The Traveling Salesman
In Picturization of His Gratest Stage Success
Bob Blake war a traveling salesman who was forced ta spend a
holiday in a small town. Blake was peeved at the prospects of a
dreary day until he discovered a pretty face—and with his naturel
joval appearance melted the reserve of its owner.
The incidents that follow ranged from screamingly funny sit.
uations to tense dramatic action, out of which the "Drummer" em

HISTORY BOOKS ARE WRONG
Documentary Cvidcnce Concerning
Declaration of Independence and
Lincoln's Gettysburg Speech.
The r»<T?n r:;' Ioti of Independence
wasn't signed i<n July 4. lTTii. Abra
ham Lincoln >Ii<lti't du*h off his famous
■
ope us he rode on the train to Gettys
burg. Most likely, George Wnshlllg
too never chopped down the cherry
tree. The matmseript division of the
library of cmi-ress Isn't sure about
the cherry tree episode, because
George didn't write a letter about It,
but It hold* documentary evidence re
garding the other two illusions of onr
school days, so the hNiory books that
we studied so irustfally were wrong.
The manuscript division has (he two
original drafts of the Gettysburg
speech, one carefully written on offi
cial White house stationery, partly la
pencil, ami the other in ink. hoi IT dis
playing Lincoln'* well-known hand
writing. The first draft and (he re
vised copy differ slightly from the ad
dress as it was finally delivered.
As for the Declaration of Indepen
dence, the official Journal of the Con
tinental congress for July -1. 177(1,
shows lhai on that day congress adopt
ed the declaration by vote, but the ;
signing, whlrli we make so much of.
was deferred as unimportant. Most I
of the members signed the document
a month later, while In 1781, five years
later, some other congressmen who
were not in office In 177(1 also added
their signature?', thereby gaining Im
mortality.
