the homecoming traveler or the vis- Mrs. Smith went back to her trade as

itor who enters the harbor for the

first time.

Looking down from that bridge iu a southeasterly dire-ctiuu oue can see a wilderness of tenements forming chasms of brick and mortar. These shelter the people of the congested East Side of New York City. Alfred R Smith, the father, was born in 1S4U. He was born on Water Street near Oliver in the same neighborhood in which he later raised his children. His occupation was that of | truckman. In those days long before the advent of the automobile and motortruck, the men who drove through the city hauling merchandise were enabled to derive sufficient income to cupport a small family in a modest way. The eider Smith was a muscular man who had known hard labor

since childhood.

Smith's mother was ten years younger than his father and was born in 1850 In a corner store on Dover end Water Streets, also in the lower East Side. She helped tier parents in the store and aided her mother with the household work and thus wan

ave- j

nues and streets of a household of I her own in which there was no ser-

vant assistance.

Bmith's parent* were childhood , sweetheart* in the neighborhood and ! were married in 1*71 by a prie*t in 1 the Roman Catholic Church, In which faith botli of them had been reared and which they were later to give to

their children.

Among the earliest recollections of

were the return of his father a hard day's work driving

through the avenue* and streets of the city, grimy with the dost of the neglected thoroughfares and wet with the perspiration that came from his labor. He would take off his outer garment and when asked, "Why do you do It?” would amw-er "To cool otT.'' He would then plunge his head end arms In cold water with a delight

that bora out his statement.

The father of Smith v as such a hard-working man that the son did not enjoy the Intimate oaternal association that is the good fortune of many other lads. Always up and at work at six o’clock, often the boy was In bed when be returned In the evening. Only on Sundays and holidays did the eldt-r Smith have the free days permitting him to upend his time uninterruptedly with his wife and children. Governor Smith cherishes, however. many memories of association with his father. Once, hand in hand, they walked completely acr,»*s Die East River, which by some miracle was frozen over. Th* father Inculcated in the son a fondues* tor swimming. which the Governor still indulge!. He taught the son to swim by tying a rope around his body and letting him inter the water, taking liis first strokes "dog fashion," and later developing Into one of tliu best swimmers of the neighborhood. Bwiraniing was a favorite sport ot many of the boys of the lower East Side. Ha played with bis friends about the wharves and the longshoremen recognized him as a "water rat." The term applied to the youngsters - ho spent * large part of the tltnu In the river. Smith also mills a walk across the wooden planks of Brooklyn Bridge before it was finished. The father was eager to enjoy the proud privilege of saying he was the first to cross the great bridge before its completion. Smith's a.tso'-latlon with bis mother cover 'll a much longer time Dian that with his father bec.»u»u she lived until Mar 18. 1921. Flu- saw her eon twice elected Governor and his name

The rules were ! mostly simple, and simply expressed, i One of the saying* of Mrs. Smith that ! has come down to us Is, “Show a child the difference between right and wrong, and he will choose the right." | It has also come down to us that she put much emphasis on telling the truth and on not making excuses. These simple mien of conduct were heartily backed up by her husband. It was also related of Mrs. Smith ( that the was decidedly attentive to 1 the dress and neatness of the cliil- ! dren. The Governor was one of the most neatly dn-ssed boys in the neighborhood, and ever since be has always been a careful dresser, even though his sartorial habit most eztmmented on Is the angle at which he sometimes

They had four rooms, a front room, two bedrooms and a kitchen. Above these was an attic where the children often played.

CHAPTER H

Governor Smith’s earliest ambition \yas to be a b-tter-carrier, but roon ho passed this by and thought that the life of a fireman was more exciting. When the guiig at the fire Million rang young Smith always wonld do his utmost to get to the station liotise of Engine Company number 82 on John Street in time to see the firemen drive out. The boy s ton became a favorite around the En- ine Company. He became in a sense the mascot Bt the station house. When he heard the stroke of the fire-alum, he would make for the c -iffee can ami the sandwich basket kept near the entrance; and when horses, men and engines had darted ou' of the doors, he w.i* the one to close them. Then he and the lire dog together—he carrying the coffee can and tha sandwich basket— would dash to the place where Die fire was. He hud learned to locato It by the number of rings of Die hell. It It was a false alarm, or If the fire were alight, he would return with the firemen on the engine, the envy of his boy friends. How proudly he leaped from the engiuo and oponed the tire house door! If the fire waz serious, he would go to the restaurinti, wbere he was known by th!* time, and get coffee and sandwiches for the men. He v-a* mn;-* icruptilous thsn a Dutch house 'If? 1u keeping the cun brilliantly polished, in fact, in keepADVERTISE THE HERAIJ)

