TUBBY wICKs bowed his round
l. face and battered derby
against the drenching spring nor
easter that drove out of the night.
Cold water squished in his shoes at
every step, and dripped from the
frayed overcoat pinned tightly
about his rotund figure.
Tubby was restless. 1t was all
right to prowl the pavements of
Manhattan in winter, but when
spring brought the strange nostal-
gia that gripped him now, he
yearned for open country-the lone
ly call of train whistle; the roll
Of an empty box car; the aroma of
a mulligan stewing in some hobo
jungle
Tubby shuffled to halt before a
bright contraption parked under a
dripping street light near the stage

In the death of Mr. Charles Carroll Glover Washington
loses of those grand old to whom much Of the cy
beauty and large part Of its financial development must be
attributed.
Glover lived good life and when his time to
he could welcome death with the knowledge that his had been

For years before his death Mr. Glover had been in
retirement from business
He never however retired from the civic activity which had
been great part Of his ife
Mr. Glover started his business in humble fashion
as a clerk in book store
From that beginning he moved into the banking business
becoming associated with what is the Riggs National
Bank.
In the bank his abilities him almost instant recognition
and during the latter part Of his life he recognized as the
dominant figure in the local financial community.
The qualities which carried Mr. Glover to the top in his
personal business affairs he expended freely for the good Of
his community and his fellow citizens.
To his interest and activity must be credited in large
the development Of the cys beautiful park system
He was originator and of the active supporters
of the National Episcopal Cathedral rising Mt st.

with the provision that the RFC
should not be permitted to charge
more than 31a per cent interest
per annum on its loans to closed

In most eloquent language, Mr..
Vandenberg pointed out that the
present interest rate was 4 per

11a per cent on money it borrowed

He convinced the Senate that
it was wrong for the RFC to
have that ~ per cent spread on

suffer.

his amendment.

The thing that was to be done
was the granting of a pardon to
one Benjamin P. F. Twilley, and
the pardon had been asked by
Senator Creswell Of Maryland.
Mr.. Morgan has a Lincoln let
ter which gives. him a chuckle.
It is addressed to General Meade
and. as I remember it, it goes.
Dear General: Don't you
think that Lieut.. - of -

captain? His wife thinks he
should. (Signed) Abraham Lin

Permission to print this letter
is given by Mr.. Morgan only on
condition that the lieutenant'S
name and the number of his
regiment Is omitted. The reason
is that Mr.. Morgan would spare
any relatives Of the family any
embarrassment that might result.
HIGHEST PRICED
There are scores, perhaps hun
dreds, of Lincoln notes stopping
the execution of soldiers. The
classic of these, however. is in
the form of a telegram which
says:

in a duel the following year.

It required only a short time
for men in power to send Hagood

many more months to enter the
Army years ago than l. did the
average applicant for West Point.
Back in the "90's" Hagood was
student at the University of
South Carolina and had made UP
his mind to enter the United
States Military Academy for a
career in the Army of the United

He failed to fulfill the require

and consequently could not enter
the Point.
Near the campus of the Uni.

small, brown shack which the
boys used as a gymnasium.
Month after month Hagood
went to the gymnasium for three
or four hours every day.
He exercised, used weights,
swung Indian clubs and exerted
every effort to stretch his muscles
SO that he could pass the physi-
cal examinations and enter that

to expell him because he talked
