Early Homes
Built Of-Logs,
Clay And Turf

Not all early settlers in Illinois
lived in log cabins and enclosed
their fields with split rail fences.
Pioneers who took up land far
from timber often built houses
Of "rammed" clay and made fenc-
eS from turf.
According to an account by an
early resident Of Henry County,
says the Illinois Writers Project,
WPA, walls were about two feet
thick and the whole structure re
sembled the adobe home COM
monty found in Mexico and the
Southwest. 1t was warm in win
ter and cool in summer.
When a settler decided to
build turf fence, he first dug a
ditch about three feet deep around
the field to be enclosed, with a
slope toward the center of his
land. Dirt piled on the outside
was covered with a sufficient
number Of layers Of sod to turn
cattle and horses.

Spends $50 On
Teeth To Enlist

WINNSBORO, N. CLAMP -
When Carl Davis, 10, volunteered
for service with the army, defec-
tive teeth caused him to be re-
jectsd. So he went to a dentist
and at the cost Of $50 had the ply
steal defect remedied. Tuesday
he reapplied at the county health
denortment and was accepted.
His father, Eddie Davis, was
one Of this country's first volun-
teers in the first world war. He
served overseas, and has since
been an exemplary citizen Of the
town where he owns and operates
a pressing club. This is the sort
Of spirit which accounts for the
fact that all the Negroes accept
ed here have been volunteers.
