A NOTED CENTENARIAN

Henry r. Gibson, the oldest living for
mer member of Congress, celebrated his
Tooth anniversary few days ago at his
home in Washington, D. C.. News photo
graphs showing him cutting his birthday
cake indicate that he is good for quite a
number of years more.
A native of Maryland, born in 1887,
he was graduated from Hobart College in
1862, and entered the Union Army the fol-
lowing year. He was admitted to the bar
and removed to Tennessee after the war.
He held various public offices and edited
newspapers in Knoxville, and was mem
Der of Congress from the Second District
of Tennessee from 1895 to 1905. He had
previously served in both branches of the
Tennessee Legislature and as Judge.
At the age of 81 Mr.. Gibson assisted
in revising the state code. He married his
second wife when he was 81, after living
with his first wife As years until her death
in 1918.
According to one Interviewer, his
formula for longevity is quite simple: Keep
busy, keep cheerful mind your own bust
ness and just go on living.

them. The first one opened was
found to be filled with cans of al

poured around them to hide them

hogsheads are estimated to con-
tain 400 gallons each, and COM
