Llovd, the originator T and inspirer of the movement, is a littie woman of slight bufld, sweet spirit and indomitable courage, in whose frame can be seen evidences of the uniqie pioneer work she has accomplished and s still Qoing. With her was the head of ome of the four other community, centers of the Knott County Improvement associa- tion, Miss Edna Hughes, Wellesley, 1914, and’ four of their boys, three of whom spoke of the work done at these centers. The yourgest or “least” boy, about 10 years old, and the cidest, a young man, are brothers. The litre feiiow told in childish fashion of “going the second mile/” one of the principles of the Good Citizenship. clubs rapidly being formed in_the schools of the county. The boy making the longest speech in about two years had progressed in his studles from the fourth grade to the high school and had been found so capa- ble that he is already a leader among the mountaineers and has formed'a num- ber of-the good citizenship clubs in the schools of his county. Though 15. years of age. he appeared physically more like a robust 12 year oid and, standing per- fectly at ease, ush® his hands in nat- ural, graceful fashion, he talked of the club work and other features of the C. €. C. C. amd’ conditions found in his na- tive mountains, The oldest boy, about 18, spoke briefly of th eimportance of quickly reclaiming the mountain Americans. In over 14,000 people of Knott county thers is but one foreigner, and he is a good American otizen. But I W. W. and bolsheviki are entering nearby localities, trying to turn’ the natives against the governmen. And these natives, being unsophisticated, believe what they are told.. Kentucky is very rich in coal in the mountains and these mines in developing Will soon have very undesirable workers. Incredible results have already been accomplished by Mrs. Lloyd in five years at Caney Creek. At present’in the Mt. Holyoke public school are 50 . boys pledged to remain_in the county to help in its uplift. The boys pleaded for a chance, “come and show us how, and before long we will give our country an- other Abraham Lincoln.” ¥rom Canterbury Plains Mrs. Lloyd and her party hastened to Plainfield, - where they spoke at the close of church school in the Congregational church, then on to South Manchester for a § o'diock service, and Plainville in the evening. In such busy. fashion, speaking five and six times some days. they have covered” a large territory and will con- tinue thus two weeks after this. In watching and listening to these Kentucky mountain boys, all were im- pressed by their quitk wit, polite ‘mans ners and easy use of good English. One of the most recent applicants at the C. C. C. C., aged 14, With sensitive mouth - quivering, pleaded: . “You-all needn't be afeered tew take me fn. I hain’t chawed 'baccy fer a month and 1 hain't drunk no moonshine since I was 12 years 614, nary a drop!” When such mighty transformations can' be accomplished in the short time covered by Mrs. Lioyd's work in Ken- tucky, it certainly is' well worth while.
