Anecdotes jof Georges Clemenceau
The French Tiger, Is Recounted
Intimidation Is a word mNelag
from th« otherww*-large vocabelaty
of Georges Clemenceau. During the
diplomatic lncMenta of Casablanca
in 1 aCS. the German ambassador
called on the "Tlgor," then premier
of Pram:#, end after adopting an
uncompromising attitude. Anally de
clared that if GernMtay was not given
satisfaction, he would be .-wmpeiled
to demand his passports.
"The Berlin express leaves at 9:
it is now 7 -o'elook," replied Gle
menceau. looking at his watch.
••-You'd 'bfelMr aatrr -ot yoc'll rfnisa
It"
The German -ambeeeador -did not
leave and the next day h« Informed
the premier thrft Germany wan satis
fied.
Deputy Alexander Vmremie. meet
ing Clemenceau in the lobby of the
chamber of depdtfws retitfMy, waxed
reminiscent.
"When you were premier I was in
the opposition." said the deputylrom
the left.
"So *hs I." replied Clemenee»u.
"How oould that be, when you
were president of the council?"
asked Varenne, surprised.
"Well. 1 was always In the oppo
sition against my own ministry," ;the
"Tiger" answered.
Rodin, the famous sculptor, was
| a great admirer of Clemenceau.
For many years he Urged the Old
statesman to poee for-a bust "Which
would traosmlt his feature* to 'pos
terity."
"Never mind abont the posterity
part of It," the "Ttger" Anally said
one day. "If you desire a bust of
my ugly face as'a«*ouv©nlr, 70U can
have it for youraelf."
The sculptor found Glemeoceau a
very nervous model. Continually the
premier chattered, turned hla head
on all sides, never remaining quiet
long enough to pernlit Rodm to get
the right angle to the light
But the bint was it last com
, pleted, and Clemencecu was aaked
to come to the stud'o and have aj
look 'at It
In a -critical -mood, Ibe "^Tlger"
surveyed the magnificent work, a
fcerfeCt living likeness.
'"Who la the old Mongolian gen
eral?" snapped the '"Tiger" In a
surely mood.
Rodin was greatly peered at the
lack of appreciation, and until his
death the relations between sculptor
and statesman were never as cordial
as they b#d been previously.
Clemenceau never had any patience
for (he details of technical engineer
ing. Gabriel Volsm, the motor man
ufacturer, "was explaining to the
premier one day the 'Intricacies of
'a new motor destined to Increase
the'speed df airplanes '20 per cent.
Clentenceau asked many amateurish
questions.
"You evidently don't understand
the first thing about Tph'at I am say
ing," Voisln Anally declared with
Borne Impatience.
"You're right, an'd I don't want
to," replied Clemenceau.
Clemenceau Is fearless when facing
the shells of'the enomy's guns or au
adversary's sword or pistol on the
field df honor, but he lives in dire
fear of-a Cold In the head.
In Strausaburg. during the never
to-be-forgotten voyage to the re
trieved provlirte of Alsaoe-Ldrralne,
he visaed 'most of the places of
worship of the various religions.
Catholic churches, Protestant tem
ples aiKl -synagogues
"I have chosen my religion," he
told a frlen'd one evening, "the Jew
ish religion."
His friend expressed great sur
prise.
"It Is the only religion where one
may keep one's hat on at all times,"
he explained, rubbing his bold head.
Clemeneeau's features are of pro
nounced Mongolian type.
On one of his numerous visits to
the trenches during the war, lie had
a long conversation with an officer

Humorous Description Of Ye
Old Tyme Thankgivmg Day
From picking the stuffing out of a
wild turkey to kicking the'Stuffing
out of a wild football player, Thanks
giving day observance has undergone
a decided change, even within the
ken of the present writer, who, at
that, is quite old enough to gain a
permanent home among the mum
mies at the Metropolitan Museum ol
| Art, Roy K. Moultou writes In the
New York Evening Mail. There
were days away back In !Puritan
times when people had a lot to be
thankful for it. It is still true that
u portion of our great metropolitan
I population And time to render thanks
in the old-fashioned style, but the
I rah-rah Thanksgiving haB been with
us some twenty years now, and it
seems to be gaining momentum.
