Reveals Folger Ideal WIDOW OF SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY FOUNDER COMPLETING WORK. BY JAMES WALDO FAWCETT. RS. HENRY CLAY FOLGER.| widow of the donor of the beautiful new Folger Shake- speare Library, on East Capi- | tol street, adjacent to the| Library of Congress, has been in Wash- | ington to supervise the arrangement of | the founder's room in the recently | completed building. ~She came and | went unheralded, and not more than a dozen persons were aware of her visit. | A wcman of keen, active and sympa- thetic mind, Mrs. Folger was her hus- band’s partner in_his study of the life and works of Willlam Shakespeare through nearly five decades. She Knows the vast collection of precious books | and relics which Mr. Folger bequeathed | to the Nation as no other individual | does. Each item in the almcst endless ist has its own place in her memory. | er enthusiasm has not waned: she is. | if anything, even more keenly intercsted in the subect now that the noble edifice so long anticipated by her husband is a material reality. and much of the business of furnishing and equipping it has of necessity passed from his hands | ers I P ermily C. Jordan, daughter of Edward Jordan, solicitor of the Treas- ury Department during the adminis-| tration of Lincoln, Johnson and Grant, | Mrs. Folger descends from old New England stock. She was graduated from Vassar College in 1879, and mar- ried Mr. Folger on October 6, 1885 Her acquaintance with Washington and her faith in the increasing beauty of the city dates back to her girlhcod. “During the World War" she sa my husband and 1 were frequently in the Capital. The plan for the library was already formulated, and Mr. Folger | had decided that it was in Washington, rather than elsewhere, that the library eventually should be built. We used to wa'k about in the city, inspecting possible sites and visioning the edifice as it might be when finished. At dif- ferent times we considered different lo- | cations. Problem of Purchase. «When at last we chose the block on | East Capitol street there was the ‘rob- | lem of purchasing the property. There | were 14 houses in the block, the famous old Grant's Row. Buying them, one by one, was a task which occupied nine | years. In this matter the late John | Catesby Weedon was Mr. Folger's agent. | When finally assembled we had a plot | with a frontage of 331 feet on East Capitol strect and 154 feet on Second and Third streets. Grant's Row was built in 1871, and many celebrated statesmen occupied the houses when they were in their prime. We began clearing the site on Armistice day, 1929, and when the question arcse as to b vhom the first bricks should be removed Mr. Folger said that in consideration of Mr. Weedon's invaluable services the honor should be his. Mr. W cepted the invitation, and that it fell to him to begin t! ticn labor.” Mrs. Folger explained how her hus- band had checked his decision to build the library in Washington with the opinions of other men. “Dr. John Franklin Jameson, chief of the Division of Manuscripts at the Library of Con- gress, was a classmate of Mr. Folger at_ Amherst, graduating with him in 1879. Of course, my husband consulted with his friend. ' Asked the point-blank question, ‘Is Washington the place for the library? Dr. Jameson answered: “Forty years ago I should Iave said “nb. Now U say “yes.”' Bota Mr. Folger and Dr. Jameson had watched the steady growth of the city as a cultural as well as a political capital. Their love for Washington had grown stronger as the city itself grew in beauty and cultural status. New York had been suggested as a location for the new building, but Mr, Folger had felt that New York was destined to be a great commercial city rather than a great educational center. The University of Chicago had offered to provide a build- ing for the collection and Mr. Folger had been vary favorably impressed by the university’s proposal: but at last he declined. It became his conviction | that the library should be his contribu- | tion to tho noble plan for the new | Capital city. Once he decided, he did not waver, Detail by detail the design was worked out. When my husband died the actual construction was well under wi Had he lived to see the completed building I am sure he would have been entirely satisfied. It is his dream come alive.” | Study of Designs. ‘ Mrs. Folgr told how carefully her husband had studied the architect's designs, how painstakingly he had en- deavored to anticipate the needs of the scholars for whom the library was to be built. “The only thing that I can rocall about which we failed to ',hint(v was the matter of & book-plate, she said. “I cannot find any men- tion in my notes of this important subject. We