud-
der from the tub, and sat down rather
suddenly in a chair beside his bed.
Mackall was unbelieveably thin from
the operations and constant suffering
he had endurde during the four vcars
which had dragged by since his hopes
were blasted in No Mans Land, but he
extended a hand, and asked me if I
smoked.
For some reason this question added
to my discomfort, and I n~ervously
fumbled for a cigarette. Although
that terrible tub was behind me-, It
continued to distract my attention as
if it had a personality. I came to al
most with a start, and attempted to
awaken my reporters instinct by siz-
ing up Mackall's appearance as he lay
before me face down on the bed. /
saw a face thin and lined with suffer-
ing, and serious blue eyes, which must
have been merry once, set off by a
thick shock of bright red hair. lie
spoke scarcely above a whisper.
His Place Not Attire.
"Well, how about the fire, did you
get burned any," l asked.
"Why, no." he said slowly, as if Civ
ing the question mature consideration.
"Why, no. There was a lot Of bunk
printed in the papers this morning
about what happened to me during the
fire, but there's nothing to it. My
place didn't catch fire" The papers
had told how when all had been re-
moved to safety except Mackall, that
instead of showing concern, he had
joked with his attendants as the
flames crept nearer.
"Were you afraid?" I asked, CROP
ing for some object with which to get
him talking easily. 1 felt like a cub
reporter on his first important as
signment.
"Why, no." he replied with an at
tempted smile. "Why should l have
been afraid?" And then perceiving
that l had read the feeling in his
heart, he added hastily, "there was nc
danger for me, you know. This house
never v caught fire."
"How are you being treated here ?
Are you getting everything you
want?" was my next venture. l was
obscessed by the nearness of that aw'
full tub.
II can't complain" he said. "Every.
thing is Being done for me that car
be done, I'm sure. I'm getting gooc
treatment, and I guess I see as many
visitors Is is good for me. No, I have
MT any complaint to make at ALL"

Aackall was holding an unlightet
cigarette between his bony discoloret
fingers. Rejecting my offer, he wig
gled his arms in position to strike (
match. He took several puffs will

Mackall died a short time after I
talked to him, and imagine my inter-
view was the last he ever gave. His
funeral was quite an event. President
and Mrs. Harding sent flowers, the
body lay in state for "a hours, and
hundreds of ~Legionnaires and other
veterans turned out to do him honor.
A firing squad fired three rounds over
his grave, and a bugler sounded taps,
"good night to the brave"
But Mackall's soul goes marching on.
And his buddies will take up the torch
which he let fall, and will continue to
prove the falsity of the newly-coined
phrase, "Few there are, indeed, who
have particular concern"

1t may be trite but it Is e~verlastinely
true that the home is the cornerstone
of our civilization. Better homes,
moro attractive homes, homes whose
occupants will find true refreshment
and real inspiration to increased ef-
forts for education and culture-such
homes : the ones which assure
greatest stability to our institutions,
greatest security to our society.
cannot cut feel that the effort you are
making is one which deserves a
wider projection and I would be glad
if your example might presently be
an inspiration to a nationwide enter
prise of the same kind"
The idea back Of the Better Homes
Week" movement is to educate the
American people to make the home
beautiful and thereby create a home
environment hat will have a lasting
cultural influence upon the nation
1t is planned during the week gel
aside for the purpose to demonstrate

rooms and homes in towns and cities
throughout the country the facility
with. which even people of small
means may make their homes har.
monious and attractive with artistic
furniture, draperies. rugs and ap'

Sanlt Ste. Marie Becomes
Scene Of Activity When
Ships Start Trips.

Sault Ste. Marie, Mich.-With the
opening of navigation for the 1922
season this city, at which is located
the 500 locks, among the finest and
best equipped in the coantry, has be-
onh a scene of great activity. Indi-
cations point. shipping men say, to a
decided increase in marine activity
over that OF last year, a dull season
due to business depression. Although
noEsuch condition Is expected as re-
suited during the war period, when
t~heItonnage passing through h locks
broke all records, a decided increase
over Last season confidently is pre-
dfcted. The. freight tonnage on YES
sells locking through in 1921 aggre-
gated but ~4e.z59,24 short tons, against
79..7S2,4 S6 short tons for the proceed
ing q The 1921 total vas the
smallest in more than a decade, the
season being described by shipping
men generally as the most dull, from
a business standpoint, in the recent
history of the lakes.
The season of 1916 established a
record in freight shipments. $685.
219 short tons passing through the
locke. ss
All figures include the traffic for
both Sault. Ste. Marie, Mich, and
Sault Ste. Marie, Ont, locks being
built on either side of the border.
The Michigan locks enable lake
vessels to pass the rapids in st.
but slight delay from the lower lakes
to Lake Superior, or vice versa. One
hundred steamers ASS through the
looks each day during a normal
eason
Built First Canal.
The state Of Michigan built the first
ship canal here, completing the pro-
ject in 1853. 1t consisted of two
locks, arranged tandem, each with a
lift OF nine feet.
Then came the Weitzel lock, SIS
feet long, completed by the United
States government in 1881. In the
anne year the government assumed
control OF the entire project.
AT tina time nationally prominent
engineers visiting the 500. declared
the Weitzel lock would be large
enough to handle h greatest boats
e built on the lakes. Now the
Weitzel is too small for 90 pei cent
of the traffic and is used as a repair
basin or dry dock. =
Completed in 1895.
The Poe lock, 800 feet long and
100 feet wide. was completed in 1895.
1850 feet long and 80 feet wide, and
the Sabin lock of the same di-
mansions as the Davis.
The lock across the river in On
tario is Of about the same size as the
Poe. Vessels may be locked through
the 500 in rs minutes.
The American lock- are surrounded
by "a beautiful government, park,
largely designed by l.. c. Sabin, resi-
dent engineer in charge, who built
the tSabin and Davis locks.
The traffic through the locks in
1920 was three times the amount
passing the Suez canal. More freight
passed here in October. 1920, than
went through the Panama canal for
the entire year.
The cost Of operating and caring
for the st. Mary's canal and locks in
1890 was $164,00o, which amounted
tos-less than three mills on each ton
Of.freight. No charge is made by
the government for the locking
