"6 ARE GRADUATED AT ARMY SCHOOLS Students at Walter Reed Complete Studies in Three | THE EVENING THE EVENING STORY EMMING CULVER unlocked the door and pushed War rena into the house ahead of himself. “Well, we're home,” said. “And I'm glad of it.” The place smelled damp and dusty, as Indeed it was, having been closed since the death of Hem Culver's first wife. Her picture faced the opening door and Warrena saw it before any- thing else. he Courses. nly are the high schools of the | @ity sending their cohorts out into the | 1d at this graduation period of the | but the United States Army is sending men, prepared by study | ttered from Alaska 10 the Philippines, to conquer disease| and improve the living conditions of | their comrades in arms and their fel- low human beings wherever they may be stationed. Sixty-five men were graduated ves terday afternoon from the Army medi cal, dental and veterinary schools at Walter Reed Hospital. Of this num ber 44 were graduated from the medi cal school, 10 from the dental school and 11 from the veterinary school. Medals were awarded to the follow ing: The Hoff medal, to Capt. Charles R. Lanahan, Medical Corps; the Stern- | berg medal, to First Lieut. William O. | French; the Dental medal, to Capt.| George R. Kennebeck, and the Hos | kins medal, to Capt. Harry J. Juzek, Veterinary Corps. Honor Roll Graduates. The following were placed on the | honor roll: Maj. Charles G. Souder; | Capts. Charles R. Lanahan and ett Le C. Cook; Iirst Licuts. O. ¥rench, jr.; George E. Armstrong. Willlam Kraus and Hugh R. Gilmore, it.. ail of the Medical Corps; Capt.| George R. Kennebeck and First Lieut. Hugh D. Phillips of the Dental Corps, and Capts. Harry J. Juzek and Jacob J. Hartman of the Veterinary Corps. Maj. Gen. Merritte W. Ireland, the Surgeon General, addressed the grad- uates and their friends. He first out lined the accomplishments of the medical center, and pointed out that the center had done much toward the prevention of disease. He said that the admission rate to the hospital be- cause of disease was lower than ever bafore in the history of the Army. He also pointed but that the death rate from disease was the lowest in the ver- jen. Walter D. McCaw, as- sistant to the Surgeon General, said: “You young graduates will be ex- pected to contribute toward the glory and accomplishments of the Army Medical Corps. Judging from past experience, we believe that you will give us your best. Your duties are outlined in your commissions. Education One-Sided. “It is too bad,” he continued, “that our education must be so one-sided. The average intelligent man wants culture, and we do not have much time while studying to acquire it. The human brain fags out if limited to| one thing. The greatest of scientists, however, have (he most culture. Use what spare time you have in the fu- ture to study the drts and acquire some cultural knowledge. Do the best in the environment in which you find vourself. Do your job well and stick to it. The future is yours, the past is ours. Go, brothers—and may God be with you.” - The program consisted of music by the Army Band, invocation by Chap- Iain Alfred C. Oliver, jr.; address by Gen, MeCaw, presentation of diplomas by Gen, Ireland and benediction by Chaplain Benjamin- F. McGeary. The following received diplomas: ‘my Medical School—Maj. Charles G.

But she looked voung enough to be Martha Culver's A thin, white lace | daughter. “Well, this is Martha's picture,” Hem said, looking at it. “Now you don’t have to have it there if you don’t want it, Rena. Put it anywhere you wish—in the storeroom, for all I care, Martha was a good woman, but what's the use of eternally hetchling vourself over the past? She had her day.” ‘Wairena felt a little shock of sur- prise. Hem had said just what she was thinking. She did not want Martha's picture there. Why it would be almost as bad as having the woman herself forever standing in judgment over one. Whatever she did Martha's picture would see, even though the faded eyes were averted. Aside from that picture of Martha the house suited Warrena very well. Of course, she would make some changes. Might as well begin while Hem’s interest was at its height. To- morrow she would look everything over and make up her mind what she done. When the tomorrow came she was that there was nothing of Mar s in the house but the picture. Never had a house so slightly ex- pressed the personality of the woman who had cared for it. Warrena was a little puzzled. She made a little inventory of things according to their usefulness and desirability and e list of things needed. When Hem came home to supper_she had this paper ready for him. She took it up from beside her plate after she had poured his tea. “Our bedroom must be papered and painted, and I want a new rug. I shall do the furniture myself—paint it ivory with a bright design. Of course, there'll have to be curtains CLEAN SYSTEM KEY TO SUCCESS ‘Why Thousands of People Fail and Never Know the Reason! ‘The Collins Case an Example! Arthur T. Collins was a failure at 46.

Her hus- band was gazing at her with coldly astonished eyes. “I can't have that,”” he said. “Cant’ have what?" “I can't have things torn up this way. It will cost money. I guess you don’t take into consideration how much I spent on our wedding trip. I've come home to work. You're to keep the house—just as it is. It suits me plenty good enough.” Warrena tingled. She looked from her husband's face and back again. She had never before noticed what small eyes and what a long upper lip Hem Culver had. “Dear me!” she fluttered. “I've got to have things changed some. Hem, T can’t—-" She felt tears gushing and bit her lip to stay them. For answer, Hem reached over and helped himself to more mashed po- tatoes. Warrena had turned out to be a good cook. He enjoyed his food. ‘Well, he was to be congratulatel on gotting a woman who knew how to turn her hand to housework. Of course, he'd have to humor her a lit- tle, but not to the extent of allowing her to spend his money. After he had gone to work the next day Warrena went to look at the pic- ture of her predecessor. She had in- tended to move the picture, but some- how she had not done so. Martha seemed to have such a look of saying: “All T got out of my experience was the right for my picture to occupy this place on the wall.” It did seem that way. As the days went and Warrena Gires or OtH STAR, - WASHINGTON, learned to know her husband better and to like him less she acquired a certain affection for the pictured face of Martha Culver. She and Martha seemed to have such a lot in common. One day as she sat sewing, glanc- ing from time to time at the picture, it tell with a crash to the floor. The cord by which it hung had given way. Warrena, springing up to raise it, saw with dismay that the glass was shattered. She also saw something else—a folded paper that had evidently been tucked into the back of the frame. Martha was speaking to her. She realized that as she read the carefully written lines adressed to Hem's second wife: “I know Hem will marry again and T know he'll get somebody young and T know she'll have the same kind of time with him I had. He's terribly tight; that's his worst fault. The house will need fixing up and he won't hear to spend a cent for it. But I'm leaving some money for it. T got a lit- tle legacy I never let Hem know about, but I got sick so fast I shan’t have a chance to use it. So I'm leaving it for his second wife. 1 hope she'll get a lot of good out of it.” There followed in- structions where to find the secret hiding place, and Warrena flew to obey them. She found a large brown envelope sealed into an old coffee can under the eavs in the attice. It con- taind $300. To_ Warrena, who had never pos- sesed 5o much money, it seemed a. for- tune. It contalned possibilities for the accomplishment of all the things she wanted done. An hour later she returned from downtown with a new frame for Mar- tha's picture—a beautiful frame of fine wood, quite different from the ugly gllt square with its tarnish and flyspecks. When Hem came home the first thing he saw was his former D. O, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1927. wife's countenance in this new in- closure. “Say! Martha’s all dressed up, eh?” he said. “What did you do that for?” “Martha and I are good friends,” ‘Warrena answered. Hem stared a little. “I thought you'd be jealous of her and snatch down that picture first thing. What you got there?” “Samples of wallpaper. I'm going to have this room done oved.
