vent water from standing in puddles

father, mother and twelve children
by the name of Damn, came di-
rect from Holland to Oskaloosa, en-
route to Pella. Not a member of
the family could speak a word of
English and they were dressed in
Holland costume. They were not
subjects of charity but had little else
than their passage paid to Pella.
They came here to be American cit |

this country's prosperity. After a

this Gods land of plenty for him
who works.
