Gibbons To Tell War
 Story or Local Man

Broadcasting one of his memory stories" over the WIZ network of NEG tonight, Floyd Gibbons, famous head line hunter, will relate the story of how a Waterburian helped a Chicago lawyer re- cover the body of his only son, buried in France. The Water burian is Edward J. O'Hearn, K. of c. man and war veteran.
 The father of the boy, Ed ward Houlihan of Chicago, made every effort to secure his boys body by official means but tangles of red tape met him at every turn. Finally. he set out for France and found the cemetery where his boys body was sleeping the eternal sleep.
 The local man, attached to the K. of O. staff, heard the fathers heartbroken story, and overlooking regulations, he promised his help. One night there was a stealthy visit to

the cemetery, a period of dig

the cemetery, period of dig ging.
 Then on to the scene came a French soldier to ask what was going .on. When he learned, he attempted to pre- vent it, and O'Hearn told him that if he wished he could shoot, but that the body was going to be removed. Sym- pathetically the French pOilu heard of the fathers grief, and he returned to guard duty, turning his back.
 There followed a swift ride to the coast, and MT HOuli- han embarked on New York bound boat. In the hold was his sons body, listed among "persOnal effects'. So the body of the boy was brought back to America, to Chicago, and there buried in the family plot. Mir Houlihan himself died some time ago, but daily, before his death, he visited
 his sons grave.

Pearson: Mr. Chairman. This is rou.
tine ordinance which J understand is
passed each year giving the necessary
authority. There is nothing new IL it.
There is one thing to be called TO your
attention, and that is. the Lieutenant
Governor has left words that it would be
better to change the amount from $780,

900. 90 be changed to 500, 10000. My rea-
son for thai is because we are coming
near the time when the lmmigration
Fund is almost exhausted The Council
has been in the habit of voting in years
past when no money was available and
that consider wrong procedure. To-
day the actual cash balance in the Fund
is SIT, 619 g. and if you take out So. 009,-
90 for fire engines you will have but
little over S. 900 90 left give that In
formation to The Council and ask that 1t
be seriously considered.
4th Member for Chris'iansted Country
District (Ale1ander1: Mr.. Chairman.
Since the original bill proposed by Gov
eminent calls for 500, 00000 and they
are asking TO increase that amount to
$40 000.0 90 and the Chairman of 4 Mu-
nlcipal Committee is proposing that the
original amount be reduced TO $40. 0O0.-
90, | would like TO know what is the total
amount usually loaned oct?
lst Member for Christiansted Town
/(CGnegdta): A little over 500 600 90.
Has ErceLLency Governor Paul M.
Pearson: Mr.. Chairman. In reply to the
question asked | wish TO state that the
amount loaned out under the 1888 Ordi-
nance was $3l, 714.64 While on my feet it
seems wise to call attention to the fact
that the Government has no wish, only
what the Council desires The Municipal
Committee has TO pass on each loan and
the Government cannot lend more money
than there is available in the fund.
3rd Member for Christiansted Town
(FGbiO): Mr. Chairman. 1t might not be
the best policy TO spend all the money
there is in the Immigration Fund. Ii is
wise 10 have some money ia the Treas
ury for epidemic or hurricane, or we
may need money to send delegation to
Washington.
End Member for Frederiksted Town
(BroU}: Mr.. Chairman | was wonder
ing now is it thar the immigration Fund
is so much reduced and | am now re-
minded by the las speaker that 81 5O0.-
90 was taken out last year to defray the
expenses of a delegation Why is it that
the find Is so low, is it that money is De-
ing loaned out and not coming in?
End Mem Der for Christiansted TOWN
(Chabert): Mr. Chairman. TIE honorable
End Member for Frederiksted Town is
surprised to find the balance in the I'm
migration Fund 80 low, is it not true that
loans are made for the manufacture OF
rum? That possibly has increased the
amount loaned out.
End Member for Frederksted fowu
(BYow): Mr.. Chairman. Rum loans and
crop loans are made for two years only.

that good manS of these loans are still
out. He has a detailed statemen here

End Member for Frederiksted Town

know from the Municipal Committee is,
why the fund is 80 far reduced. whether
the loans granted are not paid back?

The Administration has the facts. let the
Governor give them to members How
much money was loaned out in 1892 and
1888 and how much have not been re-
paid?
A recess of minutes was given to al
low the Government time to furnish ip-
formation to the Council as to how much
money was loaned out from the lmmi-
grafton Fund during the years 1892 and
1888.
AT the resurn ption the Assistant TO the
Lieutenant Governor A Edbiol gave
the following calculations: Mr.. Chair
man. Under the ordinance of August 8,
1892. which authorized a loan fund. The
amount of S32. 656 81. was paid out; there
was repaid 10 1892. 1888 an amount Of

sible. and watch their pride and
pleasure in caring for them. Small
cans may be used for their indoor
plants so that the busy little hands
may carry them from one sunny
spot to another. Even If a plant
should in the end come to grief,
reverence as well as a love for the
beautiful is being learned and will
not be destroyed. Talk to the boys
and girls about the various flowers
and plants-their habits and needs
speaking their names both COM
mon and botanical. Take the chill
dren for walks whenever possible
and teach them to observe beautiful
cloud formations, sunshine, birds,
trees, MOSES, flowing waters and
all other of Gods wondrous works.
Encouraging them to comment on
objects of loveliness leads them to
adventure farther and farther into
the elusive realm of the beautiful.
One way to help little children to
become alert in observing the beau
tiful is to keep a small book dedi-
Gated to this purpose. At the bed
time hour you can say to Joan,
what did you see today that was
beautiful?" and the response may be
"A little bluebird, Mother" where
was it and what was it doing?"
First il was on the ground and had
a string in its mouth. Then it flew
to a tree. Why did it want the string,
Mother?" To the children. the know
ledge that their discoveries are wor-
thy of being recorded. is an added
spur to them to be observing and to
give expression to their thoughts.
And boys and girls who learn to
love and to have reverence for all
that is beautiful and good will seld-
ON deliberately go far wrong.
