HOW ANOTHER DID IT
Mr. E. Lewis Evans, an old Clin-
ton boy, from New, Albany,
Ind„ writing to renew his subscrip-
tion, recalls an episode in his life as
a boy in Clinton as follows:
"I do not get to read the Record
as regularly as I would like to, on
account of my absence from home,
but when 1 do come home I get them
in bunches, my good wife likes to
look through them, but very carefully
lays then away for the wanderer
to read on his return.
In going through a ibuueh of then
this month, 1. came upon an item in
a recent issue that was interesting
indeed, it was under the caption
"How it was Done" from the pen of
a boy 1 .remember quite distinetly'in
short pants, a brother of your elistin-
guishecl ex -Mayor, Fred od Jackson. •

bridge I weulcl have stopped to have
a. chat a 'bout o+'d times and the hap-
penings since then, as my . travels
took me to Lethbridge on ,the way to
Calgary and Vancouver where 'Wu
]laid Dur convention this year.
The reading of the item brought
back a flood of memories, of passa-

mong them, was vividly restored •to

said was the easy, to wo 'kids at any -

came round the corner on its way to

I ded,.wo drove out' scene miles, and
piled off, and into the field, Tommy

bleeding and my eyes were sore from
the sweat and I could hardly see the

his, rough jocular way, said, "Boy, 1

I was doing my best and he called the
two neighbor's back and showed then
how they Were imposing on me, and
made them pull out what they had a
