Osler This is Rev. DR.. Edward Ever
EFT Hale, the chaplain of the United
States senate. DR.. Hale would be
striking figure in a throng of 10000.
He is tall, slender, with just a slight
stoop and is conspicuous for the splen-
did head that surmounts his shoulders.
It is the head Of philosopher, and
such one as the old painters loved to
put on canvas. He has long hair,
brown and gray, blue eyes, deep set.
and his beard is almost white. He has
a deep, strong voice, and his morning
invocation at the opening of the SEES
sions Of the senate sounds like mu-
steal chant.
DR.. Hale is one Of the busy old men
who does not live in the past, but who
believes in working for to-day and to-
morrow. He is the author of ten books
and is still writing. One of the best
known of his works is '"The Man With
out Country" He is of theastrenu-
GUS type, physical and mental, just the
kind of an old man that President
Roosevelt delights in. He comes Of the
grandest stock in America, and Nathan
Hale, the patriot spy of the revolution,
was his great-uncle. DR.. Hale when
but nine years of age was practicing
shorthand, and he says himself that at
the age of II years he could set type as
we'll as an average journeyman. His
father was teacher, a lawyer, a civil
engineer and an editor of a daily news
paper.
It was through the efforts of the late
Senator Hoar that DR.. Hale was Sc
cured as chaplain of the senate.
