"Love is a wonderful thing," he mused. "I'll tell you a story with western romance, with ideals, with heart liitobs, " The colonel paused for lack of ; 'I'oetive. then continued: Pair of Wewlyweds. "It:. ibv a sjo a young couple came to i.i. t rather the better half of the coui Wu"ht the other halt to me. They had' just been married. "They were Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hutchinson, they said, and had been married at an ' inland town near Litsk. Wvo. "The girl was' pretty and knew how to wear her clothes, but the man was awkward and didn't say much. 1 ou could tell he loved her, though, and that was all that, was iiecessarv. "She told me she had gone to Wy- rywi.g to teach school and had met ' V-husband there. He rode a horse like Tonr Mix and could draw a gun tike lightning, but he lacked the finish, she said. n Dress Suit Knowledge. i.f ( i ..l...t.l ' how to wear a dVess suit, said the pretty bride, and how to eat soup without arousing the neighborhood and how to leave out 'ain't' at least part of the tipie "Well, to make a long story short, she had married him, and loved him, but wanted him to have an education. "Funny part of it. was he wanted her to finish her course at some university, too, so you see the thing was mutual. "He'd heard he could get electri cal training in the army, and at the cost of being separated from his bride he was witting to enlist to get it. Not Enough Money. "But the trouble was he couldn't enlist.1 Regulations do not permit a married man to enlist without spe cial permission. "The Hutchinsons didn't have enough money to go to school to gether, and Mrs. Hutchinson begged ine so hard to let her husband enlist that I wired the commanding of ficer at Funston. "Saturday I received a reply giving him permission to' enlist. But that's not the best part of the story. "Hutchinson enlisted for three years and what was his bride to do during those three years he was to spend at Funston getting his electri cal training? .' "At the last minute they decided that she should attend the Kansas State Agricultural college at Man , hattau. Funston and Manhattan are 1 connected by an electric line. She had one completed year at a uni versity, and would finish her course there in just three years. So you see they both would be graduated at the same time."
