United States senator. Andrew had
a romantic history, il we could only
linger over it. It began by his be-
ing cast away upon desert Isle, but
just like novel, it all came out right,
and he was among the first to shout
der arms in 76.
The Moores have always been to
the fore in North Carolina. Alfred,
Judge Of the supreme court, who died
in 1910, was revolutionary patriot,
who sacrificed large fortune for the
cause. He served in the army, with
the rank of captain.
At his death he was possessed of a
considerable estate. Bartholomew
Figures Moore was called the father of
the Ninth Carolina bar.
In South Carolina the Moores had .
grant of 2,400 acres, near Charleston,
on Fosters creek, or to give it its
Indian name-Appee-bee creek. Boo
chaw-ee and Wepensaw were names
of estates belonging to the Moores.
One of the founders of the family
in Pennsylvania was John Moore,
jurist, born in England, 1858. He died
in Philadelphia, 1882. He was called
the son of Sir Francis Moore, whose
father, Sir John Moore, was knighted
by Charles II.
Moores lived in Chester county, and
from there some of the family went
to Kentucky. Marriage connections,
of the Pennsylvania branch, include
the Kings, Sargents, Bells, Jessups,
Stouts and Burroughs.
The family were early settlers at
Bordentown, N. J.; at Richmond,
N. Y, and in New England, where we
find them in Maine, taking part in the
French and Indian war; at Andover,
N. H.; Bellows Falls, w.t.; Palmer, Ok
ford and Rochester, Mass. The first
president of Amherst college was
Zephaniah Moore, born ITO, in Massa-
chusetts.
John Moore of Dorchester was a
freeman, 1880. Later, he lived at
Windsor. Conn.,, where he died in 1877.
His son John had land at Simsbury,
still owned by descendants. Capt.
Thomas of Phillips War was of this
line. Andrew of Windsor and wife,
Sarah Phelpes, or Phelps, had nine
children. Marriage connections of this
branch include the Winclells, Sanders
and Hurlbuts.

Living In The Past

Could a man, we're he given the op-
portunity, really live In any age widely
remote from his own? Modern phi
losophy tells US that life is then at its
highest and best when the organism
is perfectly adapted to Its environ
ment. II this be 30, then It is clear
that any large, sudden and abrupt
change In the environment must i'm
pair the vitality Of the organism and
might even destroy It altogether
There are many worthy people who
delight to call themselves old-fash-
toned and are always longing, 30 they
pretend, to live in some other and bet
ter age than their own. It Is q vain
aspiration and those who entertain it
only succeed, so far as they succeed
at all, In getting hopelessly out Of
touch with their own age. We have
no other age than our own to live in
and the true wisdom of life is frankly
to live In our own age and to make
the best Of 1t, neither bewailing the
past, of which, having no personal ex-
perience, we make to ourselves an

Tor the house though, should showers

First, tell the children they are to

little denim hunting bag for the

hidden In every conceivable place, the
crackers to be eaten or taken home,
and to the one who bags the most
animals a prize of toy animal may
be given.
Then give each guest card with
numbers from to Is on and place

leader or the hostess selects child
to draw a picture, whispering to him
the animal he is to draw; the guests
write beside the number the name of
the animal they think he is trying to
portray. When Is animals have been
drawn and guessed collect the cards,

A Brides Salad,

Peel an average sized apple, cut
In dice and mix with one-han the
quantity of pineapple and about a ta-
blespoonful of pecan or hickory nuts.
Arrange lettuce on plates and heap
the salad mixture on the lettuce. Lay
on a few strips of fresh cocoanut cut
thin. Cover with whipped cream and
add strawberry or two. or a cherry.
For pot roast. one may buy a
small piece Of meat, although it is
never quite as nice as larger one. A
delicious flavor will be added to the
roast If a half pound of prunes are
cooked with the meat They may then
be picked and served with the meat.
For an emergency dessert when
mother drops in to dinner, take stale
cake, cut in squares and toast, spread
each square with preserves, put two
together and cover with sweetened
whipped cream.
