Highly Honored. He was invited by another to meet the chief executive. This to him was “a_high honor, indeed.” President Harding had greeted a long line of callers from all parts of the country, in his private office. The line filed past him departing by another door. At the end of the line, unknown to the Presldent, was the pitiably marred veteran. . Busily engaged in speaking to each person in hisline of callers, the Presi- dent did not netice who was coming at the last, and, as is his custom, turned to grasp the hand of the boy. His eyes suddenly looked full into the war-torn face. He caught his breath. His eyes filled with tears There was an eloquent silence. Then the chief exccutive, still grasping the oldier’s right hand, placed his left hand kindly upon the lad's shoulder, 4 and, looking straight into the form- less face, inquired, with deep con- cern, into his welfare. Was he being well cared for? The veteran, true to his cheerful, happy disposition, replied he was pleased with the care he had received and honored to meet the President of the United State: But, to those who knew the hard- luck talo of Orpha Taylor, private, first class, 38th Infantry, it was noth- ing short of amazing that the victim of such misfortune could stand before his President and, smiling as best his f?.co allowed, speak with such real cheer.

Upon his re- turn to this country he was at one time accldentally placed in a hospital for the insane, where he was forcibly detained until the error was discov- ered. He was discharged from the service June 29, 1920, With only praise for the govern- ment and the treatment he has re. | celved, the young man said he was eagerly waiting for the artificial n, which the Veterans' Bureau is having especially constructed for him, and which will transform his appearance.
