He read : Dear Sir: We have for acknowledgment your letter of the 16th inst., requesting that we furnish you with a confidential report on Mr. Elmer Butterworth Clarke of this city. Mr. Elmer B.' Clarke is well and intimately known to us and has been for the past fifteen years. The Great Register of Voters of this county informs us that Mr. Clarke is a Republican and that he was born October 10, 1S98, In Selina, Fresno county, this state. He is the only child of the late Prcf. James J. Clarke and the late Mabel Butterworth Clarke. Trofessor Clarke was a graduate of the University of California and was very eminent in the field of parasitology. Ills research work contributed much information of tremendous value to the fruit growers of this state. He peiished of a fever contracted while in Brazil studying the life and habits of a pest known as the Brazilian fly which had succeeded in invading the territory of Hawaii. His wife died of pneumonia as a sequel to influenza contracted during the epidemic of 1918-1She was a woman of great intelligence, probity and force of character and, like her husband, was held in the highest esteem here. We enclose herewith a photograph . of Elmer Butterworth Clarke, which we succeeded in securing from a local photographer at a cost of $1.50, for which we would tye pleased to have your remittance. Elmer Clarke was twelve years old when his father died. As is the case with most professors and particularly those in federal employ. Professor Clarkes salary was never commensurate with his ability. Also, he was careless In the matter of providing life insurance for his dependents, with the result that the care rif his widow fell immediately upon Elmer. At twelve years of age, therefore, Elmer Clarke played his last game of ball and became the sole and efficient support of his mother a burden lightened somewhat by reason of the fact that Professor Clarke had left his widow a comfortable bungalow on a lot of 100 feet frontage, on C street of this city. Elmer Clarke graduated from the Union high school here at the age of sixteen and was No. 1 on the honor lie immediately list of. ten pupils. went to work in a local fruit cannery, where the remuneration of employees is regulated by their industry. When the canning season closed he had three hundred dollars in the saving department. of this bank. The following season he bought fruit, on commission, for various packing houses and proved himself an uncanny judge of fruit values and crop tonnage. However, realizing the drawbacks of a seasonal occupation and faced with the necessity of insuring the care of his mother, he learned telegraphy in his spare moments and secured a position as assistant station agent in the local office of the Southern Pacific railroad. He had just been promoted to station agent at the outbreak of the World war. He enlisted at once and served with the Rainbow division as a radio, sergeant, until October of 1918, when he was commissioned a second lieutenant. He was wounded twice and slightly gassed. For the three years following his discharge from the service, Mr. Clarkes health, due to his wounds and the 'gassing already referred to, was too precarious to permit of his acceptance of his old position as station agent at Pilarcitos. He therefore accepted a position of less responsibility and lighter duties as assistant to the proprietor of a local billiard and pool hall, with a cigar stand in connection with same. He has gradually recovered his health, and the last time the writer spoke to him on this subject, he stated that he was now as well as he had ever been. Mr. Clarke is a very ambitious young man, never satisfied with what he has, always scheming for something better. He is well and very favorably known in this city.

Nature Both Kind and Unkind to Great Poet Alexander Pope, the author of The Rape of the Lock and An Essay on Man, was the son of a London tradesman, and was born in 1688. Sickly at birth, he remained sickly; it was only by the greatest care that life was kept in his frail body. When he reached manhood, he was withered and small, being but four feet tall ; he was a remarkable scholar, surpassing, perhaps, anyone of his time. His greatest works were those mentioned above; also his translations of the Iliad and Odyssey have been held in high esteem. His poetry was roughly handled by the .London critics. But, for all his Insignificant appearance, he was a bitter fighter, and lashed out with tongue and pen in a way that caused all but the most hardy to shun him. From Popular Biography.
