PEOPLE NAMED SMITH

by Janet Spencer The word “smith” comes from the Saxon word which means “to smite.” A smith was anyone who worked with a hammer, whether he was hammering wood, metal, or stone. Thus there were blacksmiths, clocksmiths, coppersmiths, goldsmiths, gunsmiths, locksmiths, silversmiths, arrowsmiths, and so on. And since all these smiths needed a hammer, there were also hammersmiths. Come along with Tidbits as we admire people named Smith! SMITH FACTS

SMITH ORGANIZATIONS • In 1969 the Jim Smith Society was formed. You have to be named Jim Smith to be a member. • In the 1930s an organization called The Benevolent and Protective and Completely Universal Order of Fred Smiths of America had a convention in New York City, to which only people named Fred Smith were invited. A man named Smith Frederick sought admission but was only allowed to attend if he walked backwards and ate dinner with his back to the table. • In 1942 the National Society to Discourage Use of the Name Smith for Purposes of Hypothetical Illustration [TNSDUNSPHI] was formed at the University of Minnesota. The organization was formed by Glenn Smith, who was a student under Dale Yoder. During class, Yoder called every hypothetical character in his lectures “James Smith.” Glenn Smith took exception to this and dreamed up TNSDUNSPHI. He had letterhead made up and the printer, who was also named Smith, printed them up at a special rate in exchange for being named chairman of the board. Lowell Smith, a radio newscaster, drummed up publicity. The newspapers picked it up and the organization was on its way. Hundreds of people signed up. The motto was, “A guy named Smith / Must be reckoned with.” Members were required to carry their cards with them at all times and give them to anyone who used the name Smith for hypothetical illustration. Their battle cry was, “When you think of Smith, say John Doe!” • Mary Pickford’s real name was Gladys Smith, and her father’s name was John Smith. She once said, “I remember as a tiny girl hearing him say that he would never risk being arrested, for if the judge asked him his name and he replied, ‘John Smith’ he would surely be held in contempt of court.” (cont’d)

MEMORABLE SPEECHES Charles Emory Smith was Postmaster General under Presidents McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt. He was scheduled to be the speaker at a dinner where important politics were to be discussed. When he arrived at the dinner, he was so drunk that when his name was called to present his speech, he was unable to arise from his chair. After a pause, the meeting continued without him. The following day, the newspaper reported, “Charles Emory Smith was called upon to speak and his remarks will be found on the following page.” The next page of the paper was totally blank, except for a small line at the bottom which said, “What else could he say?” Some time later Charles Emory Smith was a speaker at another dinner where he was expounding on the problems of having such a common name. He said, “Sometimes I find myself wishing that I had lived in the time of Moses. It is written quite clearly in the Bible, I Samuel 13:19: ‘Now there was no smith found throughout all the land of Israel.’ It must have been a happy land.” IT’S A FACT The Bible mentions Smiths, saying in 2 Kings, Chapter 24, that when Nebuchadnezzar took Jerusalem he carried away as captives “all the princes, all the mighty men of valor, and all the craftsmen and the Smiths.” QUICK BITS ABOUT SMITHS Smithite is a mineral named for G.F.H. Smith, an English scientist. Smithsonite is a mineral named for James Smithson. Ornithologist John James Audubon named the Smith’s longspur, a songbird of the tundra, for his friend Gideon Smith.
