The idol is generally a young man. an id the ration—which usually admires him as nine h for his modesty as for anything—does its Icy* el best to destroy his modesty a nd give, him a badly head. y' / very swo rn As it happens, we’ve hcem extremely for tunate in our choice o f r/ToIs lately, hirst there was Lindbergh, who' stood up under the ar deal as well ns,tiny young man possibly cou jfj have. Now it seems to be Hobby Jones; a nc j he. toe*, seems to be just the sort of stuff that the; nation needs in a popular figure. Really, we owe these two -young men a good deal. 1 hey h ive given us. and especial ly our youngsters, very worthy targets for hero worship. They have, too, set a pretty high standard for luture national idols to live up to. - “Invest In And Around (Irlffin" THE REPORTER'S RESPONSIBILITY ' The ’name of Alfred l.ingle probably wi exist in public memory hi a long time. Not because he was murdered by a C hicago gang ster—the list of men who share that distinc tion is too long for memory —but because he was unfaithful to his trust as a newspaper re porter.' The reporter occupies a peculiar position. He works bord, he is occasionally poorly paid, and he is now and then thrust up against temptations against his integrity; and thru it all there rests on nim a binding, if unwrit ten, obligation —to serve the public. although he is not a public servant,' by telling in the ti- exact truth far lies within his as as power, about what -is going <>n in the world. It is a tribute to the class of men who work for American newspapers that so very, very few of them are r faithless to this trust Linglc was one of the exceptions. He will he re m'"inhered as a man who was so ill advised as to take money from the underworld that he was hired to report. -■ ...... . “Invest In And Around Griffin The g. a. r. and THE LEGION Illinois G A. IL, veterans held a state en campment at Rock Island the other day and only 76 registered delegates attended. Items of this sort are getting common— all too common—but they never fail to stir our interest. There was a time when a state encampment of the G. A. FL, meant big crowds, long parades, tumultous conventions, lots of excitement, But now, 76 bearded old men are all that can attend! You can get the contrast best, perhaps, by contrasting this G. A. R., convention with the ordinary American Legion gathering. As fhe Legionnaira are now. so the War Be tween the States veterans were a generation ago; and as the War Between the States men are today, so these robust, energetic young Legionnaires will be a generation hence.

If you expect your child, or any othei c bild, to have confidence in you, you d better be careful either to keep all promises, or to explain why a promise cannot be kept. I am supposing 1 was an average c hild will i averai’c memory; ana I want to te you s niellnnjj, in proof of my assertion that chi I dren do not forget promises. I wo Wf ago. in a North Alabamn tptvn where ! lived when ( l was a small boy, I passer a corner where ,i drugstore once stood. 1 verythiri); is , hanged there, now; but when I passer (hat corner the first thing I thought of v\ a s the man who made me a promise, when I was a small boy, and not on ly broke the promise, but also nyist broke my heart. r<> he veiy honest about it, I have found it hard lo forgive that man and have any respect for uin. I lore is what__happened and bow it hap pened. It was two' weeks before ( hristmas. I was much interested in my first sweetheart. I he man wh<i kept the drugstore had just got in a lot of fancy articles which were display ed in-a—show-window. One afternoon, on my way home Irani school, I stopped at the win dow to look at the pretty , things in it and wish I had enough money to get my little sweethear a present. •I he merchant, for j whom I i 1.1 d often brought huckets of water from the nearby spring. came to the door of 4- longingly, the store and saw mr loo king, at the things in the window. * “Pick out anything in Urrr ^'v^nrTovv that / doesn t cost over 5()ii-oifid you may have it | lor C hristmas ; Jfist , come in the day before ] C hristnryuv^-find get it. suggested the store k/eefier, to my amazement and delight. And I thanked him while tears of gratitude pop - ped into my eyes. I must have spent hours before that win ^ dow .during the next two weeks, trying to t decide what I wanted- Finally I induced „ my little sweetheart to stop at the window' and look in with me. When I asked her what she d rather have, in that window, for ( hrist mas .she tic kef I me most to death by indicat ! ing a small bottle of perfume that was mark rd exactly 50c. Its as good as yours, I t O'ld her. with chesty pride. The night before the' bay before Christ mas I slept very little. I was keen to get my hands on that 50c bottle of perfume, a nd 1 was trying to imagine how delighted my little sweetheart would be with the present, I wondered if my rival would give her any thing half so pretty. W hen I went for the present, the mer i haul had not only forgotten his promise, he also accused me of trying to get something for nothing. He is dead, now, and I hope he is net so mise: -as he made me. - “Invest In And Around Griffin' QUOTATIONS "We ca animals wild without realizing that mail himself has made them so. —- fl. L.

