MASON COUNTY
IS NOT YET half
way To ITS QUOTA
Mason County Asked to Contribute
$500 to Illiteracy Fund and Has
Yet Only Paid $2O5.8O.

The Kentucky 1lliteracy Commits
sion, now on its last lap before the
census taker begins his work in 1920,
is making gigantic effort to reach
and teach Kentuckys remaining 100,-
600 illiterates.
The Legislature has provided funds
for the office at Frankfort sufficient
for an effective illiteracy campaign
this year.
The county school teachers In every
county are volunteering in large num-
bers to do the teaching without COM
pensation--in many counties 100 per
cent. have given their services. Dur
| ing the Teachers Institute, recently
held in this city, all the Mason county
teachers except three volunteered to
! teach the illiterates in their districts.
Furnished with the names of the
illiterates listed in the 1920 census,
the County Illiteracy Agents will trav-
ell over the counties seeking out these
illiterates and all others who may
since 1910 without learning to read
and write, and induce them to attend
school, but when these people come
to school there will be no books I'M
less philosophical Kentuckians who
have pride in their State and a sense
of responsibility for conditions that
obtain therein will provide them.
The Chairman Of the Kentucky Ill
iteracy C. mmission went before the
Kentucky Federation of Women's
Clubs at its Annual Convention in
June and asked the Federation to as
sumo the task of spreading abroad
knowledge of this need and of secur-
ing contributions to a book fund of
$20,0OG.
The Federation accepted the task
and Miss Alice Lloyd of this city was
made Campaign Chairman. Mason
County is asked to contribute $500 No
systematic campaign has been put on
in this county. but as opportunity Of
fered public-spirited citizens have
been apprized of the need and in most
instances have generously responded.
Contributions to date amount to
s2056O in sums ranging from 81 to
$50. Anything from SIS to 800 is
good contribution depending upon the
financial ability of the donor. The
contributor of any sum will have the
satisfac !on of knowing that he has
by so much helped Kentucky to re-
duce her li.iteracy,
A full list of contributors with
amounts contributed will be published

much better than was anticipated.

UNCLE SANS FAMILY QUARREL,

He was kind and generous fell
low and his spouse was the best that
COD ever made. They had three
sons, the Oldest was named Agri.
He was a good quiet fellow, always
working, raising food for the family.
The second son, named Labo. was
an industrious fellow, but very oh
stinate at times and would QUARREL
very often with younger brother.
Capi, who would not work at all
and wanted to boss the entire family
and did until Uncle Sam, the father
just nut his foot down on Capi, who
was fighting Labo, and Labo only
wanted what was right. But the
Oldest son Agri kept right on pro-
yiding food for all the family. He
was never taken into confidence of
any of the affairs of the family.
1t seems just as though Uncle Sam,
the father did not think of him at
all, only that he provided food for
his quarreling brothers and they
have been quarrelling so long that
1t is getting tiresome to Agri. who
until now, has said nothing Saws
now, that if he can't have any saw in
the affairs of the family he will
join in the fuss, then how long will
the fight last If he quits finding pro-
visions for the family Then.
there are so many visitors in the
home and many of whom Agri does
not like. One fellow named Bolshc-
visit had better go back home as he
is not wanted here and let him tnlse
|. w w with him. and let father
settle the quarrel between the two
younger brothers, Labo and ca.i
