FAMOUS OHIO BATTLEFIELDS
An Ohio Fort Protects Colonial Armies

by ambushed Indians. Thirteen
returned safely but the bodies OF
two men lay in the snow.
Then Simon Girty, white rene
gade, took a hand. He persuaded
the English at Detroit to send a
war party of 200 WyandotS and
Mingoes against isolated Fort
Laurens.
Early on the morning of Febru-
ary %, 1879, seventeen soldiers,
following their daily routine, left
the Fort to bring in wood which
had been cut the previous fall.
There was no hint of danger un-
til from behind trees and under
brush the painted warriors rushed
to cut off their retreat to the Fort
The short, sharp battle ended as
quickly as it began, with the death
or capture of every soldier.
Then the siege began. Provi-
sions in the Fort were low. Daily
rations were reduced to a quarter
of pound of sour dough and the
same of rancid meat
But the soldiers were not the

Mr.. Green pointed out to the
committee that workers for the
collosal task of constructing 46
Army cantonments, which are
virtually cities in themselves,
were furnished by the unions
affiliated with our Building and
Construction Trades Department
without any cost to the Govern
ment or contractors"
He also stressed the contribu-
tions to the defense program
made by the Metal Trades De-
partment. He cited as an ex-
ample the case of the Interna-
tioanl Association of Machinists,
which recruited men from every
part of the country for work in
Navy Yards, arsenals, airplane
plants and other vital defense in
dustries.
Another notable example, out
of dozens mentioned by Mr..
Green, was that of the Interna-
tional Brotherhood of Electrical
Workers, which worked out with
Government defense agencies de-
tailed procedure for organizing
labor supply to avoid local short
ages and to prevent wasteful
and aimless flocking of workers
to areas where jobs are not
ready for them"
Mr.. Green emphasized that or
ganized labor has not received
credit in the newspapers for its
indispensable cooperation in the
defense program.
He declared that while the
Government has given generous
incentives to business to cooper
ate in the defense program,
workers have given their services
without inducements and under
severe hardships in many cases.
Among these hardships he list

Living Rooms
Get Colorful
Furnishings

There's a new brightness to in
teriors = to dining and living
rooms particularly.
And for the most part it
comes through introduction of
colorful furniture such as shown
in recently opened rooms at the
Rockefeller Home Center at New
York.
Here, as in many other care
fully planned modern homes,
sparkle of the furnishings is SUBJ
dued just enough by soft tones
in the walls and carpeting. Com
plimentary, the bright pieces and
neutral surroundings foster an
atmosphere both fresh and pleas
ant.
Walls of such rooms, when fin
ished with smooth surfaces and
clear-cut dimensions, add much
to the overall appearance of
subtle distinction. To attain the
desired neutral walls, fir ply
wood is being used increasingly
and finished in such light stains
as palm green, padre brown,
quaker grey or turquois blue.
Actually, the method now fol-
lowed to gain the mellow tones
on the paneled interiors is as
new as the spirit to which it con-
tributes. The system is based
on first applying thin coat of
white undercoater to subdue
grain contrast. When the color
coat is applied, the fir plywood
grain provides a delicate pattern
which contributes to the quiet
charm of the room.
In paneling the walls and cell
ings faint lines frequently are
made by accentuating slightly
the joints with a wee at edges.
Horizontal or verticla lines can
be attained to harmonic or con-
trast with other aspects of the
room to bring a balanced ar
rangement.

FORT LAURENS-177s

A barrel of rancid meat and a
barrel of hardtack saved the lives
of small garrison of an Ohio
fort built during the Revolution
to prevent lightning attacks of
British and Indians from the
western wilderness on the Strug-
Cling American armies.
With the completion Of Fort
Laurens, Colonel John Gibson and
his $50 troops had not long to
wait to find that though stationed
in the remote forests, they were
vital part of a bloody conflict
The Indians and English were
enraged at this audacious thrust
into the West, which threatened
their hold on strategic Ohio.
It was on a cold December day
that the gate of the one-acre out
post closed behind is men who

and the besiegers, too, were on
short rations. Finally forced by
hunger, they offered to lift the
siege if Colonel Gibson would give
them a barrel each of -four and
meat.
There was no hesitation on
Colonel Gibson's part and the
speed with which he accepted the
offer probably convinced the In

had an ample store. At any rate,
the Indians left as suddenly as
they had appeared.
