PINE BLUFF COULD
 NOT HAVE MEETING

Editor Graphic: Several of our friends have asked me why Pine Bluff did not win the official show Of the state branch of the American Poultry Association, and ill justice to our local association and to advise our friends that We are alive to all on the job, l wish to state that this show is not the State Poultry and Pet Stock Association exhibit, but is a show held under the auspices of the American Poultry Association and carries certificates, medals, etc., offered by that Association and is al- ways held in connection with some other show. Pine Bluff had this show last December and our con- stitution would not permit our hav- ing it again this year. Pine Bluff therefore never competed for the show this year, but on the contrary gave her support to Fort Smith. Had we been in the race, we are foolish enough to believe Fort Smith would not have been selected
 Yours truly,

Nellie Custis still flourish. At the end of the
long walk in the garden is the little schoolhouse
in which the Custis children were taught.

Though a tour of inspection develops histor.
cal attractions at every turn, the chief point Of
interest on the grounds is the tomb of Wash

the old mausoleum that once held the ashes OF
the Washington family. 1t is beautifully located
in clump of trees and towering plants and
vines surround 1t on all sides.
This simple yet eloquent statement marks its
importance. 1t was planned by George Washing
ton and built by his executors. Within the iron
portals one may see the catafaIque that contains
the remains Of Washington and the sarcophagus
that holds the body of his wife In the rear of
the tomb is iron door that opens into the re-
ceptacle that contains the the remains of others
of the Washington family The iron grating that
closes the outside entrance has been heightened,

it. The gate is locked and the key is said to have

An old negro stands near at hand and for
many years has discoursed to visitors on the
spot and It's surroundings.
The simplicity of the tomb is characteristic
of the man and those that gaze upon the resting
place of the great hero instinctively speak in
whispers and are awed by the memories associ
ated with the place. One Is bewitched and en-
thraed with the place and fingers long on this
spot, where reposes that which is mortal of him
who brave warrior, stanch patriot
and able statesman ever lived.

increasing it's length and height, completing lts
improvements in 1856. Its foundation walls are
of stone and brick, the framework oak and the
sheathing pine, painted and stained to resemble
stone. The roof is of cypress shingles and spa
cious and welldrained cellar underlies the whole
house.
This is Mount Vernon and the large brass
knocker on the central door Of the west front
indicates that this was the usual point OF ap-
proach to the mansion. Nearby is the sun dial
in the center of spacious court, ianked by sew

Offices, which are joined to the main buildings
by colonnades.
When the threshold is crossed what mingled
feelings of awe and respect fill the heart! How
the thoughts fly as the relics displayed in the
different rooms viewed!
Several of the states have restored the vari
GUS rooms at their own expense and many objects
of the past greet the visitor. Here Is the key
to the Bastile, the prison so famous during the
French revolution. Lafayette presented this to
Washington in 1889 trophy of the spcils OF
despotism." There is the music room with the
harpsichord which George Washington presented
to Nellie Custis as wedding present. In the
room is the original Chippendale sideboard and
the iron hreback brought to this country by Lord
Fairfax, friend of Washington.
Every room in the old mansion contains some
thing of historical interest, but visitors are natu-
rally drawn to the in which Washington
died. Here is the big four-posted bed upon which
he lay when death overlook him The quaint
canopy and fxings Of the bed have been restored
and some of Washingtons personal effects add
much to the impressveness of the spot Among
these are his military chest and camp equipment.
The family kitchen, with its quaint coored
dishes, iron kettles and swinging cranes, is
point of interest, while the smoke house nearby,
larder and spring house show that many guests
fed and much material prepared to cothe
the slaves and provide for the general use of the
family. Each is fitted up in the style of the time
in which washington lived. Among all the charms
of the home Of Washington not one can eclipse
the ideal flower garden, with its box hedges in
delibly marking the walks and flower beds as in
the past.
