What major studio had to call off

We Just heard the story about an
eminent foreign director who was
recently brought over to work at a
certain Hollywood studio. The new
comer is a swell puy, they say, but
must have believed all those legends
about the luxury of Studio ofllces.
Anyway, ho was giving directions
about the furnishing of his, and was
telling an amazed minion of the

"And, oh yes," ho concluded, "I'd

Lincoln Grew Beard
At Suggestion Of
An 11-Year Old Girl
Letter Is On Display At Wash
ington. Lincoln Started
Beard Immediately
Falling Flagpole Kills Two Men
An eleven year old girl promoted
Abraham Lincoln's beard in the midst
of the 1800 presidential campaign and
proof of her succe.-s along this ultra
modern line of endeavor may be seen
by any visitor to Washington. The
little girl was Grace Bedell, whose
home wafi Westfield, N. J..
The episode was brought to the at
tention of the writers who are prepar
ing articles on the Capital for the
American Guide, the Government's
forthcoming travel handbook.
In 1800 Mr. Lincoln was clean
shaven and more than a triffle gaunt.
None of his masculine supporters
guessed that his rather amaciated ap.
pearance would have any effect on
the voters all male in those days
but the ladies had a better under
standing of popular psychology. Prob
ably after having heard a good deal
of talk on the subject at the sewing
circles and elsewhere in her village.
Miss Bedell wrote Mr. Lincoln on Oc
tober 15, 1800, the following letter:
"Dear Sir: My father has just
come home from the fair and brought
home your picture and Mr. Hamlin's.
1 am a little girl only eleven years old,
but want you should be President of
the United States very much so I hope
you won't think me very bold to write
to such a great man as you are. Have
you any little girls about as large as
I am. If so (five her my love and
tell her to write to me if you cannot
answer thifi letter. I have got four
brothers and part of them will vote
for you anyway and if you will let
your whiskers grow I will try and get
the rest of them to vote for you. You
would .look a great leal better for your
face is so thin, All the ladies like
whiskers and they would tease their
husbands to vote for you and then
you would be President. My father
is going to vote for you and if I was
a man I would vote for you too but
I will try and get everyone to vote for
you that I can. I think that rail

Two men were killed and three other pedestrians injured, one of
them critically, when a 100-foot steel flagpole weighing more than
a ton toppled 13 floors from the roof of a Peoria, 111., building into
a crowd on the sidewalk in the heart of the city's business section.!
Above photo shows the body of Matthew Burrows, 52, one of thow
killed, lying beside a piece of the shattered flagpole.,'
fence around your picture makes it
look very pretty. I have got a little
baby sister, she is nine weeks old and
is just as cunning as can be. When
you answer, address your letter direct
to Grace Bedell, Westfield, Chautauqua
County, New York.
"I must not write anymore, an
swer this letter right off. Goodby,
Grace Bedell."
Mr. Lincoln saw the point and start
ed in immediately to raise a crop of
whiskers, though he felt ashamed of
himself for doing it, as is indicated in
the reply which he sent his youthful
girl advisor on October 19:
"My dear little Miss: Your very
agreeable letter of the 15th is re
ceived. "I regret the necessity of saying I
have no daughters, I have three sons
one seventeen, one nine, and one seven
years of age. They, with their moth
er, constitute my whole family,
"As to the whiskers, having never
worn any, do you not think people
would call it a piece of silly affecta
tion if I were to begin now? Your
very sincere well wisher, A. Lincoln."
These letters are now on display in
a little cabinet at the Lincoln Museum.
