""t*U. * *

Listening to the words and marking the manner of that wise and kindly man, Herbert Hoover, took me back to a story in history I have always liked. Seneca, who lived and philosophized from 4 B.C. to 65 A.D., told it. .He said an aged man who was asked the question, "What is the happiest season in a man's life?" replied: "When the spring comes, and in the soft air the buds are breaking on the trees and they are covered with blossoms, I think-How beautiful is Spring ! And wh'en the summer comes and covers the trees with th€ir heavy foliage, and singing birds are among the branches, I think-How beautiful is Summer ! When autumn loads them with their golden fruit and their leaves bear the gorgeous tint of frost, I thinkHow beautiful is Autumn ! And when it is sere winter, and there is neither foliage nor fruit, then I look up througli the leafess branches as I never could until now, and see the stars shine."

Yes, sir; Mr. Hoo.r"r,*n"lrr"lch and perhaps prophet, gave me my one big thrill out of the two big political conventions. As the street saying goes, "FIe has seen the elephant and heard the owl," and at the age of 82 he is still a great power for good in this country.
