MITCHEL It was ill tlie late autumn. Editb and I were wuIUIuk In the woods kick ing up tlie dead leaves, for there were finlv a few left tlie trees. We were both youiiK. I twenty two. Edith eight een 1 was sweet ou Edith, and when man of tliat age is sweet on a girl the first idea that enters his head is that she can only love a heroic per sonage who coinhiiU'S every manly at tribute. When a man of forty gets sweet on a woman lie l'ears that she won't consider that he has money enough to make !t worth her while to oiarry him. While Edith and 1 were walking along to the pleasant sound of the kicked leaves I was thinking about how many virtues 1 must possess to win her. it was in wartime, and 1 naturally supposed that military glory would count for good deal. "We're getting quite a number of instances of bravery from this war in Europe." 1 remarked. "Yes." she replied, "they're splendid. Just think of a young earl not yet thirty years old. with the life of a no bleman before him, giving bis life for his country." "Would you like to be the widow of such a man?" "I would grieve for him, but I would glory in having bad such a husband." This was not encouraging for me. a man of peace. It was some time be fore 1 tried to find out any more of those traits I did not possess, tbe ab sence of which would induce Editb to turn me down. "1 read an account some time ago," I said, "of a Belgian soldier who was placed in front of a company of Ger mans who were attacking his country men. Seeing him. tbe Belgians low ered their rifles. 'Fire!' he cried. 'For heaven's sake, Are!' A volley swept the Belgian and tbe Germans away to gether." "What a noble sacrifice!" exclaimed Edith fervently. "Do you suppose." 1 said, "that If you had been that Belgian's wife and a witness of the scene and his country men had looked to you to approve his order to tire you could have made the sacrifice yourself?" This was a poser. Edith made no reply for quite awhile then she said that she would have preferred to com promise by having them tire on her. \vns not disposed to let her out in this way and persisted in having a direct answer, whereupon she said that she was afraid tlie test would be too much for her. She might be able to make the sacrifice and she might not. Of one tiling she was certain. Her heart would be buried with that noble Bel gian. It was apparent to me that to win Editli 1 must do something heroic. "Do you know," I said. "I have con cluded that this war is a struggle be tween reaction and progress. I con sider it the duty of America to Join in It oil the side of progress." "So do I." was the prompt reply. "What is true of a nation is true of one of its individual citizens." "What do you mean?" "That it is m.v duty to fight for the world's progress. I'm going abroad to enlist" Editb looked grave. "Don't you think it my duty?" "No: 1 don't" "Why not? Haven't yon agreed with me that it is our duty as a nation to light on the side of progress, and what is the duty of a nation is tbe duty of its individual citizens V" "Yes 1 suppose so But 1 think it would be very foolish for you to go all the way over there to—to get your self shot" 1 looked down sldewise at Editb. The idea of my making .myself food for powder evidently troubled her. "I sail next week." There was no comment on this for awhile. Presently Edith asked me in a faltering voice why I had said noth ing of this before I was some time framing my answer. When it came 1 spoke in a choked voice: "Because I dread a parting." "With whom?" She kept her eyes bent on the ground. "You." I faltered. I went on to tell her that I loved her. and she confessed that my love was returned. "IIow hard for us to part." I said, "oil t'ie eve of oiir betrothal!" "We will run ut." she saiil firmly. "My duty calls." "What ihityV" "To progress. clvi!i7/itl""i. Tile cause of freedom." "Let it '-a!l "I mil-lit h-'ve an opportunity to die one of those noble were "hipped to the old home yester day. his two brothers going with the body- Nice Prospect. .'V deaths we have been talking about." "You'll !u no st'.ch thing. You'll stay nt home." "But think how proud you will be of yonr soldier lover." "I don't want a soldier lover." "Must 1 go unsupported by the knowledge that you are willing to sac rifice"- "You'll not g» at all." We were sitting on a low horizontal limb of a tree. Edith threw her arms around me to hold me from going to fight for an idea which I had no idea of fighting for. 1 gave in at. last and consented to remain at home. After we were married one night we heard burglars below. My wife in or der to prevent my going down to at tack them locked the door and threw the key out from the window.

After re turning to Chicago in the early autumn of 1914 these singers were disbanded, and through a series of fortunate circumstances, Mr- Hann, co-operating with Dav "s Bros., succeeded in reorganiz ing the present Hann's Jubilee Singers, who for seven years 'ere known on the Chitauoua and .vceum platform as the famous Midland Jubilee Singers. Hence the singers now accom panying Mr. and Mrs. Hann have not been Heard in the West for more than two years, and should not be confused with those heard in Western Chautau qua work last summer. The pres ent organization is stronger than ever and beyond doubt one of the very greatest aggregations of col ored singers in the United States today. In October, 1914, their persent Pacific Coast tour of 1 0, 000 miles began at Kansas City and it will close April 30, 1915, at St. Paul, Minn. Stung.
