ERECT SMALL CHURCH AFTER
VOW MADE CENTURY AGO
CRESCO, Iowa., Dec. 19 (/p)—A
vow given at the time Napoleon was
conducting his Russian campaign,
eventually resulted in the erection of
one of the small churches in the
world.
The mother of John Gaertner, a
French soldier who was with Napo
leon’s forces at the burning of Mos
cow' vowed that if God would safely
return her son she would build a
church. The son returned but his
mother, because of fiancial difficulties
was unable to carry out her plan. Her
granddaughter, Mrs. Mary Anna Hu
ber, how'ever, took dver the vow, and
the result was the building of St. An
thony’s chapel.
WITH COAL SHORTAGE HERE
CULM BANKS ARE USED
-«A«
HARRISBURGH, Pa., Dec. 19 (#)—
Waste clum banks once regarded as
unfit for use are being generally util
ized with the increased demand for
fuel as result of the suspension of
hard coal operations.
A culm pile, near Honesdale, which
is estimated to contain least ’ 1,000,000
tons, is to be removed by a Scranton
firm under permission granted by the
State Sanitary Water Board. The
firm plans to remove the culm and
ship it to tidewater without any fur
ther treatment.
Through the early years of anthra
cite mining in the Pennsylvania fields
no attempt was made to salvage the
fuel dumped out in the wast piles.
Huge banks of culm accumulated in
many places.
From these came the river coal
which has been marketed by dredgers
on streams flowing from the coal re
gion. In recent years many of the j
coal companies have washed out the j
good coal from the culm banks and |
sold it.
