A CARNEGIE LIBRARY FOR FRANKLl.l

It looks now as if Franklin will
secure a $500 Carnegie library.
The town board at their last meet
ing agreed to stand for $500 each
year for the upkeep Of it, provided
a lot can be secured to put the build
ing on. and it is thought that the
trustees Of the Methodist church
will have enough pride and public
spirit to donate a lot for that purpose
just opposite the Presbyterian
church on Lyle St. Sevt raj ladies OF
the town deserve credit for hard
work they have done to get this

THE OLD CAMP GROUND

Dear Editor-After spending a
month in old jackson the home of
my boyhood days makes me wond-
er what she will be in the next
forty years, forty years ago my
father moved from South Carolina
to the Love farm and took up camps
in the bend of old SCOTS Creek
near where the tannery now is
and it sure was like camping for
there was nothing there save one
room log hut and twelve in family
with the chimney only up to the
mantle so you see it was nothing
more than camping place for US
but we camped there for two years
and did well m the old camp ground.
Now as years has passed into his
tory, we see the wonderful change
in the old camp ground, now in
place of the log hut or twelve little
ragged scutters smoked so black
you hardly could tell us from in
dians, now stands the booming
town of Sylvia with it's beautiful
temple of justice and its nice school
) buildings and great tannery, hotels,
banks, churches, stores, mills. Fair
grounds, lawyers and doctors
. and to say nothing short ofa nice
3 little city with her paved streets
e and a good county paper to boom
' her up and more than | can tell OF
t write is all oD the cid camp grounG
Then should I not wonder Wha
6 will be in the mex forty years. I
ell but could view the old camI
, ground then what would I see
e, more than I can think of now but
e shall not see it, for those that wer'
'e there then of my age now is pas

is nearly forgotten. We should kee

retiring to them so many times for
prayer; and how he roamed up and
down the beloved hills of Judea
and after all was cruelty put to-
death on dark Calvary's rugged
height.
At twelve o'clock the good
women spread upon the rock a

there were fifty three that gather

GOOD FOR NATIONS HEALTH
Beneficial Results From Early Entry
of Spring Vegetables into the
Markets Of the Country.

One of the marvels of modern life is
the early date when spring fruits and
vegetables appear In the markets
Seven years ago they almost always
went North in a wilted condition. With
modern facilities these products or
southern ATTITUDES appear in northern
towns in marvelously fresh condition.
For the great majority of people pre-
maturely early food products are an
impossible luxury. But the growing
wealth OF the country is signitied by
the number of people who today feel
that they can afford to buy these early
garden products For people of means
1t is healthful way OF spending
money, which otherwise might go into
highly seasoned cooking and stimuli
lants.
Also the cost Of these early products
has not increased as much as one
would expect They are raised In so
much larger quantities that compei-
ton keeps prices somewhere within
reason Regular markets have been
established and transportation costs
are greatly reduced through volume
OF traffic.-South Bend NewsTimes.
