A Glamorous, Wistful Figure. As melodramatic in the manner of his death as he was colorful in life, Colonel T. E. Lawrence stands out as one of the truly unique personalities of our time. In an’'age when life seems more than ever to be molding men in a common cast, and polishing them tb a uniform pattern, “Lawrance of Arabia” went his own extraordinary way, undis- turbed by any thoughts of what the world might {want him to be or do.

The explosion was so great that hardly a building t Seattle to Capitol Hill was without broken or cracked win- dows.
