Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1897-01-30
SATURDAY SALAD.


Certainly one needs to go abroad to
learn the news at home! In the holiday
number of the Buffalo Express, December
10, 1896, appears most dainty sketch Of
ny Land" written by Mary II. Harrour
and most beautifully and appropriated y
illustrated by her son, MIR. P. e. Harroun
Every line tells of the writer's tender love
for the land that gave her added years
and her desire to make the light Of the
dear old town to s'shlne,in far places.
The sketch ends with charming folk
story, prettily told.
By the way, the Spanish and Indian
people are full of these pretty legends and
folk stories. Many beautiful stories are
written and recounted ct the Tertulia
Idiomatica Why does not that little
circle take upon itself the duty of pre-
serving those quaint myths and legends
Mr.. G. f. Lummis has done much for us
in that line, but his heart and hands and
interests are transferred to California.
What Hans Christian Anderson did for
Denmark and Norway, Bjornsterne Bjorn-
sen for Norway, Lang in his Fairy Tales,
and in our own Anglo-Saxon, Tennyson in
his "Idyls of the King" the greatest book
after the Bible and Shakespeare, may be
done here in this cradle of ancient races,
Aztec, Spanish, Pueblo, and the result
would surprise the world.
