JEFFERSON
LETTER OF
1896 CITED
100 Years Ago Today Au-
thor of independence
Wrote Capital Mayor.
Times Washington Bureau,
1893 Neto York Avenue


WASHINGTON, June 24.--One
hundred years ago today Thomas
Jefferson wrote a very interesting
letter to the mayor Of this city. He
had been invited to participate in a
celebration here of the fiftieth ami
versary Of American independence,
and expressed regret that the state
of his health would not permit him
to come.
II should. indeed he wrote, with
peculiar delight, have met and ex-
changed congratulations personally
with the small band the remnant of
that host ~of worthless who Joined
with US, on that day. in the bold
and doubtful election we were to
make, for our country, between sub
mission and the sword; and to have
enjoyed with them the consolatory
fact that our fellow citizens, after
half a century Of experience and
prosperity, continue to approve the
choice we made"
He concluded his letter with this
paragraph:
FAll eyes are opened or opening
to the rights Of man. The general
spread Of the lights Of science has
already laid open to every-yiew the
palpable truth, that the mass of
mankind has not been born with
saddles on their backs, nor a ia
vored few booted and spurred, ready
to ride then, legitimately. by the
grace Of God These are grounds
of hope for others-for ourselves,
let the annual return Of this day
forever refresh our recollections of
those rights, and an undiminished
devotion to them.

fails to stop itching torture AND relieve
skin irritation, and that makes the skin

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
GEORGE
By JAM

GEORGE
Though General Washington some
times saw red
When hfs army got into jam,
And even was so indiscreet, it is said
AS to use an occasional damn,
We. cannot but think that a cuss word
or two
Lends to language a bit of flavor
And the Generals talk-if the story
is true
Is something to quote in his favor,
Although the old gentleman, once in
a while,
When wearied with labors of state
Would step through dance in the
popular style
Which was more or less staid and
sedate,
And often, as he would be first to
confess,
Indulge in a trifling filtration
With some pretty damssl, he never
theless
Established pretty fair nation.
1t is true he could never see any
great harm,
When the harvesting season had
come,
In distilling the corn that he grew
on his farm,
Into what pious people call rum.
And served it to guests when he'd
aged it enough
To make it deliciously mellow,
But never declared it was real pre-
war stuff,
For George was an homes old fell
low.
He had a few faults, there is no
doubt of that
The people who haven't, we've found
Make life seem a little bit tasteless
and flat
And you don't like to have them
around.
He may have been even you or as
But he did come out strong in a
crisis,
And after these many long years have
gone by
Why drag up his trivial vices?
