Mr.. Joseph Andrews.
Dear Friend-I have been very
much interested in your sketches
of early days in old Spring
Valley and wish some one would
do as much for every township
in the county; as l came here in
1875 l cannot throw much light
on the very early days of Swan
Lake. l have delayed answer.

early Supt's compete by con-
su|ting the records.
am quite sure that S. F. An
drews served a short term as
Co. Supt in 1877 and 1 think it
was a part of Judson's term but
could find no record of it in the
brief time l could spend this
morning. l will look it up fur
ther at my first opportunity and
try and find the record of the
time Mr.. Andrews served.
Should be very glad to aid you
in any way 1 can. If there is
any thing that 1 can do let me
know. The county commission
ers record in early days was
rather incomplete but it should
tell when the old Jail was built
and | can look it up if you do
not get it elsewhere.

00opOS OF Courage.
Ralph Waldo Trine stated his belief
thus in Harper's Bazar:
ITO get up each morning deter
mined to be happy, determined to be
master Of the events Of the day in
stead Of being mastered by them; to
take anew this attitude Of mind when
the doleful thought presents itself or
the bogy-man attempts to show his
face; to look always on the bright
side Of things, determined to stand al
ways In the sunshine rather than in
the shadow-this it is that makes
life with its daily round and its
knotty problems continually easter.
This hopeful, optimistic. courage-al-
ways-up attitude of mind and heart
10 to set into operation subtle, silent
forces that are continually working
along the lines we are going and that
opens the way for us to arrive"