tug all his utensil* shipshape. When his work was done—a man’s—the lad would go home to delight the family with the tale of the day’s doings. In spite of certain enthusiastic traditions, there is no reason to suppose | that "Al” made any great Impression I as a scholar. He did his work easily ! and was always steady nnd always ! liked. He was proficient in public i speaking, and be won a silver medal I in an oratorical competition among I the boys of the parochial school* of j New York with a recitation on th* I death of Robespierre. This ellver medal j now reposes in the jewel box of Mrs. j Smith. It is a simple triangle hung ! from a small silver bar and has eni graved on it, "Alfred E. Smith for Elo- | cutlon.’’ Two boys were selected to compete from every parochial school In the city. From Smith’s school one veprej sented the seniors and one the junI iors. The one who represented the seniors Inter became Father Grady, whom Smith lost sight of for many years until he met him accidentally In a church in Mamaroneck In the summer of 1927. Smith represented the Juniors. The winners from all over the city took part In a contest held In Manhattan College in Manhattanville. The boy* had n great frolic on this occasion. They spent their money, which should have been kept for carfare to ride cross-town, on bolivars (big round molasses cakes, popular with the boys of that day, costing * cent apiece) and bottles ot pop and had to walk abont two miles or more through what was then a country district to make their last nickels available for the long ride from 125th Street and Third Avenue to Chatham Square. No decision was given at the time. Two or three day* later the Brother in charge of the school told the boy* that he took great pride in announcing that both prizes, senior and Junior, had been won by the school of the parish of St. James. On those Friday afternoons of Impromptu speaking, when the students had to talk not from memory, but from notes, Alfred had originality ot expression, a natural manner and magnetism. His old teacher. Brother Baldwin, refers to one characteristic in school which has always been with him—a marked power of concentration. He was always able to concentrate on the meat of the subject he was Interested in nnd to rent- mber the essentials. He never burdened his mind with excess material which could not be of use to him. While still a student in si bool “Al's’ business career began. With twenty cents capital he v ent into a business as a newsboy. He would sell one batch of papers and then buy more. A large part of the profits he took home, and his contribution for the support of the family was needed and appreciated. He had a growing sister, and his father’s health began to fall, and when "Al” was not yet thirteen year* old bis father died. For two years previous to Ibis time he had to give up the work of a truck driver and accept less remunerative employment as a watchman. When "Al" was fifteen he was forced to quit school and look bis regular full time Jub as a business hunter for a truckman, for whom he worked from 1880 to I89U. In the latter he became an otflce buy and assistant clerk in an oil factory. In 1892 he worked in the Fulton Fish Market as a combination salesman and assistant bookkeeper for John Feeney A- Co. at $12 a week and all the fish he wanted. He soon had experience enough lo pick a good blucflsh to take home to bis mother. He worked from 4 A. M. to 4 1\ M., and on Friday t torted at 3 A. M. He had u half holiday on Saturday. From Fulton Market at that time there was distributed more sea food than from any other point In the world. It still Is the largest receiving and distributing point outside of Bos ton. The stall* still stretch along the water much a* they did, although details of the scene have changed, lu those day a fishing was not so highly organized. The fish were brought to port in little sailing smacks, each smack owned by its captain. As the smack came up to the wharves the captains waited for the various dealers to put In their bids. Now. while some of these small vessels still exist, most of the fish are brought in by steam trawlers, which wait out at the fishing ground until they receive wireless messagj* that price* are right. The lively, personal bargain and sale are

gone.

Next he got a Job In Wythe Avenu-, Brooklyn, at a steam pum,. place, where he wa* railed receiving clerk, a polite name for a common laborer handling steam pipes. He had now grown hig enough and strong enough to take .“luh * job, and i increased hia earnings. Smith woa married on May G, 1900, to Catherine Dunn. The ceremony took place at St. Augustine’s Church at Franklin Avenue and 167th Street. Father John J. Kean, who had coached him in amateur theatricals, and whom Smith had supported in the church club ot St. Janns's, when be attempted to keep the member* of the club from frequenting saloons, performe 1 Die ceremony. Smith was then earning ?75 n month. The Governor's family now consists of bis wife aud children, A'fred E. Bmlth, Jr„ Mr*. John A. (Emily Josephine) Warner, Mr*. Francis J. (Catlterlue Alice) tjullllnnu, Arthur Williams and Walter Josaph. Walter, the youngest, Is the only one unmarried. Me has three grandchildren.
