NC BACKWARD TO LEWIS AND CLARK

Lafayette, thanking Gov. Clark for the
gift of a grizzly bear cub, which was
the first that had ever made its ap-
pearance in Europe" This treasured
epistle, dated 1880. refers to the publi
cation of the Lewis and Clark journals
and comments on the value OF some Of
the Identical records that are included
in the Clark-Voorhis collection. With
native grace the great Frenchman ex-
presses his esteem and friendship for
Gov. Clark and his family. In whose
home he was entertained during his
last visit to the United States in 1924
1925.
Among the expedition relics Of
which Mrs. Noorhis and her daughter
are the fortunate guardians is the
field book OF elkskin that was used by
their famous ancestor during the
journey across the continent. On the
cover Is sketched a plan OF the little
fort built by the commanders of the
enterprise and their companions on a
slight rise above the Pacific Ocean,
south OF the present site OF Astoria,
Ore.
Before Lewis and Clark set out
there were made, at President Jeffer-
sons suggestion. several tin boxes in
which were to be preserved the jour
mails that chronicled their daily obser-
vations and other precious belongings.
One Of these boxes also came into the
possession of Mrs. Voorhis. William
Clark was the map maker of the
party, ond most excellent one
Thanks to his caro- and ability, a COM
plete typographical presentation was
secured of the wilderness through
which the party travelled.

vealed in a family chest a port

cumstances duringSan Investigation Of

portraits of William Clark, who mar

to the publication in 1904 Of the edi-
ton of the Original Journals OF
Lewis and Clark" Fifteen large vol
umes containing. material Transcribed
from the manuscript diaries of the eX-
petition (placed by Thomas jefferson
in the keeping of the American Phil
osophical Society, Philadelphia) were
issued fifteen years ago by Dodd,
Mead & Co. In commemoration of the
Tooth anniversary of the departure of
the captains from st. Louis. Addi-
tional matter of inestimable value was
loaned from the Clark-Voorhis treas
ure chest.
In the compilation and editing OF
this material the mantle of George
Rogers Hancock Clark fell on Miss
Eleanor Voorhis, whose patience and
devotion made possible the completion
or the Lewis and Clark record. This
modest trio OF Gen. and Gov. Clarks
descendants, who have been the CEN
tire of numerous historic and social
functions in New York and other cit
les, were invited as guests of state to
take part in significant ceremonies at
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition. st.
Louis, and the Lewis and Clark Cen
tennial Exposition, Portland. Ore.
Favored friends of Mrs. Clark. Mrs.
Voorhis and her daughter are offered
tea from a mahogany table that stood
in William Clark's drawing room; be-
fore the hearth are the same andirons
that caught the CLEAN OF fire in the
Governors mansion. AS world trav-
oilers and men famous In every walk

the momentous achievement Of himself
and his associate. so this New York
apartment, which by patriotic bonds
joins the stirring present with days
when America was young, Is frequent
ly visited by persons of renown, who
count the Clark Voorhis homo a place
Of historic pilgrimage.

comparisons between manners and

Mrs. Clark never saw her illustrious
father-in-law. He died before she mar
ried his son; but she recalls seeing the
Indian curiosities that Clark and Lewis
brought back from the far West and
other souvenirs of the expedition that
were housed for a while In a museum
built by Gov. Clark near his big brick
dwelling in st. Louis. She is able also
to relate engaging tales Of historic
value that we're told by William Clark
to his sons. She recalls especially the
impression received Of the intrepid ex-
plorer's great tenderness to little chill
dren and his delight in gathering
groups Of them about him. He kept
open house for his friends and the
many notable visitors that came to St

There are others made entirely OF
fiounces Of colored net, especially jade
green. and these are embroidered with
beads and girdled with colored chiffon.
Because cream lace and black lace
are in fashion, the designers have
found that tunics of lace are admi-
rable. There are simple ones made like
a child's pinafore, of either black or
cream, girdled at the hips with cloth
Of silver and lined with a slip OF silver.
The designers do not feel that they
must walk in the straight and narrow
path when making street blouses. They
try out curious experiments in this
line of apparel. They invent wondrous
ways of suggesting sleeves or cutting
the outline of the neck.
There is a dark blue georgette
