 TEA5ET OF IVORY

A parcel arrived at the Terri torial Museum here yesterday from Frederick w. Hosbach who lives in Narberth, Pennsylvania.
 But the story began during the summer when the 30-year-old Pennsylvanian passed through Ju- neau. At that time he promised Ed ward L. Keithahn, curator at the Museum, that he would present the Museum with some miniatures of ivory, if he could get the material with which to make them. Mrs. Robert Simpson of the Nugget Shop provided the fossil ivory.
 And this morning Keithahn was proudly pointing out the miniature ivory tea-set, on an African ebony tatle three inches in diameter
 The Pennsylvanian had turned out the four teacups and saucers on a full-size lathe.
 He won't work on small lathe, Keithahn said. Not steady enough" :"
 Yet he turned out four teacups and saucers, the saucers only one half inch in diameter. He also made miniature teapot and sugar towl and cream pitcher.
 The cups and saucers of old ivory are so thin they are transparent, and the teapot spout has neatly drilled spout.
 The teaset joins other miniatures presented by the aged Pennsyl- vanian to the Territorial Museum miniature night-stick, modelled after those carried by Pennsylvania police and two Argillite urns.

TRUMAN'S OBLIGATION

Nevertheless, a revitalized Cabinet is che of the most important ob- ligations Harry Truman owes the people who elected him, as he takes the oath of office in his own right.
 The people who throng the grandstands along Pennsylvania Avenue and the Capitol Plaza watching the ceremonies today won't be thinking about these things. They have come to con- slider their President as the little man from Missouri who has step- red into seven-league boots
 Great things are expected of him, the man who almost Singlehanded won the highest honor in the land. lie is living proof that people can speak as they please, vote as they choose, and see their man take the oath of office. And today nobody is worried much about Cabinet.
 The next four years, however, will prove whether Harry Trumans name will take a place beside that of the Andrew Jacksons and the Franklin Roosevelts, or whether he will be classified with the Andrew Johnsons and the Calvin Coolidges. And the factor which will balance history's decision will be whether he picks men with imagination to conceive and judgment to execute.
 The wisdom of that choice will mean the difference between great ness and mediocrity But, more important, it will decide whether the little people who voted for Tru- , man and who now throng the Ma tions Capital to do him honor, will emerge four years later, disappoint- ed and diSillusioned, or proud of the fact that one of their own number led the United States on to bigger and greater things.

ing tuxedos and tails to see the man they voted for made President of the United States.
 It doesn't make any difference that Washington socialites make snide remarks about the "unwashed Trumanites." Harry Truman IS standing pat and having the folks back hom to see him sworn n.
 Herein lies Harry Trumans great est strength. A very large seg- ment of the American people love Truman because they consider nm one of their own. They admired and loved Franklin Roosevelt be- cause he was their champion. But they did not consider him one ot their own.
 Truman, however, is differnt. Ills presence in the White House IS symbol of the fact that any little haberdasher or farmer or county politician can sit in the White House-in fact, is already there.
 That is Harry Truman's greatest strength, and also his greatest oo- ligation. For he cannot let these people down.
