SERVICE OF 80 YEARS
UNBR0KEN BY ILLNESS
James n. Groves Makes an Unusual
Record as Clerk in Labor
Bureau.

Thirty-two years in one bureau of
the government, and not one day of
sick leave applied for in all that time
such is the unusual record of James H.
Groves, clerk in the bureau of labor
statistics of the Labor Department.
Associates in the bureau presented
Mr.. Groves with gold-handled UNI
brella today, on the occasion of his
eightieth birthday. The presentat ation
was made on behalf of the bureau by
Fl. F. Olnsted. who has been with the
bureau since 1855. He is eighty-one years
old.
Mr.. Groves has been with the
bureau since its foundation in 1885,
when it was under the Interior De-
partment. There were at that time
but five employees. and the late Carroll
D. Wright was in charge as commits
sioner. He saw the bureau grow into
"a Department of Labor" Cthough not
cabinet office) in 1883. In 1903 this
Department of Labor was made
bureau of the Department of Commerce
and Labor. When the Department of
Labor was formed, with Secretary Will
son as full-1edged cabinet member
at it's head, the establishment, which is
really the mother bureau" of the de-
partment, became officially the bureau
of labor statistics.
Mr.. Groves was born in 1887. Prior
to his connection with the bureau of
labor statistics he was state super
intendent of schools of the state of
Delaware.

Pennies Saved.

>. links saved his coin for years
and years, the dollars earned in
sweat and tears. Il have no use
for banks" said he; they never
did appeal to me. Why hand my
savings to a gent who may elope
with every cent and spend his
days, till life is done, where ex--
tradition doesn't run? Methinks
| have more sense than that: |
have some brains beneath my hat.
The hard-earned dimes for which
] grind Ill hide away where none
can find, and when I'm old I'll
have roll that will be soothing
to my soul" And so, in hooks
and. crannies, then, he hid away
the iron men. In corners, under
meath the stairs, and in old tables,
cots and chairs he stored away
the good long green, and NUT
tered oft, with mind serene, "The
banks won't get my precious
nnarks-I fear those money lend
ing sharks!" And thus he saved
till he waxed old, and then one
morning, fair but cold, with north
east winds and signs of snow, the
fire hend came and laid him low.
His shack was burned, with all it
held, and Jinks just stood around
and yelled. He'd lost his all in
wintry age; we put him in pad
ded cage, and there, with other
battv cranks, he still remains and
cusses banks.
