 And then such a look of unutterable sadness came into his eyes. An, shall never forget the profound impression my cousin made on me, and know now he has been the inspiration of my lie Just as I have learned from the lips of many men and women how this man mas ln- spired their lives.
 The years passed and we did not meet again, although I kept in touch with him through occasional letters, until fate once more decreed that our paths should cross, and this time parallel each other.
 Becomes Senator
 am about the get ahead of my story, so I will go back to the time of our first meeting and tell you what my cousin told me, who, at this period Tn his life had become member or the Congress of the United States, and the newspapers referred to him as the Hon. Milford W. Howard.
 The story he told me of his early struggles, has dreams, his heartaches his achievements, moved me as nothing else in my life had ever done, and for long time could not restrain the tears when I would live over again the thrill ing story of his life.
 I set up a shrine in my heart for this big. picturesque kinsman of whom l was so proud, and through all these years I have never failed to pray for him and his success.
 But I must tell you what he told me, and perhaps I can best do this by telling it to you just as he did me, for it is so deeply engraven in my sub conscious that I shall not forget one word, one look, one gesture as long as I live.
 He said, "My father migrated to Arkansas by way of the covered wagon in 1866, when I was very small boy.

Bad lighting is common failing of the motor ear. If you don't believe 1t 60 out on some main travelled road any night and count the number of cars with only one light burning or with flickering lights or even with none at alL Not only is such a condition an noyink, it is positively dangefous.
 When the headlights of your c2r lose all enthusiasm and burn with dim light. the trouble usually is lack Of voltage in the battery. This trouble is caused by too much use of lights and starter and it's cure is recharging the battery. A short circuited wire in the line from battery to switch will cause this ailment. When the battery shows discharge with the engine dead there is a short somewhere.
 Current leakage may be detected by disconnecting the main wire at the battery and moving 1t back and forth across the terminal. If there is a small spark, there is a short somewhere in the wire or switch.
 If the ammeter does not show charge when the engine is running above ten or twelve miles an hour, the cutout points arc probably open. The lights flicker, look for Q loose connection. in the main wiring or an intermittent short, caused by loose wire or terminal

Lights That Fail

discharge when all the lights are off connection. s
 In cases where the ammeter shows and the ignition switch is off, the cut out points probably are closed or else there is short in the main wiring. Barring these the ammeter hand must be sticking. And just by the way, the lmmeter does not show discharge when the starter pedal is pushed down be- cause the starter is on special circuit of its own.
 When one headlight suddenly stops working but the other stays on the job, try first the bulb to see if 1t is burned out and then go over the wiring connections of that lamp, for something is loose somewhere. If one light is dim, the bulb may be defective or there may be q partial short in the wiring of that lamp. A flickering light points to n loose connection A worn socket or a weak spring in the lamp socket may cause this particular trouble. It is usual to have both headlights go out at once, because both are on the same circuit. When both lights go out or become dim together, 1t means obs yiosly that the trouble is in wire common to both. Of it may be in the switch, which may be shorted or de fective. If you suspect the switch, bridge it with a wire and see if the trou- ble disappears. If it does the switch is at fault.

He is a mans man, alive to his finger tips, ready to fight for a cause, just as the Towards have ever been, but he is profoundly spiritual: In his cabin, which is his shrine of silence, his holy of holies, he kneels morning and evening and invokes Gods blessings, and it is the joy of my life to kneei by his side. He never takes an ansimportant step without first invoking divine guidance.

They have found places on +he staffs of schools and colleges ana seats in the city council and provinc1ai legislature. Most of the Icelanders, now ever. have kept to the rural sectons and engaged in farming and dairying.
 From Winnipeg they have spread to saskatchewan. Manitoba, Alberta and British Columbia. They have cleared the land, drained it and brought IL un- der cultivation, until today they nave been blessed with great prosperity.
 This has come about to people who upon their arrival in the new country knew not the first essentials of the mod ern sciences of farming. In Iceland they were not tillers of the soil to any great extent Their marked success in Canada is attributed to the fact that, having nothing to unlearn, they applied them selves straightway to becoming adapted to new conditions.

dreamer I had not seen for nearly thirty years. An, shall I ever forget that meeting?
 No words can describe my feelings as I looked into the eyes of my kinsman. The hungry hurt look, the longing had deepened, but I saw too the inspired flashes as he talked rapidly and earnestly of his thew dream" as he smilingly called the school idea.
 The next day we journeyed to Bucks Pocket on Sad Mountain but we both knew intuitively it was not the place for our first school. A little disappointed we returned to the hotel at Fort Payne, and together we bowed before our Father and in- voked His guidance.
 The next night had the pleasure of seeing his picture, ''The Bishop of the -Ozarks," and I was moved by the grow ing understanding of the transcendant genius of my cousin.
 I now saw him for the first time as a truly great actor, possessing a screen technic unsurpassed, if equaled by the greatest screen star.
 What pleased me more than his genius was the universal love bestowed on him by the people who had known him for all these years. l could ill volume with the things they told me about him. Many, very many told me how he had been the inspiration of their lives. s...

 Alabama Here we rest :" And here we are, and have been since June 23, 1923, when we cut down our first pine sapling.
 For more than year now the first unit of 'aThe Master Schools" has been in operation, and I have studied the re- actions of this man who, calls himself a typical mountaineer. I have seen him with his coarse working clothes on, laboring in the summer heat or winter cold, doing more work than any man on the job, lifting heavier loads with an ease that has amazed me. And l have seen our mountaineers watch him with pride in their eyes as they claimed him for their own.
 "He is just as common as we are you hear them say among themselves while another replies, "Yes, and he ain't stuck up at bit" What higher tribute could they pay him?
 And then they say, ''But you ought tC see him put on his store clothes and gt to Birmingham, New York or Lot Angeles and make speeches to then 'big-bugs.' Gee, but they ain't non, of em got anything on him. Ain want my boy to be just like him.

 The Icelanders have returned to SCOT real achievements in the land that Eric left. ,n+l,
 According to an appreciation recently nublished in Canada, no British porn neonie in the Dominion have contriD- nted mores to the development or the Western provinces than the Iceland set- rlers. At seventeen different points m Cann,la these people, now numbering more than 15,O00, have blazed the trail to settlement and prosperity. They nave established a reputation for steadiness, industry and high standards, and are held to have made good almost to man. They have faced hardships win inc sp,rit of pioneers and have proved an antitude for assimilation with thelr neighbors.
 
 Icelanders in Western Canada had no easy road to travel. The first of them put in their appearance about 1878 and settled at Muskoka, Ontario, where a remanant remains today. Two years later some of their kinsmen toiled by OK cart through the painless wilderness from Ontario to St. Paul, then by flat bottomed houseboats down the Red river to Lake Winnipeg. They went into win ter quarters there in log cabins built by themselves. Such was the founding of Gimli, whence Icelanders 'spread to all parts of the prairie provinces and to British Columbia. From there they sent forth some of their best men and women, among them Vilhjalmur Ste | fansson, the Arctic explorer, born twelve miles north of the town.
