the story 01 tne iamous pianist, Paderewski, andhis response to the fellow who asked him how to
get to Carnegie Hall-----------
?Practice, practice, practice.?
Mauffray remembers a great deal in addition to things pertaining to hardware; he remembers some of the history of Bay St Louis.
He recalls the days when famous visitors came here, like Chief Red Fox of the Sioux tribe, with whom he shared a stage in 1918, or China?s first Catholic Cardinal, Cardinal Tien of the Society of the Divine Word, for
whom he served in an honor during a visit to St. Augustine Seminary.
Bom and raised in the house which is now the Landmark Restaurant, Mauffray got an early exposure to community affairs when, at age 15 1/2, he was selected by the city fathers
He also served in the Merchant Marine, which was one of the two times he visited Europe. Mauffray?s other visit to Europe was when he was selected as a voting delegate to Rotary International in 1953.
He has traveled elsewhere, with his favorite destinations including several world?s fairs and the 1932 Rose Bowl, where among those he saw playing were two local men on Tulane University?s team, John A. ?Baby Grand? Scafidi and Harry ?Wop? Glover.
No matter where he and his wife go, Mauffray always calls Bay St. Louis home. For many years after leaving the Landmark house following his marriage at age 26, Mauffray and his wife moved to a home on-Citizen Street. They now reside on North Beach Boulevard.