In the old days they used to leave
a platter strewn with the bones of
wild turkey, and now it is the gen
eral custom to leave the gridiron
strewu with arms, legs, ears and
other more or less important Impedi
menta.
The history of a Thanksgiving day
used to be set down by tile church
clerk, and now it Is set down in jazz
by the sporting writer, all of which
goes to show that civilization Is
moving, though we can't always de
cide which way.
Ye Olde Tyine Thanksgiving.
"Know ye all men by thefe pref
entf:
"That I. Makeplace Wharburton,
governor, do nominate Thurfilay, ye
twenty-flxth of November, to be a
day of thankfglving and u day of
prayer in remembrance of the great
bleffiug we have received during the
putt year. All and fundry of the
population are ordered to attend fer
vice and profoundly render thankf
for peace and profpertty or pay pen
alty on the pillory, the ducking ftool
or the ftocks.
"MAKEPEACE WHARBURTON,
Governor."
Those were the days of real
Thanksgivings. Peleg Prouty did not
have to go to a butcher shop and
barter hlB soul, his house and lot
and his ford for a turkey. He kiss
ed his wife, Prudence, and the kids
good-by for maybe the last time, and
set forth for a wild turkey. He car
ried over his shoulder an 85-pound
blunderbuss with a sprinkler at
tachment on the muzzle which would
scatter shot over a fair-sized town
ship and would kick Peleg for a goal
when it went off. If the Indians got
a bead on him first it was goodnigiit
turkey, and if he got a bead on them
first the sprinkler attachment enabl
ed him to put the raspberry on eight
or ten of them at once.
If Peleg got home all right with
the wild turkey they had Thanks
giving. If he didn't they had a fun
eral.
The family would go to church In
the morning and r.rrivo there wlrh
several arrows sticking thru their
clothes and hats, and after good old
Elder Hudnutt had preached for four
hours and a half and finally stopped,
the congregation had something to
be thankful for.
When the feast was ready, Peleg,
his wife. Prudence, and the chlldreu.
Steadfast, Charity, Prosper, Faith,
Cromwell and Whetstone, seated
themselves about the table, the mom
would suddenly fill with smoke for
the reason that there would be an
Indian sitting on the chimney lop
trying to smoke them out and glom
the turkey and Peleg's flagon of fire
water.
Indians Took Part.
Peleg would nonchalantly wander
over to the fireplace and throw a
handful of gunpowder into It and
the Indian would make a dash for
the creek near by. angrily pursued by
his burning breechclout.
Peleg would return to tha feast
and say, "Fo.- what we are about
to receive let us be truly thankful."
And he received it quickly. A noble
redman poked his arm through th6
window and firmiy nicked Peleg on
the bean with a tommyhawk. 3eing
a hard-headed Puritan, Peleg would
go on with his dinner after throwing
the tommyhawk back over his
shoulder and catching Mr. Shinne
cock just below the Adam's apple.;
The afternoon was given over to
meditation and reflection.
Celebration of Today
But nowadays they gather In 3omo
jazz restaurant and the host says:
"For what we havn't had durlns the
past year under the Volstead act let
us be—well, anyhow, some'ning
like that. The waiter does notrivh
through the window and tap him
with a tomrayhawk, but ha hit? him
for a $56.75 check and a $10 t'p.
And instead of spending the after
noon in meditation and prayer, as
Peleg did, his great-great-great-great
great-grandson sits in a grandstand
with 15,000 other heretics and they
yell:
"Freshwater's got the ball!"
"Freshwater, Freshwater, zip.
boom, "bah! Freshwater, Freshwa
ter, rah, rah, rah!"
"Go It, Corasllk! Now, boys, the
Cornsllk locomotive:
•' Ra h-rah -rah-rah-rah-rah—Corn
slirk, Cornsiik—hip, hip,hip.hip,hip,
hoorah!"
'And after the game Peleg's des
cendant -accompanies a young dapper
to a hotel for dinner, where he gets
a .piece of turkey through which ho
can read the name of the cafe and
mate out its coat-of-arms In the cen
ter of the plate and calls it a feed.
The only folks funnier than ths
old ones are the new ones.
