“Gef a Hero” Urges Sec’y of Navy so
Students in Eulogy of Rob’t E, Lee at
Washington and Lee Commencement Today
Lexington, Va—‘‘lf I had one wish
more than another for the South, it
would he that a double portion of the
spirit of General Robert E Lee should
fall upon them, and that those who
lead should receive his mantle and
worthily wear it."
So declared Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, in an address today at Wash
ington and Lee University annual com
mencement exercises. The Secretary’s
earnest message to the students was
“Get a Hero,” and he urged them to
choose Lee as their exemplar, pointing
out that their future would be marked
I y the sort of heroes they chose.
“We are all hero worshippers—or we
should be —and 1 give you the example
of the perfect product of what worship
of the noblest hero can produce in
urging you to choose Lee as your ex
emplar, as Lee chose Washington," he
safd. “I canont tell you the alchemy
or the transmigration by which one
who worships a great man comes to
Partake of the qualities, of the object
; f the worship.”
This Was Lee.
Secretary Daniels said that he had
recently received in response to let
ters to former students of Lee, their
estimates of the man which he said
gave him better insight into Lee as a
tougher and a comrade than all the
How Uncle Sam Saves
Thousands of Lives
Depends Upon the Hot Springs of Arkansas* to Cure His
Soldiers, Sailors and Citizens.
Many years ago. when Thomas Jef
ferson was President, the IJ. 8. Govern
ment awakened to the fact that the Hot
Springs of Arkansas was the most valu
able asset. In America for the curing of
human ailments. So all of these springs
were set aside and became a park re
serve, under the direct- control and su
pervision of the Government.
It is beyond comprehension the thou
sands upon thousands of lives that have
since been saved through the healing
powers of these springs.
The waters aer so charged with radium
known technically as radio-activity—
that they accomplish results ; n the cure
of disease that would under other treat
ment be considered impossible.
The ailments that most readily yield
to these baths are Rheumatism, Gout,
Neuralgia, Malar a. Locomotor Ataxia
<earlier stages'), Rrtght’s Disease (when
not too far advanced). Liver and Bladder
troubles. Catarrhal troubles, Skin and
Blood diseases, troubles peculiar to wo
men, and other troubles of a nature kin
dred to those above mentioned.
Regarding these springs as America’s
greatest gift to the sick, the Govern
ment has never allowed them to be ex
ploited for private gain. The prices
charged for tlie baths are strictly regu
lated—hotel charges are extremely low,
and every consideration Is afforded the
vsltor.
The city of Hot Springs Is one of the
most delightful resorts to be found any
where in the world, and Its visitors are
by no means confined to those seeking
health.

boys,” said he, “who wrote me , saw
a Lee that not even his soldiers saw.”
Declaring that the biggest thing in
going to college was not what a stu
dent gets out of text books or from
lectures, the secretary expressed the
belief that students in the large col
leges were not receiving the inspiring
comradeship and leadership of that
class of teachers who give more of
themselves to their classes than they
give of the books. Lee’s sympathetic
nature and evinced interest in each one
personally, is the ideal for those who
aspire to teach you this, the secretary
declared.
“I envy,” ho said, “the men who had
the privilege when boys, of sitting at
the feet of Lee.”
Failure Was Not Failure.
Secretary Daniels declared that Lee
brought all the world to see that fail
ure was not failure, but that it was in
reality, the triumph of devotion *to
duty “which endures after the tumult
and the shouting end.” He spoke of
the statesmanship and courage shown
by I.ee when, seeing that there was no
hope for victory, he laid down his
sword at Appomattox to devote the
rest o his life to teaching the young
men of the South.

