in Seattle in various schools, but was
unable to go to North Bend to visit

he hears down there. He went to a
talkie in English with Spanish sub
titles. It was advertised as the latest
talkie but he saw it in Seattle about
a year ago. The audience read the

from the hustle and hustle of ordinary

Oliver Wendell Holmes, who observed his
Goth birthday yesterday.
An active member of the highest tri-
bunal in the country, if not in the world,
Mr.. Holmes is still bright and alert de-
spite his advanced age and the evening
years of his life find him carrying on in
the same spirit that dominated his ear
lier career.
1t was as a young graduate fresh from
Harvard, that Mr.. Holmes first heard
the call of duty to his country and the
month following his matriculation found
him as lieutenant in the Twentieth
Regiment, Massachusetts Volunteer IN
fantry.
He served throughout the entire war,
ending his military career as a brevet
colonel and was distinguished for gal
lantry in action. Moreover he has car

His decisions have been noted for their
deep insight into legal matters, always
balanced with his broad humanitarian
views.
Americans may well be proud of him,
for he typifies the sterling character
