CHAMPION CHOPPER AT IS

Galen Humphrey, 9S years young,
the pride of Wareham, the cape town /
twenty-five miles from Plymouth,
Mass, has a reputation for being able |
to strike harder blow with an AK TO-
day than most of the young men about
town. Returning home from a day |
at the Plymouth celebration, he ate |
a hearty dinner and then went out |
and swung an sx for two hours on
the huge stump of tree that had
Just been cut down and sawed up in
his side yard. n
Sturdy to a degree envied by the
younger generation, Mr.. Humphrey
does not think of taking nap in tAs
day time. He eats regularly and well
flor example, four ears of corn and
huge piece of BURBERRY pie at a
sitting); goes to bed just as late az
younger folks; gets up early as most
elderly people like to. and takes ex-
ercise during the day that few young
err persons would care to try.
Nj. Humphrey ascribes his splendid
health and long life to hard work. 1t
is hard work and lots of it. he says,
that has kept him healthy. He Start
ed out in life as farmer; then he en-
tered the grocery business, in which
he stayed for nineteen years. He
moved to Wareham in 1855 from Car
yer, where he was born, and since then
has looked after cranberry boys and
farm, and dealt in wood extensive
ly.
Mr. Humphrey built his own home
forty-two years ago. He had the
lumber brought from Maine on sail
ing vessel. He went to Bangor and
picked out what he wanted and saved
$1,000 on the transaction. He built
a large home, for, SO he says, in those
days lumber and land were both cheap
and one seemed to need lots of room.
Chopping wood is daily pastime
with Mr.. Humphrey. He has dealt in
timber so long that he confesses he
rather likes the looks and feel Of it..
Along with his other ventures, he
taught school for nineteen years, and
is an authority on wood handling and
figuring, and has published book
4 which contains many tables and exam
pies for measuring and estimating on
lumber. His wife died at 80 last
~ January, after they had lived together
happily for over sixty-eight years. He
reads without glasses and walks with
sprightly step without the aid OF
even cane. He is never SO happy as
when he gets a chance to invite some
t Of the younger men of the town tc
81 try wood chopping contest with him
He is always willing to wager he car
I keep at it longer than any Of thu
J younger boys can. And they bav'

not expected to, neither did We make

one instance We did justice to the
occasion, that OF devouring the deli
cious ice cream set before us, which
was expertly prepared and in which
our appetites responded vigorously.
The decorations which were fash
toned by Mr.. Medley were exquisitely
designed and gave one a feeling OF
ease and comfort.
