Avery, Clinton, Michigan: I well remember the tramps who used to walk the Chi cago turnpike, now U. S. 112, in the 1870’s, and how my grand mother Avery cured a tramp of a badly crippled leg. He stopped and asked my mother for something tc eat, and she told him that she wa£ not feeling well enough to wait or him, but she would ask her mother in-law to get Ijim something. Thi? made grandmother angry and she made it known in no uncertain tones that she would not bt bothered with him. This apparent ly made him as angry as she anc ha straightened out his leg anc picked up his crutches,, put then under one arm and walked out ® the yard. I also remember the "bunch’ matches we used about that time They consisted of cubes of woot about two inches high, which hao been split part of the way through to form 10 or 12 little slabs. The split ends were covered with phos phorus. When one wanted a match he had to pull off one of the little slabs. • • • From C. T. Farmer, Tyner, Ken tucky: I remember the big wood en trough about six feet long that we used on washdays. About two feet of it was flat while the re mainder held rinse water. Mother would boil the clothes in a big kettle and the children would then beat them clean with a "battling” stick. After that they were rinsed in the trough and put out to dry.
