Ase all know, he later moved to In- @ame and then went into Ilinois. Dlinois in an Indian word meaning “the Jom’ of full-grown men.” and it was in this land that Linooln lived for 6o many years and grew 10 be the fine, strong, sympathetic man that he was, We are ail familiar with the story of his years of poverty and struggle for life and an education, of his development as a lawyer and member of the Ilinots Legislature and later of Congress, and of his greatness as President of the United States and his fight for the freedom of the slaves and of his tragic death by an assassin, What we do not ali gf us remember is his love for children. LAncoin's own little boys were the life of the White House while their father was President, and Lincoln allowed them great freedom. They always knew that they would find a safe refuge in their father’s office, and that he would Maten with sympathy and understanding to their troubles, or laugh at their antics. And not only was Lincoln fond of his own little boys, but he was always interested in any kiddies that he met and was eager f& help them if he could. When people came to see him and ask for favors the women with the babies in their arms were the first to receive consideration, and he @lways took the time to play with the bobtes. So we sée that the President whom we ail regard as being so wise and < @teong and noble and busy with the gravest cares of a Nation always had @ place in hig heart for the children, and they in turn loved and ‘honored him, as they do to this day.
