pidn't svit Washington.

Until the esrly part of the last
century Milford, Conn, had house
in which Washington was said to
have spent night. II was in 1889,
when Washington made a tour Of
New England. Tradition says that
there we're certain things about his
stay at the Milford tavern which he
did not enjoy. The supper set be
fore him consisted Of boiled meat
and potatoes. He was not pleased
with the meal and asked for q bowl
Of bread and milk. The landlord
brought the new order and a broken
pewter spoon with which to eat it.
"Hsve you no better spoons than
this'". asked General Washington.
"h's the best / have in the house,
sir" replied the host.
"Send me the servant" said his
excellency. "Here's 2 shillings. Go
to the minister's and borrow sil.
yer spoon"
Tradition does not add whether
he got the spoon or not - Ex

GROWING OLD.
Old-w are growing old:

Olu-We are growing ola.
Going on through beautiful road,
Finding earth more blessed abode;
Nobler work by our hands to be wrought,
Freer paths for our hope and our thought.
Because of the beauty the years unfold,
We are cheerfully growing ol,
Old-we are growing old:
Going up where the suns line is clear
Watching grander horizons appear
Out of clouds that enveloped our youth;
Standing firm on the mountains of truth;
Because of the glory the years unfold
We are joyfully growing old.
DID we are growing DID,
Going in to the garden of rest.
That glow through the gold of the west,
There the rose and amaranth blend,
And each path is the way to a friend;
Because of the peace that the years unfold,
We are thankfully growing old
Old--are we growing old?
Life blooms as we travel on
Up the hills, into fresh, lovely dawn;
We are children, who do but begin
The sweetest of living to win
Because heaven is in US, to bud and unfold,
We are younger, for growing old.

is to hold during the entire year of
1915, to celebrate the completion of
the Panama canal. Others of the trio
are John c. Olmsted, landscape archi-
engineer
No other exposition ever held in any
country has been able to bring so much
talent together for the work of build
ing an exposition as these three men
represent. John c. Olmsted, of the
firm of Olmsted Brothers, of Boston,
is recognized the world over as the
greatest landscape architect in the
world Frank P. Allen gained world
wide reputation as a constructor when
he completed the Alaska-Yukon expo
sition in Seattle in one year and eight
months, and permitted the gates to
open on time with every building com
pleted and occupied
Bertran G. Goodhue, although a COM
lpartively young man, has made study
of the mission-colonial type of archi-
lecture so comprehensive and pro-
found as to make it safe to say that
he has no competitor in this particular
line of work. He has not only travelled
over the whole world to view notable
buildings in this style, but he has also
been asked to draw the original de-
signs for nearly every one of the build
ings of this type built in this country
during theh past ten years. Mr. Good
hue is a member of the firm of Cram,
Goodhue & Ferguson. of New York.
He has already begun work on the de-
signs for the buildings to be erected
in Balboa Park for the Panama-C ali
lfornia exposition, and actual construc-
tion will begin on the first of these
early in the coming spring.
1 Southern California is particularly
fortunate from an architects point of
view, because it has this style of archi-
lecture ready to hand. saiys Mr. Good
hue. 1T is to be hoped that much of
the qualities of the California missions
will be made to appear in the build
ings of the exposition. This style has
great advantages, in that it is extreme
| ly effective, relying for its beauty not
so much on ornamentation as upon the
massive walls and arches. Much of
the early history of California can be
iperpetuated in these buildings in Bal
4 boa park, and especially in such of
them as are to remain as permanent
structures, after the Panama. California
exposition has passed into glorious his
tory"

The Jeffords minor lease bill now
pending in the lower house of the state
Legislature, should be defeated beyond
all hopes of redemption. This meas
.ure, so far as reading of it discloses,
has but single purpose-to make it
easier to skin the Indian minors;
easier for the land sharks to perpetrate
their optrages. 1t would have the
whole procedure of leasing minor
lands carried on by dark-lantern meth
DDS, and seeks to avoid the necessity
of advertising the probate courts or
der to sell such leases.
Mr.. Jefford's idea seems to be that
the only person having any interest
worth protecting are the oil and gas
lease spectators; he ignores the In
dian children land owners altogether.
1T is fact that among legitimate oil
producers there is no disposition to
avoid competition in a matter of this
kind. Legitimate oil producers, many
of them, are opposed to it. They de-
clare that the widest possible public
ity should be given the courts order
to sell minor leases. In the first place
such publicity protects the legitimate
producer; in the second place it in
vites competitive bidding and in many
cases results in the land owners re-
ceiving several times the amount that
the soft-spoken lease speculator would
give And this publicity also makes
it exceedingly difficult for the probate
courts to connive with the guardian
and lessor as has too often been done
under existing conditions.
The Jeffords bill should not receive
a moments serious consideration. No
fair-minded man can justify himself in
giving such monstrosity his suppora.
