Earl Jenkins Great Grand
father Served 81 Years
in British Army

Dear EdltOr: ...,.
I thought would write to you about
my great grandfather. His name was
Thomas Brant.
He was an Englishman and a soldier.
He served twenty-one years in the
British army. During the latter part of
his long term he went through the war
Of the Crimea
Afterwards his was one of the regi-
ments that was ordered to India, SO
he was. in India. throughout the Sepoy
rebellion.
Soon after he returned to England he
was honorably. discharged. He then
brought him family to the United
States.
He had a wife and five children. Two
Of these children were a pair of twin
girls. One of these girls afterwards be-
came my grandmother.
They settled on a farm in Essix
county, New York not far from Lake
Champlain. He lived there until the
summer of 1870 when he was drown
ed in the lake.
He had been to Montreal. On his re-
turn trip he fell or was knocked from
the deck, of the steamboat after the
boat had come up to the dock.
His oldest son, my mothers uncle,
| John Brant, went to the steamboat
landing to meet him. When he could not
find grandfather he asked the captain
who was an old family friend. If he
had seen him. The captain said why
/ was talking to him as we came up to
| the dock. .. .
They looked for him some more, and
made some inquiries. Then thye began
,, to suspect that ne had fallen into the
| water. t
They notified the authorities who
| sent men with graphing irons to drag
| the waters of the dock. After several
hours work they found the body.
Grandfather was an expert swimmer
| and had In his time won many swim
, ming prizes. The family has always
| thought that somehow, he was uncon-
scious when he fell into the water.
There was q bruise On his face when
/ the body was recovered.
1t was probably an accident, one that
will never be explained. His money
and watch were still in his pocket.
His body now Hes in Evergreen
cemetery, beside my great grandmother
in Salem, New York. ,. ".~
| Grandfather used to tell some very
interesting stories about India-stories
Of dancing dervishes m Indian jug
glers and snake charmers, and the
strange things he saw them do.
One story of a Hindoo fakir I fear
you. would not believe II I told you.
When Uncle John was four years old
grandfather fought him to swim. After
he was grown up he became as noted
a swimmer as grandfather himself.
Uncle John served in the civil war and
once swan with his clothes tied in a
bundle on his back two miles to see q
wounded comrade.
My father takes the Daily Courier.

A Real Old Lady Who Is
Poor and Needy
Dear :IuniorS:

Dear Juniors:
This is my third letter to the Courier
Junior. I am going to write about a
real old lady who is very poor and
needy. =
One day I was in her house and !
saw how badly her house needed a root
on it, 50 I came home and told my
mamma. I was going to start a paper
so that next day after school I started
out and one good kind gentleman in
our town started nj with one dollar
and one with fifty cents, until I got
about seven dollars and a half to help
buy rubber roofing to put on that poor
old lady's house. Now I feel a whole
lot better to think that she is in the
dry and can sleep good.
I tell you Dear Juniors I would feel
verv badly to think my mother had to
have the rain come down on her bed
like that poor old lady. l think all lit
tie folks ought to be good to all old
people for If we live to be old we may
sometime need help.

Ralph Harris Tells About a
Rabbit Hunt

Dear Juniors: I will tell you about
a rabbit hunt. The other day took
dog and went out into a cornf1eld.
I did not go far until I saw a rabbit.
I did not catch it, but soon saw an
other one, but did not catch it either.
Then I saw another one. The dog
ran after it a little while and soon
caught it.
l looked around a little while longer
and did not see any more and then l
went home. -. ... =
I did not go hunting any more for
a few days.

