Chicago, Oct. 14.-Friends Of Eugene
Field have planned to raise a fund for
a memorial to the children's poet of
Chicago.
Fields friends were found in every
walk Of life. Many Of the poets old
time newspaper associates have left
Chicago. They may be found today
in other American cities and rs cor
respondents and writer's in foreign
places. They also may be discovered
in large numbers in various profess
sions.
Field, until his death eighteen years
public officials, writer's and club mem
bers. Many Of these today have in
their homes cherished remembrances
tokens and photographs presented to
them by the poet himself.
Among those in this city to possess
such valued remembrances of Chi
cago's beloved poet is Franklin H.
Head. Mr.. Head has three large pho
tographs each bearing Il verse or 9th
er inscription written by the donor.
On IL Of the photographs Field
wrote his translation of the German
poem, THE Three Cavaliers" by Uh-
land. Another of the photographs
shows Field in a long yellow ulster.
The ulster had been considered Il joke
among Fields friends. it being unani-
mOusly decided that there was moth
ing becoming about it as a garment
FOR the poet. Thereupon Field had
himself photographed in it. On the
photograph he presented to Mr.. Head
the poet wrote, "A Nameless Horror"
There is another large class of
friends-those who never met Field,
but who have known him only through
his poems. These are the children and
the younger people. Through the chill
dren Fields fame has reached all parts
Of the world.
