P0TEMT1AL RESOURCES OF ALASKA- DISCUSSED AT ROTARY MEETING That Alaska Is a country yet in ita infancy, as countries live, that soma day" softer airs may blow over it3 fields of ice and snow but that, for some time to come, it will be unprofitable for adventurers to seek their fortunes .there, was the substance of a paper read before the Rotary club by Prof. J. F. Thompson of, the Morton high school faculty, at the Tuesday noon luncheon meeting of that organ. ization. - The quite lengthy discourse entitled "An Unfinished Country," Is the work of Professor Thompson, it having consumed a great part of his spare time during an entire year. In it he dwells at length on the power of water as a geologic factor. it3 force in the history of the worTd when countries and continents have been- cut away, by its erosive potency. Stories of strange lands and countries of long ago, unknown in any history except the speculative history of modern geology, were discussed in the paper. That the northern portion of the present North America was once th6 west section of a great trans-Atlantic continent' was the speculation related in the paper which also told : of a country which lay just west of ! the Straits of Gibraltar, related in leg ends as Atlantis, and which sank into the ocean at the time of the raising of I South America above the surface of ane water. All of this historic geology was disi cussed to show that at some future I time the climate and nature of Alaska l might be other than It is at present, and that it might some day be a coun 'try able to. support a population rthrough the development of agrlcul 'ture. Preceding, the reading , of the paper, Will Reller introduced to the members the present membership drive i of the Y. M. C. A., stating that if for no other reason the boys' work of the "Y" should be sufficient to warrant the membership of every Rotarian Following the noon session, the mem bers of the club adjourned to the home of the late Rotarian t)mar G.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

IMPRESSIONS OF OLD GUAR HOMESTEAD TOLD

BY K0K0M0 WRITER IN Eva K. Graves, writing m the Kokomo Despatch about the old Gaar homestead, north of the city, says: Recently a Kokomo visitor in a car which "wended its way through circling driveways and stopped in.front of the 4-Abram Gaar homestead 'near Rich mond, over which the sunshine, autumn tinted, cast a kind of halo. And there was about f he place a sort of pathetic appeaL as though it would inform us, it had stood for a better home for many years . The terraced hill-crest on which the fine old homestead , of aristocracy stands seems an IdeaL location, as if the home-builder had it In his soul to be charmed by ' the picture which would present itself -to the residents there, as the changing seasons arrived. And surely something of the thrill which this one-time prominent manu facturer must have experienced when he decided the new home should be built there, came to the visitor while looking out across the broad fields and beheld a valley scene, a rival of California valley scenes, because of the work of the October artist so effectively done- in the stretches of woodland dotted here and there. Interesting Skyline. The skyline of Richmond some two or three miles in the distance was of interest. Also a long train of cars and several motor cars-were noted, the latter flitting past the Eggemeyer home, so artistically situated that aay onecould easily guess, one of Rich mond s best known artists lives there. Other motor cars whizzed along on the Gaar road which stalked right up to the corporation line and told it to stop. ine -tail doors and windows of the fine old homestead of artistocratic earing, seemed to be gathering in -i .... much of the October sunshine, as it filtered in through vines and Bhrubbery and trees, which, if given voice, could relate interesting stories of how tney Happened to be Jhere. A certain species of oak from the Black Forests of Germany, looked for eign indeed, and the wisteria vine from the entwined lattice seemed to smile lovingly at the sacred tree of Japan with its myriads of dainty fan shaped leaves looking as though growing pur posely to serve as hair ornaments for the Geisha girls. Charms of Flowers. The big lilac and snowball bushes seemed to whisper that they had supyimu nowers as ornaments or as aecorations many times in the old home, while the old grape vine whispered something about luscious clusters of fruit from the long arbor. The tall tulip poplars with their wealth of October gold, seemed to state they had kept guard there on the hill crest many years and the beautiful white birch seemed to smilingls respond" yea" to that statement. Then a sassafras tree of some 40 summers called loudly and looked as though aflame out near the old house which had been moved to the background when the more pretentious home took its place. . There was a peculiarly, pathetic appeal about the old house, as though it would like to tell the visitor stories of the early dajrstruggles, of the interesting family life, when it had been home to the pioneer manufacturer and his family. Though the house is far from looking neglected for in its new white dress, with frills of green shutters, it sent one's thoughts -across country to the New England states. Home'fvr Others And today it Berves as a comfortable home for others who are kept busy on the old home place. Though Mrs. Hayden who has been the trusted housekeeper for 20 years, live3 in a part of the big house, she and her family keeping watch there for five years when the fine old house was left practically .closed after the death of Mrs. Gaar in 1906, her husband having passed away in 1S94. The three sons, Clem, Oliver and Sam. residing in comfortable homes in Richmond, and the daughter, Nellie Gaar Stratton, in her comfortable home in Chicago, evidently felt there was a sacredness about the place and all it had stood for as a home, and could not easily decide what arrange ments were best to be made concerning its further service as a home. It is serving well In that capacity to day, however, and seemed to smile as though proudly aware of the fact that a granddaughter and her family call it home now. It was interesting to be ushered" into the spacious old home by two of the sons and their wives. And as the sons, who some years ago walked past tbe half century milestone marking birthday anniversaries, stopped to place their hats on the big hall-tree near a splendid picture of their father, there was something in their attitude which bespoke reverence as though they almost felt the presence of their loved father. Books Invite Inspection Cases on either side of the fireplace call loudly to anyone who cares forbooks. And one longed to have timer- to delve into the pages of the volumes so loved in years gone by. The son proudly brought out one of his father's school books, containing the work the father had dono-in 1843 in geometry. The figures were eo carefully done one could not help wondering if that was not the very beginning which led this man to become a pattern maker and finally led on ana on to the time when he became president of the Garr, Scott and company firm, a company which manufacture! threshing machinery in Richmond. Tlfe story of Abram Gaar's interest in machinery and finally in threshing machinery reads like a story book.

