But as history, both recent and remote, bears witness a mountain as nature shaped it may also serve. Down in the Great Smokies they are talking of naming a 6,000-foot peak' Sequoyah in honor of an eighteenth-century Indian artist, a Cherokee; and only a short time ago a whole range in Antarctica was named by Admiral Byrd for one of his backers, John D. Rockefeller, Jr. - The naming of mountains after per- sons goes back even to the legendary. Do we not find North Africa's highest mountain named Atlas-after the giant who bears upon his ample shoulders the burden of our earth? Are not the Pillars of Hercules--the Rock of Gib- raltar and Mount Ayela on the oppo- site side of the straits--named for an- other mighty legendary hero who shouldered out, the hills and let the broad Atlantic sweep into the land? The Old World has many moun- tains named for men and in it an Eng- lish name will always Be the highest; for thé loftiest peak in all the world bears the name of a rather modest English surveyor and geéographer--=Sir George Everest--who made a survey of many Himalayan peaks in 1841 and was the first accurately to fix the posi tion of Mount Everest and to gauge its height. So Mount Everest is his everlasting monument--and what a monument! It reaches up into space more than five miles above dea level, New Hampshire, it is believed, leads all other American States in the num- ber of mountains named for famous persons. Though her mountains are not such awe-inspiring ambassadors to heaven as are countless other peaks named for mortals, she makes up in numbers and in the dignity of her names what she lacks in altitude; for New Hampshire is the proud possessor of the Presidential Range. The Pacific Coast evidently wanted its own mountain memorial to certain founders of the Republic. Hence it is that in the Cascade Range in Wash- ington we find also a Mount Adams, while her southern neighobr,. Oregon, has dedicated two great peaks to Washington and Jefferson. People in Washington have had a long dispute over one of their .most famous peaks. Is it proper to say To me the scene at once acquired Interest. A three-year-old --_ about to ch his own luncheon! Well, he wasted no time about it. Empha- sizing his demand with a bang of his his knife-handle upon the table, he de- clared In no uncertain terms, "I want doughnuts with syrup on them and fried eggs!" The young woman had, perhaps, noted my surprise at the proceedings, for her attitude changed." In what was almost a pleading tone she sug- gested, "Hot soup would be very nice this chilly day. See, I am going to have some, and so, is this lady." The boy looked from his mother's face across to mine, entirely uncon- vinced. He refused the soup placed before him and again demanded dough- nuts. I tried to help by commenting upon the excellence of the soup, so hot and delicious, and led on to another subject. The mother took up the cue delightfully, and we ignored the boy who continued to make a nuisance of himself. I thought that his hunger would presently force him to capitu- late, but he was overfed, so that bit of stratagem failed. The mother calmly ordered a vege: table salad for both, which the boy scorned. I Kept up a merry chatter as I saw that she was weakening under the strain of his noisy demands. But when I indicated a dessert on the menu, she smiled and ordered it. Harold was so captivated with the rosy baked apple and its whirl of snowy whipped cream topped by a red cherry, that he seized his spoon and began an onslaught. He even accept- ed a crisp cookie with his tiny glass of orange juice. We elders exchanged triumphant smiles and our visiting cards. ' It was evident ° .t the mother's manner was a new experience to the child. He watched her with puzzled eyes, and submitted to his outdoor garments without a word. She whis- pered in goodby, "Your surprised look 'was a revelation and your sympathy and tact are inspiring, I mean to per- severe." That evening it chanced that I dined at a home where the three-year-old boy is the only child. He had his own chair and low table near his mother's place, and was served In courses like te grown ups, but with special food. His milk-toma- to soup was followed by a poached egg on toast, which he managed dex- terously, then a dish of stewed prunes with an oatmeal cookie, and a small cup of properly cooked cocoa. A spoonful of strawberry ice-cream was a festive finish. He was quiet during dinner and polite to the maid--one scarcely knew he was present. Before getting ready for dinner he had had a merry romp in the hall with his father, and after dinner his mother told him his regular good-night story. Then he went to bed happily. It was all so restful, so altogether satisfactory.--Issued by the National Kindergarten Association, 8 West 40th Street, New York City.

Seattle insists upon honoring the name of Captain Rainier rather than that of Tacoma, a rival city. Rainler's name, too, has been given to a great national park. Oregon honors the name of an Eng- lishman with its loveliest mountain. Mount Hood raises its hoary head high above the surrounding country and looks down from the height of 11,000 feet upon the Columbia River, This mountain was first discovered by white men in 1792. No one knows just which member of Vancouver's ex- pedition firgt saw it and gave it a name in honor of Admiral Samuel Hood of his Majesty's Navy, Although an English surveyor had the loftiest mountain in the world named for him, an American Presi- dent was honored by having the peak that rises highest above the surround- ing country named in his honor. Ever- est has many lesser brothers hem- ming it'in. Mount McKinley, in Alas- ka, named in 1896 in honor of William McKinley, rises to a greater height above the surrounding country than any other mountain in the world.

In the Andes whoever named the peaks seemed content almost to let mortals alone. Many are named for saints but we find a fine 17,000-foot mountain named in honor of a Spanish poet who was born 200 years before Columbus began his first voyage. The poet Ruiz may be otherwise forgotten, but Mount Ruiz will keep his name fresh. The naming of mountains after peo- ple may sometimes be accompanied by ceremony. Such a ceremony took place not very long ago in the heart of the Canadian Rockies, when it was de- cided to do honor to the memory of Edith Cavell, the English nurse who during the World War, In Jasper Na- tional Park a tremendous peak was chesen--a peak that looked down upon the Glacier of the Angels and was a companion to Mount Sorrow and ly poisonous hemlock or water hem- lock weed, which is sometimes mis- taken by them for wild parsnip dur- ing the Spring and early Summer, warns both Dr. L.
