The fifteenth President of Unit-
ed States, James Buchanan, whose
statute has been placed in Buchan-
an Park at Lancaster, and was re-
cently unveiled, is recalled by one
of Mt. Joy’s oldest citizens, Frank
B. Groff, 73, of North Market St.,
who remembers distinctly that this
Buchanan, bought him his first suit
of dress clothes, when he was four
years old.
It was during the time when his
father, Jacob Groff, who was then
known as Grove, was proprietor of
The Washington House Hotel at
Elizabethtown, that the former
President stopped at the hotel.
Jacob Groff was a prominent
Democrat of Lancaster county, and
at the head of various Democratic
organizations of the country at the
time, as well as a very close and
personal friend of “Jimmy” Buch-
anan, as he was known to the
Groff family.
Buchanan often stated he wanted |
to present the lad with his first suit
of dress clothes,
This wish was granted by Frank’s
father, and Jimmy bought the suit
which Frank Groff wore with great
pride.

you recall reading in
the newspapers the case of
Gretchen, the girl who poisoned
her father—and then, at her trial,
refused to utter a word in her
own defense. You read of her
conviction and incarceration.
There, apparently, the story
ended. But really it was only the
beginning of one of the most
amazing human dramas ever
enacted.
In prison Gretchen performed
her duties in utter silence; noth-
ing interested her;
she kept to herself—
an outcast branded
for life.

Q@
The man who thought a buggy was
good enough
IN THE old days, a solid, conservative citizen might sniff and tell
you he didn’t read advertising.
He didn’t think so much of the horseless carriage, either. The
telephone was newfangled, and an insult to the United States mails.
As for radio, aeroplanes, wireless photography—if they had been
born then, he probably would have thought them a bit immoral.
But he’s changed. He’s been educated. His point of view has
been made broader and more modern. He has been civilized—by
the automobile, thé telephone, radio, advertising.
Every single one has opened up new paths for him, taught him
new things. Advertising, especially. Advertising tells him the new-
est things to wear, the best things to eat. Advertising tells his wife
how to make a home up to date and attractive. Advertising tells him
the prices to pay for things he buys, saves him from the old-fashioned
ways of doing business—helps him live well, keeps him modern.
Advertising can help you. The advertisements in this paper are
here to tell you many things that make life more comfortable, more
interesting, happier. Read them faithfully. They'll keep you
abreast of the times. They'll prevent you from becoming the type of
old fogy—who—sniff—doesn’t read advertising.
