This project was a collaboration between El Centro Hispano de Oceana, the Oceana County Historical and Genealogical Society, and Grand Valley State University funded by a Common Heritage grant from the United States National Endowment for the Humanities. The materials in this collection document the history of communities in Hart, Shelby, and Walkerville and explore themes of migration, labor, religion, family, belonging, national and cultural identities, regional, national, and international connections, and citizenship.</text>

, \'ith music, good reading and the colorful and stimulating conversation common
newspaperdom. Here, too, are held departmental and inter, departmental

Oceana county's red !)Jld, estimated to be from 10 to 14 million
pounds of cherries, biggest crop !n '
the hi5tory of the county, is now
in the last stages of the harvest.
For more than three weeks,
several thousands of pickers recruited from over the entire state,
and even more distant regions,
have been living in solitude in the
silent forests of shining trees, busy
from morning until evening, stripping the gorgeous fruit from fest ooned branches.
Whole families have migrated
north to cherryland, and go_ fr_om /

$400,000 Crop
This season, pickers are being /
paid the standard rate of thre~quarters cent a pound, except m
exce:ptional instances where a
premium has been added because
of a thinner crop, or other factors
which slow up the worker. Growers generally are receiving three
cents a pound, which means that
Oceana's cherry crop will m~an
something like $400,000 to the producers, in addition to the money
which will flow northward from
the sales of the canneries later in
the season.

the l er:e- of our fellows, How senseless the -ain and inane motives which
rule us!
One thought that keeps coming to
me is this: God cannot be ruled out
of His World.- His laws that contro:
the evaporation of calcined water
through millions of years cannot be
broken by His children. Great as are
these m arks of God's creation, n or:.e
of them have consciousness. None
can think and plan their lives. The::are merely things; wonderful a:id
beautiful , but t hings. Man is l.ik'=
God-he outlasts all time. These ca-e
wonders will pass, but eternity r..:..
still be in our hearts.
I cannot forget the hymn our fathers used to sing:
"When we've been there,
Ten thousand years,
Bright, shining as the sun ;
We've no less days to 3ing Gods
praise,
Than when we've first begun."

I came out of Carlsbad Caverns
with more Faith in God and more
Hope for Man.

The happiest person is the person who
entertains the most interesting thoughts.Dwight.

�"The Night Before' Christmas"
Over a century ago the poem "The
Night Before Christmas" was written
by Dr. Clement Moore for his two little
daughters. This delightful Christmas
classic was originally entitled "A Visit
From St. Nicholas." It first appeared
in print in 1823, just a year after it had
been written. But it was not written
for publication. It was printed without
the knowledge and consent of its au- h
thor. The success of the poem, however, was almost instantaneous. It has
steadily grown until now it has be- ~
come the _property of all children and
dominates at Christmas time.
The charm of the verse is not in its l
composition, but in the sentiment ,..a nd c
in the cheery holiday briskness that
animates it from beginning to end. It
recites the Santa Claus legend with a ;
simplicity and directness that are con- 1
vincing tq_ the wondering child. Despite
the fact tfrat it is only a charming little
jingle, it is a story, perfect in form, J
and has added color and character to i
the American Christmas. Every boy ,
and girl should memorize this poem. It will be just the thing if you are called ;
on to recite at a Christmas party. The
words are:

�HOME CARE SUCCESSFUL AFTER
SANATORIUM COURSE

With Properly Equipped Cottage, Northern Michigan Girl Finds Road to Recovery Through Course of Treatment Prescribed by State
Sanatorium Officials.

A little fresh air home, a miniature
sanatorium was rec ently built where only
one pa tie n't, Miss Genevieve Place, of
Hes peria, is awaiting recove r y fro~ a n
attack of tuberculosis which necessitated
her leaving the school room, where she
had be en teaching, last spring.
H er private "camp" is located on h_er
fath er's farm, just outside of_ Hesp eria,
right in the dooryard of th~1~ country

since her retu rn from the state sanatorium.

Out of the dus t I have craved no mo re
'I han a tree, and a lake of ripples,

And a house ondthe loaely shore.
And a hearth where a log is burming
In a ca.vern of fire and dreams.
And a \aook and a d1air and a table
And the licht of a candle's beams.
So here in the edce of the forest
I bought &amp; pie~e of tl:;e sod;
.Aud wit h stones and boards and mortar
I prayed with my lta.nds to God.
And now to t he door of m.r temple
Comes the c hant of the pin~ and the sea;
While slowly m y incen e rises
From the hearth ~o t he sks an d the tree.

This project was a collaboration between El Centro Hispano de Oceana, the Oceana County Historical and Genealogical Society, and Grand Valley State University funded by a Common Heritage grant from the United States National Endowment for the Humanities. The materials in this collection document the history of communities in Hart, Shelby, and Walkerville and explore themes of migration, labor, religion, family, belonging, national and cultural identities, regional, national, and international connections, and citizenship.</text>

This project was a collaboration between El Centro Hispano de Oceana, the Oceana County Historical and Genealogical Society, and Grand Valley State University funded by a Common Heritage grant from the United States National Endowment for the Humanities. The materials in this collection document the history of communities in Hart, Shelby, and Walkerville and explore themes of migration, labor, religion, family, belonging, national and cultural identities, regional, national, and international connections, and citizenship.</text>

                  <text>Collection contains images and documents digitized and collected through the project "Growing Community: A Century of Migration in Oceana County." This project was a collaboration between El Centro Hispano de Oceana, the Oceana County Historical and Genealogical Society, and Grand Valley State University funded by a Common Heritage grant from the United States National Endowment for the Humanities. The materials in this collection document the history of communities in Hart, Shelby, and Walkerville and explore themes of migration, labor, religion, family, belonging, national and cultural identities, regional, national, and international connections, and citizenship.</text>
