VANCOUVER, BIC. (U.PD = Dan
Tom. a Mayne Island Indian. once
had the experience of being kid
naped by an eagle. according to
legend.
One day in 1888, when Tom was
moss-wrapped papoose, lying on
a seashore Indian encampment, a
giant bald -headed eagle sWooped
down and flew off with him to
th. accompanying wall OF the
5quaws. -
A white man named Collinson
rushed to the scene with his rifle,
according to the legend. with the
eagle circling higher and flying
over the water in the direction OF
Galiano Island.
Collinson ordered the Indians to
follow the bird in their canoe.
The white man fired a shot to
frighten the eagle. taking care not
to aim too close for fear of hitting
the child.
The startled eagle dropped Dan
Tom into the sea. where he was
picked up minutes later by canoe.
Dan Tom is now man OF about
so.
The eagle. which was shot lmme-
diately afterward, has been stuffed.

Bruce Carton Says:
- Acid Test Reveals Human shortcomings

people who were being tested had
no time to make up their minds
what they were going to do.
We could all be brave and noble
fellows if we had time to nerve
ourselves for the ordeal in ad-
vance: to marshal our better
natures" call up our reserves of
moral ami physical courage, set
our teeth and plunge in with due
resolution. But life doesn't always
give us time to do that. 1t taps us
on the shoulder and says" Answer,
quick now-what sort of bird are
YOU. anyway" And the answer is
out before you know it.
Most of lis have a pretty sorry
gap between ideals and practice.
We know what we ought to be, and
we know that We don't come very
close to it in dailv life; but We tell
ourselves that when the emergency
comes we will get hold of ourselves
and rise to meet it as we should.
: Which is where We kid ourselves
pretty badly. For life brings us
these emergencies without warn
ing, and they are past before we
know they have come. And ever
after, we have to live with the
picture they reveal.

Other Editors Say
AMERICAN HERO WORSHIP
Cotton COurierJ

Wild suggestions that New York Citys re-
elected Mayor LaGuardia or the racket-smaShing
district attorney of the Empire state, Thomas
E. Dewey. should become candidates for the
presidency in 1910 are just another indication
of American hero worship.
When someone scores a bulls-eye we become
intoxicated with enthusiasm and Immediately
visualize that person in some high seat OF
honor Notwithstanding the fact that his qua!lfl-
cations for the higher position may not be ade-
quate at all
There is no doubt that these two men have
achieved wonders in New York City and there
is every evidence that the people OF that great
metropolis appreciate their subjugaton of vice
and the building of a higher morale, but that
does not say that either LaGuardia or Dewey
could manipulate the machinery that keeps
whole nation in running order
The nation Is looking for men like these to
carry the standards of decency and right gov
ernment but it would be fatal to catapult
either of them into positions for which they are
not fully prepared. 1t is too bad that we as
nation through jealousy, false criticism or blind
ness. kept our neels grinding such super men as
william Borah Charles Evans Hughes, and Her
bert Hoover in the dust when, through their
long experience and knowledge OF governmental
affairs they could have done so much for us at
the crucial times when needed them so sorely.
