WAS DEEPLY AFFECTED

One of the most priced gifts Hugh
I. Cooper will take away from Keo-
kuk is beautiful diamond scarf pin
presented him yesterday morning by
employees of the company who have
been through the entire work with
him here.
There was no ceremony for the
presentation; when Mr.. Cooper went
to his desk yesterday he found the pin
and an accompanying letter. The
pin, which Frank LeBron made spec
ial trip to Chicago to get, is pear
shaped, with a one-carat diamond at
the top and three smaller colored
diamonds, one brilliant lavender, one
bright green and another Of fine can
airy color in row. The stones are
mounted on platinum.
Mr.. Cooper was deeply affected at
the manifestation of deep regard by
his employees.
The letter which accompanied the
pin was as follows:
Your employees during the construc-
ton of the works in the Mississippi
river ask you to accept the accomp-
anying scarf pin as natural, logical
and spontaneous expression of their
sincere regard for you.
For months running into years we
have all worked together molding in.
to concrete and steel the structures
formed in the mind of our chief. We
have seen him almost every day from
the first morning whistle sharing with
us the winter blasts and summer heat
down there in the Mississippi, oil
working at his desk in the Office build
ing. We have learned to know hin
we'll; and the more we know him, the
more we admire and love him. HI
has led us through the building of ;
great engineering achievement whicl
.thas excited the admiration of tn
world; and we feel that we have beel
honored in being allowed to follow
him from the first skirmish, through
| the battles of that spring fortnight
1--WE can never forget, to the final grea
victory over the mighty river, in al
engineering campaign our chief engi
neer planned and managed without {
mistake. What the old guard fell
toward Napoleon, we feel TOWARD
Hugh l.. Cooper. We have tried t,
express this best in that s4me loyalt,
displayed by the Legions of the Lit
tie Conqueror; we offer this scarf pill
! only as a little token of that regart
which is too heartfelt to be express
ed in either diamonds, gold or words

way for the building of The greatest
Water Power plant in the world.
We had spent nearly seven years
struggling through the primary stages
OF our enterprise ere we found you.
You came in 1905. You saw the
WonueTlui opportunity and seized It,
From the hour you laid your iron hand
backed by your indomnitable will, up.
on the helm Of this great undertaking
the end was known.
You met and overcame obstacles
that would have disheartened the
strongest Of men. You never faltered
You gathered mighty money kings un
der your banner and built power
plant that is the wonder and admira
ton of the civilized world
You have lived among us for more
than three years. Your name has be
come household word in every home
IN this community. You have endearet
yourself to everyone who has beer
fortunate enough to know you.
