I REMEMBER'
BY THE OiDTIHIRS
From Mrs. Nannie McQueen,
Foxtown, Kentucky: How well I
remember January 6, 1888, when
my father. A. C McFarling moved
through McKee. Ky.. in two wag
ons pulled by an oxen team. There
were five houses in McKee at that'
time and my father-in-law, Robert
McQueen was born April 4. 1835
in a log cabin where the court ^
house now stands. It was the only ‘
house in McKee at that time.
• • •
From Gerrit Alsnm, Bellflower,
California: I remember when we
lived near Randolph, Wisconsin on
a farm. My brothers and 1 would
watch surreys and top buggies go
by. When wo saw one with benches
around the top we considered them
well off indeed.
• • •
From Joe Vire, MontioeDe, Ken
tucky: I remember the old log
schoolhouse with split log benches
and puncheon floor had one re
deeming feature. We spelled for
"head marks." 1
I have known more than one
boy to spell e word correctly but
refuse to go above the girl that
missed it because Cupid was alive
even In that remote age.
The lady from Wyoming men
tioned (in your column) the itch
in school Where I went we had
two kinds and one was the seven-
year itch. If you were tough
enough to scratch the seven-year
itch you became immune and
never had it again. That’s the kind
I had.

BOYS ARE
THAT WAY
By J. M. ELEAZER
Last week we were talking here
about makin’ sorghum syrup when
I was a boy. (Folks didn’t have jars
or jugs to put it in then. But
each family had a syrup barrel,
made by the local cooper from
sturdy white oak. And that was
their source of sweetening for
most of the year.
But out the next summer, when
the weather got hot^ something

Mrs. O. C. Dominick.

si
usually happened to that synip-
Either it gave out about that time,,
soured, or had all turned to rock
candy.
I well remember on a late June
Saturday my brother, colored
playmate, and I washed up earljr
put our clean overalls on, hitched
up the wagon, and went to Chapin
for some syrup. Ours had given
out some days before, and we were
missing the basic stuff that w,e
topped practically all meals off
with, sorghum,^ fresh butter an<^L
bread. We took two live chickena
with their feet tied and a few egjpt,
as was the custom, to pay for it
with. '* v
My daddy was the country doc
tor, and* he bad gotten some sort j
of medicine for malaria
abounded in rthe area in a 5 gal
lon jug. It was saved* cli
and used for syrup thereafter* The
chickens and eggs brought enough
to get 3 gallons of syrup.in addi
tion to a little salt and pepper that
we needed. It was drawn from a
barrel and poured in our jug. ~
some reason bulk syrup will often
start "working” or foaming up,
disturbed at that season. And it
did. But I haven’t room* for
here now. Will hold it until
week.
