Among the wanderers who tarried with us for a time Waa Frederick O'Brien, author of Whito Shadow, in the South Seaa. Fred has made his strika in literature. It was Just like him to shine In fiction. He made a dim, flickering light In writing news. Fred came to us a straggling remnant of Ooxey's army. In which he was He stopped off In Marion . general. meals how long between I am unable to say. W, a. found work for him to do at the Star office. Where there was an opportunity for decorations, Fred could elaborate a story and trim it beautifully, but proealo facts annoyed him; he was never at home with them. I recall that the author of "Whito Shadows in tho South Seas' was sent out to cover a fire in the Huber company shops when nearly a third of tho big factory was either destroyed or damaged. This meant much to tha people of Marion generally, and a great deal to the hundreds of workmen who would bo out of employment temporarily. Fred saw the ftr and the destruction wrought, but he couldn't see Its importance to Marion. He smite his report and turned- - it over to me not more than a hundred and flftv word a Is this what yon make of it?" I asked. "That's sll." he replied, and there was a note of conscious failure In his Voice. Another reporter was sent out and he covered ths fire pretty well tn a story that made a column and a half in the 8 tar. W. G. smiled; to him one failure in the Ufa of a disaster. Frederick O' Brian was one of ths most llksbls young men that stopped over with us whlls tn search of a place In the world. He came In a box ear, but he rode away one midnight on an upholstered seat His friends entertained him In a game of draw poker until almost train time. He walked half a mile to the station, found hia train an hour late and walked back, to lose what money he had left. His final departinrs was characteristic. His friends around ths table remembered these words long after; Boys, when I am gone say anything you llks of me, anything but thie that Im easy. I know I am, but dont say WiV. .'.'.V.V.'.V .V.W.

I prefer to think It was the human warmth of his nature that kept him on the lookout for the good that ho must have behoved was In every human being. No man came to ths Star offico without getting his chance. If It was possible to make room for him. W. G. kept the matter of employing help well In his own hands, and I think now, as I thought then, that this waa for the purpose of giving the boys who came to us a fair show, that none might receive the cold shoulder. s SALT LAKE CITY .$3.95 Reductions ' Suits , Extra Pants Underwear Belts ' iti illliiiilllilillllllilHIHIllliliititlllllUll11 it." sums) C, j Tiedemann, Manager.