seem to have thought of everything else. And of course there were a good many details we had to onsider. But, then, we had 50 years together, gathering our collection” and | planning for its final arrang>ment. We worked together consistently all that time. Perhaps our Shakespeare part-| nership was like that of Charles and Mary Lamb, who were brother Bnd‘ sister, or of Charles and Mary Cowden Clarke, who were husband and wife. | Horace Howard and Helen Kate Fur- ness used to say that we were carrying on the tradition as they themselves were, working together."” | Mrs. Folger was asked about the cos- | monpolitan_significance of Shakespeare “Well,” she said in reply, “we always have felt that Shakespeare was for the world, not just for England. Americans | have always loved him, and many of | _{our people have helped to spread his Part of our idealism comes from | his writings. He is part of us.” | Throughout Mr. Folger’s lengthy | quest for Shakespeare material his wife | was his unfaltering aidc_and associate. | Book sellers throughout Europe, as well | as all the more important dealers in | the United States, sent their catalogs | and lists to Mr. Folger as a matter of routine. It was Mrs. Folger's responsi- bility to check in these publications all the items which she thought would be of interest. She read literally thousands of such pamphlets, and when oppor- tunity offered Mr. Folger would go over with her the selections she had sug- gested. She kept a card file of both books provosed for purchase and books actually bought. and this file, main- tained with scrupulous care through the vears, is being used by William A Slade, librarian of the Folger Shake- speare_Foundation, in the making of the official catalogue of the collection Mr. Slade pays grateful tribute to MTs.

A chest once the property of Anne Hathaway and a number of very rare musical instruments of Elizabethan date will be among the things eventu- ally to be displayed in the great north hall of the new library building. Mrs. Folger said: “These relics will help to enable us to catch the spirit of Shakespeare’s time. We have al- ways thought of the library as being like a book with illustrations. Of course, the relics will serve that pu pose; they will illustrate the poet's text, The Shakespeare theater in the east portion of the library was intended to indicate the physical environment of the original production of the bard's dramatic works. Dr. Joseph Quincy Adams, research director of the library, has said of this novel feature of the building: “It is the only place in the world where the playhouse which Shakespeare knew and used is repro- duced to scale” In discussing the theater, Mrs. Folger paid homage to the architects, Paul P. Cret and Alex- ander B. Trowbridge. In her opinion, “They demonstrated the highest genius. “they demonstrated that highest genius. Elizabethan stage.” Theater Not Commercial. The theater will not be operated | commercially. Its purpose somewhat paralleds that of the Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge Auditorium for chamber music | in the Library of Congress. Occasional dramatic programs will be arranged, but there will be no repertory company of players. The theater will be used for lectures, also. Mrs. Folger expressed the hope that the formal dedicaticn of the library may be arranged for Shakespeare’s birthday. April 23, 1932. Meantime, she said, the work of preparing the collec- tion' for_exhibition is proceeding.

Cardinal O'Connell, who is chairman of the board of the Catholic University here, in his message to the Red Cross, “7 cannot permit the fiftieth anni- verary of the American National Red Cross to pass without a word of hearty congratulations and commendation. A half centwsy of unselfish service to hu- manity, a8 the agency of mercy and re- lief, is a glorious record which deserves the unbounded gratitude of all men of al ™ classes. Bishop Scarlett stated: “Half a century ago the American Red was born. In it the spirit and deeds of the good Samaritan have been multiplied into a far-flung organi- zation, able to cope collectively and ef~ fectively with disaster on a major scale, rescuing those left broken and bieed- ing by the wayside, biniing up the- wounds, feeding the hungry. restoring hope, establishing order and sanity.” Rabbi Simon indorsed the roll call- as follows: “The annual roll call for the Ameri- can Red Cross is a challenge to every man, woman and child in our country, Enrollment is the very least measure of appreciation which we can show for this big brother of humanity. Its mem- bership ought to equal our population. ‘The goal of the roll call will be reached when the annual call will be welcomed as a national feast of appreciation.
