With Col onel Rooeevelt are hie eon, Ker mit, and three scientific mem here of hie etaff— Major Edgar A. Mearne, Edmund Heller and J. Allen Loring.

The skins and skeletons of the elephants that had been killed were carried Into Nalvasha hy the na tive porters; but, us the loads were very bulky and heavy, the progress of the safari was necessarily slow, not reaching the camp until lato in the afternoon. The huge skulls of the elephants were slung on poles, and each wns carried by eight porters.

They had done some suc cessful hunting during the two or three days they had remained at Nakuru. AIL the members of the expedi tion spoke wistfully of Kermlt’s as tounding feats of endurance on safari. It seemed that ho could even wear down such tried old ve terans as Cunninghame and Tarl ton. The latter was looking very much worse for his hard hunting in company with Kermlt. According to Tarlton, Kermlt ab solutely did not know the meaning of the word “fear,” and no hardship was too great for him. Distance was no obstacle, and he would as soon travel 40 miles a day as 20. Ills foot running had greatly Im pressed Tarlton and Indeed every one In the expedition; and no more than one occasion Kermit had run down on foot fleet-footed antelope or gazelle, and then killed them after a long chase across the sun burned plain. On Monday, Oct. 25, we all left Nairobi for Lundianl. We reached Nakuru at 3 o’clock In the morning, and here collected our porters and horses. Cunning hame, Tarlton nnd I worked all through the small hours of the morning to see that they were all got onto the train. At daybreak wo reached Molo, on the summit of the Mau Escarpment, and at an al titude of 8300 feet above the sea level. This is the highest point on the Uganda Railway. The railway up to this point passes through great forests and through occa sional open glades. The air yvas fresh nnd bracing, nnd had a cold snap to It. From the Mau Sum mit we ran down through fine open grass plains, edged with belts of fine forests, to I.ondtant at an al titude of some 7410 feet. (Continued in Our Next Issue) DEATHS MRS. PHOEBE J.

MASTERY OF DETAILS IS ONE SECRET OF SUCCESS By S. W. STRAUS, President American Society for Thrift. THE poet Goethe, who spent near ly an entire lifetime In the composition of one of his master- pieces, once wrote that “Gen ius is an infinite capacity for tak ing pains." It is said that Thomas Gray worked with in finite pains for seven years on his immortal ele gy said by many critics to mark the high- 8. W. STRAUS est literary accomplishment of any man. In similar manner, an “infinite capacity for taking pains” general ly spells success in the world of business. Almost any successful business man will agree that it is largely the little leaks that constitute the great danger of a business. He will also tell you that, by the same token, it is the attention to details and the mastery of them them that brings success. In our personal lives —in our am bitious endeavors to accomplish success —the same rules hold true. Through the steady, successful accomplishment of details we move forward. Through successive fail ure in small motives we gradually drift downward to failure and pos sible ruin. Very much of the essentials of good thrift lies 1n our ability to master the little things of life. The successful executive so builds his organization that leaks and lost motion will be done away with to the greatest possible extent It is true, of course, that men fail many times because they try to car ry too many details, but this does not mean that such details are not worthy of attention. The fault in these cases lies in inadequate di rect lon. To be truly thrifty one must be thorough. And thoroughness means taking pains—infinite pains—in all essentials. crystal!

A RULE THAT ISN'T GOLDEN In an Oklahoma town, a store re cently closed its doors —a commer cial failure. This store advertised itself as the 'Golden Rule Grocery and Market." Its “golden rules" were still streaming In the windows In the form of hideous placards, even though the Sheriff had closed the front doors. These placards read: “We meet anybody’s prices;” “Our 75c on the dollar sale is now on.” “Of course,” says an editorial in The Progressive Grocer, "any store run on such a ‘golden rule’ would eventually fall. The one golden rule of retailing that this merchant never learned was this: “'You can’t both give your profits away and keep if “That’s why the Sheriff closed the business. “Almost every day some one ex plodes one of our pet theories. How often have you heard this phrase: ‘Competition is the life of trade!' “Extravagent competition In any line is wasteful and leads to ruin, and you soon learn that competi tion may be the ‘death’ of trade as wel las the ‘life’ of it.

In the wide doorway, between the House and the sun parlor, the glimmer of a white clad figure pierced through the gloom, and a door facing east and a door facing west both swung on their hinges. And on the floor, crumpled into an un gainly heap, lay the inert form of Douglas Raynor, its outline indistinguishable in the sudden complete darkness, till a click of a switch-button sounded and the bright lights flashed out. ‘The Affair at Flower Acres’ By Carolyn Well* This Thrilling Series Starts in an Early Issue of The AUGUSTA HERALD MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 29 THREE HOME RUNS< BY KRAFT DEFEAT MEMPHISGLUB, 7-3 FORT WORTH, Texas. —Fort Worth celebrated Sunday night for two momentous things have hap pened simultaneously. One Is the fact that the Texas Leaguers Fort Worth Panthers made it two—all in games won In the fifth Dixie baseball classic hy winning Sunday from Memphis, of the Southern As sociation, 7 to 3. The other is that Kraft is hitting again. To Kraft, the home run king of the minors with 55 for the season, goes the credit for winning the game, for, after four days of miser able showing in which he garnered two hits in 17 trips to the plate he jumped upon the offerings of War moth, the crack left-hander of the Memphis Chickasaws and on each of his first three trips to the plate, slammed a home run. Saturdav Kraft struck out on each of his five trips to the plate. Score: Memphis 001 000 002—3 7 0 Fort Worth .. 302 010 Olx—7 10 2 Warmoth, McGrew and Yaryan; Pate and Bischoff. MOSCOW CABARETS Are Dull With Profiteers In Exile v MOSCOW.—The wholesale de portation to Sibera and the north of profiteers and others, have had a bad effect on the Russian res taurants and night-life resorts Whereas a year ago Moscow was as gay with smart restaurants, cabarets and cases as the liveliest American city, It is today as dull and depressing as a New England village on a Blue Sunday. It Is not an uncommon sight nowadays to find more waiters In a Moscow restaurant than actual patrons. This is due partly to the disappearance of the profiteers, who were the most regular and liberal frequenters of the restaur ants, and partly to a fear on the part of those left behind that they may share a like fate if they give evidence of having sufficient mon ey to patronize the more expensive eating places. After partaking of expensive re pasts at Moscow’s best restaurants, Russian business and professional men have undergone the experi ence of being cross-examined by. police officers as to how they came* into possession of sufficient money, to patronize such (extravagant pa-, ravanseries. #**«- — 4 "f' Leopold and Loeb at least 'earij console themselves by reflecting; that they will never havs to jyatch a Greb-Tunney fight, * .
