towards paying for free text books

A country boy who had secured work
at the Homestead mill and returned home /
is quoted as follows: at is not so much |
the fear of bodily harm from the strikers
as the sort of work. None of of our crowd
ever worked in an iron mill before and
while the work was not hard or the hours
long, we could not stand the heat. If one
would stay until he got used to it he would
be all right"

Until the woods and mountains ring,
anu all Win one accord agree
That It's gay Smith family.

The Crawford family, many of whom
live in the north h-eastearn part of this
county, held their first reunion in q
grove near Emlenton, last week.
Some four hundred members Of the fam

great success that it was decided to hold
one annually.
The family is a remarkable one in some
respects. They are plain, common-sense
people, mostly farmers and mechanics,
and not one of them has ever been
charged with criminal offence.
