Military Administrator

His very refusal to ac-
cept the command and its
responsibilities was an In
dication Of his vision and
grasp Of realities. He was
familiar with the wilderness
in which the British armies
would have to move, the
wilderness that destroyed
Braddock.
But if he had accepted,
there might have been no
Saratoga and no Yorktown,
for he was the greatest mill
tary administrator England
produced between the Duke
of Marlborough and the Duke
of Wellington. Since his ca
reer was free from blunders
and stupidities, it is at least
possible that he would have
avoided the traps into which
Burgoyne fell at Saratoga
and Lord CORVALLIS at York
town.
It is at least possible that
George Washington would
not have been able to escape
from a British trap in Long
Island and retreat northward
through Manhattan, while a
dull British general drank
his wine and basked in the
smiles of the artful Mrs. Muir
ray, almost on the very spot
where the Empire State
Building stands today.

League Leadership
Congratulations

An observer of the Washington political wrote the
other day that this city has become the center Of everything
In the Nation with the exception of sport
Apparently Manager Joe Cronn and his American League
Baseball Club have decided not to let the exception stand
The city is working up real enthusiasm behind the
team which is leading the American League and the team
fully deserves the support which it will receive during the
coming home stay
If the Nationals bring the American League pennant
to Washington with the ensuing world series the city will
indeed have to rejoice.
Washington got world series spirit several years
ago and it has hungered for of the dish
since
Of course the sports writers will tell you it is too
early start serving the dish but there that mystic
significance that is attached to the league leadership July
4, And Washington had that leadership
Congratulations to Clark Griffith and his players for the
mighty fight they putting up.

Relentless Conquest

This new and important
chronicle Of his career and
of the events which founded
the Dominion of Canada,
was made possible by the
discovery, not long ago, in
the cellar of a country
house in Kent, England,
of II chests which had lain
there for 40 years and
which contained a vast
store of letters and docu-
ments which had belonged
to Lord Amherst; and these
tell the story of the bad
luck, the modesty and the
pride which prevented Lord
Amherst from reaplng the
rewards that were due him
for adding an empire to the
British crown.
1t tells the story Of his
relentless conquest of the
savage Indian tribes that
were the allies Of the French,
and of how he planned the
grand strategy which, in a
series of hammer blows,
drove the troops of the
French King from Quebec
and Ticonderoga and Crown
Point and Montreal.

however, that Ruth really wants
to be a writer or would like
being a writer if the chance
came. For. Ruth's idea Of
writing has no relationship,
whatever, to the actual work Of
writing.
It's a very glamorous affair,
that dream. A sort of Holly
wood version of a literary ca
reer. Incense filled studios. Fas-
cinating, scintillating circles Of
Bohemian friends. Travel. Ad-
venture. Fame in big, blazing
letters on book covers, in book
reviews. And in the midst Of
it Ruth, herself, radiant but

Real Writing as a toasted

For dreamy drilling and down

No: it's a safe bet Ruth
wouldn't like being a writer,
even if she could. And she
couldn't, for she has none of
the qualifications. She hates
to study. She has no love for
words, no compelling interest
in people, none of those hun

Amherst in Canada

The great soldier whose
name is borne by the fine
little college that turned out
Calvin Coolidge, Dwight W.
Morrow and so many other
fine men has never received
the credit which was his due.
If Robert Give won India
for Great Britain, Jeffery
Amherst as certainly won
Canada.
Yet the histories and the
story books have always
made General Wolfe, who fell
in the taking Of Quebec, the
hero of the great adventure.
But it was Amherst who
planned the strategy and
whose wise and tolerant poll
cies secured the loyalty of
the French provinces. But
Lord Amherst, brilliant as he
was, could not dramatic him
self, and the glory which was
rightfully his mantled the
shoulders Of lesser men.

Arresting question marks
leap from j. G. Longs in
tensely interesting biography
Of that soldier of the king
who came from a "far coun-
tree" to win Canada for the
British Empire.
It is the story Of Lord
Jeffery Amherst, and it
throws a flood Of light upon
the reason why England was
able to destroy French power
on the North American CONT
nent, and Gwhy Canada pre-
ferred to go along with Eng
land rather than consent to
become a part Of the United
States.
After all, perhaps we
Americans were the greater
losers, because even our coun-
try would have been the bet
ter with sane, sensible, stout
hearted Canada as a member
of our family. But it was
not so to be and probably
never will be, for Canada is
essentially British in her own
right and a mighty stable
and forward-looking nation.

Unalterable Destiny,

Every measure and estl-
mate Of the character and
ability of Lord Amherst sug-
gests the strange fact that
unalterable destiny was at
work when he declined the
task of subduing the rebel
lious colonies.
It was not in the plan and
pattern of the Almighty that
they were to be subdued. And
the only British soldier who
might have been and almost
certainly would have been
competent for the task coldly
declined. Strange, was it

That Still, Small Voice.

That Still, Small Voice.
That old conscience Of yours
is a pretty reliable pilot if per-
mitted to guide you.
Don't stifle its whisperings or
you may regret it.
You, seldom get into trouble
without a warning inner voice.
If you obey the suggestion to
halt before you get into diff
culties, you are wiser than the
one who disregards the still,
small voice of conscience.
There have been things in
your life that you regret.
You wish you had no such
recollections.
They disturb you enough to
make you ashamed when you
remember them.
The only consolation you have
is that they are not generally
, known.

But there is no real comfort
in that thought.
You must live with your
self and you cannot get rid OF
those mind pictures which your
nisdeeds have imprinted on
your memory.
Your conscience, right now, Is
battling with you to prevent
you from doing something that
will cause you embarrassment
and regrets later, perhaps.
Not only listen. but heed the
voice Of conscience.

Once upon a time, a girl
used to wear plenty Of ruffles
and pads and petticoats, to
give the effect of what was
known as figure" And she
bound steel and whalebone
around her waist in order to
look huggable. But, you'd think
a man would scratch his fin
gers trying to grasp a modern
debutante's elbow or to pat her
on the Shoulder-blade.
AS a matter Of fact and
record, plump people are more
cheerful and much easier on
the nerves than half-starved
bones. That's why Brutus pre-
ferred fat men to those with

No! Men seldom desert Jolly,
good-natured, plump wives.
But, Mexico and Reno are often
filled with sylph-like beauties.
who have grown sharp-tem-
pered and nervous on reducing
diets and bending exercises.
And the truth in the case
mentioned is that it was not
the 40 pounds the lady gained
which caused her husbands
fancy to turn to a blonde, but
the long months she spent
apart from him, in a health re-
sort.
A short absence sometimes
makes the heart grow fonder.
But, if a mans heart is in
clined to be wobbly, it always
wobbles the other woman's
way, during a wife's LONG
absence.
Naturally, as a woman grows
older, fatter and duller. the
bright flame Of romance dies
down to a steady and some
times lukewarm affection. But
then, how about a MAN grow
