Mr. ' D. J. "Grandma", Lumsden
la .85 .today. . And from the vine
coveted home on South Holly, .where
aha Uvea with her daughter-in-law,
Mrs. H. U. Lumsden, ahe greeta the
world with the enthualams and faith
which have brought her an Increase
01 trlend with each year.
Showered with flowers and other
birthday remembrances, the beloved
little -pioneer amllea at 'the date on
the .calendar- and 'her -rapidly ap
proaching centennial. Her blue eyea
whloh have watched men roturn
from several wara, guided knitting
needles and aptnnlng wheel and
lowered before, the sharp gaze of
the r Minnesota Indian, welcome
callers from all aecttons of the
valley. !
i;TMey are not dimmed by glasses
and the teeth which her smile re-
veals and her own.. .. . it.
Seated In a large olialr before her
Window yesterday with an open book
resting In her slender hands, she
reviewed for early callers a few of
the experiences 06 years have
brought. ' .
a "I! think people are about the
same today as they used to be,
she -remarked, refusing to condemn
the' younger generation. "I like to
Mad. I enjoy books more than any
thing. This one Is a birthday pres
ent - from my sister. 1 don't like
silly hooks, but I find there . are
plenty of good ones written."
,;- Questioned as to her opinion of
motion . pictures, ahe anawored: "I
like the movies, But I can't -hoar.
well-since my Illness of last winter,
M I don't go to talkies anymore,
I could hear all right until I was
Ills . .-.mi :. r-v.w
have never driven a car. You
see they weren't stylish when I was
young, but I love to go driving. I've
no desire' to ride In an airplane,
though. It I have to fall I'd rather
fall -from an auto.
f"Oh, yes, I used to ride horses.
X'-lilted on a farm until 1 was mar
ried In '68. I used to go out In the
pasture, catch my horse, bridle and
saddle her and away I would go
over the countryside," a new twinkle
entered her eyes" as she laid her
book on the window sill.
' ("I've lived In many states, in city
and (country, and I .believe I like
city life the beat. Of course, there's.
lota of -fun -on the farm. too.''.
Turning to talk of fashions, when
hoop skirts wore the mode, arnmtma
paused to go upstairs and bring
dawn , some photographs. She took
the steps with the utmost coso ond
returned toon with a daguerreotype.
The' picture ; showed a girl with
beautiful hair,' attired In a velvet
gown, enhanced with full aleeves and
quaint basque waist.. , .. --
"It iwaa. my wedding dress." she
explained, "wlno colored velvot,"
-No review of a sturdy, ' simple life
was given by Grandma oj explana
tion df her good health, "My hus
band, my children, most of my
brothers and slaters have crossed
the . great divide," ahe aald.-. "i: was
the oldest of l'J children, .born ttonr
Dayton, Ohio, In '36. I married D.
Ji Lumsden of Syracuse. N. Y.-, In
US.; We had four children, They
have all gone. "My daughter. Carrie,
and son, H. U. Lumsden were well
known here. My fothor died when
he was 79, my mother when she
was 84. ' ''
M'l- have Just a sister ond ,two
brothers left. My' sister In Los
Angeles la 20 years youngor than
I am."
Mrm Lumsden traveled to Minne
sota with her husband behind a
team of oxen In '60. Her husband,
two. brothers and two brother-in-law
jfought In the Union army
during the Civil war.-' Her husband
also fought In the Indian war and
ahe knitted socks for hat grandson,
Treve Lumsden of this city, when
he went to France.
' She - has lived In Mcdford for 40
years. v "I came heie whon 'the
place was Just mud. mud, mud."
she explained yesterday. "I came
west when the golden spike was
laid, crossing the mountains by
stage.-' .
"I have seen Indians, friendly and
unfriendly, and I was acared to
death of them when I glimpsed
their shadows from undor my aun
bonrtet In Minnesota."
Mrs.'- Lumsden has known many
sorrow, endured many hardships
as the. years went by, taking with
them relatives and friends, but she
ha always continued to make new
one.
Her 'visit with her nephew, O. I.
Hutchison of the Hutchison and
Lumsden store and tnembera of his
staff, are anticipated by many resi
dent of the valley who chance to
meet her there, She hasn't stopped
at the store for a chat since last
January, but hopes to soon again.
Bach day she extends a Jolly greet
ing to her two great grandchildren,
Ann tee and 'Treve Lumsden, Jr.,
and their little friend, who call

By Allc iudson Peale; v;
' Probably no one element In' the
child's environment Influences his
values as much as the conversation
of the grown-ups in the house.
The family dinner table educates
him for better or for 'worse much
more than does the cl&Rsrocm.
If grown-ups talk much of sick
ness, money vorrles, if the news
paper items that cause comment are
chiefly those concerned with crime,
these thins will t?ko a large place
in the child's developing conception
of the world In which he lives.
These will be the things that will
Interest him. the things that he con
siders important and will wont to
know more about. t
Certainly:- awareness o the un
pleasant aspects cf life should have
its place in the child's development,
for' eventually he must take , his
place In the real and not In the
Ideal world. - '
, But he should acquire & balanced
outlook, and this he canrot have If
things vulgar, commonplace, ugly
and unhappy bulk tco lprge in the
body of Ills knowledge.
Since the: world Is full of a num
ber cf things, a great many of which
are highly interesting, delightful and
thought -provoking, it is the business
of the child's home to make him
aware of them.
'Periodicals and magazines, 'several
of Which' come regularly to the typ
ical American'-borne, should repre
sent a variety of interests, with due
consideration for the tastes of tho
different members of the family.
The books that llnd their way Into
the. family living room, through the
discussions they provoke, make a def
inite contribution to the taste of
growing children.
Grown-upa owe it-to thir children
as well asj to themselves, $o be In
terested In and to talk about 'happy,
worthwhile things.
