CRANE LIFTS WAGONS
of
BENJAMIN FRANKLIN'S FACE
IN BRONZE NEEDS CLEANING
Effigy in Front of Postoffice "Rudely
Treated by Time and Weather.
Patriots who promenade Chestnut
street In the vicinity of the Postoffice are
becoming annoyed by the condition of the
status of Benjamin Franklin, espoelally
the face, which Is dirty. Also thore Is a
whit: line extending from his chin to his
waistcoat, as though ho hod been eating
gruel In a hurry and without a napkin.
When the statue was placed on Its
pedestal in front of the Federal Building
the face bore a nice coat of paint. Wind
and rain are no respecters of patriots'
statues, however, and acted toward
Franklin as they habitually do with a
fence or a barn.
Some irreverent comments on the con
dition of the statue are heard from the
passersby. Others, more patriotic, fall to
hco anything funny about It and feel that
something should be done to restore the
benign appearance of the face.
