than that parsonage accorded the

Alamo. II am a general, not a

At San Jacinto, Castrillon mounted

Texans, remembering his conduct at
the Alamo, treated him gently and
bore him to the home of Lorenzo de

Texan army, and there he died. To-

Meeting link Of friendship with her
neighbor across the Rio Grande
which, with the passing years, has
served to alleviate the antagonisms
growing out of the revolution.

from Mexico and set up free and
independent republic and it remained
such for nine years, until in 1845, it
was admitted to the Union. With q

and widely diversified natural re-

OLD TIME ORATORY.

OLD LIME Una 1oN I.
MED BRUNSON HARRIS, former
secretary to Senator Mcclellan of
Tennessee, was a great friend Of John
Sharp Williams, the late Senator from
Mississippi
When John Sharp Williams was
minority leader of the House of Rep
resentatives he once told the story
about the fix" of his old friend
"Uncle Marlin Stubblefield."
Neddie Harris recalls that story as
follows:
The story was used by the late
proach administered to Congress by
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen.
Bristow because of the undue influence
of Congressman in the machinery of
the departments.
One day, according to Williams,
"Uncle Marlin spoke of certain
family of people up in the northern
part of the country as being fellows
with tusks, a family that rooted in
the ground, ate acornS, wore no
clothes, and warn't no folks, sah!"
Soon after that a big, Strapping
member of the family, bearing two
six-shooters, put in an appearance.
II understand" he said to Uncle
Marlin, that you said my father was
q hog"
Uncle Marlin looked over the six
shooters and the 6footer and said:
'Whoever told you that is liar. All
said was this: That your father
had tusks, that he rooted in the
ground, that he didn't wear no clothes
and that he warn't no folks You
can make the most of that, if you
choose. but I'll swear I never called
your father a hog
Now" Mr. Williams concluded,
"Mr. -Bristow has given you all the
descriptions of hog, by which de-
scription every man would know a
hog if he saw one, but he declines to
say in 'haec verba' that you really are
hogs"
HOW MANY BULBS?

Gently moved in. The distinguished
visitors had come and gone, and with
them the huge crowds that had at
tended their visit. Night fell, and the
moon came up over the tree tops. Its
light silvered the little house and the
land which was to produce the sus-
tenance for the family I speak of. The
father and the mother and the chill
dren came out into the night and
walked back and forth before this
house which was their own. And, as
the mother said later, I'VE just
couldn't believe that this dream of
ours had at last come true, that here
in the moonlight was home that was
really ours We all went indoors and

1t is sentimental, know, but ! tell

fund, and have made actual expendi-
lures Of more than $5,000,000.
Naturally, the houses we are put
ting up are not mansions. They can
not be and still come within the
price which homesteader can af-
ford to pay. But they are substantial,
well-designed houses, with some fea-
lures which far more expensive houses
lack. They are not shacks devoid
of privacy or comfort, unable to stand
the test of time and weather. They
are homes of convenience and attrac-
ton, with electricity and proper heat
ing, suited to the needs of the various
sections of the country where they
are located. They constitute q long
forward step in the history of housing
and the housing of persons in the
low income classes in our country
is one of the dark portions Of our
civilization.
But subsistence homesteading has
more to 1t than the economic side,
than the housing side. The social
side is, after all, the most important.
In the urbanization Of our national
life, people lost something. They lost
the old emphasis on the family as the
fundamental social unit; they lost
the old joys of neighborliness and
community living. On a subsistence
homestead, they can recapture those
lost values. They lost, too, the op-
portunity and the knack of doing
thingS for themselves. On a sub
siStence homestead, they can find any
number of outlets for individual crea-
tive effort.
Men Build Homes.
like to think of what they are
doing down on our homestead project
at CroSsville, Tenn. The homestead
ers there, were once miners and
workers in the lumber industry, but
the mines closed down and the forests
were cut of, and the men who had
once depended upon them for a liv-
ing were left stranded. Many of
them, when we went there, had been
on relief for several years. Their
future was one of continued unem-
ployment. They knew nothing be-
yond their old trades.
Then, the project was started. We
bought tract of land which had on
it some very fine building stone and
some splendid timber. The stone
was quarried; the timber was cut by
a homestead sawmill. The home
steaders themselves cleared the land,
built roads. constructed their own
home. Today. they have a score of
