VISION ON SANTA FE TRAIL
Story Told by Caravan Travellers Just
Before the Outbreak of the
Mexican War.

There is a story among the classics
that just before the assassination of
julius Caesar, both Brutus and Cassi-
US, while in their places in the Roman
senate, saw chariots of fire in the sky.
There is a bit of fiction told Of the
breaking out of the war between Mex
leo and the United States that reminds
one of this story OF the classics.
Early in the spring of 1S46, before
it was known or even conjectured that
there would be war between this gov
ernment and Mexico q caravan of
twenty-nine traders on their way to
Santa Fe beheld, just before a storm,
little before sunset, a perfectly dis
tinct image of the bird of liberty, the
American eagle, on the disc of the
sun. When they saw it they simultan-
eously and almost invOluntarily ex-
claimed that in less than twelve
months the Eagle of Liberty would
spread its broad plumes over the
plains of the West, and that the flag
OF our country would wave over the
cities of New Mexico and Chihuahua.
One story is as true, probably. as
the other, though separated by CEN
turies of time.-Detroit News.

Mary Succeeds
on Main Street
THE UNIVERSITY OF
THE YARDS
By LAURA MILLER
20. by Laura Miller

"Main Street can't train girls to
earn a living" is a plant that runs
through thousands of letters, in one
wording or another. from girls who
seek careers. True, 1t is that courses
in biology, in art, in medicine, are not
to be found at any crossroads. But
suppose fury of desire to paint peo-
ple-or to cut them up and remold
them nearer to good health's desire
doesn't drive Mary off Main Street?
Shall she forsake family and friends
and all the comfortable, homely things
one grows up with, for a casual ca
reer? If ones just the average girl,
may not the little home town job,
where conscientious worker learns
something of everything, help out If
the great test comes?
Let me tell you the story of Mary
Marshall of Marshalltown, Ind. 1t
was early in 1919. War brides were
hurrying to meet transports from
France. Fathers in khaki were losing
their look born of horrors as they
gazed upon miraculous little sons that
recalled their own before -the-war
selves.
Mary Marshall, nee Hopkins, had
just come to Washington for a job
that would support herself and John,
Jr. She and John, Sr., had run the
railroad and village telegraph office
until 1918. Then she had abruptly be-
come Mrs. Marshall and sole operator
She was a competent worker, evident
ly. And she knew she was releasing
not merely man, but her man for
war service. When John, Jr., arrived
she gave up work and lived with Fa-
ther and Mother Marshall.
The day Mary came to mel was
running Uncle Sans employment Of
fee in Washington just then-I tried
to send her back to Marshalltown.
She had home. She had baby to take
care of. And she was-so I told her
practically unframed. Hadn't she
come straight from the corner of Main
Street and Railroad Avenue?
Mary Marshall wouldn't go back to
Marshalltown. After a generous por-
tion of stupidity on my part and of
shyness on hers. the story came out.
John, ST., was in Washington hos
pital, shell-shocked. His chances for
sanity lay in seeing Mary and John,
Jr.. every day. A job was found for
Mary as correspondence clerk in the
telegraph division of the United States
Railroad administration. 1t was no
charity job, either. "There isn't any
thing she didn't learn something about
in that little dump of an office in the
railroad yards" her chief said later
"Shes all to the good"
For obvious reasons, Mary Marshall
and Marshalltown aren't her real
name and address. But the story is
real to the core.

Father of Brass Bands

The brass band has existed for less
than century. "That little German
band" was the father of all modern
brass bands. Along about 1910. in
Germany, the "band' was born, though
actually the first collection of outdoor
instruments which history traces
dates back to the Saracens, whom the
crusaders met in the Holy Land in the
Middle ages.
The first bands In Germany were
called "thurmer bands" because they
played in towers. For almost half a
century the brass band was almost
solely an army unit. The great bands
of history were regimental. bands. Ger
many even appointed a bandmaster-
general, Wieprecht, who invented the
bass tuba, the giant bass horn of
today.-Detroit News.
