france of lives fashioned by home-living, of e. family environment that has. been assembled bit by bit like It Warm-toned molalo.
The head of such s. home could be none other than
strong, loyal and intensely human. But Mr. Taft gave more qualities than these to the formula of living. The broad-slgsslds-red Yale athlete had the priceless gift optimism, and from his altitude of s. clean youth and audacious courage he looked across all barriers to achievement.
To him. law was not only the most fascinating of
illiiches, but a. breathing organism in whose functions he Lada port, and to whose judicial brain he looked for inspiration. He practiced law as he performs the small- Qsst act, with scrupulous attention and with all his might. 'sl-.l gave it the best he had, ond was cheerfully ¢0i\¢¢h¢ Iith its rewards. Always hs was willing tc meet fate Chan-to give it ounce for ounce of effort for success. . A life framed consistently on these lines has given he William H. Taft of today a smile like a sunburst, a ,ahh friendliness of greeting that can no more be as- rimed than good breeding, and s grasp of the hand as

1 'served him. The silver voice was never the voice of Qiedlency. but of the right, and to that his ear was

Charlie inherits from both sides a largo share of

"Wouidn't it turn your licnd, Charlie." some one

One of the servants is u Filipino nomcd Monlco, and is endeared to Mr. and Mrs, Taft through long service when the secretary was governor gcnorel of the Philtpplnua. Tho houso is ililed with souvenirs. each
of-pearl, that decorate the hall, are memontos of
trips to Japan. Russia. and China. The exquisitely curved furniture library was used in the palace of
Mnlncanun, the governor's rt.-sldenoe in Manila. The wall-hanging displayed above the mantel is Japa- nese. it shows a long vista through the giant crypto- merla. trees of Nikko, with the sacred red lacquer bridge. that has never boon lrodden by any i‘ot save the eniperor's.
On one side of the Nom stands a cabinet illled
