An>p<to(<i of ClotnnicMU
Paris, Nov. 20.?The departure of
Georges Clemenceau for the United
States, then to speak in person to the
American people in behalf of France,
has brought out a number of anecdotes
of "the Grand Old Man of
I Prance" who is credited with con.
tributing as much, and perhaps more,
chan any other statesman to bringing]
about the downfall of Germany in the
. world war by Ailing France with the
invincible spirit of the conqueror.
After a life-time of vicissitudes,
j Clemenceau once declared: "I am
.ounger now than I was ten years
go." He said this even while carrying
in his body the bullet of an assassin,
and while suffering from a broken
* >.ib sustained while crossing the English
channel.
Explaining his remark, the former
Premier declared: "Idleness and old
age are twin sisters. I avoid them.
The way to keep young and vigorous
& never to let ycur mind grow inacItive
and to work, work, work. Preserve
strength of mind and you van
quisn age; tbat is the secret of perpeual
youth.
"I believe it is weak-minded to grow
old," he told certain members of his
suite after his famous anti-Bolshevik
speech in Strasbourg in 1919. Clemenceau's
day had been a hard one,
* with many receptions, journeys and
discussions of serious diplomatic questions
but he appeared at dinner that
night fresher than many of his young
colleagues.
It was some time before this while
be was on one of his customary jaunts
into the country, when he walked 10
or 12 miles without showing very
great fatigue, that he discovered his
now famous retreat, a two-roomed
fisherman's hut close to the seashore,
near Ducan, in Vendee. Bare of comforts
and conveniences it is just the
kind of a shelter the "Tiger" of
France would seek for a well-earned
rest. It is only a short distance from
the former Premier's birthplace and
rtands almost alone on the barren
ands. Often he walks to the village
where he converses with the old town
folk, a few of whom knew him as a
boy.
Clemenceau'9 rigorous life was continued
even after he accepted President
Poincare's invitation to form a
war ministry in 1917, when for the
second time be became nremier of
France. In civil life he arose with the
birds and retired often at sunset. A
glass of milk and a few crackers was
his usual repast at 3 a. m., in summer
and 4:30 o'clock in winter. An hour
or two later he sat down to a hearty
breakfast, the main portion of which
was generally a dish of macaroni and
rheese with melted butter. Aboul
12:30 p. m., he indulged in luncheon
a simple meal of a couple of eggs, perhaps,
and a few vegetables. Dinnei
at 7 p. m. was practically meatless
consisting largely of vegetables mnc
fruits. He eats very slowly.
During the war the pressure of affairs
of state often forced him tc
alter his sleeping habit and there were
occasions when, for two and three
nays at a time, the aged premier and
minister of war never removed bis
? clothing, buf caught mere snatches oi
i rest of a few minutes' duraton on a
' lounge in his office. In peacetime,
\ however, Clemenceau has a less strenIi
ous program. In summer, as soon as
he arises, he takes to his garden in
Ihe rear of his town apartment, ini
pjcting the flower beds and the
? -hrubbery and trees, pruning off dead
[ branches and pulling weeds. He thus
f finds rest from the turmoil of politics
[ ind the cares of office.
Clemenceau, it is not generally
known, was formerly a physician. He
came to New York in 1866 but abandoned
the practice of medicine to
teach school at Stamford, Conn. He
married an American girl in 1869
M iss Mary Plummer, of New York,
and returned to France a few years
later. '
He entered the French National
Assembly in 1871, became president
of the municipal council of Paris in
1875, and was elected to he Chamber

an invitation of the president
[ of France to form a ministry. In the
general wreck of French politicians
caused by the Panama scandal of
1892, he failed of reelection to the
Chamber, but in 1902 he was sent to
the Senate. Meanwhile he had fought
!six or seven duels and had won fame
is a vitriolic writer. From 1906 to
I 1909 he was premier. He was an
anti-Clerical and fought for the separation
of church and sate. tHe led
several political fights which results
in the downfall of as many ministeries.
In 1914, at the beginning of the
war, he established in Paris L'Homme
Libre, a paper so bitterly anti-administration
that it was suppressed. Soon
after it reappeared in Bordeaux under
the name of L'Homme Enchaine.
Clemenceau refused to be silenced in
exposing government abuses growing
out of the war. When the Bolo Pasha
and Caillaux revelations awakened

brought about by Clemenceau, the
"Tiger's" popluarity became nationwide.
President Poincare called upon
the veteran statesman in November,
1P17, when all France was depressed
by the defeatist propaganda and her
troops werts suffering sorely in the
f-cld, to head a new war ministry.
Interpellated in the Chamber of Deputies
as to what his "far aim" would
be, he white-haired premier replied:
"My aim is to be a victor." He expressed
at this time his opposition to
receiving Germany into any society of
nations which mght be formed after
the war, and declared:
"Men of great mnds beleve that
words have the power to liberate. The

