Winter Comes to Mcdowell
for Long Stay; Snow Galore

Although winter arrived Off
cially several days previously it
was not until the oath that Key
stonites realized the fact. Snow
and cold weather began and have
held sway ever since. The tenn
perature has been away down
in the teens several nights, and
the usually un-beautiful Elk
horn creek h a almost frozen
over in the wide places with a
frigid beauty unsupported (and
unappreciated, we fear) of a
coat of ice. Snow has not been
so plentiful but it has come
often enough TO make up for that
point. The seige of cold and I'M
pleasant weather seems to be
shared by the rest of the country
we observe from the papers.

No cobwebs In His Hroln

"John Nance Garner was born on
Nov. %. as near Thanksgiving as so
modest and wise a person would
choose to be. His countrymen can't
help numbering him among their
blessings this week." said an editorial
In the New York Times a year or so
ago in commenting upon the vice
presidents birthday "He holds play
fully" said the editorial, that the
books have got the year of his birth
wrong. They say it was 1868. He pre-
fers $50. For us it is go until he selects
some other date. Commemoration of
his birthday should be movable
feast. Early to bed and early to rise
has had its proverbial effects. On his
anniversary Monday he was out of
bed at 7:45 a. m; into it again at 9 p m
He has been at Washington for
nearly IS years. There he is an insti-
tuition. Young folks little careless
with their geography yet with an in
stinctive sense of the higher pro-
prieties are apt to think Of Uvalde as
the capital of Texas. He has minded
his own business perfectly. He has
minded the nations affairs carefully
and competently.
He can be patient with policies
that he disapproves. A sort of Ben
Franklin. he has no cobwebs in his
brain. He. can be exposed freely to
fantasists and fanatics and keep the
peace. 1t is'lucky for his own that he
Is philosopher. The Fluctuations of
his colleagues drove him from the
chamber. Politicians who habitually
spread their ears upon the ground
can admire man given to forming
his own opinions
HE is wise by nature and long ex-
perience. without prctense, pedantry
or solemnity. He is good man, an
able man, full of humor and a good
fellow. If he doesn't make his years
round hundred, that will be the first
time that he haf disappointed the
public hope"

COAL CAMP LIFE AND ITS
RELATION TO TOWN LIFE

Life in the average coal camp
today is practically identical to
existence in a corporate town,
with the differences that there
are more commercial houses and
more professional services at
hand in the latter. However, the
multitude of stores and various
businesses in "centers" are on
the whole, merely for the miner
trade. 49,. ....

and some "hollows" have more
peop'e in them than the county
seat. We know of towns that are
lifted as coal camps which have
fully the population of some
county seats. The skill of coal
company carpenters in building
and anchoring houses in the
most impossible places has long
been celebrated. Some camps

times that number erched here |
and there on the hillsides and in
the valleys. :. =.
In former days the miner was
by necessity a hardy gentleman,
for the wind yowled around all
sides of his house, including the
bottom of it., The uninsulated
walls and roof made it almost
impossible to heat, and the front
porch might be 40 feet from the
earth while the back porch III
any, was dug into the hillside.
In such poineer-like surround
ings the miner raised big and
healthy family, drank his liquor
whenever he pleased, regardless
of the prohibition act, and in a
few words lived up to the motto
of the state. 800
All coal miners were not then
nor now law-abiding. In days OF
the past. coal camp toughs were
bad gents, They knew more OF
the possibilities of the pistol
than Sam Colt himself, however
it must be said that few If any
of the early days coal camp bad
eggs were cold blooded criminals.
Most of them were the product
of environment. AS children,
they did about as they pleased
which meant they fell in bad or
near-bad company. Even today
some parents in the best of coal
camps let their children run
wild" all the time and wonder
why they are classed among the
"no-goods" by other families OF
the same camp. They just THINK
these other families are snooty
and forget the whole matter un-
til rumors of youthful devil
ment" come to their ears which
they of course refuse to believe
Finally someone breaks into the
post office, store or damages the
property of either company or
some Individual and people have
the nerve totpoint suspiciously
at their CHILDREN = who by the
way, are half grown criminals
by this time. This condition IS
rare today but by no means IS IL
extinct. Lack of guidance and OF
law enforcement agencies up the
hollows was the usual cause. To-
day the churches and officers OF
the law are at hand and busy.
A fight in practically any coal
camp, no matter how isolated,
invariably results in the quick
appearance of the law, and the
law is not to be trified with has
b n demonstrated sufficiently
to deter imitationbad men today.
Thus law and religion having
reached the coal camp we do not
find mush difference from life in
"town" and the coal camp.
True enough the lack of pro-
perty ownership has worked
against the average miners TAX
ing much pride in the appear
ence of his home. But this is
his error, for not one in any
ten miners usually has any plan
to work at anything else but the
digging of coal, and when he do
es move it is to another coal.
camp. Some miners have lived
a score of years in the same
house without any improving
of the pace or grounds at I'll.
The miner who is always plan
ming on going back to the farm,
etc, so seldom does it that no
body takes him seriously these
days. Also amateur improving"
of company houses is a sport
that gives the company head
aches as it observes some of the
hair-raising improvements"
and forbids them altogether out
of self-defense.

is a fairly decent Place to live

FROM MULLENS-
BY Beatrice Hickman Hazard


The beautiful snow sent by
Mither Nature added much to
the hilarity of the holiday seas
on making it possible Ito stay at
home" and burn the Yule log.
We are now entering the New
Year with it's prospects. Stats
ticians have not yet computed
how many boks could be made
/ from the new leaves turned an
nually on January first; nor
have they computed the COM
bined length of time these reso-
lutions are kept.
One usually says (and serious
ly SOY Il will strive harder; |
will do better; l will accomplish
more in this year that is just
commencing" 1t is true that
resolutions foolishly or unwisely
made and speedily broken often
result in more harm than good,
because they tend to weaken the
morale; but genuine effort to
better ones condition must
prove beneficial to the individu-
al and to society in general.
The old year is ended; The
bright New Year with all it's
possibilities for success and
happiness, is before us. Let us
strive to attain newer heights
in 1910, to realize newer dreams,
if not be good sport and keep
some of the "old resolutions.
