A letter today tells me: "The
other day a friend.of mina came
to visit me with her young son.
AS I have many lovely knick-
knackS around the room-Which
know are a great temptation
to small children to pick up and
examine-I took those within
his reach away, and put them
where he could not get at them.
1 understand that this friend
was highly inSulted over this
and told a mutual friend that
she will not come to my house
again. Will you please tell me if
she has grounds to feel hurt?"
It seems to me that if her
child is so perfectly brought up
that she knows he will not pick
up your lovely knickknacks, she
should have been proud to be
able to tell you so, instead OF
going away silently and feeling
hurt.
Opening Dentist Office
Dear Mrs. Post: A very dear
friend of mine whom have
known since childhood is pre-
pairing to open his own office. He
is q dentist. Would it be proper
to send him a present at this

some suggestions as to what
would be proper to send.

BY Edward BoYkin

Outward from the east and west
rooms Jefferson built shallow extensions
inclosing stairways that led to the lower
half-story and kitchen, which was
directly below the square central salon.
And below the kitchen was that utter
necessity as far as Jefferson was con-
cerned-the wine cellar!
At Poplar Forest, Jefferson INDUCED
his liking for trick beds. Across the
center of his east and west rooms he
built beds that divided the room into
two, so that the occupant could get out
of bed in either a dressing room or
study
Today, you approach Poplar Forest
from the north, which it faces. In
Jefferson's time. it was just the opposite.
You come to rise in the road through
the woods and suddenly there, quar-
ter-mile away, across graceful, sweep
ing fields, you see Jefferson's Greek
temple retreat, with its portico peering
above pillows of box Coming closer,
you find 13 patriarchal poplars rising
before the house like ancient sentinels.
Jefferson left them standing there to
commemorate the original 13 States.
The setting is idyllic, with the Peaks
of Otter silhouetted against the far
western sky. But time has taken its
toll of the mansion. A fire in 1845
ravaged the interior. It was immedi-

more famous mountaintop home, he
installed ingenious devices for making
living easier and more enjoyable.
You will find few references to Poplar
Forest in his writings. To only the
barest few of his intimates did he ever
mention the place. He knew that once
it got abroad the bear hunters, the
politicians, the office seekers and the
strangers would come trampling his
lawn and crowding his porticos
Only one conspicuous guest was ever
invited to Poplar Forest. This was Gen.
Andrew Jackson, who paused there
while on his way to Washington in
1915 to receive the Nations thanks for
his victory at New Orleans.
Jefferson began building Poplar
Forest in 1906 while he was President.
He occupied it even before 1t was fin
ished in 1911. In his house-planning,
for himself as well as others, he ran to
geometrical design. So with Poplar
Forest, which is an octagon house so
feet in diameter, built around square
central chamber lighted from above
and entirely surrounded by four octag-
onal rooms. An entrance hall cuts
through the north octagonal room to
the front portico, dividing this room
into two hexagonal rooms. Jefferson's
corner fireplaces are masterpieces. "Sus-
pended" the experts call them.

THOMAS JEFFERSONS SECRET HONE

ately restored, though with modiflca-
tions of the original layout.
Jefferson inherited the plantation
from his wife, who died in 1882. Orig
inally, 1t embraced about 1900 acres
and was called Bedford because it was
in the county Of that name It had
then only a small cottage near the road.
To this cottage Jefferson fled with his
family in 1881, when the British raider,
Tarleton, dashed up to Monticello,
hoping to snare the author of the
Declaration of independence. Here,
also, Jefferson began writing his cele-
brated "Notes on Virginia."
Jefferson was President when he
decided to build the mansion. When
he died. in 1925, he bequeathed the
estate to his grandson, Francis Epps,
only child of his daughter Maria, who
died during Jefferson's presidency. In
1928, Epps sold the place to william
Cobbs: who in 1882 willed it to his
daughter, Mrs. Edward S. Hutter. For
1l8 years 1828-1946) it was the home
of succeeding generations of the Cobbs-
Hutter family, who carried on its tradi-
tions of quiet, gracious living.
In 1946 Poplar Forest was sold to
J. Owen Watts, an attorney, who is
slowly restoring the mansion to its
Jeffersonian glory. Some day, perhaps,
Poplar Forest may become, like Month
cello, a mecca for the many admirers
of the great statesman who waS alSo
Americas first great architect.

THOMAS JEFFERSON was the only
Il President of the United States to
build for himself secret "other home"
where he could steal away from the
cares of state or escape the swarms
of friends and strangers who over
ran Monticello during his long ex-
presidency.
Few Americans have heard Of this
charming place that Jefferson named
Poplar Forest for the virgin groves
that once encompassed it. Monticello,
known throughout the world, has long
had the spotlight all to itself, but
Poplar Forest was Jefferson's home,
too Here he spent many carefree days
with his family.
Even today, the whir of traffic never
disturbs the quiet of Poplar Forest. 1t
stands much as he left 1t 100 years ago,
in the foothills of the Blue Ridge, near
Lynchburg, Va. In Jeffersons day, 1t
was remote-90 miles from Monticello
and surrounded by 1000 protecting
acres.
Here he fled for privacy as often as
four times a year, sometimes with a
granddaughter or two to enliven the
scene. Not until the infirmities of 30
years made travel too great burden
did he discontinue his visits. His last
visit was in 1928, three years before
his death.
Like Monticello, Poplar Forest is an
architectural gem, a classic example of
Palladian architecture. In it, as in his

PORT SURVEY IN
STATE PLANNED
AT EARLY DATE
Citizens Urged to Furnish
Aid On Effort to Improve
Our Waterways

Have you any special know
ledge or suggestions that should
be brought to the attention of
the engineers now making an
overall study of ways and means
for the better use and develop
ment of small ports, inland
waterways, and other areas in
this and 40 other North Carolina
counties?
If you have, write them down
and send them to Director Ben E.
Douglas of the State Department
of Conservation and Develop
ment at Raleigh.
The survey was authorized by
the 1858 General Assembly after
it had been requested by the De-
partment of Conservation and
Development and the North
Carolina Coastal Marine Council
as . step toward further develop
ment of the Al counties included
in the area to be studied.
Boards of county commission
ers, other groups and individuals
living in the Al counties en-
braced in the survey are asked
to send their ideas and sug-
gestions on the survey to Director
Douglas, who has said he will
turn them over to engineers
making the study. All suggestions
will receive equal consideration
whether informal pencil memoir
anda or we'll documented official
presentations, Douglas said.
'It should be noted" Douglas
said, that although the develop
ment of coastal inland waterways
and ports is the primary concern
of the present study there are
few, if any, commercial activities
in this general area which do not
have at least an indirect bearing
upon such developments. Agri
culture, forestry, fisheries, in
dustry, recreation, tourist trade,
transportation and tariffs via rail,
water trucks, and air; marketing,
credit and cooperatives represent
only the main headings and more
obvious aspects of the overall
economic picture"
Counties included in the survey
are: Currituck, Camden, Pasquo-
tank, Perquimans, Chowan, Hert-
ford, BERTHE, Washington, Tyrrell,
Dare, Hyde, Beaufort, Pamlico,
Craven, Carteret, Onslow, Pen
der, New Hanover, Brunswick,
