HENRY CLAY AT SIXTY-FIVE
The Famous kentuckian at the Time

The Famous kentuckian at the Time
OF His Retirement From the Senate
| In an article on when Henry Clay
Said Farwell to the Senate" on March
81, 1912, after thirty-siX years in pub
lie life, John f. Coyle, in the Ladies'
Home Journal, presents this graphic
pen-picture of the great commoner,"
whose close friendship he enjoyed for
many years; "Mr. Clay lin 1922 was
sixty-five years old, at the very zenith
of his great popularity, the notable,
central figure in the arena of politics
and craftsmanship. More than six feet
tan, slender, erect, graceful and com
handing, he was the personiiicaton of
dignity and noble bearing, He was Il
perfect master of the language, tone
and gesture, and possessed of voice
remarkable for its volume and range
and It's capacity to express every shade
of feeling of passion OF the human soul
Deep, full-toned and melodious, 1t was
indeed magical in It's power of con-
trolling the feelings of those who lis
tened to its varying Cadcnces and OK
qusite modulations. An admiring
IbiorraDher adds to an analysis of Mr..
Clay as An orator. His mouth large
and prominent, upper lip working
quietly, or in agony. as occasions re-
quire; his eyes resting in calmness, or
bcaming with lively emotion, or spark
ling with strong feeling, or flashing
with high passions like the thunder
bolts of heaven in the darkness OF
storms; hts long arms hanging easily
by his side, or out-stretched or uplitt-
ell or waving with grace, or striking
with the vehCmence or passion his
fingers pointing where his thoughts
direct AS an orator he drew upon his
every resource to charm alike the ear
| and eye, and was unQuestionahly the
most fascinating public speaker OF his

the girls go for examination to the

the enthusiastic wheel people-the cy-

Assembled THE MONUMENT

During the month OF June there
We're 1887 visitors to the top of the
Washington monument, of whom 49,

and 2,707 by the stairway, making
400, S22 persons who have visited the

Col Bingham, the officer in charge
of public buildings and grounds, re-
ports that the usual care was bestow-
ed on public parks during the month
OF June, and that they are now in as
good condition as possible with the
funds at his disposal. In regard to
recent improvements at the executive
mansion he says:
The floors Of the east and west ends
OF the corridor on the first floor of the
White House were strengthened by
placing additional supports between
the floor joists and the ceiling joists
of the basement, and portable supports
Cf timber were made for use under
these floors and the floors of the
state dining room and east room for
strengthening them when subjected to
the increased weight imposed by the
large crowds attending receptions.
Repairs were made to hinges and locks
OF doors, and some new doorslls were
put down. A section of plank walk
was made and placed upon the roof
and repairs were made to the floors in
IL rec of the rooms, and other minor
carpentering repairs were made as re-
CURED.
Extensive improvements were COM
menced in the small reception room
adjoining the entrance vestibule. The
old fireplace was torn out, new floor

GIRLS OUT THIS WAY.

A Milwaukee paper started this item
en- the rounds: At Milwaukee the
other day two girls went out for row
on the lake. The wind was blowing
off shore. An oarlock broke and the
girls found themselves adrift. Their
screams failed to attract attention.
Presently they were out of sight OF
land. The waves ran high, and one
girl became seasick, but she had to
help the other girl bail out the boat.
Miss Dora used her slipper for a dip
per; Miss Minnie used her hat. After
eight hours the girls were rescued by
a steam barge. They reached home
about II o'clock at night" Comment
ing on this, the Charlestown Is. CO.
News and Courier stys: I'VE rejoice
at the escape of the young ladies, Of
course, but candor compels us to add
that If the lives of two southern girls
depended on their bailing out a
swapping boat with their own slip
pers, they would certainly be
drowned"

Don't think that because it is wet

done. Take these days to fix the
broken machinery and repair the
barns and cribs.
A missing board or broken wire
in a fence often allows stock to get
into a field of growing crops and do
great damage. There is never 50
