ST O R TR FATHERHOOD IN UNKNOWN AMERICA Paternal Kentucky Striking Picture of the Yearning of a White Mountaineer. (Special to The Bulletin) Washington, D. C. Oct. 16.—The searching pathos of conditions in a small corner of what might be termed Unknown America is mirrored in a communication received Dby the Na- tional Geographic Magazine from Miss Ethel De Long, of the cxecutive com- mittee_of the Pine Mountain Settle- ment_School, Pine Mountain, Harlan Co., Kentucky. Striking indeed is this picture given by the correspondent in her simple yet supremely sympa- thetic recital of the paternal yearning of a white Kentucky mountaineer to obtain educational advantages for his motherless brood of seven. A man just walked in from Big Creek, thirty miles away, to try to enter all of his seven children in our school. He would not leave only the older ones because as he sald, “If 1 part ‘em while they're leetle fellers, they won’t have no feelin's fer each other when they're raised. I want ye to take ’em all or none. Hit was their mammy's last wish that I Keep ’em together. TIl jest do fer em mysclf the best I kindf you cain’t take ’em all” He brought with him an irresistible appeal, a word picture of the seven. and his tale of how he has “keered” for them. Thirty-four years old, worn, stooped, toothless, he has made a gal- lant fight to raise his children right. He mentioned the children’s clothes “I've made ‘em all” he sald. ‘T couldn’t hire nobody to sew fer ‘em, s0 I jest made ’em everything they wear, myself. I've washed fer ‘em, Twe tended ‘em, an’ then IWe gone ouf in the cornfield to work fer 'em. T've raised ’em as right as I know, but 1 cain’t do fer ’em lak I ought. “I get right sick with the phthisic an’ Tve studled about what wculd happen to ’em if I was to be tuk from ‘em. When I have to g0 away from | ‘em to earn a leetle money, hit’s sech a dread on me, les’ they sit burned up at night, s'posin’ the house should ketch fire, an leetle fellers allus so sleepy-headed at layin’-down time. Sometimes I'm afeared to go home.” “Why didn't you marry again” I asked, “so as to get help in ralsing your children?” Tears came into his eyes. “Hit's best for leetle younguns to hev jest one mammy, an’ s'posin’ I'd thought to help ‘em a-marryin’ again, I might a got ‘em in a mighty bad state. “If we take the children, are you going to marTy again?” sad I “No'm, I'm done with martyln’. I jest want my younguns raised right, Whilst I'm a tryin’ to make money fer o “You ses, we dom't want children whose parents want to met rid of them,” said 1 “but ones whose parents want them to have a good chance.” “Yes,” he sald, “I know, That's the orteous & : TODAY IS THE OPENING DAY oF Merchants’ Week This is an important merchandise event and Ly both our city and our out-of-town patrons are in- vited to take advantage of our Merchants’ Week special offerings.
