among the hills. 1t is the home of John
Fox. Ir. 1t is situated in the coal fields
OF Wise county. 1T is not exactly in the

How many of you cousins like to go hunt
ing? Most all of you who have studied
history know about Daniel Boone. He was
great hunter. l will tell something of his
life. He was noted American hunter and
pioneer. He was born in Pennsylvania
in 1875. When he was eighteen years old
his family moved to North Carolina, and
from there he made many hunting trips in
the wilderness, and in 1853, with five
others, he set out to explore the regions of
Kentucky. Boone and a companion named
Stewart were captured by the Indians, but
soon escaped. They were again captured,
and this time Stewart was killed, while
Boone escaped. Boone was left alone with
neither support nor defense except his rifle.
ne ldLeE attempted 10 SeIlle III hSnIuCkyI
but was cut off by the Indians. He finally
selected a fort on the Kentucky river and
named it Boone's borough, and it was
attacked several times by the Indians He
died in 1920 and now lies buried at Frank
fort, KY. His adventures, as told by him
self, have been written by John Filson.
Now cousins, my Letter is getting long. /

time. 1 girl-not old one. Every
one write me. Ill answer all 1 can. A

Dear Aunt Julia and Cousins: I will try
today to get admittance into your wonderful
circle of boys and girls. Oh, my! What
lively bunch you have, Aunt Julia! Really,
aren't you proud of many?
Well, cousins, 1 live in the country, be-
tween Jeffersonville and Gordon, on a farm,
of course, although my daddy is saw
miller. This country around here is mostly
billy, although once in a while you see
little level. Everybody nearly is either a
farmer or saw miller, as these are the
chief industries.
I am not a new cousin. / visited the
Letter Box about two years ago. Please,
cousins, send your photos to have printed
m going to send mine in just a little
while. Girls, let the boys discuss the 'pow
der puff" and the ''bobbed hair 1t
doesn't hurt us what they say, does it?
Just pretend we don't see those remarks in
their letters, hear? Well, cousins, I've
been i'll and am so nervous 1 just can't
write. All who scan just send a letter or
card to ETHEL JOHNSON.
