Congress- Is $50 Years Old

President Roosevelt addressed joint session of the
Senate and House occasion Of the 15Oth annver
sarv of the first Congress- and by radio his words
carried to no telling how many millions Of American ct
zens The memberships today 90 and of the
House 435 and those figures alone tell an amazing story
of Nations growth for March 4, 1889, there were
only % elected and only eight present and
Of 50 members of the House, but IA were on hand
In fact so iesurely were the members of Congress,
with bad roads playing their part that II was
impossible inaugurate George Washington as Presl-
until April 80 of that year of 1882 Day a1'ef
dav here was no quorum and the members of Congress
present struggled more or amlessly and unhappy
about New York for Washington at that time was not
even idea and its present site was but part OF the Tor
est lands along the banks of the Potomac
Eventually however, John Adams, our first Vice
President took charge of baky and uncertain Senate
and Frederick Muhlenberg elected the first Speaker
the House. Many things have been clarified since the
but some remain dim and uncertain as they were Vice
President Adams for example, said to the first Senate
according to the intimate journal of Senator William
Maclay of Pennsylvania:

Macays journal further recites that Senator Oliver
Ellsworth of Connecticut replied to Vice President
Adams question by SAYING
'Mr. President have looked the Constitution

Beware The Accident Fortune Hunter

For your own protection, be just careful after an
automobile accident you wish you had been before it
otherwise stand chance of becoming
victim of Americas popular racket, the padded
claim for accident damages-one why auto

too late and slid gently into the car ahead Bump. Both
drivers got out to inspect the damageobvousy trivial
Not to be oudone Mead replied Get that tail light fixed
and send me the bill
Two months later Mead got a letter from lawyer
demanding settlement for the strangers death He had died
of pneumonia brought on, his widow insisted. by that
bump he had hardly felt This story supported by med
cal witnesses who merely testified shat it could have
happened, not that it actually did, seemed plausible
enough for jury to award the widow $4,000 John Mead
insured for only $4,000. A mortgage his home
made up the difference
Here Mead's insurance YEARLY pointed out,
the perfect claim racket recipe Such sequence OF
events placed before sympathetic jury may result in
big money verdict anywhere in the United States But
Mead bameless: his airy acceptance of liability,
his failure to shred of defense testimony made
him easy prey
The best way to avoid setting such trap for your
self is to have accident at all But insurance Stats
tics predict you will have later and they
show that so per of smash-ups become target for
the accident fo1tune-hunter You protect yourself
