A MASS MEETING
(/P> Nevvsfeatures
WALAHALLA, S. C.—When 64
year-old W. M. Durham used to
move they’d have to add a school
teacher. At the place he left, they
would drop one.
That’s because he had no many
children—25 of his own and seven
that a daughter died and left. His
youngst now is less than a year
I
old.
That’s how it used to be. He
doesn’t expect to do any more
moving.
Until a few years ago he rented
farms and worked about on odd
jobs.
Now he has a house of his own
that he built with a Farm Secur
ity Administration loan. His farm
covers 218 acres. And he’s well
ahead on his payments. •
Despite his age, he works hard
and is sprightly. He raises on his
own land most of everything his |
family eats.
Durham has been married three
times. Eleven children are by his
present wife.
Seven of the elder children are
married off now. Four of his own
boys and four of the orphaned
ones he raised served in the armed
forces. One was killed.
But there are still quite a few
young ’uns about and Sunday af
ternoon usually finds Durham on
his porch, rocking the 10-month
old.
The U. S. national income for
1945 was estimated at $156,000,
000,000.
