After he"came back from Washington Bryan did not return to school. "He has seen so much and been praised so much It is time he settled down for a while and thought tt all over," his mother said. This fall, however, the fourteenyear- old sandy-haired, freckled youth again is attending regularly the little school from which he and 19 others set out last March into a raging blistard which took the lives of several of the children despite Bryan's heroic efforts to save them.

Croom, young Okmulgee wife, is the first woman !n the United States to be recommended to the War department for an instructor's certificate in rifle and pistol marksmanship. Barred, because of her sex, from membership in the Oklahoma team competing in the national matches at Camp Perry, Ohio. Mrs. Croom entered the match unattached. Although she ranked fourth among Oklahoma's best shooters, she was not permitted to represent Oklahoma because a "woman could not make a suitable instructor." Entered at the Camp Perry meet as a private citizen. Mrs.--Groom averaged 98 per cent of her scores. So well did her record stand out that she was recommended for an Instructor's certificate.

Crisfield, Md.--After playing hermit for 23 years and using up 500 decks of cards playing solitaire, a former Jersey City lawyer li married to a Jersey City woman. , Charles Hardenberg, better known as the hermit of Watts Island, is the bridegroom. Miss Katherine Seipel, Jersey City, Is the bride. They were o married at the Methodist parsonage at Accomac, Va., by the Rev. Is. J. Hunt For 23 years Hardenberg has lived alone on little Watts Island, about ten miles from here. In 1908 he left his law practice in Jersey City and landed on Watts island. He w-as then thirty-three, and he has been alone ever since untif'he took his bride home with him. Hduse Built in 1&74. - > • The house to which the hermit of W&Ms Island has taken his bride is made of brick and was builr. in 1S74 by the government for a Dghtkeeper. Later an automutic light was installed and the house was sold to Harfiesiberg's brother. Watts island was discovered in 1620, and. at one time was a flourishing term with fruit trees and a large acreage of tillable land. Hardenberg hasn't a radio, he keeps BO dogs. Three chickens are the only creatures there beside himself and his brtde.- . |4as Lived 23 Yaarc His provisions have been "brought from Crisfield and when he got tired of canned goods he caught a few fish or took up a few oysters from the locks in front of his door. Hardenberg has lived for 28 years a life of solitude, his only companion the surf beating on the lonely shore of his Island. Once he went to New York for the funeral of a relative, and an occasional visit to Crisfield has been his only touch with civilization. Once a playwright, Wilard Robinson, put In to Watts island on his yacht, and later created a part In a play, "The Sea Window," called Charley Watts, which was supposed to be Hardenberg. Although he had one of the largest libraries in Jersey City, Hardenberg has few books on Watts islMMl in spite of the wonderful weather if ?al.ked ™&y *" coJPeti + tio" there isn't going to be a cage team during the whole season and sort of to help while away the long weeks. spoiled the race.
