That was tho Interval when ids fntltei had been moyor. Like himself, th father of M. Morel had enred alwiut the babies nnd hnd provided meas ures for their protection. Two mayors had followed him, excellent mayors In all other ways, but they hnd not concerned themselves about the babies of the village. M. ilorel returned to the mea sures of protection his father had used, and In the first ten yenni nJ hls term* he brought down the i deaths once more to fifteen In cv* \ *ry hundred. That was still r l Very high rate, and he felt he fall- f rd his village when even one of these babies died through tenor nnc, so in order to reinforce him self he studied mediefne.

AT SPARKS, Nev.—The spec ini traiu to Washington, bearing the body of President Harding, paused here a few minutes this morning before speeding onward on its long journey. Here, ns at every station passed during the Irne night were men, women and children, all with bared heads and many with bowed heads. There were little boys and girls hardly of school age, but they showed the same reverence as did their ciders. SORROW APPARENT ~ 'I * ' AT ROSEVILLEr Cal.-Sorrow in the hearts of the American peo ple over the death of their leader was exemplified today by the si lent groups of men, women and children that gathered along the railroad side as the special train bearing the body of the former president, traversed western Cali fornia and the wide reaches of Nevada. With bared heads they stood in groups of hundreds; sometimes only a score and sometimes singly. None was too poor, rich, mightv or humble to pay this last mark of respect to the memory of the president. They were conscious only of showing sorrow, but to the people on the train they typi fied the American people. _