She put cn her oldest clothes, She paid no attention to her face, which was as usual, violently made up, like a caricature. She was wrought up to such a pitch of excitement that when ?ht was shown into Gideon s ereat sa lon she did not recognize it as per haps the most beautiful room in New York It did tlic milli inaiff credit tt> ,t he showed not the slightest Sur prise at her appearance. He asked her to sit down and she did so. Oil an old English day bed. with cushion of dull gold She was pulling off her gloves and then put ting them on again. She was fright fully nervous as she looked into his pale, heavy face “I wanted to see you first, Mr. Gideon." she said hurriedly •T am willing to take this game up but only if. you'll let me keep myself while I’m learning to dance I c \r. manage that "all right I can t live on you. I expect, if this reallv thinks T am good, he'll hr willing to wait for his fees until lir ready; so ttint wouldnt eo«t any thing; I can t, take anything from you-while I'm learning, I'd rather give the idea up altogether" • Why. of course. Mips Judy " Gi deon answered suavely “I've been thinking that over myself T quite understand You are a most hid per del ;J voimi lady: but if you go on with your work, wont von be too tired?" "Lord, no! 1 ean do anything. I'm as strong as a horse.' “As to Guarvenius. Em sure hz'll jump at you He is an artist, and wouid not think of money, anyhow Bplieie me, I admire your indepen dence Leave me out of it alto gether. Fix it up with G’.arvenius yourself; but allov me the privilege chon you are reads' of helping vo u tn whatever way I ear, " Judy was delighted She wa -• be ginning to warm to the idea There wa« adventure In tt. This man jvho knew so much oi the world was ready to allow her to succeed on her own merits. He did rot want to lay her under any obltsa - ‘ions. How ridiculous Bastten haa icen' It wag a perfectly genuine business proposition He knew she vns a dancer, and she anew it, kr, Guarvenius arrived He was a small, dapper man. with a delicate, artistic face, slightly feminine and yet strong He luid gray hair, growing Yack In a shock from his broad forehead, a small, high-bridged nose, deep-set lumi nous. gray eyes, and a really beauti ful mouth, spoiled by a set of dis colored teeth iirrminted for, no, doubt, by the never-abseni clftfet. Judy wa s never at a loss with any man, and the two got on fa mously. Guarvenius spoke perfect English In a voire with a sad. sym pathetic cadence. The lunch wa sserved in a small severe, dark-paneled room It was very frugal There were more flowers on the table than there was food There was only water to drink It wtt a strictly busm^s like function but for 'he flowers, and there were flowers everywhere. ?:i over the great apartment—heayy scented flowers that sent fumes up Into Judy’s brain such as no wine could ever do "Now. Miss Judy. you dance." said Gideon, when they had finished coffee “I will show you the other room—they will have it ready. A friend is coming to play. What would you like him to pipy?” He led Judy into another great room. Vith three tall windows over looking a garden. It was quite bare, with a polished floor. At one end was a raised platform with a full-sized grand piano on it. There was no other furniture. The walls were pale yellow, hung with tapes tries. Judy looked round her. She felt suddenly as if she had never danc ed in her life, It was a huddle tit tie bundle of misery that look 'd up at Gideon. “Oh!" she breathed. Please leave me here for a little while alone, before anybody comes!” When Gideon had gone out. ac c _ ceding sympathetically to her re quest, Judy stood by one of the raft windows. She took her coat off. hut kept her hat on. She looked oui on the garden below, but she did not see it. Somehow she seemed to see a picture of a place among gray-green mountains, which die felt sure must be Alan fiteyne's lit tle house in Maine. There were flr trees and there iyas rushing wa ter. and tt was all very bleak and wild A pale sun was spiring thiu a mist. Looking back into the thp yellow-washed walls, hung wi>/n grayish-green tapestries made her think of that sun The door opened, and a tall young mafi .a foreigner, came in He bowed very punctiliously. He was dark and thir and quiet-looking “I have come to play for you. mademoiselle." he said In broken English. "I s there anything you would like—any ballet suite you are especially fond of?" Judy shook her head helplessly. Her voice was panic-stricken. ■■I don’t know anything about music. I know I'm going to be a failure, I don't think I can dance. after all." "Oh, but, mademoiselle, of course you can dance!" said the young man. "You must not be nervous. M. Guarvenius is so kind. Perhaps yon would rather I Improvised? Some dancers prefer it; I can fol low you better. Will you tell me the theme—shall It be Spanish Egyptian, Oreek, Rus.Uan. or—” "Could you do something Scotch?” Judy asked, trembling with excite ment. And then she laughed, be cause it sounded like whisky. "All gray and green, like this room ' She swept her arm around. She hardly knew her-eif Ah. that Is cold and bleak and dark!” he exclaimed. “I was playing in Glasgow recently, and I went for a tour In the Highlands. Wait!” He went to the piano and struck out a tunc, note by note, It v-as a Highland fling After that he suggested the skirl of the bagpipes ip a few simple notes, and then •broke Into a lament “That will be lovely,' said Judy, all a tremble "And could you puv come w f ater in, please?” He nodd<d. Hl4 long, thin hands.' hovering a moment over the keys, descended, and there burst upon her atralntd ear* music which, had seats at the same time. Guarvenius' sad voice sounded in her ears. “Some northern country—Scot land, 1 think—and a girl ° f the hill* waiting l'or her lover and dancing the time away. Mountains and wa ter and fir trees—and*at last the sound of the pipies coming over the hills tells her that he is near. Was that it, Miss Judy?” Judy was transfixed with amane ment. Had she really conveyed all that? Gideon was severely noncommit tal as "he turned to the great man. "I think you are not displeased, he said, “Miss Grant has talent, has she not?" Guarvenius was not a man to ex press more than a quarter of he felt. “Miss Grant certainly has talent." he said, “She ought to do well the picturesque school.” said “I could see everything you just now,” Gideon went on. she c^'veyed exactly the same to me, though I couldn't have it into words.
