'ONLY 5000 IN YET

Some Want Henry Clay's Home
Purchased, but Mrs. Mays
Says U. S. May Get 1t

Only about $500 Of Rchmonds
/ quota of $500 for the purchase OF
{ the Old Kentucky Home near
Bardstown, has been subscribed
so far, Mrs. w. o. Mays, chair
man for Madison, reports. Mrs.
, Mays says that some have OBJ
Jected that Henry Clay's home at
Lexington, was not purchased for
a state park instead of the home
of Stephen Collins Foster at
Bardstown. However, she points
out, that this place is practically
certain to be purchased by the
government is a federal park and
it is appropriate that the Old
Kentucky Home should be that
OF the author of the famous song.
At the last session Of the Ken
ttcky legislature a commission
was appointed. known as the
I"Old Kentucky Home" Commits
sion. This commission has secur-
ed an option on Federal Hill"
near Bardstown, Ky, immortal
lied as the spot where Stephen
Collins Foster composed the song
known round the world. and
which has touched and softcncd
the hearts of every people.
The estate of 236 acres and the
beautiful colonial home. together
with its valuable antique furni-
ture, relics, and Jouctt and Heal
ey portraits. IS offered to the
state, through the commission.
for the sum of S5O.OOO-a most
reasonable price. 1t is the pur-
pose to raise a total of $4,000.
The idea is to transform such
part OF the grounds. as may be
necessary, into a park. restore the
interior Of the house and its fur
nishings. and throw it open per-
manently to the public.
kentuckianS living in other
states desire so much to preserve
her traditions that thev have been
willing to make initial contribu-
tions to hold this option and start
splendid movement. Every son
and daughter of thc,statc should
contribute. Cash subscriptions
are now asked from all our peo-
pie. Any sum you may wish to
give. whether it be small or large
will prove acceptable Dollar
count. However.
we hope YOU will be as generous
as possible. There shonld be t.
000 people who will give $50 each.
If every Kentuckian whose heart
has been stirred by "My Old
Kentucky Home whose eyes
have been filled with tears when
he or she has heard ct sung. will
contribute to this fund-it will be
comparatively easy to raise the
necessary amount.

 The entire days session was spent ir the work of selecting jury. At the hour of adjournment. the prose cution had exhausted it's list of chal- lences and the defense three. Be- cause of the fact that each side has 10 peremptory challenges, it s said that it will assemble many changes in the selection of the jury before the box is filled to the satisfaction of both sides
 The court room was well fiusd with spectators during the afternoon ses- sion. many of whom were young girls. The defen lant and her husband, Paul Vincent. Southard, occupied their ac- customed chair, but there was a noticeable change in the manner of each towards both the proceedings and the newspaper men present.
