Al bert Woolson quit worrying when he was a "youngster" of 50 and has felt fine ever since. He's 102 iw. He was feeling "chipper" enough Saturday to start "getting set" for the last encampment of the Grand Army of. the Republic at Indianapolis Aug. 28. Only six of the surviving 17 boys in Blue will attend the meeting, the last one to be held. Never Worries Woolson said he hasn't done a lick of worrying since his half century mark. He smokes one cigar a day. His eyes are good enough though he wears glasses. His conversa tion is sharp and his memory astounding. His rudy face has few wrinkles and he gets about snap pily. However, he is almost deaf. Woolson recalled that he was IS years old when he saw two famous men sail into each other on a debating platform. "I saw a. tall man with a tall stovepipe hat," he says, "and my father told me that was Abra ham Lincoln. The other man was Douglas." Woolson was born in New York state but came to Minnesota in the early 1860s. He volunteered with the First Minnesota Heavy Artillery m 1863 and later be came a drum major, serving in the Georgia campaign. He has been married twice. He reared two boys and three girls by his first wife and three girls by his second, who is still living. One of his sons, Charles, a Day ton. Wash., .druggist, will accom pany him on the train to Indian apolis. The old soldier gets up every day at 6 a.m., reads the papers, writes numerous letters and spends considerable time going over his memoirs. He likes to talk and visit neighbors. ' Every year on his birthday, Feb. 11, the day before Lincoln's, chil dren from near-by Nettleton School parade to his home and place an American flag in the front yard. His advice to humanity is curi ously reminiscent of Lincoln's own sentiment Woolson tells the grownups. And Woolson tells the grownus. And to the children he adds: Stay close to your mother's teachings, and always trust in God. Sen. Cain Hits At CVAArticle WASHINGTON OP) Washing ton's Republican Senator Cain told the Senate that a Walla Walla attorney, who wrote an article favoring a Columbia Val ley Administration, had been "i $50 a day boy" for the Interior Department. The 'attorney, Charles Luce, promptly agreed that it was true, and asked what was wrong with that. ' . . Put In Record Luce's . article was inserted In iie congressional record by a6hington's Democratic Senator agnuson, who favors a CVA - agnuson described Luce ai a .ominent attorney. Then Cain, who opposes a CVA, )id fellow-senators Saturday that iiey should know of Luce s con lection with the interior- depart- .nent in evaluating his CVA stand. Contacted at The Dalles, Ore, Luce said it was no secret, that he had been employed to prepare testimony for CVA hearings at "the usual basis $50 a day." "If the government wants to hire me for organizing a hearing, I expect to charge them some thing," he said. "So far as I know, Mr. Cain is not working for noth ing." Wrote for Paper As tar as the articls Is con cerned. Luce said he wrote it for the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin in reply to an earlier article which had opposed a CVA. Both the pro and con articles were inserted in the congressional record, he added. The attorney also commented ! that his work for the government done during May and June was carried out at a financial sac rifice.
