A CORN-CUTTING RECORD.

A "Boy' Over in Bates Wears the Belt.
Said our old friend, Mr.. Lucien
Green, while in the office a few min
uies Monday:
"We have boy over in our part
of the country that is clearly entitled
to the belt over everybody"
Our curiosity, of course, was great
ly aroused and we quickly asked, is
that so, who is it?
''Uncle Bill Prier, sir, who will
soon be 80 years old. His son, AL,
was taken sick and it being practical
ly impossible to get outside help at
the time, Uncle Bill just whetted up
the old corn knife, went into the field
and now has 200 shocks to his credit.
If that isn't a record for an old boy
like him don't know what is and |
think he should have his picture in
the paper and given good, big
write-up," said Mr.. Green, and the
Journal heartily agrees with him.
We distinctly remember that even in
this mild Italian climate it was dis
tressingly hot at corn-cutting time
and that it required a whole lot of
courage to tackle a field of corn.
But, nevertheless, Uncle Bill long
ago demonstrated the fact that he is
not afraid of anything. Appleton
