''Long In time and short In impor'
tance' Is the way Mr.. Hughes de-
scribes his military career. AS mat
ter of fact he was fairly important
soldier. He started as private In
the Seventh regiment In 1897. Ten
years later he was offered lieuten-
ant colonelcy, which he did not ac-
cept. He served on the Mexican bor-
der as captain, and only deafness
kept him from service abroad during
the World war. During the raising
of troops In New York he served as
adjutant general, where his deafness
was an asset rather than liability
with the pacifsts footing their tin
whistles, and then he became cap
tain in the Intelligence service, being
Just as intelligent when deaf as when
sharp Of hearing.

wrote, because I believe In Its prin-
ciples and believe 1t to be one Of the
most important organizations In the
