The Home Circle Column.

The gleeful laugh of happy
children is the best home music,
and the graceful figures the best
statuary. We are all kings and
queens in the cradle and each
babe il new marvel a new
miracle. The unaffected lamen
tations when he lifts up his voice
ON high, or more beautiful, the
sobbing child the face all liquid
grief, as he tries to swallow his
vexation soften all hearts to
pity, and to mirthful and clam
orous compassion. The small
deposit asks so little that all
reasons and all nature are on his
side. His ignorance is more
charming than all knowledge,
and his little sins more bewitch
ing than virtue. His flesh is
angels flesh alive.
We are not all born with the
sunshine in our hearts, as the
Irish people prettily term it, but
we ran all coax some of then
there If we only try.
See tae bright things, pass
the somber things and do the
right things. Peggy

AIIiteration.

ALTERATION occurs sometimes in the
writings OF the ancients, but not. 1t is
supposed, designedly. as they regard
ed all echoing of sound as a rhetorical
blemish. Cicero, in the "Offices," has
this phrase: "Sensim sine sensu aetas
senescit;;" and Virgil In the "Ae-
neid." has many marked alterations.

Sa Henry Hud-
sons voyage in his little boat,
the Half Moon, up the river
, which now bears his name. For
at that early date an Italian
, navigator, Verrazano, exploring
, for France, sailed into New
York bay. This first visit to .
New York made little stir and
was soon forgotten, and II was
Hudson's redlscovery which
tempted the Dutch to send over
cOlOnists and obtain for the
Dutch West India company a
monopoly of the Dutch fur trade
In America. The new colony
which was started In 1923 called
Its territory New Netherlands,
after Its mother country, and
their principal city New Amster-
dam. II Is interesting to reflect
that Manhattan island, which Is
now New York city, was pur-
chased from the Indians for S24
worth Of beads and ribbons.
Even In its earliest days the set
tlement on Manhattan Island
was cosmopolitan. In 1643 II is ,
reported that eighteen different :
languages were spoken there.
In 1864 the English captured
New Netherlands, and King .
Charles ii presented the colony
to his brother, the duke of York, .
who was later King James ii,
and its name was then changed .
to New York.
New York played a leading !.
part In the formation of the
United States. 1t was Alexan-
der Hamilton who was New .

the Constitution and 1t was New :
York city which was selected as
the first capital of the new
Union, where Washington was :
inaugurated the first president.
Ever since the Empire state, as
New York is sometimes called,
has held the deciding voice in
presidential elections. Though
its size is only 49,2O4 square
miles, not quite half way in the
list Of states according to area, :
its great population gives New :
York forty-five presidential cleo
tors. the largest number Of any

WEEKS ASSERTS CUT
IN ARMY is UNWISE
Secretary Says Reduction TO $4,000
Would Mean Abandoning
Many Posts

St Augustine, Fla, March II (Asso-
ciated ress)-Secretary Weeks, in
discussing yesterday the action of the
House appropriations Committee is
reporting a bill carrying considerable
reduced figures for the military es.
tablishment and providing for an
army of 1l5,000 men and 1000 Off
GERS, said II the committee figures
stand 1t will mean that the forces at
the army posts will be reduced to a
point where they wi consist merely
of guards .or the properties. He in
tends to tell the Senate Military AT.
fairs Committee that II Will be impos.
sible TO man 290 posts with any such
quota.
Reduction in the personnel" the
Secretary asserted, lis especially un.
wise unless the overhead expense of
the army is cut at least the same
ratio. 1t now costs about $4,000 per
man year, as against about $1,000
before tie war"
Cutting the army to $4,000 men,"
he sa' d, will necessitate abandon.
ment of many posts. I'VE will have
to take troops out of them, he add
led. 1T requires about $4,000 men on
the border and in foreign possessions,
which would leave 10000 to garrison
the remaining $50 posts, The 10000
include aviation, Quartermaster
Corps, Medical Corps, etc, so that the
remainder is only about $4,000 COM
bat troops, This is only enough to
act as guards of government property
t they are to be divided among all
the posts
"A personnel Of 10000 enlisted
men would leave the army with vir.
tual y the same strength it has today.
1t is the opinion Of army men," he
adds, that this should be the mini.
mum figure"
The Secretary said the American
army In Germany would be reduced
to 1000 4len by April 10.
