Through a letter of inquiry to the
Bureau of Communication, American
Red Cross, Washington, D. C., John
Leonard was informed that his son,
Joseph Leonard, had died of pneumonia
i at the U. S. hospital, Shirley, England.
Joseph Leonard was a student at Marquette from October, 1916, until
ne, 1917, when he entered the serv-
h and was enrolled in the Econom-
department. He was very popular
There must be an art to removing such a thing as dust and Matt is a post-
graduate in the gentle art of which mother is mistress. His coat of mail
in which he goes about making war on King Dirt consists of an apron made
in the style which butchers and pattern-makers affect, a brown coat which
bears witness to former use, but is perfectly willing to stand use for a few
years more, a big black stogie which, if it tastes as it looks must be enough
to frighten the dust away without any gentle efforts on Matt's part, a stiff
hat which it seems to me has been advertised as a shedder of all things so
superfluous as dirt, and then at his other extremity, a pair of rubbers (to
be sure we have seen larger).
Can you make Matt smile? The co-eds can. You've missed a good time if you haven't seen his eyes twinkle and the corners of his nose and mouth wrinkle up delightfully at anything the least bit funny-but dirt.
To show you fellows that he appreciates the real style of feminate beauty as shown at Marquette, I'm going to tell you the story that he told the other day. "Faith," he said sadly, "these gurls all look alike to me. I don't know whether it is that I am getting old or if it is that they all do look alike, but it seems to me that I say 'Good morning' to the same gurl all day long."
So next time you see him say "Good-morning" to the red shirt qnd black stogie and the smile.
h his fellow students. The posi- 11 he held in the hearts of the boys Jest expressed by the way they Jke of him. He was always known a "good scout" and a "real fellow." his former student Dean Atkinson a:
He was surely a fine fellow. I know he was lived very well by the J and by the faculty as well. I am a to say that he was a personal of mine."
Hs father received the following let- from Lieut. A. M. Kiss of the Com- ^cation department:
the time this letter reaches you,

MARQUETTE U TO AID FOCH SWORD FUND
KNECHT MADE
SUGGESTION
Presentation to Be Made
At Georgetown
University.
In Spring
Marquette will take an active part in the raising of funds to supply the sword to be presented to Marshall Foch when he visits this country.
This project was started upon Father Noonan's receiving a communication addressed by the Very Rev. A. J. Burrowes, S. J., Provincial of the Missouri Province of the Society of Jesus. This communication was sent to the presidents of the various Jesuit universities and schools of the province:
"Marshall Foch, leader of the Allied armies, is shortly to he received into the French academy. One of the ceremonies of this reception is the presentation of a sword to the new Academician. M. Marcel Knecht, who is a member of the French high commission in
th< country and professor in the University of Nancy, and who, it may be remembered, visited the University last spring, has suggested to Very Rev. Joseph H. Rockwell, S. J., of the Maryland-New York province, that the Jesuit schools of this country present the marshal with this sword. Such a gift would be quite appropriate, M. Knecht added, because the marshal himself is an old Jesuit "boy", having received his education at the Jesuit college of St. Clement at Metz; and besides, Marshal Foch's brother, Germain, is a Jesuit Father of the Toulouse province. Father Brown of Marquette university, well remembers the brother, Father Foch, as he lived with him many years.
All the Jesuit schools of the United States have taken up the project with enthusiasm. It is needless to add that the students at all the institutions have joined in with whole-hearted determination.
The presentation is to be made at Georgetown university, amid circumstances of unusual impressiveness. It will take place sometime during March or April, when the marshal is expected to visit this country."
Marquette has had her presidents of
big corporations and business enter-
prises; she has had her philanthro-
pists; in the war that just ended she
has had many boys who performed
many valiant feats. Today Max Wolfe,
a medical student, is the hero of the
hour.
Max saved two children from
drowning in Lake Michigan Sunday.
Wm. Branagan and Harold McGrath, senior Arts & Science, will return to school shortly. McGrath is waiting for his release from the navy.
"Shorty" Schweers recently received his discharge from the navy and is now back at the Law school.
The lives he saves were Raymond Miller, 10-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Miller, 458 Seventeenth street, and Louis Fehrenbach, 10 years old, 1601 Cherry street. William Miller, 9 years old, brother of Raymond, was drowned.
Heard Screams.
The boys were playing at the foot of Mason street, when William ran out on the ice. As the ice gave way his companions ran to his aid, but the ice broke under them. Wolfe, who was walking along the shore, heard their cries and plunged in after them.
"I was at the place where the accident occurred with my little daughter and saw Wolfe pull the two little boys out of the water," said Joseph Huebl,