believe it. 1 am In far action. I cannot
sea tfcatas&e ity of nations as | ^
the necessary soncltsion of tha pres. 0
ent war." Later, ihowsver, he approved
of tha Lsagaa of Nations' covenant.
I ; /
Speaking in the French senate in
<917 he decla&ff: "We will flght until
the hour1 when the enemy comes to
understand that, bargaining between
crime and right is no longer possible.
W e want a juat and strong peace, protecting
tha future against the abominations
of tbe pastl*'
"We have wpited 49 years for this
mcment," he was quoted as saying on
June 25. 1919. when the German note
mcepting the Treaty .of Peace was received
at Versailles. "This is life's
tiggest moment for me."
When the turn of the tide came in
the West, when the last German
"drivcf had spent itself and the Allies
were breaking the Hindenburg
line, he said: v"The day of glory has
come! Our sons are completing the

with brotherly-nations are securing a f
! supreme victory. All right-minded 1
numanity is with our troops who are '
liberating the world from the fury of i
j an evil force." <
Shot by the 19-year-old anarchist, J
. Emile Cotton, on Feb. 2, 1919, Clem- '
| cnceau joked with the doctor who at- (
tended him. "The anarchists hunted ]
j the 'tiger' but they missed Jiim," he i
| remarked. Cotton was sentenced to ]
l death, but Clemenceau urged commu- t
, tation and the youth received 10 1
t years' imprisonment. When President {
I Wilson called to express his sympathy
the aged statesman told him his t
' "hide" was "too thick for a bullet to {
, pierce." ? t
> Upon the completion of the draft of j
I the Peace Treaty by the Supreme In- j
ter-Allied conference, Clemenceau, (
I who had presided at the historical
gathering, bade his colleagues adieu c
, with the observation: "I have done ^
my best. I think it is a good peace."- ^
Although a radical in French poli- t
\tics, Clemenceau had no use for Bolshevism.
Questioned about the Rus- t
sian situation in December of 1919 he f
said: "We not only will not make t
, peace, but we will not compromise
> with the government of the Soviets.
, We have decided that we will be the ^
allies of all peoples attacked by Bol- f
shevism." He at the same time ex- ^
. pressed his confidence in the Anglo- r
. Franco-American agreements and '
. predicted a solution of the Fiume
. problem.
I "The Fiume question has been ago- t
. nizing," he declared. "Italy promised
I'iume to the Jugo-Slavs but went j
' back on her promise. France, Eng.
land and the United States have 1
sought a solution and the latest indi- j
I cations are that it will be reached. .
' Only when, this is accomplished can
we begin to breathe freely." j
t Clemenceau's address at Strasburg
, in November of 1919, referred to at
, the time as "his political valedictory
I to France," was a remarkable plea for
, universal tolerance and social justice.
> Among its most striking passages
were:
"The world's only salvation from
the social and economic chaos from j
which it is now emerging is work."
"Government must be based upon
public order and the respect of indi- r
vidual rights."
"Let us all work for the grandeour
and glory of France. Let us all stand r
r.rtn and united for the welfare of
mankind." r

Married Women Fight to
Retain Positions as Teacher;
f
London, Nov, 21.?The flgh f
against married women acting as
school teachers in the public schools \
of England, which has been going c
on for some time, reached a climax ">
when sixty-four married women t
teachers were discharged from their i;
duties in one of the London suburbs.
During the war married women s
were practically the only persons '
available for teaching, and since then A
they have kept their jobs despite th.- *
efforts of many veterans assaciations v
to have them expelled in order to al I
low ex-service men and nurses to re <-1
sume their positions. i
An attempt was made recently to exclude
married women from teaching
in the school* of Middlesex Coun
ty but they Were able to take the e

The (1M is still pending. Efforts
to have the married women
excluded from the sc\ols under th^
jurisdiction of the London County
Council, however* have failed, and the
Council has refaaed to pass a motion
to this effect. i ,

onfident that the estate in oil lands

In tracing the ancestry, Joseph

as descendants of Thomas V.

Mrs. Margaret Jordan of Anlerson,
Lewis Browning of Colum>ia,
Willie Browning ' of Greenville,

Thomas Coker of Greenville coun,
y, Jim Coker of Honea Path, Charlie

Suggs, Bub and Linwood Smith and
en children of Mrs. Joseph Chandler
>f Greenville county.
"Another group declare that the
>nly heirs are descendants of Sirs.
Vlary Lou Browning Edwards, a sis:er
of Thomas V. Browning. ' They
lay Thomas Browning had three
brothers, all died without children,
rhc descendants of Mrs. Edwards are

Vlartha Pike of Greenville county,
who are granddaughters of Mrs.
Vfary Lou Browning Edwards, and
,wo other heirs whose names are uncnown,
one living in Texas and one
tomewhere near Knoxville, Tenn.
"While it seems doubtful if Thomas
/. Browning ever accumulated such
i fortune in Texas, those in closest
ouch with the situation are sure that,
f such an estate ever existed, it ha3

o his descendants."
J. E. Leach of Greenville was on?
if the attorneys who made the trip
o the Lone Star state to make in'estigations
as to the "Browning esate."
In a letter to The News Mr. Leach - ?
ells of some of the difficulties en ountered
and says among other
hings:
"I think in justice to the re'atives

Greenville, it should be said that they 1
jever believed that there was actually
1150,000,000 awaiting distribution,
rhat amount started* in a press dispatch
from Greensboro, N. C., and
rained much headway. But they did *
ict upon certain information which
