...bone awkwardly; his practice limped thereafter. Moving to the seashore, he tried again, became hopelessly deranged, attempted to burn his home. His wife worked as a postmistress, retrieved him from an asylum. Paralysis crept through his legs. But his clouded mind cleared for the final instant before death. "Dear wife," he said. For her, shattered by faithful, grievous years, it was enough...
...HERE'S TO DEAR OLD YALE, TEAR HER DOWN, TEAR HER DOWN was the caption once run under a drawing by one Robert Osborne in the Yale Record (funny monthly).

Dismissed soldiers must be given work and a modicum of pay or they will revert to banditry, a profession which most of them forsook to join the colors. Last week Finance Minister T. V. Soong, efficient Harvard graduate, announced a bond issue of $30,750,000 to carry out his economy program of disbanding half China's 356,500 troops (TIME...
