LITTLE CHILD SHALL LEAD"
Clever Fling at Editorial Com
ment on His Youthfulness.

Being referred to as a Child" Is
all right if one knows the trick Of
turning the phrase. The New York
Times, in an editorial, referred to the
yOuthfulness of Banford MacNider,
commander of the American Legion.
In the next speech MacNider made
he said:
You remember the story of the
shaky young second lieutenant who
was suddenly called upon to take com
mand of a hard-boiled company. AS
he stepped to the front, some private
in the rear rank muttered: And
little child shall lead them The Of
ficer commanded the man who made
the remark to step two PAGES for
ward-and the whole company stepped
up.
"He dismissed them and ten minutes
later the following bulletin was posted
on the cOmpany's board: This COM
pany will assemble at p. m. in heavy
marching order for twentymile hike.
And a little child shall lead them
on a d-n big horse"

Editor Grimes sat down and wrote
them 1926 personal letters while they
were away from home, an average OF
one letter a month for each fighter or
nurse In addition he mailed copy
Of the hometown paper to each Of

not the observation-disclosures
truly" variety; they contained the bits
of "home gossip" and local color for
which the doughboys were willing to
give their last cigarette.
When the veterans returned, Editor
Grimes assisted in the formation of a
post of the American Legion and de-
voted an entire edition Of the News
to reproducing the pictures Of every
lie Sueur boy that had lost his life
in the war.

when he was seventeen years old.
In 1905 he was transferred from APP
prentice seaman to hospital appren-
tice, and the following year was one
Of those who administered aid to the
survivors of the famous turret eXplo-
sion on board the U. s. S. Kearsarge,
on Good Friday afternoon. He quit
the navy in 1908, but heard the voice
of the sea again in 1915. Within a
year he was helping capture Vera
Cruz with the landing party that went
ashore from the Atlantic fleet.
Before 1917 had ended he had es-
tablished hospital at st. Anglers, and
Naval Base Hospital No. l at Brest
One of the things he does not mention
about his career is the outbreak of a
fire at Brest, during which he carried
out several helpless patients and near
ly ruined a couple of serviceable
hands. During the Marine offensive he
was on an operating team at Juilly.
The Legion thought so much of his
spirit and capabilities that they elect
ed him one Of their national heads.

Long in time and short in impor

scribes his military career. AS mat
ter of fact he was a fairly important
soldier He started as private In
the Seventh regiment in 1897. Ten
years later he was offered lieuten-

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 pacifists footing their tin

just as intelligent when deaf as when

Better Take Time to Think

Major H. Nelson Jackson is not
doing any talking for publication re-
garding his candidacy for the United
States Senate. His silence in the
matter would indicate that he is not
going to be rushed off his feet at the
first political shot out Of the gun.
This is a wise decision. The major
no doubt desires to make little per
sonal survey and here is where he
displays good judgment. The man
that enters the arena of politics to-
day without pretty thoroughly look
ing over the field is a novice. In these
days it is no infants game. Even the
most experienced party leaders are
getting some terrible falls.-Water-

Course They VIII Kick

One gathers from a recent editorial
in the Burlington Free Press that the
increased expenditures in the high
way department of the state is jus
tifiable and will be defended. This
attitude will be taken about other
expenditures and other departments,
no doubt, and the question at once
arises, where will decreased expen-
ditures be brought about? This
paper believes the only way it can
be done is to cut every department

THE WIZARD" WINS
SIXTH ELIMINATION
Capt. johnson Still Leads in Upton
Series With "a Points-WitherelI
and Kennedy Tied.

THE Wizard-Capt. Willie Walthers
came back in old form yesterday
and outcIassed his competitors, in
GLIDING the best shippers Of the Pensa-
cola Yacht club in the sixth elimna-
ton race He got off in the lead at the
beginning and not once during the three
times around the regular triangular
course was he passed. maintaining the
lead the entire distance.
1t was pretty race, and the way
Captain Walthers sailed his little
sloop was repetition Of the skill which
he has so often demonstrated in inn
portant events Of the past.
Holly Contested.
The breeze, a steady one, was COM
ing from the southwest at a ten-knot
clip, which was enough to send the
sioops at a lively speed. Even though
"the wizard led the field, the race
was close and hotly contested through
out.
Captain Dave Witherell seemed q
little off from his usual form yester
day and was not able to maintain the
pace that Capt Willie set. Capt. Tom
Johnson, who has been sailing some
mighty fine races during the series and
who is leading in the PERCENTAGE coll
umn, got off to bad start. He started
last, but by careful and slxillful sailing
he was able to round the first buoy in
second position, and held it the re-
mainder OF the race.
Jack Crenshaw, Capt. Oscar Shep-
ard and Capt. Dave had little race
all OF their own for third place, only
few yards separating them at any
time during the event.
The finish: Capt. Walthers in slooI
No. j was first; Tomnnie Johnson in No
second: Capt. Oscar Shepard in No
8, third; Capt. Witherell in No. 4
fourth; and Jack Crenshaw in No. 2
fifth.
The club standing was somewhat
changed by the reversal in yesterdays

10 points. Kennedy IL. Witheren IL

All OF the shippers, with the excep-
ton of Capt Chas. Cottrell, have sail
ed three races each, he having scored
four points in two events.
Special Race.
Following the scheduled race, the
mainsheet men on the various sloops
changed places with the shippers anc
piloted, them around the course for one
time. This special event was won by
Brent Watson. oldest son of Capt. jim
4 Watson. who is also an ardent yachts
imam. Brent turned the trick in the
same boat which "the wizard wor
