SCHOOL CALLED
VISION FULFILLED
History of Pine Mountain
Settlement is Told at
Louisville Dinner.

"The Pine Mountain Settlement
School is a dream fulfilled Miss Lou
Use VIII said last night at the final Al
trusa Club dinner. Miss Will thanked
Louisville Altrusans for the scholar
ship of $3.50 which they presented to
the school this year.
A short history OF the school was
given by Miss Will The land in Har-
Ian county, where the school is sit
uated. was presented by an old noun
taineer who had love for his neighbors
and also an ambition for their future
In his heart. Today there are five res
idence houses beside the regular school
building and a church Is in process OF
being built. There are twenty six
settlement workers.
Children Come Fifty Miles.
The children come TO the school from
distances OF thirty, forty and fifty
miles. Contrary to the prevalent idea
their parents are much interested and
are perfectly willing, even eager for
their children to get an education.
They themselves frequently bring the
children across the mountain to put
them in the hands OF the settlement
workers..
These children are the descendants
NJ the English and Scotch. the same
race Of people who came along the
wilderness Trail to Louisville more
than $50 years ago. These children
who cross the mountains for the first
time when they come to the school
sing the same old English ballads and
dance the same old. English folk
dances that their ancient forebears
sang and danced in .Merrie England"
Revivins Weaving At Home.
Until the last few years the noun
tain women wove all the clothes for
the family. Every house could boast
its loom. The patterns used in the
weaving were the same year after
year. The Pine Mountain school is
reviving this art which had almost
died out since the advent OF ready
made clothing. The children are taught
the art OF weaving and some of the
patterns used are 200 or 800 years old.
According TO Miss Will the hope is
that the children will carry back into
their homes not only the efficiency
and technique of our modern civiliza-
ton, but also new and vital inter-
est in those old time things which are
a heritage OF the mountain people,

New York, August 2S.--Johnny Dundee, veteran Italian pugilist, sue cessfully defended his world junior lightweight" title tonight, receiv- ing the judges decision after a 15- round contest with Vincent Pepper" Martin of Brooklyn.
 Martin was willing enough fighter but he was no match for Dundee's experience. The Italian was fast and he attacked the Brook lyn boys head and body as he pleased. The whole contest was nothing more than boxing lesson for Martin. Dundee was never in danger.
 Dundee entertained the crowd in the early rounds by bounding off the ropes and coming at his opponent with head down and rull of fight. In- variably these tactics fooled Martin and he responded to punching ex- changes in which he was worsted
 Martin weighed l3o pounds and Dundee 124%.