retary, “to think what would have
been the fate of the South in its su
preme hour of need, if a great leader
of the army had not been big enough
and brave enough to admit that victory
was impossible.
"Most soldiers in Lee's place would
have been tempted to listen to the re
peated counsels to send the army into
the fastnesses of the mountains and
the inaccessible swamps and keep up
an interminable warfare rather than
to save their men and their country by
facing conditions and making the most
of them. There were not wanting brave
soldiers who favored this course. Sup
pose such a one had been in command!
Sheathed His Sword.
Who can imagine the horrors and
woes of the men and women of the
South? And when l.ee sheathed his
sword lie sheathed it When he recog
nized that there was no hope for vic
tory, and that surrender was the
course of wisdom, with him the war
was over. How many of our bravo sol
diers lost their opportunity for service
in peace by failure to turn their faces
to the future, and by not recognizing
and embracing the truth that “peace
hath her victories no less renowned
than war.”
“In almost every section of the coun
try, North and South, officers returned
to their homes with no asset except to
hark back to the war and to re-debato
the issues and Questions that stirred
the country before —Sumter. You know
and I know men of parts, who never
achieved the place to which their abil
ities entitled them, because, instead of
following the example of Lee, they
gave themselves almost wholly up to
continual living over the war and de
bating the contentions that were set
tled by arbitrament of arms, thereby
separating themselves and their activ
ities from the re-establishment of
property in their sections.
The South’s Story.
"Do not misunderstand me. It was
the duty of historians to tell the
South's story and to present its rights
and duties and to teach to the youths
of the South that their fathers fought
for rights guaranteed them liy the con
stitution The temper of the people of
th!„ section, before and after the war.
was well expressed by Prof. White, of
your faculty, who being asked in a
Northern city to tell of the character
of this people, replied: ’They are tne
folks who spit no fire before the war
and have eaten no dirt since,’.
“Self-respecting, self-contained, true
to traditions, honoring memories, mak
ing no apologies, and not vaunting
themselves in the market place. This
is the character of the people who fell
under the spell of the influence of Rob
ert Edward Lee.”
Gov’t Operates Bell to
Wake One Up in Time;
Great Aid to Tourists
London. —The government has just
shown really some enterprise in insti
tuting a system whereby for a pay
ment of six cents you will be called
at any hour of the day or night by
the operator on the local exchange.
Thus an American visitor desiring
to make doubly sure that lie will he
called in time for the Continental
train, can notify the supervisor of
the exchange serving the hotel in
which he is located that he wants to
he called, say, at 7: HO in the morning.
The request, is docketed by the sn
pervisor and given to the operator,
who rings your bell at the appointed
time and keeps ringing it until you
answer.
Of course the Bystem has its disad
vantages. If you have no bedside
telephone and only want to be re
minded to take your medicine every
two hours, it would be rather discon
certing to have to walk down three
flights of stairs in the dark every
time to stop the bell ringing in the
hall, bo that you could get to sleep
again. But that can be obviated by
having an extension wire fitted to
your instrument, so that on such oc
casions it can rest with your watch
and your book and the reading lamp
on the little table next to your bed.
A more serious difficulty is the
human element of error at the ex
change, with the dread possibility of
a “wrong number.” And the English
operator holds the world's champion
ship for ringing the wrong numbers.
Negotiations Pending
Amalgamation of Two
Great Wireless Concerns
Berlin.—Negotiations now pending
promise to bring about an amalgaina
tion of the two great wireless tele
graph concerns in Germany. The
two companies are the High Frequen
cy Machine Company, which uses
Golddschmidt system, and the Tele
funken Company, which uses hig-i
frequency machines with Count Arco
patents.
For some considerable time the
two companies have been energetic
competitors. The former company
has its headquarters at Neustadt,
near Hanrger, and has worked with
considerable success, particularly in
France.
The Telefunken Company has its
chief station at Nauenm, not far from
Berlin, which is the largest of its
kind in tne world. This company has
been able to obtain a firm footing in
the United States and Russia, while
at the present time it is engaged in
building stations to link up all tiie
German colonies.
Count Arco, chief director of the
Telefunken Company, has been in
Neustadt conducting the negotiations
v. hich have been brought about by a
desire to do away with the com.' eti
tion between the two companies,
from which both have suffered. It is
noped that the combine will strength
en Germany's position in the world
of wireless telegraphy, though in
wireless circles here the opinion in
strongly held that wireless should
not be a matter for competition be
tween different nations, and that the
aim should be to have one system Tor
the whole world.

high frequency patents passed to the
