Several parties from the camp and others
from different points, have gone over into
Sespe valley on hunting trips, but have
met with little success. A party of three,
consisting of ex-Police Commissioner
Glass, Charles A. Morse and Jay B. Arm
old, returned yesterday after an unsuc-
cessful three-days' hunt, reporting no sign
of deer. Notwithstanding this, the valley
is swarming with doves, quail and smaller
game, while trout areeplentiful. When the
quail season opens there will be fine sport
to be had in the Sespe.
Among Los Angeles people who are here
or at the Matilda hot springs, three miles
lower down the canyon, are Jacob Adolf
and wife, Mrs. Simon Maier and children,
Henry Fuhrburg wife and child, As
sistant Fire Chief Ed Smith and
wife and Joseph Mailer and wife.
Mrs. Maier has for several days
been dangerously ill., but is now
convalescent. A week ago there were near
ly 200 people in camp, but the crowd has
thinned out appreciably. Several parties
from Los Angeles are due to arrive tomor-
row, and the evening dances in the pa
vilion. the card parties, etc.. will furnish
amusement for those socially inclined
while the enthusiastic sportsman climbs
the hills or walks down stream in the
canyons seeking for game or the gamy
trout.

1.-THE Alumni association of Throop Poly

interpret that inscrutable Providence that
has so suddenly and under such circum-
stances called one of their numbers from
these earthly scenes to the heavenly life.
1--WE esteemed Blanche Johnston as the
best of our number. She was kindly
classmate, a student who stood first and
graduated with the highest honors, and,
browning all, was the sweet and earnest
Christian spirit, and won our highest es-
TEEN.
we shared WltH neT the bright hopes
which centered in the new home she was
about to enter with the chosen companion
of her life. She seemed the best equipped
of all our number. Why should she fall
on the Threshold of such promising and
useful life? Believing that these earthly
hopes will be realized in heavenly fruit
ton, we can only answer: Our Heavenly
Father knows best and we bow to His
WILL
''She is still our classmate, our friend
and our ideal of an earnest, consecrated
life. We cherish her memory; here record
this tribute of our affection and assure
those upon whom this blow falls heaviest
of our deepest sympathy, and commend
them to the all-wise Father who careth
alike for His children in His earthly and
His heavenly home.
For the Alumni association.
