I REMEMBER,'
SV THE OLD TIMERS
From Mrs. E. E. Brown, Hanni
bal, N. Y.: I remember when Mid-
dlesbo rough, Kentucky, did not
have houses enough for its resi
dents and I lived with my parents
in a tent furnished by the State of
Kentucky. We lived on what was
then known as Queensbury Heights.
My parents were employed by
"The Middlesboro News” the
town’s first newspaper.
From Nancy Ingle, lendrick,
Idaho: I remember when women
horseback riders rode only “side
saddles” with the right leg thrown
over the saddle horn, and only the
left in the stirrup, with the dress
always covering the shoe top. Nev
er must she ride astride—that was
for men and boys only.
From Mrs. G. M. Houck, Hast
ings, Pa.: I remember when
mother scrubbed the bare wooden
floor of our kitchen, using home
made lye soap/* and the floor was
as white as a polished bone.
From Lewis B. Avery, Clinton,
Michigan: I remember in the 1870’s
when some of us boys wore red
top boots, and that we were always
outgrowing them, so that before
they were worn out, we had a
whale of a time putting them on
and off; and when my grandmother
made tallow candles. 12 at a time
with candle molds; when my
mother was always afraid of kero
sene lamps, because of the repu-
tation they had for exploding as a
result of the oil not being sufficient
ly free of gasoline; when matches
were scarce, and my grandfather
one time borrowed a shovel full of
coals to start a fire in our kitchen
stove; and when sleigh bells were
frequently used on horses in the
winter time. I also remember my
father’s old musket and his light
green overcoat with cape to cover
the shoulders, which ha used dur
ing the Civil War.
