It Is still talked bolng about. It was the longest Interview Foch granted dur ing his tour of 42 slates. The Arable legend, written on a postal card by the janitor, one Charles Schweitzer, was an open sesame. The words formed the name of two engagements in which the Janitor, then a sergeant, and Foch, then a lieutenant, fought with units of the First Colonial regiment in Algiers In 1877. It was learned. Foch remembered the names, and knowing that only a comrade of his Algerian regiment would know them, sent for him forthwith. "The marshal is the same kindly man and good soldier thut he was In Algiers,' the janitor scld, after his visit with the generalissimo. "Who knows? I might have been a general If I'd stayed In the army with him." "Djil-Alla- h -- 4 - w That Mrs. Burd d serve "the boys under shell tire," thousands of the A. E. F. will testify.

In recent years there has been a growing movement in the erection of community buildings by the municipality through taxation. This method also has Its distinct advantages. Maintenance expenses of community buildings are met by dues, feen, rentals and receipts from entertainments, profits and concessions. Some of the best organizations maintain their buildings entirely by annual dues. In the case of buildings financed by an Individual or by an Industrial concern, a community association Is generally formed which guarantees the maintenance of the building as a condition of tlffe donation.

Sheep King This is the latest portrait of. Senator Robert Nelson Stanfield of Oregon, the young man he was born In llSW. Oregon In 1877 who rodu over former Senator George A. Chamberlain on the crest tf the Republican avalanche of 1920. There are only nine lines about him in the Congressional &. directory autobiographies, but they contain these words "America's largest producer of wool and mutton." His father was one of the California pioneers of '49, swept from Illi' ' nois by that wonderful trek, but In the early '50s the elder Stanfield moved to Oregon, and took up one of the first cattle ranches In eastern Oregon. Young Bob learned ranching from the grass roots up and got bis schooling In a country school house. The Bitter Root ranch of the Stanfields went the way of many another, as the cattlemen grudgingly admitted that the Umatilla country was more naturally dowered for sheep than for stock. So In 1904 the youth who had fought sheep herders went himself Into the sheep business and prospered mightily. By 1911 his flocks were grazing their swaths out of Oregon Into Idaho, Montana and Colorado. Today Senator Stanfield owns more siieep, probably, than any man In America. Every year he winters 800,000 sheep. BENDS r i f Maybe She'll Also Like Us This Is the latest portrait of Mrs. L. George, bride of the English novelist, who Is here on his second lecturing tour.
