Again Today as They Did II
Early Days Of Republic

Now that Congress has approved
Ia bill authorizing the purchase Of
early American furniture for the plr-
pose Of installing the articles In Ger
tain rooms at the White House, At

that hardly any homes In the early
days Of this republic were without
one or more samplers gracing the
walls Of the humble abodes Of the
builders Of this nation.
Genuine samplers, meaning early
American samplers. are very scarce
and art shops and collectors ask high
prices for them. Now and then one
may be lucky enough at public
sale OF estates to acquire specimens
OF this pictorial arr Of the early days.

sold at the Anderson Galleries and all
brought good prices: Many Of them
were made BY children and It II re-
markable to say in this connection,
that the pastinae Of the child Of to-
day will become 4 work Of art and
curiosity III years To come.
Among these samplers was one dat
ing back to 1888, the work Of Jean
Houston. It showed rows Of nll-
lmerals and alphabets worked in silk
