When making this proposition, my
husband added the provision that the
house should be used as a community
hall, for dinners, dances, picnics, Sum-
day school, church or any other COM
munity function. There was some OPP
position to dancing, but that was swept
away.
The matter dragged along. One day
Blackstone met the homesteaders and
ranchers at the ~postoffice and asked
them when they were going to haul the
logs. Plenty of excuses were offered for
the delay.
"'Just drop the whole DEAL Black
stone said. These logs are all cut and
piled, and will make me a fine cabin
Then he came home and told me all
about it.
Next morning shortly after day.
light-it was Sunday morning-several
teams and men appeared and began to
haul the logs away.
What are you doing?' my husband
shouted.
We're getting out the logs for the
schoolhouse," they replied defiantly. My
husband laughed. "I1l be down and
help you with the building Monday"
he said. His bluff had worked. I re-
member a Mrs. Nicholson, an old tim
err on the Dearborn, gave $50 to buy
glass and other additional material for
the building.
After the building was completed
dances were held once or twice a
month. The room was about 30 feet
long and 20 feet wide-a large hall for
those days. Most Of us were young
married folks. We brought " babies.
The old schoolhouse vas fitted up as a
kind of nursery, storeroom, and cook
shack. There were hooks for U wraps.
Robes and blankets taken from sleds
made fine beds for the babies-and
there were quite a number Of them.
We made coffee in five-gallon oil cans.
The carpenters made several saws
horses, with boards to fit, to be used
for tables.
AT midnight we would set up the ia
bles and eat. Then we danced until
daylight. If anybody got hungry, after
midnight, there vas coffee, q slab Of
pie, or a piece of cake for the asking,
out in the storeroom.
Some Of the young men rode horse
back Is miles from Wolf Greek, and
some rode through the snow, 80 miles
from Augusta. Jud Cecrest fiddled for
us. He lived is miles away, over on
Flat creek. He played a concertina
and his wife played a small organ. And
it was fine music. It was quite a task
to plan for a dance, as we had to bring
so much food, tablecloths, cups and
saucers, also knives, forks and spoons.
I'VE all got along pretty well togeth-
er in those days. Sometimes the men
might have some disagreement during
the week and there might be q fight
or two, but when dance night came,
everything was friendly. My husband
was floor manager at the dances.
There never was a roughhouse or any
thing like that.

President Roosevelt's proc
lamation and executive order
Selling all domestic silver, eX-
cept newly mined, within
ninety days will mean issu-
ance of $100,000,000 in new
silver certificates as rapidly
"as the presses can turn them
out" Treasury Secretary
Henry Morgenthau Jr., said.
The congressional infationary
bloc, headed by Senator Elmer D
Thomas Dem, Okla), hailed the
seizure as a boon for farmers from
the standpoint that it will be easier
for them to pay off their debts and
the making of silver as a primary
money with gold.

Mr.. Morgenthau would not enter
the controversy, explaining that the

cate issuance"
Oflcials estimate that there are
approximately 2OO,OOO,OOO ounces oil
silver subject to the order in which
the price was placed at 50.01 cents
an ounce.
The treasury's policy is to issue
silver certificates at the cost, hold
ing the balance in reserve. This
means an issue of approximately
$1OO,OO0,O0 in new currency.
Observers saw in President Roose-
velt's naturalization edict a swift
step toward his sound currency
program.
Mr.. Morgenthau termed the seiz-
ure a rehabilitation of silver" but
declined to amplify the remark. He
said that the order affects only

of East Columbus, Ind, may be
raised from a bed in which he has
lain two years.
And for the first time in his
life, he is going to have a sweet
heart.
In the Robert Long hospital
today lies Noah. Fuzz tinges his
upper lip. And in the voice
changing keys of his age he tells
of how he wrote a letter to the
President following a radio ad-
dress he heard in his Columbus
home, and how the President,
through a secretary, answered the
letter and gave him his first
chance to become a man among
men by having him hospitalized.
Since he was 6 Noah has been
a wall flower and sideline observer
in the games and sports of his
playmates.
A bruise suffered when he fell
on a playground caused the be-
ginning of disease known as
chronic osteomyelitis, loss of bone
through assesses.
His right elbow stiffened and be-
came useless.
Bed became his home. A month
or two would pass and he would
return to school. A new injury
would be suffered and he would
return to his bedspread play
ground.
Out of his seventeen years,
~ Noah has spent but four years
in school, and he's gone through
eight grades in that period of
time.
His grammar school graduation
diploma was awarded to him in
bed.
Two years ago, a fall from a
bicycle resulted in injury to his
shinebone and loss of the use Of
his left leg.

address, told of the Warm Springs
foundation for crippled children.
Noah listened Noah's mother and
father, Mr.. and Mrs. H. M. Rush,
heard the address.
His parents wondered if some
thing could not be done for their
son.
NTOAH acted. He wrote letter
IN to the President, telling him
of his illness. A secretary replied
that the matter had been referred
to the proper authorities. A few
days later two women investiga-
tors visited his home. They heard
Noahs story of his i'll health.
Republication at Robert w. Long
hospital followed.
In the ward room where Noah
lives are other patients reading
letters from Sweethearts. wives or
delving in fictional romances.
Noah's never had a romance.
He's spent his puppy-love days
in bed
Just gone two or three times
with the girls. Maybe once in a
while to a movie show. But you
just wait, when I get out. Guess
I'll get me a sweetheart then, like
the rest of the boys" he assures
you.
NTOAH says his Republican dad

if he walks from the hospital this
fall.
And physicians at the hospital
agree that the chances are good"
that he'll be out of the hospital
after slight operation on his left
