Johnson, Cameron, 1 rcmsinber ihe horse-drawi. wood saw. - Poles, resembling a wagon tongue, f_>ur in number, were joined in a hub and two horse; hitched to each pole, facing the pole ahead. A man would ride the ead horse and they went around clock-wise and pulled the saw. The neighbors would gather to assist in sawing the winter's supply of wood. I remember when children were said to have a contagious dis ease, the family doctor hung a small bottle of carbolic acid high on a nail after first removing the cork from the bottle, then sliced raw onions and put them in the windows and other places around the house. This was to catch germs from the sick room. From Kingston Fairlcss, St. Paul: I remember when boys came to school wearing stiff linen collars to distinguish themselves in rank from boys wearing celluloid collars. The linen collars scratched the boys' necks. You could wash the celluloid collars every morning before put ting them on. From E. F, Meredith, Fairmont, W. Va.: 1 remember when folks carried lanterns to church; when, traveling pen-and-ink artists drew fancy birds in autograph albums; when men wore paper collars and when one side became soiled, the wearer would turn them over and wear stem again; when kids crawled under the wooden aide walks in search of coin* lost through the cracks. Frem Mrs. Sid Coek, Mobile, Ala.: I remember when my mother al ways picked out the choice ears of corn, the white or.'.-s, to save for use in making tne winter suppl\ t hominy.
