Tou were good enough to accept the chairmanship at my request, and you and your associates have won my lasting gratitude for the time and labor you have given to preparation. However, If It Is becoming to express my preference, I wish you and your committee to know that the impression of extravagant expenditure and excessive cost would make me a very unhappy participant. I know full well that the government outlay is relatively small, and that the larger expenditure comes from the generous contributions of District citizenship, but it is timely and wholesome to practice the utter denial • of public expenditure- where there is no real necessity, and It will be a wholesome example of economy and thrift if we have the many, many thousands which the Inaugural celebration will call from the private purse of those attending. "I have sent a message of like purport to the congressional committee, and expressed the wish that no preparations or outlay of any kind be made. It will be most pleasing to me to be simply sworn In, speak briefly my plight of faith to the country, and turn at once to the work which will be calling. Again expressing my gratitude to you and your associates and to the generous people of Washington, I am very respectfully. (Signed) "WARREN G.

Pioneer Vlrape Grower Unfortunately Waa Not Satisfied With First ' >Really Excellent Reeulta.. A ^hundred years ago Dr. GL W« Grant bought a small, rock-ribbecj island in the Hudson river nearly op| posite Peeksklll. There was a general laugh at what people declared to be his folly, a^ the island was so barren and worthless that it did not seem pos* slble for anything to grow there. Doc* tor Grant, however, had ideas of hla own, and he began a growth of graped of the then new variety, the Delaware. In a very short time the island wa£ known to grape growers all over the country, and Doctor Grant was declared to have done more for grape culture than"any other maa la Amer* lea. The great business enjoyed by the physician turned his head, and he be* gan to work toward a scheme that would turn the Island Into a paradise of growing flowers, especially magnolias and rhododendrons, and he hoped to give seed or cuttings to every home in America. The result of bin attempts was bankruptcy, and he left the island, which soon went back to rock and barren soil.
