(speciaI to The BulIetin)

Especial to The Bulletin) | Washington, D. c. Oct. 16.-The searching pathos of conditions in a
 small corner of what might be termed l Unknown America is mirrored in a
 communication received by the Ma
 tional Geographic Magazine from Miss
 Ethel De Long, of the executive com
 mittee of the Pine Mountain Settle
 ment School, Pine Mountain, Harlan Co.,, Kentucky. Striking indeed is this
 picture given by the correspondent in
 her simple yet supremely sympa- thetic recital of the paternal yearning | of a white Kentucky mountaineer to obtain educational advantages for his motherless brood of seven.
 l A man just walked in from Big l Creek, thirty miles away, to try to | enter all of his seven children in our school. He would not leave only the older ones because as he said, If 1 part 'em while they're leetle fellers, they won't have no feelin's fer each other when they're raised. I want ye to take lem all or none. Hit was their mammy's last wish that I keep 'em together. I'll jest do fer ern myself the best I kin,tf you caint take 'em all"
 He brought with him an irresistible appeal, word picture of the seven and his tale of how he has ''keered" for them. Thirty four years old, worn stopped, toothless, he has made a gal lant fight to raise his children right. He mentioned the children's clothes. I've made 'em all,'' he said. T couldn't hire nobody to sew fer 'em, so I jest made 'em everything they wear, myself. I've washed fer 'em, I've tended 'em, an then I've gone out in the cornfield to work fer 'em. I've raised 'em as right as I know, but I cain't do fer 'em lak I ought.
 T get right sick with the phthisic an I've studied about what would happen to 'em if was to be tux from 'em. When I have to go away from 'em to earn a leetle money, hits sech a dread on me, les they git burned up at night, s'posin' the house should ketch fire, an leetle fellers a1lus so sleepy headed at layin down time. Sometimes I'm afeared to go home" asked, "so as to get help in raising your children?"
 Tears came into his eyes. Hits best for leetle younguns to hey jest one mammy, an s'posin I'd thought to help 'em a-marryin' again, I might got 'em in mighty bad state.'
 "If we take the children, are you going to marry again?" said l.
 "No'm, I'm done with marvin. I jest want my younguns raised right, whilst I'm a trytn' to make money fer 'em"
 whose parents want to get rid of them,' said "but ones whose parents want them to have a good chance"
 "Yes," he said, T know, That's the reason want 'em here. You want younguns whose parents has got dili- gence and with innards to raise 'em toward humanity. Yes. I'll pay yc all can make fer 'em, eff yell jes raise 'em right. I've raised 'em to work pu~ werirad r,nysAlf hAr',, wl,A-

FUND RAISED FOR
 RETENTION OF BASE
Many Thousands Will be Expended by
 Government at the Navy Yard.

The fund for the retention of the submarine base through the leasing and closing of the Shay fertilizer plant has reached a total of 16,145. This gratifying result is due to the public spirit of New London citizens, supple mented by most energetic efforts on the part of the committee directly in charge of the campaign. Early in the week the fund approximated the nec- essary $16,O00 and the members of the committee felt justified in going ahead with arrangements for eliminating the rendering establishment. They per sonally guaranteed the needed balance until additional expected subscriptions came in.
 The campaign is now at an end and once again New London has given evil dence of that new spirit of progress which will undoubtedly bring about important developments here in the next few years. Not only is the sub- marine base to stay but many thous- ands of dollars are to be expended by the government for enlarging the plant
