The marriage was the acme Of
romance. Miss Marsh and Captain

the eclipse will be observed and its
phenomena recorded at four main

nearby territory.
These observations will be made
at New Haven, Conn.,, and at Mid

The instruments used to "shoot"

to measure the total light of the

to test the "deflection" theories of

OF the theory Of RELATIVELY" besides
adding other facts about the solar
system to the knowledge of science.

Washington, Feb. 20. Unless the

Mitchell declares surface armies

that aviation is the "whole thing
As assistant chief of army airmen,
his words have weight.
His challenge is one the army and
navy can't afford to ignore.
More will be heard from it unless

The question is:
How. in the meantime, can Nit
cheN be squclched?
| Mitchell himself has been accused
openly of insubordination and disc
bedience of orders. Before cour
martial probably some Of thes
charges could be made to stick.
Even if not driven out of the ser
vice, his advancement in it might b.
blocked. Mitchell isn't full flcdgc'

Look For Finish Fight Between Old School
Army and Navy Men and General Mitchell

Possibly it would shut up an Off
Ger whose bread and butter depended
on his job, but Mitchell is independ-
emily rich.
|. The army or navy officer of ortho-
dox West Point or Annapolis cduca-
ton is sensitive to his fellow pro-
fcssionals' attitude toward him.
Not a West Pointer
But Mitchell isn't West Pointer.
He rose from the ranks.
More, he is contemptuous of West
Point and Annapolis men.
He says their training is out of
date. Wrong ideas are drilled into
them deliberately. Their instructors
he maintains. so over-emphasize the
Importance of surface armies and
surface fleets that they're incapable
Of grasping problems of the air.
He considers himself fortunate in
having escaped this curse. He told
the congressional Investigators so.
Thus, rather singularly, though
one man is opposed to the entire
army and navy of the United States
the odds are rather on his side.
1t is more than likely he will be
forced out into civil life, but what
then?
Why. he says he'll run for Con.
gress. His father was senator. He
has a political flair. If he runs
the chances are he'll be elected. Ir
the House Of Representatives hi
might be greater grief to army and
navy men of the old school than h.
is now.

WOMEN CROWD MEN IN BUSINESS

The changes in the business world which have raised wom-
mans position from that of an inferior to that of an executive
has brought about a peculiar economical situation. 1t has brought
the women great financial responsibilities which were formerly
regarded as peculiar to men, and if the condition is to continue,
women must not expect to enjoy all privileges which have been
theirs hitherto.
Womans place in business was created by force of neces-
siy and it cannot be denied that it originally evolved from
mans distaste for certain types of office routine. Today there
mess life, and the Business and professional. Womens club alone
represents 100000 of them soldly organized for the purpose of
bettering woman's position and overcoming the inherent preju-
dice which still fingers in the mind of man. 1t is confidently
expected that during the next generation men will be compelled
to fight and make good in order to hold their places in business
of in the professions.

Influence is the greatest ideal to which mar OF woman may
aspire. Many men have acquired prominence from the stand
point of success, but their influence on the world departed with
them. That is not true of Washington, of Lincoln, of Frederick
the Great, of Emerson, of Luther, or of Christ. A man is great
only in the influence he leaves upon mankind; and it is a peculiar
fact that only the good influences endure. Influence has no
death. There is a life after death, because a mar lives in what
he has left.
