Former School Teacher Writes.

Chicago, 111., Oct. 10, 1917. Friend Hamilton: ' I came to city a week ago with my auto loaded with the fruits of Jasper Co. farm. Since here I have attended three important club meetings among which were the Indiana Daughters. Today I attend another important meeting more political. Tomorrow I am off again for the farm to gather the winter apples. Before Oct. Ist I had made from our little orchard in Gillam over 100 gal. of cider and I sold grapes and apples to many old Jasperites, among them Mrs. Warren Robinson, Mrs. Simon Thompson, Jr. and many Gillam folks. Then I enjoy ed the calls of old friends among them Mr. + and Mrs. Ad Parkison and daughter Jane, Miss Luella Robinson, the -John Ryan family, Mr. and Mrs. James Stevens and many others. I certainly had a fine stay through September on the farm. A month I had not spent there for more than 30 years. Regards to all Rensselaer friends, and ye editor and family. LAURA E. R. FISCHER. -
