so little news I might just tell you
how we celebrated ouce in the
good old days of long ago. We call
ed it "George Btrth-ngton's Wash
day." and since George never told
a lie we panned around slips of
paper to see which one could write
the biggest one.
The brat one wrote: "My children

Collie are better.

a 'course in electrical engineering
at State College All three of them
are doing self he hi work to help
defray the expenses at their educa
tion. the boys helping sweep the
grade building and Mrs. Carson
keeping study halls
Mrs. Carson never had a college
education, because, being an or
phan. it was necessary that she
try to earn a livelihood as early as
povuhlr after she finished high
school After she attended a sum
mer school. E. C- T. C. stood the
examination, and got a first grade
certificate, she taught schools for
tag years. "This was long enough
to p^ove to me that teaching was
not my vocation," she said. During
the war she did office work, as
most of the boys were in France,
and it was easy to secure work
without training "I have always
felt since then that this was what
I w anted to do," she said.
"The death of my husband left
me three years ago with .little be
sides some insurance. I think it
is my duty to help my boys get an
education and this is the only way
I can see. I think with what assist
ance I can give the boys through
my secretarial work, that with their
working, they can get a college
education It may take them more
than four years, but they can do it."
"And I haye not been disappoint,

The neat one wrote My grand
father had a mule Old Pete was a
wonderful mule One day he got
in the back woods lot to the still
where we made brandy and he ate
so much mash and drank so much
beer that he got real beastly drunk
He came stumbling and staggering
up towards the home and when he
got near he fell down dead drunk
Grandpa said. Boys old Pete is
dead Come on and skin turn and
save the hide" So we skinned him
and rolled up the hrdr and sent it
town. Then we went and dressed
sut sheep for the market Just
about the time we finished the
sheep old Pete waked up and got
up and came on up to the house
Grandpa sard he would sure freer*
to death as it was only ten above
rero. So we covered turn with
sheep skins and fitted and tied
them good and close around him
The sheep skins grew to turn and
after that we sheered forty pounds j
of fine wool bsm o!d Pete every
year for twenty yean.
