SWAPEED STORIES WITH “ABE" LINCOLN

Chauncey M. Depew, famous alter" speaker and former United States Senator, has just passed his nlnetieth birthday. He still has a firm foothold on tivia old planet and recalls the day when he was thirty and used to swap stories with Abraham Lincoln. The" dixty yeare since have kept him almost continually in the public eye. He said in an interview on his birth- day, “My mother took me to kin- dergarten 86 years ago. My view- point oi life hasn't changed much since then. I found it a pretty good world to l‘ivs lin arid the boys and girl; a fine lot."
