Thousands of (Ian- ailians who have heard him speak and who respected him for the great influence he became in the lives of millions of young people were unaware of the fact that. he “as a Canadian by birth. and that they had a better right. to claim him as “Ill! er‘their own than they have to rlaim Captain Charles Limi- tiergh whose maternal grandfather met! here at. one time. Dr. Clark's father was Charles Carey Symmes, a member of an ohl New England i'auiily. as was his mother. Mr. Symmes was a eivil engineer. and won after his marriage went to .\.\'lmer.
