DRAIN YOUR LAND BEFORE IT DRAINS you
MARK TWAIN SPENT
SCHOOL YEAR here
HumOrist, Whose Anniversary
World Celebrates Today,
Was In st. Vincent's,

Today is the eightieth anniversary
Of the birth Of Mark Twain, Americas
humorist and one of this country's
most widely known writer's. His birth
day will be observed in many of the
Capc's schoolrooms by exercises by
the school pupils, readings from his
works and lectures by the instructors
on Mark Twain's life.
Mark Twain, or rather Samuel Lang
horne Clemens, was born Nov. so,
1885, in Florida, Mo.-not in Hanni-
bal as IS so often quoted. Hannibal is
the place he made famous in literature
10y reason of the fact that he spent his
bOyhood days there, however.
His parents moved to Hannibal in
1850, and Mr.. Clemens lived there till
1893. The house in which he lived
stands today. 1t is preserved by the
city of Hannibal and is a land mark
that is visited by virtually every tour
list who visits the small town on the
upper Mississippi.
The house is low frame struc-
turc and was built in 1914 by the
Clemens family. They occupied it till
1853 when they moved away.
A few years ago movement was
started 10 regain the Clemens home
for the public when Mark Twain be-
came fully appreciate by the American
public. In June, 1911, the Commercial
Club Of Hannibal obtained an option
on the property and in September of
that year, the place was taken over
by Mir. and Mrs. George A. Mahan,
who had the place thoroughly reno
waited and on May ID, 1912, presented
it to the city.
Several leading men of the State as
we'll as leading literary men of the
country were present at the cere-
monies that accompanied the dedica-
ton Of the humorists home to the city
Of Hannibal.
The home now is occupied by an Old
woman who knew Mark Twain as a
boy. 1t is open for visitors inspection
every day, and at one side of the small
front room, there is register where
upon the tourist is asked to sign his
name.
In the last three years that the home |
has been preserved in this fashion,
more than 600 persons have visited |
the place and every State in the Union !
has been represented by those who
paid homage to the great American |
writer
More than that, every country in
Europe, many African countries. In
dia, China, Japan and Australia have
been represented in the list. South |
America is the only place on the earth |
that has not been fully and we'll repre- |
scented by tourists to the Twain home. |
At the same time that the facts |
about Twain'S home are rccOunted, it !
is interesting to note that the original |
Of his Becky Thatcher" Tom Say
ycr's girl and sweetheart, still is living !
in Hannibal She is member Of one |
of the towns best known families and |
