J.

Pennington- who sold and abandoned the farm in 1920. Strings of these old rock fences along thelbench fields still re main as intact as when thev were constructed, manyof them more than half a centuryago. A enoUD of the Jato Mr- Pen. nington's children recently paid a visit to their childhood home. Two -jof these, Mrs.

Laura Mc-Caleb of Lindsay, Okla. and Mrs. Martha White of Sallisaw, were married in the old log residence, now long gone. During their courting days they had a practice of sitting on a huge boulder near the house and there doing their courting. This rock was dubbed "The Sparking Rock" as in those days courting was sometimes referred to as sparking.

These two elderly ladies readily found while visiting the place the sparking rock in itsraccustomed place and had their pictures made sitting on the rock that undoubtedly could "tell some romantic tales if it possessed the faculty of speech. Mrs. White, -the youngef, was married there in 1911 and Mrs. McCaleb about nine years earlier. This was the first visit here for either in more than 40 years.

They had two questions they constantly asked while driving over the-hills irr the-vicinjtjr of their former home, "Why is the country so grown up in and 'Where are all the These questions were understandable since years ago the country was more thickly settled and many farms, now abandoned, kept the countryside from being so overgrown with timber.
