 Bishop Rowe's gift of hospital for Wrangell was never iutened as an Episcopal investment" in the finaucial sense of the word. It was an investment in service, an answer to an appeal made to a great hu- manitaaian in a time of need As such, he had friends who gave funds for his work in Alaska that made him in part independent of the usual restrictions. He no doubt felt that his age and his many years of pioneer service entitled him to that privilege. It is no criticism of Bishop Bentley to say that ho cannot do as Bishop Rowe did and must await the decision of the National Council of the Church.
 Most of the trouble and discoW- agement of the last years has been due to lack of nurses. Wrangell has not been unique in that respect but the lack Of two nurses can cause a small hospital to close while a larger one keeps going the available nurses working and the patients getting less service The release of thousands of nurses from war duty should soon remedy the present situation.
 We of the hospital board learned long ago that the Town of Wran- gel could not legally give financial help to a hospital that was not q municipal institution. Petersburg was held uD as an example of what a hospital could do if operated by the City. Wrangell has now been offered the hospital on a long term lease. The Church will even give help. Bishop Bentley writes. Why is the situation so helpless? Why should a church-any church, as sume the entire responsibility Of disqualification when the town should be able to shoulder most of is7 Fro.n all that is said. the fight plant is a going concern and some of it's profits could be utilized for no better purpose than to keep the hospital going.
 T. ie only because of Dl-- contin- ued interest in Wrang~ll and my intimate knowledge of Bishop Rowe's hopes for the hospital and it's continued opera ton az part of his beloved Church work for Alas ka uronnted his generosity. He ex pected the community to run the hospital. To have that hospital set aside and closed in favor of some other venture when part of the money needed for a new building and expensive equipment could be uesd for an addition and improve ments to the present building (there is land enough and the lo cation is ideaD seems needless

up. The coal house still stands, but
q new kind of stove has come in.
1t is full of coils and has all sorts
OF fancy devices, but I suspect the
big boys don't get to go out so often
for scuttle of coal. And instead of
having every seat taken up, there
are now only half a dozen tots, tots
too small to be toted off to town by
the school board bus.
But back to the disgrace. The
boys seemed like giants, and I was
afraid of them. When recess time
came, the big girls must have seen
my uneasiness, for they took me to
their backhouse to relieve myself.
When I returned, the boys were
waiting, and tainted me until felt

and some would start one direction

start north and pretty soon I would
come to the top of a hill and there
would be the Croy farm.
That was the way all farms were
spoken of. The Newt Kennedy
farm, the Scott farm, the Willhoyte

people have. Sometimes a family
would move away, but their place
was still called the Duncan farm,

THE STORY THUS FAR: Amos Croy,
who had served in the Civil War as .
sergeant, was one Of the covered wagon
pioneers from Ohio, who settled on home.
stead land near Marysville, Missouri.
There he met and won Susan sewell, =
daughter Of another settler, who lived
twelve miles away. Their early years
were spent in building the farm from the
ground up, one-room log home, sod barn,
new orchard, well and outbuildings.
Roads were never considered by the
original settlers, but new arrivals in
sisted, SO community roads and a school
was added to the community. Some
still went to town by way Of the trails.
1t was shorter to cut through over the
farms than 60 by the road.

Life was hard during the week.
But what wonderful day Sunday
was! We got up the same time as
usual. But there was different
tempo. Pa got up more leisurely,
and started the fire in the kitchen
stove.
Pa would pump a bucket of water
for Ma, start the kitchen stove going,
then start for the barn lot. AS I lay
in bed, or dressed, could follow his
progress by the sounds. First there
would be the creaking of the barn
door and a whinny of welcome from
the horses, then a stallkicking, so
eager were they to be fed. The
sound of Pa scooping up the corn,
then the shutting of the barn door;
this meant he was on the way to
feed the hogs. There would be a
dreadful uproar as the hogs saw
him coming. The nearer he got,
the worse the noise; the sound of
the hogs fighting among themselves.
Abruptly the uproar would die away
and peace and contentment would
descend upon the hog lot: the hogs
were feeding.
He would go to the steer yard
and there would be the sound of
corncobs swapping as the steers fol-
lowed him. Then the sound of corn
being poured into the troughs and
the soft thud of the cattle as they
bumped sides crowding up to the
troughs. Now and then steer would
give grunt; that meant one steer
had chugged another with his head.
With the horses and steers fed,
Pa would unlock the windmill.
There would be a sharp clang as
the gears meshed, then a whirring
as the wind laid hold of the blades.
Then could hear him coming to
the house; no time for lazing now,
and l would spring into my pants.
Pa didn't think much of anybody
who couldn't get dressed by the time
the stock was fed. My mother would
be up, putting corncobs and coal into
the kitchen range. BY that time Pa
would be at the kitchen door. No
one in our house ever said good
morning. But Pa would say:
"Susan, we've got dead pig"
Mother would say, Zone of the
strong oneS?"
'No. Old Blackie's titman."
Then a feeling of relief.
We'd take our buckets and start
for the COW lot, Pa and Ma walking
ahead, and m. bringing up the rear,

NATION TO CELEBRATE

WASHINGTON, Sept. l. R -
President Truman said tonight in
Labor Day statement that the
nation recognizes the Importance
and dignity of Labor and the right
of every American to wage
which will permit decent living
standard.
The Presidents comment was
echoed by other leaders in Ale
country, as the United States pre-
pared to celebrate the Labor Day
holiday.
Concern was voiced by some
leaders, however. lest the process
of reconversion and attendant ill.,
employment might not be prompt
ly solved.
Meanwhile he nations war work
ers, who have been urged since
the start of the war to regard La
Dor Day as just another working
day, were told to have fun on Mon
day.
each year since the battle of
production began" WPB Chair
man J. A. Krug said in a statement,
american labor has responded
nobly to the repeated urgings to
stay on the job until victory is
won. Now, at last, thanks to Ia
boris patriotic steadfastness, this
year it is pleasure to invite la
Dor to celebrate it's magnificent
accomplishments in winning the
war"
In his tribute to labor Mr.. Tru-
man said:
"Six years ago the workers of
the United States and of the world,
awoke to Labor Day in a world
at war. The Democracies of west
ern Europe had just accepted the
challenge of totalitarianism. We in
the United States had two years of
grace. But the issue was squarely
joined at that hour, as we now
know. There was to be no peace
until tyranny had been outlawed.
"Today we stand on the thres-
hold of new world. We must do
our part in making this world what
it should be-a world in which the
bigotries of race and class and
creed shall not be permitted to
warp to souls of men.
1--WE enter upon an era of great
problems. But to live is to face
problems. Our men and women did
not fa1ter in the task of saving
freedom. They will not falter now
in the task of making freedom Sc
cure. And nigh in the ranks of those
men and women. as a grateful
world will always remember, are
the workers of all free nations who
produced the vast equipment with
which the victory was now.
1.-THE tasks ahead are gres. and
the opportunities are equally great.
Your government is determined to
meet those tasks and fulfill those
opportunities.

and dignity of labor. and we recog-
nize the right of every Americ"r
citizen to a wage which will pc y =
