Unto the Jaws Of Death (dramatic)
It seems strange how little respect aud
honor is paid to the fremen in America
in comparison with their heroic work
We seem to look upon them as a body
of men that are merely hired 10 put out
flames True they are but what small
amount of pay they receive for riskng
their lives almost every week, perhaps
every day. Theirs is a work OF heroism,
bravery and OF self-forgetfulness TO save
the lives Of Others, and what little recog-
milton Of their heroism this Edison plc.
ture may bring to them is slight indeed
to what the world at large
owes them as a body OF heroic workers
It's at the Dreamland.
After reading an item in The Times
describing a half dollar struck off in
1914 and owned at present by John
Young of Malletts Bay, I w. Farnham
of Camp street examined a number of
old coins in his possession, and found
that he had two half dollars of the
description, only of earlier date, One
of the coins was issued in 1912. while
the other was struck off in 1913. One
side of the pieces shows the head of
Liberty with seven stars 10 the right
and six to the right. while underneath
is the date. On the reverse is the eagle
with outstretched wings and the scroll
the motto, 'E Pluribus
Unum" Stamped legibly on the thin
edge of each coin is the inscription, "half
dollar or fifty cents Both pieces are
well preserved Mr., Farnham also has
a collection of Spanish pieces of early
date beginning with the Spanish min
dollar down to the smallest Spanish
piece, known in America as the four
pence.
The hospitality social held in the
Yestry of the Uniyersalist church last
