b Tcr,cc Wc-tyc4,h Higginson
! Young readers are sometimes sur
pissed to find that, while George
Washington is always called the
Father of his Country, Thomas Jeffer-
son, the third President, is mentioned
in books of history as the man who
more than any n else formed its in
situations and ways. This is easily ex-
planned.
Washington was first and chiefly a
soldier, and had served with European
soldiers. He liked formal ways, dig
nified uniforms, and even high sound
ing titles. He thought that the Pres
ident of the United States should be
addressed as "Your Mightiness." He
was driven to the Capitol in a six
horse coach with riders. 1t was a great
change from this way of doing things
when Thomas Jefferson rode to the
Capitol alone on horseback, dismount-
ed, hitched his horse to a post, and
then walked up the steps to be inaug-
urated as President of the United
States.
Let US see how he came to be there.
Jefferson was born at Shadwell, Vir-
ginia, afterward called Monticello, on
April 18th, 1743. He "a the son of
a rich planter, and he had the advant-
age over his fellow-statesmen Of a bet
ter education in early life. He was
not obliged to earn money, like Wash
ington by surveying, or like Franklin
by printing, or like Adams by teach
ing a country school. He entered
William and Mary College in Virginia,
and he studied early the Latin, Greek,
French, Spanish and Italian languages.
He was especially fond of mathemat-
les; he enjoyed music and played the
violin.
When Jefferson was twenty-five, he
owned a library which has cost him
more than one thousand dollars. This
library was burned in his house at
Shadwell; but later he went on pur-
chasing books and had a large collec-
ton. At the time of his marriage,
which occurred when he was twenty
nine years old, he owned nearly two
thousand acres of land and forty or
fifty slaves; and the widow whom he
married owned one hundred and thirty
FIVE slaves and forty thousand acres of
land. inherited from her father.

Rubber and American Can attracting
most attention. Trading was on such
heavy scale that at the close the

Appearance of American Can as a

with the rise in these went a swift

Building.
The practice OF charging in ad-
vance for service was attacked by
several delegates, who pointed out
that this is not the policy in other
businesses. II was stated that the
method Of charging on limited con-
tracts Is unfair, as the company
makes extra charge for all calls
over the monthly allotment but
gives no credit for unused calls.
IT was suggested that a fsirer
method would be 10 allow the calls
