rocky hillside pastures had shrunk
alarmingly.
The enormous fireplace, which
with its generous wood-storage re-
cess fills the entire end wall of the
living-room ell, is built around a
metal shell. Grilles at the bottom
suck cold air into the heat cham-
ber, other grilles at the top broad-
cast the resultant heatwaves.
In a conventional house, one
built after an accepted architectur-
al pattern, the furnishings are some-
what standardized, and nobody de-
parts too radically from the com-
monplace. In a house evolved by
easy stages from a barn, imagina-
tion can run riot. Exposed beams
are an invitation to all sorts of ex-
periments in decoration.
The solidity of the structure calls
for wrought-iron hinges and the
sturdiest of detail. You are not
surprised when you find old-fash-
ioned sad-irons doing duty as book-
ends, or a combination bookshelf
and hanging lamp cleverly con-
structed from a wagon-hoop set up
on end with a solid base of wood
and two shelves spanning the inside
of the circle. The spinning-wheel
and the wooden dough-bin look as
if they had been born and brought
up in front of the fire-place.

time on his turning-lathe, an enor-
mous affair bolted securely to a
heavy work-bench in the basement.
In the two months that he has had
the lathe, he as turned out an as-
tonising amount of furniture.
There is a long bench, reminis-
cent of the ones you used to sit on
in Sunday School when you squirm-
ed through the Ten Commandments
in the stiffest of starched white
pique. The spindles and stretchers
were turned on the lathe. The table
which tips up on request to form
another bench, the coffee table, the
substantial armed chair and a num-
iture, are all products of Gene's
spare hours this summer.
Last time we visited the hill, we
followed our noses hopefully to the
kitchen, where things seemed to be
progressing nicely. It was chilly [
outside, and the kitchen was de- |
lightfully warm. Mrs. Farley added
a fourth story to the steamer which |
was bubbling away on, the oilstove,
popping eight ears of corn into it
and adjusting the lid.
The lonesome little love-bird, a
sad little widow in her cage in the
corner, made a few tentative passes
at her reflection in her mirror, and
started to growl.
I was startled. I never heard a
love-bird growl so fiercely. There
was a whine to the sound as well
as a deep guttural. I said, ‘Does

More Men Take
Examinations
Enough Single Men
For Present Quotas
Sixty-one men have been called
for their second physical examin-
ation by Draft Board No. 1 of Wyo-
ming. The October contingent for
induction will include men from
this group who pass the examin-
ation.
Among them are Glenn Bulford
of Trucksville, William P. Weiss,
now of New York City, David Clark
Andrews of Noxen, and Harry L.
Kropp and Daniel F. Chesney of
Wilkes-Barre, all formerly of
Trucksville. Those from Dallas are:
Ceci H. Ross, Denzil J. Morrett and
Ralph Emerson Hoyt; from Shav-
ertown, Daniel D. Evans and Vin-
cent F. Spaciano.
Officials of the board estimate
that there will be enough single
men to fill quotas from this area
until the early part of the year.
If Congress passes legislation per-
mitting the induction of the 18 to 20
year old. group of men, the board
I quotas for about two months thus
delaying the induction of married
men for the same period.

HEAR THE ROOSTERS CROW
Broilers
We hope you've been watching what is happening
in the broiler business. If you have, you know it is
- booming. Right now it is almost impossible to buy baby
chicks. None of the big hatcheries are promising anything
before November. Luckily we are going to have 9,000
baby chicks before that to supply the local men who are
in the broiler industry.
Here are some of the new fellows who are entering
this profitable business. Jimmie Ryan of Harvey's Lake
is now raising 600 broilers and expects to put in enough
more shortly to make 1,200. Frederick Weiss of Beau-
mont has built fine new coops and is raising 1,000
Richard Puterbaugh of Shavertown has 600.
Out Noxen way, Clarence Turner has 1,800, Nat Straley
has 800, and Mr. and Mrs. Albert Ruff have 2,500 coming
along nicely. Over at Hunlock’s Creek Jimmie Kibler has
2,500 birds, and in Dallas Howard Risley is raising 2,000.
The latter part of this week or early next Stanley
Moore will have 2,400 ready to sell.
This business is no gamble; you, too, can make profits
in the broiler business and enjoy the work.
