Oldest Blacksmith Will
Seek New Career

Chippewa FalIS-The horseshoei1g
days of Sam Greenlee, 70, probably
Wisconsin's oldest blacksmith, are
over.
During the 40-odd years that Sam
has been picking up horses feet by
the fetlocks and putting on the steel
shoes, he has been kicked many times.
In fact, he says, he lost track of the
number. These little mishaps never
bothered him much. He would just
dust himself off bit and go back to
work-even if he was a little hurt
sometimes.
But the other day Saw was picked
up by the foot of a restless horse and
thrown into pile of scrap iron sever
al feet distant.
He didn't go back to work. The ac-
cident would have been trivial in
younger days but man does get old
and his bones change" and so Sam
went to the hospital. He isn't getting
along so we'll and he admitted that he
never expected to use the hammer
with which he has tapped on thou
sands of shoes again.
He's going to try to find work,
though, when he gets out of the hos
pital ward. He wants to do some
thing that's light and fitting for an old
man.
Before he got kicked this last time
Sam never would admit that he was
getting old.

washington's Chinatown, on lower

spector Clifford L. Grant.
Inspector Grant has told the lead

must show good evidence Of their
desire to avert trouble by keeping
their homes. shops and Railways
brightly illuminated.
It Is understood both factions
have agreed to comply with the in

section Of the Avenue IL expected
soon to become as much American
lied as has the clothing Of the
Orientals.
Police who are keeping their eyes
on the impending trouble between
the two tongs here say there is a
lull in the situation at present.
1t was pointed out by the author
