VIBTTE REWARDED
A (rail postal clerk of East Orange,
N. J.. saw two strange fnen awing onto
the train as he received a valuable
sack of registered mall from New
York.
He reached for hla gun but the ban
dits beat him to the draw and he felt
a stinging sensation In hiB leg, then
In his hand. Undaunted, he drew his
gun and fired, bringing down one rob
ber and putting the other one to (light.
At the peril ot losing hla own life,
he protected the government's prop
erty.
When men (lght tor their country
on the field of battle and are wounded
they are cited for bravery. The law ,
does not recognize the civilian hero.
The postmaster general, however, re
warded the young clerk with a check
for $2,000 and he received the con
gratulations ot President Coolldge.
Such Integrity and devotion to du
ty Is worthy of reward and should bo
an example for every American youth.
There is already too much danger
of immature young men gaining the
impression that only robbery Is fruit
ful and that virtue gains sothlng sub
stantial.
