Morgan-t Romaine, whom destiny had

(‘harles Groehl, the mine owner, was on-

Welsh singer and his daughters at a con-
cert at one of the Mormon meeting houses.
As is the custom in that quaint com-
munity. a dance followed the concert. Tile
dance began with prayer. Charles Groehl
asked to be presented to the golden haired
one of the “Tout Girls." The other sisters
were brunettes.
He guided her about the floor of the
meeting house to the strains of a slow, old
fashioned waltz. While they waltzed a

whom he held in his arms, this most
precious bit of womanhood. would be his
wife. Some time, lf it were aaous distant,
her love should crown his life.
No Impetuous Wooer This,
But Determined to Win
His wooing Was not lmpethous. The
Tout family were gifted musicians. For
each girl a public career Was beginning.

She ceased playing the violin on the
streets after she made her debut on the
stage. It was in "Little Denmark" in
London. Ivan Caryll,' the composer of
“The Pink Lady." met her at a country
house party.
“You're just the one I want for my
new play," he said, “ but you must change
your name. ‘Tout' is honest but impos-
sible." He scrutinized her. “You are so
young. so fresh, so pink. you remind one
of the dawn; you shall be Hazel Dawn."
She accepted the name extemporaneous-
ly bestowed. Ivan Caryll cabled the man-
ager who was to produce it: “Have found
the girl for the Pink Lady." “Send her
along," was the cabled response.
Her Stage Career Unusual
In Many Disappointments
So Hazel Dawn's sun rose on Broadway
—but not her star. She was the central
figure of “The Pink Lady” but not its star.
She played an important part in “The Lit-
tle Cafe," but owing to differences with
Miss Alma Francis, withdrew from the
cast. She_-was elevated to stardom in
"The Debutante." but that. play was shad;
owed by a sheriff and lived briefly in
New York. She was greeted by the critics
as "Lillian Russell. junior." The star rose
only to flicker and go out.
But Hazel Dawn's determination did not
abate. The failure of “The Debutante"
was not her failure, she amt-med. 5119

T is rarely that an opportunity occurs
I to make a truly scientific observation
of a waterspout. Yet an engineer on
board an American schooner had what ls
said to be an unique experience of this kind
0! the coast of New South Wales.
Fourteen complete Waterspouts formed off
the shore where he was at work with a
theodollte, and he made careful measure-
ments of them. The largest spout conalsted
of two cones, connected by. a pipe-shaped
spout. The top of the upper cone. which
was inverted, was 6,014 feet above the sea.
Each cone was about 100 feet in diameter at
the base. dimlnlshlng gradually until it
merged into the spout. The length of the
cones was about 250 feet each, leavlng 4,500
feet for the length of the spout connecting
them.
S for our leading families to engage
genealogists to trace their ancestry
back to royal personages of the past, like
William the Conqueror, Richard the Lion
Hearted, or Charlemagne. Even in our day
these genealogists thrive. and oceans of ink
are spilled -1n the service of Heraldic
genealogy.
But there is another form of genealogy
more recent and more scientific. 'It is blo-
loglcal genealogy, and while it agrees that
our leading families may be descended from
kings and emperors, it insists that the
humblest families are descended from
royalty as well. Further it is able to fish
up for persons. of the most snobblsll descent
ancestors in the twentieth or thirtieth gen-
eration. whom. for the sake of their self-
respect they would certainly dlsown.
The process is something like this. We all

and so on. In the tenth generation back our
ancestors, barring cousin marrlages, number
1,024. in the twentieth generation they num-
- ber 1,048,576, in the twenty-ninth generation
they pass the billion mark. A pretty wide-
branched ancestral tree!
The meaning of these figures is that we.
all of us, are descended from every living
fertile soul in the country from which we
came. say eight hundred or a thousand years
back. Your average Englishman and your
average American of Anglo-Saxon descent
of to-day are sprung not only from Norman
royalty, and the noble knights and ladies of
the Plantagenet court. but also from humble
villeins, peasant women, shepherds. slaves.
workmen, and all the eddylng and bubbling
elements of humanity from hangman'e
kuave to the King of Hearts.
