Dr. Daniels’ life Reflected In Volume
Georgia as a place of residence
seems to have a strong lure for tal
ented sons of Michigan. Not only
the Hon. Chase S. Osborne has been
adopted by that State; but a “lost
Wolverine" has been discovered in
Francis Potter Daniels. Ph. D„
thor of "The Golden Trove” (Henry
Harrison).
This volum of collected poems is
in effect a spiritual bography of a
distinguished in two fields, at
least. Dr. Daniels is head of the
Latin department at the Georgia
State College for Women at Mil
led geville. He is an authority on
plants as well as romance languages,
having been, in 1911, assistant
tor of the United States National
Herbarium. He is an ordanled minis
ter and has written scientific volumes
on French and the flora of two
continents.
Bom in Ionia, Aug. 1, 1869, Dr.
Daniels was graduated from th<
University of Michigan. After hii
ordination he had pastorates in Stur
gis and Manistee, leaving the pul
pit for the teacher’s desk.
In 1911-12 he made a world tour
as the first fellow of Die Kahn
Foundation for Foreign Travel c€
American Teachers. IBs professional
associations are many and varied.
His lyric gift developed early. A
poem to his first Greek class. Iona
high school 1890, is included. He
wrote the “Consecration Ode" as class
poet. University of Michigan. Class
of 1895. Side by side with poems in
praise of Georgia, fellow Wolverines
will delight to find those on “Michi

How old is Ann?
That question propounded by
President Roosevelt in recently turn
ing aside a query about NRA s fu
ture, stumped some of Washington s
corps of correspondents. Being of
the younger generation, they didn’t
understand.
So here’s that old puzzle, the orig
in of which has been claimed by
several, as it was worded by Sam
Loyd, puzzle expert of Brooklyn.
“Johnny had a working a £ r ^"
ment with his sisters covering the
suppression of family history, so
when the census man inquired as in
the ages of Mary and Ann Johnny
clouded statistics in the following
truthful statement:
“The combined ages of Mary and
Ann are 44 years .and Mary Is twice
as old as Ann was when Mary was
half as old as Ann will be when Ann
is three times as old as Mary was
when Mary was three times as old
“"“How old is Ann? Can you figure
it out? It's really not as complicat
ed as it sounds, if you go at it quietly
and unhurriedly.” T *
In his puzzle book Sam Iz> v d ex
plained that usually riddles based on
.implication of facts concerning ages
could be worked best by “>S eb ™;
and. just as In many an old worn
leebra. the answer was in the b
' r the book—Ann is 16 1-2.
