MISTAKEN FOR DEER, KILLED JAMES CHEATWOOD—OR -MA BE IT’S JOEL. By NEA Service Leavenworth, Kan., Nov. 17.—D'ja ever meet James and Joel Cheatwood, twin-brother farmers of this neck 0’ the woods? Well, this will introduce them to- gether—becausg folks simply can’t tell them apart. James is 90 years, old, so's Poel. Joel has a flowing white beard, so’s James. Both of ’em part their hair on the left side and flash a pair of blue eyes. You can't get either one of the brothers to admit that they are old.{ “I am not what you'd call an old; says James—or maybe it was Joel. “I was born just a little sooner than younger folks—that’s all.” “I can do as much work as any of these young sprouts. around here,” says Joel—or maybe it was James. It’s been nigh on to 50 years since the brothers settled down to farming, on farms a mile apart, near Leaven- worth. When either one of them makes a trip in to town, as far as the town- folks are concerned, it might be the other. When neighbors see them in their own back yards—well, even then it isn’t safe to make a bet, ‘cause James often calls on Joel and Joel often calls on James. Interviewing the twins is a puzzle in itself. Looking directly at one of them, for instance, you ask: Y- | tion. JOEL CHEATWOOD—OR MAY- BE IT’S JAMES. And the other one answers: “Hard work! That's all tere is to it. If I had retired like several of my friends did, I would have been dead years ago. “Quitting one’s life work to spend time at case kills quickly. The way to live is to keep your interest in your farm, your business or whatever work you are following.’ - And then the other one, maybe it’s James—explains: “Freedom from worry has been my chief aid, in reaching a ripe old age. Just eat what you want in modera Don’t read about. and think about symptons of sickness and you wiil stay well a lot longer.” Joel—or James—believes he and his brother are the oldest twins in the United States. And James—or Joel— adds, “L reckon go.” Both the twins are married. Joel— or miXve it’s—no, it’s Joel—has seven children. James hasn’t any. One of the brothers recently cele- brathed his 60th wedding anniversary. Neighbors aren't just sure which one it was. Anyway, there isn’t any question as to how they feel about how long they are going to live. For both James and Joel—or Joel and James—reply: “We'll live until we die, anyway. And, for that long, it seems that the “How did you young, James, in years?” i MARTIAL LAW IS DECLARED IN COAL FIBLD Action Taken In Advance Of, Strike Called in Colorado | come to keep $9; friends of the twin-brother farmers, | spite of your 90|won’t be able to tell whether Joe} is; James or whether James is Joel.
