Henry Gilbert Recalls Memories Of 81 Years
Of Service Spent as Guard at the
White House

Almost 80 years Of service at
the White House as guard-that
is the proud record Of Henry Gill
bert, retired member Of the Metro
politan Police Department.
He knew every president, from
Grover Cleveland down to Calvin
Coolidge, and he has a wonderful
fund of stories concerning them
all.
President and Mrs. Cleveland
he recalls as taking their exer-
else by walking in the White
House grounds, figuring eight
turns to a mile. And President
Mckinley used to take his morn
ing constitutional by a stroll after
breakfast.
Once he reported to President
Theodore Roosevelt that boys were
climbing over the roof of the green
house and apt to break through.
The President pondered this prob
lem, and then instructed him to
throw brickbats at them-but
gently so as not to break the glass.

FULMER URGES
4-YEAR TERM
FOR HOUSE
BY WILLIAM s. NEAL
international News Service

A campaign for four-year terms
for members of the House of Repre-
sentativeS was inaugurated today
on the heels of proposals that the
Presidents term be extended to six
years.
Representative Hampton Fulmer
CD of South Carolina, will submit
a proposed constitutional amend,
ment, making terms of House
members four instead of two years,
congressman, Fulmer said, have
already started to campaign for
the election two years hence, with
the SeVenty-fifth Congress not yet
in session. The life of a member
of the House with two-year term,
he said, is one continuous cam
paign.
Would Reduce Pressure
With the proposal for a six-year
term for presidents, with reelec-
ton barred, gaining considerable
momentum among both Demo
Gratis and Republicans, Fulmer is
hopeful that his proposal will like
wise attract general support. He
said:
"A president now is trusted
with a fOur-year term. Sena-
tors are trusted for . period Of
six years. 1t would seem that
House members could be trusted
for more than their present two
year terms.
"The present system leads to
extravaganza. A new Congress
man now must jump in and try
to get appropriations for his
District, so that he can run for
second term. If he had q
four year term, he might do
something constructive which
would attract attention. He
wouldn't be under so much pres
sure to get Federal funds.
There's the question of cam
paigning. Why, members who
were elected in November are
already campaigning for the
election in 1888. A member Of
the House is always in a cam
paign-he don't have much
time to think about vital prob
lens.
EXPENSIVE OFFICE
at also would save money for
members. The average member
who is in Congress for 20 years
and then is beaten is broke and
unable to make a fresh start in
life. People generally don't
realize the expense of the office.
They think that a member in
office for 20 years, who has re.
ceived 100000 in salary, ought
to be rich"

during the World War.
Retired in 1923, after "a years
service, Mr.. Gilbert is active in
the Gunston Temple Memorial
Church, where he is an elder, and
his chief hobby is taking motion
pictures.
He and Mrs. Gilbert live at 1407
Fairmont st. N. w., where they
recently celebrated their forty

ASPIRUB for ACHES
TRANSFORMERS

Keep this in mind. Because Of the
other ingredients in Aspirub, the As
pirin this great rub contains, swiftly
penetrates thru the skin and greatly
helps the other pain killing agents to
do fast and thorough job Of relieving
aches, pains and soreness in joints and
muscles-it is the only rub containing
active Aspirin and protected by U. s.
patents.
Aspirub is a white, stainless, anti
septic ointment-it is powerful, pene-
trating and harmless. 1t is the new
external sensation for torturing Joint
pains and muscular aches and soreness.
Its success in the speedy relief of chest
colds, lumbago, backache, stiff neck
