LIFE OF JOHNSON
Biography os Late Governor is BeinQ
Prepared by Frank
A. Day

Frank A. Day, private secretary of
the late Governor Johnson, has under.
taken to write and publish a biography
of the lamented governor. He does
this at the request of Mrs. johnson,
and as the most intimate friend,
perhaps, that the late governor had,
he is undoubtedly peculiarly qualified
for the task.
There are thousands of friends of
the late governor who would like to
have some permanent. record and
memorial of his life and works. 1t
would seem as if there should be a
great demand for such a biography as
Mr.. Day proposes to issue. ..
The book will be about four hun.
dred pages and will be we'll bound
and geographically perfect. The
book will be profusely and handsomely
illustrated, and will be in every
respect a publication worthy of a
place in every Minnesota home.
Governor Johnson's life was an in
spiration to every ambitious boy or
girl, and record of that life on the
library table will be valuable con-
tribution to the education of the
children. Mr.. Day will distribute the
book through the medium of agents
to be appointed in every county of
the state.
