TUB FAMILY (rlK)UP
..When I was a boy, it was not unusual
for a community to be visited
by a traveling photographer, then
called a picture taker. Nearly every
family wanted a group picture and
our family fell for the racket. They
cost $2.00 for 1 or $3.00 for 4.
? 1 1 - '
. .1 never will forget the day we were
all told by ma to get ready to have
our pictures took. 'Washing faces
and feet and' hands, combing and
greasing our hair, putting on our
Sunday clothes and otherwise trying
to tyok pretty.... was an ordeal that
1 shall neVer forget.
. We were nil herded but in the front
yard, l'a wanted the picture to take
in the front of the house; we had
two glass windows in oiw house and
he wanted* them to show. ^Jlass windows
was a sign of near wealth then.
There were only 10 of us children and
1 dogs, anil ma and pa in our family.
Hut we hud tt) leave -out the dogs;
the picture man made us do that,
much to my disappointment,
..After moving alPof us about and
pushing (ore of us forward and another
backward, making Jim stand
up and Sal lie sit down, and adjusting
2 babies on nut's lap and 2 slightly
older onok on pa's knees, the picture
taker began to sight as us thru
a little black hole with a cloth over
his head. 1
.When pa and ma thought everybody*
wa- ready, we discovered that
Jule and Jerry were not there. We,
counted the flock twice, and sure
enough they were missing. We
finally found Jule hid under the ginIn.use
and Jerry was in top of a tree
oyer a hundred feet high. We finally
got them in line, but they were
powerful mad and terribly seared.
I'a held a big book in his hand on j
his right knee ,iu>t beyond the 2
voungun- and nia had her nice- 10-J
cent fan in her left hand where it
would show up well. Most of us
were white-headed; our clothes altogether
didn't cost 2 dollars; nomade,
sprinkled but not ironed, and
not a shoe was on bur feet. We didn't
have any shoes.
.
?
The time finally came for the -hot
and the man blew a whistle and
mashed a syringe and we didn't know
anything else till he came back a
week later. Four of us were crying
in that picture; 1 was trying to get
something out,. ?f my nose; Bertha
had a .cob in her mouth and the rest
of the kids were either crying,a grinning
or were asleep. My face took
plumb black; 1 was in the shade. As
soon as the girls and boys got big
enough to be ashamed of anything,
they -tore up that group picture, but
I'd give 10 dollars for it today. It
was the ugliest bunch of folks 1 ever
saw assembled in one place at or.o
time, that i> ? except ma and pa; they
looked fine. ?

Warner, 10-year-old negro, who confessed
an attack on u white girl, was
hanged to a tree on the court house
lawn last night by a mob, which

members of the mob applied torches^
flaming gasoline soaked rags. f
Officers said Warner had confessed
attacking a Si-year-old white girl in
