R L Coughing In Church But all smiths do not sit in their forges and await the farmer and his horses. Some of them have be. come itinerants, and carrying their equipment on a trailer they motor around the farms and shoe horses, repair plows and other implements in the farmyard. If they are lucky they may be able to find a spread. ing chestnut tree under which to do the job. _ Devonshire is still the home of many â€" picturesque smithys with thatched roofs, and their presence in a village of thatched houses is often only announced to the visitor by the musical rhythm of hammer upon anvil. _ Recently a rural Dev. onshire blacksmith was invited to fashion a highly ornate grille for the Prince of Wales. The trained blacksmith, however is something more than a mere shoer of horses. He can fashion ornamen. tal iron gates, fireplaces, door fittings, grilles and other things. Fancy iron. work has always been a feature of the Eng ish blacksmith‘s education under a seven years‘ apprenticeship system, and a great deal has been done in recent years to put this branch of art before the public. Re. cently the Rural Community Counâ€" cil of Essex prevented the shutting down of several forges by sending expert workers to instruct the local smiths in the finer aspect of blackâ€" smithing. Nearly every English gentleman‘s home is approached by gates, and there has been a great revival of decorative gatework of much delicacy and beauty. The smith is not the mighty man ’he was in Longfellow‘s day, but in the mass he is but a shadow of his former self. The automobile has almost driven the horse off the streets in the big cities at any rate, and the profession of blacksmith used to be synonymous with horses. Probably no trades in the world have lost so much to marchâ€"of time as that of the blacksmith and the harness maker.
