Instead of a Jireckled lad, the Camp Car set down at the Arch a fashionably dressed young woman who looked twenty-five years old, though she was only seventeen. There was nothing about her to suggest the Seroine, except, perhaps a determined chin. . But the story came out in the As sembly Hall that night. There had a terrible tornado in Kansas The small town of Valora had been almost wiped ont, and the debris had commenced :to burn. May Elsworth, living about fifty miles away, had heard of the disaster, by telephone May had borrowed a neighbor's car, covered the fifty miles, at night, over bad roads, in a little more than an hour, and had organized a fire-fight- ing brigade among the bewildered citi- zens. She had dashed into no less than three burning ruins and rescued people who had been pinned under the wreckage. The telegraph operator had: been badly hurt, but she found out how to patch up the instruments and sent out messages for help. Though she was in training for a nurse and any delay in returning to her hospital after her two weeks vacation might imperil her diploma she' had stayed in Valora for over 3 month, without pay, nursing the sick feeding the hungry, comforting the children who had 'been left orphans and making herself the guardian angel of the town. Not that May would tell this about herself. She was ready to talk about the disaster, but 'not her own part in it. The Director had to do that. And when the Second Clan Medal of Hohor was given her, the Camg agreed with a mighty shout that it could not be better bestowed.

Out into the yellow sea and the Eastern sea juts a peninsula of more | than 84,000 square miles. It is an extension of Manchuria, and for centuries was under the suzerainty of China: In old atlases the peninsula is cal- led Korea. For years it was known as "The Hermit Kingdom." For after the Chino-Japanese war the land became an independent king- dom, although even then claimed jurisdiction over the coun- try. But Korea enjoyed her free- dom only a short time as an inde- pendent nation. It was on August. 29, 1918, that Japan formally annexed Korea as an integral part of the kingdom. The old name was changed to Chosen In Japanese this name is divided in- to two syliables--Cho-Sun. This means "The Land of the Morning Calm." Perhaps no other name would bet- | ter suit the land which was once cal- led the Hermit Kingdom, for its peo- ple are indeed very calm. So calm have they beén considered by Japan and the rest of the world that it isn't generally known that there was some opposition to the annexation of the kingdom ,and that a republic was formed and a president elected.
