The thing that Polly Polk longed for, the chilâ€" dren of today have abundantly. Toâ€" day‘s children will never make quaint samplers to hand down to future genâ€" erations, but,thgnhubit oi._rud!ng good books~may influence the second and even the third generation. m Such works, reflecting the artistic attempts and progress of the centurâ€" ies, have come down to us, and forâ€" tunate are those who can boast posâ€" session of even one specimen from those days. In colonial times, samplers were mfly made by girls from six to n. | Their content combined . the abhhttnmmh.umor.pie- torial effect, and the nameâ€"and age of the ‘Yorhu. The verses on these samples| were full of sentimental melsnoc:y or ‘pious a acceptance of the woes of the world, totally unsuitâ€" able, in modern thought, for little workers of such tender age. . _ The of samplers lies in the distant past, as witness the facts that Chaucer: w-rmh "en szampler" as ous with "patterns," and the English poet Skelton, in 1498, remarkâ€" ed that ladies are making samâ€" plers," History tells us that Elizabeth of York, in 1502, indulged in this quaint type of needlework, as did most of her ladiesâ€"inâ€"waiting. Of patticular interest in this collecâ€" tion is & sampler loaned by Mrs. E. L (mother of Mr. J. L. Smith Place school), which she in Ontario, Canada, in 1852.‘ She tells the story of how, as a child of nine years, andâ€"the daughter of a m in a pioneer country, she had no bleached linen on which to _ her sampler, and much to her ish distress, was obliged to. make it on homespun cloth, The ofdest piece in this collection, though not dated, is known to be over 150 old, and was exhibited at the m- Fair in Chicago. This plece, with "two samplers dated 1798 and 1822, were loaned by Mrs. E. W. Sundell of Highland Park. Other in the collection were loaned by . W,. W. Flinn, Mrs. Wilâ€" liam W , ‘the Misses Morris, and Mrs. B. ‘L. Smith of Highland Park, Mrs. F. J. Horne of Ravinia, and Mrs. Jordan of Deerfleld.
