Senator Lewis, of Illinois has announced that he will resign from the Senate during the next tWelve-month period, at the age of Fl, and at the close of a pulp lie service begun almost 50 years ago. The care that Senator Lew is bestowed on his personal ap- pearance, his punctilious courtesy and the pains which he took 10 state his views in the polished language of the orator, tended to obscure, in some quarters. his worth and value as a member of the upper House. The Democrats will lose a valuable asset at the outgoing of Jim Ham, even as the Republicans suffered when Bert She'll turned his back upon the House of Representatives Both of the gentlemen mentioned are seasoned politicians and will be content to live quietly in the ShadOwy oblivion that they have chosen of their own free will and accord. They will make no pro test if none but their former col leagues in Washington give them more than occasional thought. The politician, pehaps better than anyone else, realizes that the world will little note nor long remember"

Mr.. Poor has stretched up on a
neighboring wall to work by.
In between, men in q marsh
will be seen, releasing banded
geese, while the sky over their
heads is alive with birds. Along
the shore will be trumpeter swans,
flamingoes, pelicans, cranes,

Amid the woodland scenery ami

and rabbits, a grizzly bear and
cubs, foxes. deer stalking along a
slope a bobcat in tree, badgers,

cession has crawled from Mr..
Poor's brush with alert forest
tread.
Mr.. Poor has trudged in Western
forests and has done the equiva-
lent Of a piece of personal pioneer
ing in the East, by building his
stone house in the New York State
countryside with his own hands,
with a few helpers. Deer some
times draw near to that home, so
quiet are its surroundings, so Mr..
Poor did not have to stir much
farther than his own doorstep to
capture some Of the atmosphere
which he is transplanting on the
wall here.
"But in the two years that
I've been planning this mural,
I've made a trip or two to the
West" he added, pointing out
some of his recent observations.
But his exploration of the West
really began in Kansas where he
was born and in California
where he early studied art.
I'm doing this mural in true
freSco," he pointed out, explain
Ing that he marks off the space
that he expects to cover in a day
and that his daughter helps him to
put on the thin coat Of plaster In
the morning.