BreadMa ker
Chapter I'D

When It was done the five loavel
brown, such q high. rounded shape
so satisfying in every way, that Dor
othy forgot her misery and sQuealet
| with delight. Mrs. Dent looked Al
her pupil and at the bread with un
disguised satisfaction.
I'm a good teacher, II I do say it.
And then Mrs. Dent made Dorothy
repeat her bread-making lesson
twice more.
Nov, child, I'll give you three OF
these loaves to take home, and you
must bake again, this week at your
house and bring me a loaf"
Dorothy promised eagerly and de-
parted with her light bread and light
er heart.
The gloom that had settled down
on Mrs. Douglass's face when the
curious cuttings Of bread had been
brought to her gave way to an ex'
preston of active horror when she
saw the fresh, light bread Dorothy
brought.
Dorothy! Have you been borrow
ing?"
Nm. I made it."
you made lt?"'
"Yes'm," her face aglow with ex.
element. Such triumphs come to
few.
you made it, Dorothy, you. a mere
baby?'
g" did, mamma, truly. Mrs. Dent
showed me how"
well Mrs. Dent Is we'll able to
show you. None knows how any bet
ter. Dorothy solemnly, II shall GER
tainly get we'll very o l feel 1t.
This puts new life into me-
81 hope you won't tell your ma
you've been borrowing bread, Dor
othy," said her father, uneasily, at
supper, as he promptly helped him
self to bread, and the boys in a great
hurry cleared the rest Of the plate,
believing it to be their only chance.
II didn't borrow It."
"Neighbors send it in"
mo, sir"
Mr.. Douglas and the boys looked at
her to explain the riddle.
81 made It,"
"Dorothy!"
II did, papa!" s
And then there was some praising
done that made up for everything.
Dorothy kept her promise, made a
new batch of bread fully as good as
the first, and carried two loaves to
Mrs. Dent. That good lady made no
effort to conceal her pride. Il GER
tainly am a good teacher"
Dorothy felt as though she could
be a good teacher herself, and the
idea of making enough bread twice
a week for that b~read-eating family
appalled, her; so she took Gretchen
in hand and, following Mrs. Dents
methods as closely as possible, sue
ceeded in teaching Gretchen to make
bread that satisfied everybody. there
by winning Gretchen's geverlastin
gratitude as well.
Eyes, I'll be down soon: I feel it,"
said Mrs. Douglass. And I'll. be
right glad to have some one else
make the bread for a spell, too.
always said Dorothy would make a
good cook If I lust let her alone"

lowed my palms. and Sweetheart
drank daintily out Of that cup as a
bird drinks at a fountains edge.
Then we went down, shouting aloud
to awake the mountain echoes. The
great things Of the world are quiet.
But we did not want to be great, only
to be happy. So we climbed back
again into the road. with its dne dust
drenched and laid with the dow. l
At the turn Of the road, on a little
patch of grass, a tramp family had en-
camped. There was a father, q moth
er, with a young baby that walled up
on her breast. and a little girl, who
rose and ran toward Sweetheart.
I'VE are awfu' hungry" she said.
I'VE have had nothing to eat since
yesterday morning"
THE shops are not open," said
Sweetheart, rising to the occasion.
"But come with me, and III steal you
something out OF the pantry. Father
won't tell"
This shows how badly Sweetheart
has been brought up and how little she
thinks Of a parents honesty.
So the ragged little girl trotted along
after us. Sweetheart looking over her
shoulder every now and then, with a
reassuring air, as much Is to say:
Hes all right! He looks very impos-
ing; but, bless you, it's all put on!",
In this manner we came to the
house Of our Judgment. The door was
as we had left it. Not a soul stirred
within. This was strange. 1t seemed
the middle Of the forenoon to us.
Sweetheart entered, and after a while
emerged with the ham bone, knuckly
indeed. but in spots capable Of repay
ing attention. To this was added half
a loaf, a large pat Of butter, and an
unopened tin Of caviare - all the
n~ecessaries and luxuries of life.
Nov can I give the little girl my
Saturdays money? Let me, father!"
she pleaded.
And whatever was thought by the
recording angel of "Bonny Dundee"
considered as a morning hymn, there
can be no doubt Of his opinion Of this
act Of worship; for Sweetheart had
cast into the treasury all that she had.
But, as she watched the small tramp
rush off, with the ham bone and the
loaf pressed against her breast and the
sixpence of sterling silver clutched In
her palm, Sweetheart heaved a long
sigh.
"And I did so want a new dolly's
bonnet for Isabel" she said.

BLACK WALNUTS ARE
PLENTIFUL IN low

Ames. Oct. 28.-Iowa has more black
walnut plantations than any other
state in the union, according to statis-
tics collected by the forestry depart
ment at Iowa State college.
The early walnut planters had three
principal objects in view, the forma-
tiop of shelter belt for the home
building, the production Of fence posts
for lumber and the growing OF nuts
for food Although at the present time
most Of the planted walnut timber Is
not large enough to bring the best re-
turns for lumber. these plantations
will bring high price in a few years.
There is now a heavy demand for
walnut timber which is large enough
to saw. Walnut manufacturers are
buying logs from all parts Of the state
where they can get enough In one
place 10 make up a carload. large
part of this timber is being made into
gun stocks for use in the European
war