SUN - TELEGRAM, RICHMOND,

PICTURESQUE MANNER For then, as now, It was not all easy sailing in the mechanical world not even after ascending the ladder to the place of president of a manufacturing establishment Picture of Brothers Upstairs In the old home is a picture of the four brothers who "fought the fight" in the early days of the threshing machinery companyvAbram was the pattern maker, two of the brothers machinists and one a black smith. None of them are here now to re late the story of the trials of those early days in Indiana. But others of the family remember some of tho stories told them. Out in tbe big hall of the old home it was of interest to have a son open his father's desk, show how carefully he kept books, keeping strict account of all family expenses, listing the board for both his sons, and their horses when they drove to town to school. ' A little white safe bearing mother's name Agnes Gaar stood near the old desk, and is treasured aa a family keen sake. v A newspaper, "The Western TjUer bearing the date of Jan. 11, 1828, pubj nsnea in Cincinnati by j. w.uaziey. was of interest. , Wonder Why Preserved. One wondered if it had been pre served because of the long article about Dhrenologyi which seemed to be something new, or for some politi cal fuss over John Quincy Adams, or the barbariiies of the Franciscan Friars some one had witnessed in 1812-14 or the notes from Gibraltar. The bill of furniture was in the old desk too, showing the lovely old fur niture had been bought in 18 1 7. The beautiful handsomely carved black walnut table in the parlor with its inlaid top had been exhibited at the Centennial in Philadelphia. The top almost reflected the handsome vases thereon, even as the big mirrors reflected, in the different rooms, the crystal fringed" chandeliers, also sev eral varieties- of the lamed Hill roses It was interesting to have the Hills inauire about W. W. Coles who has been a friendly rival for years and also about Tom Knipe who took his early day training in the Hill Floral train ing school. Leaves Fine Impression. One came away from the fine old home on the hill crest remembering the big rooms, the fine old furniture with here and there a touch of modern times, as one remembered the victrola music, the tea wagon, the later day silver and china in rivalry with olden time handsome black walnut furniture and woodwork. And other rooms boasting white walnut woodwork and one, bird's eye maple, trimmed with mahogany. One remembered that a deer head kept watch in the dining room and also in the upper hall and a big glass case of birds and other samples of the fine work done by Dan Johnson, the leading taxidermist of long ago times, who mounted a great deal of work for Peter Merkel, who had charge of all the restaurants between St. Louis and Pittsburgh on the Pennsylvania lines. Also that there were two big cases of curios gathered while the older folk traveled back to the 70's, which no one had handled since the dear old couple have stepped away. Hospitality Remembered But best of all one came away remembering the gracious hospitality still .in evidence in the fine old home. And somehow one remembered that the pioneer fold seemed to instill a reverence for themselves and home in the lives of their children. And today this is evident when you talk to the son, Oliver, who lives a retired life in his handsome home near the heart of Richmond, also when you talk to Clem in his beautiful home not far from the greenhouses when one talks to the son, Sam, who knows our John Jay of the Howard National bank and who could assist Mr. Jay in a write-up of the ups and downs of the banking business. This son, too, in his handsome home near the Leeds and Dudley Foulke homes would admit that the old home out on the hillcrest stood for all that we mean when we talk of better homes. Urge Private Ships Used In Coast-to-Coast Shipping WASHINGTON, Nov. 7. The shipping board - was urged today by"' the Chamber of Commerce of the United State's to discontinue the use of government-owned ships In service between Atlantic and Pacific ports. In a letter to Chairman Lasker, Julius H. Barnes, president of the Chamber, declared the coast to coast shipping was provided with adequate private-ownei tonnage and remonstrated against gov ernment craft entering into competi tion with private enterprise under presen conditions. Dr. Royal S. Copeland Wears His Lucky Hat NEW YORK, Nov. 7. Dr. Royal S Copeland, health commissioner and Democratic candidate for the senate against Senator William M. Calder, Republican, wore to the polls today a soft, black "lucky" hak, that he wore 21 years ago, when, he was elected mayor of Ann Arbor, Mich. Dr. Cope land said he expected to celebrate two events tonight, hi3 election to the Unit ed States senate, and his fifty-fourth birthday. He was accompanied to the voting place by Mrs. Coaeland, their 12-year-old son. Royal S., Jr., and the family cook. Miss Norah Moran.
