and almost IN touch with the timber
line, we walked half a mile in the
rain to the Mendoza silver mine.
1t was raining and very cold. We
had on our overshoes and heavy
winter wraps, and when we reach
ed the entrance to the mine, a cold
blast of damp air struck US, which
made rs draw our wraps closer,
while our teeth fairly chattered.
Going back 1900 feet below the
surface the air grew colder and
colder till our breath went up in
clouds of smoke like it often does
on a chill December day. Our
guide showed us a vein of silver
about foot thick, which dipped at
this point so that a shaft 200 feet
deeper had to be put down. We
did not go down, but we thought
of the poor miner whose life is
spent in the cold damp earth in the
dismal shaft, 700 feet from the
surface, where the sun can shine
and warm and gladden. the earth.
We went back cheerfully to the
daylight, though we knew it was
raining and cold enough outside.
Hosting our umbrellas and taking
up our skirts, we started back
through the mud and rain, fear
full all the time lest our pictures be
taken in this dreadful plight. But
alas for the man with the cameral
The dampness and cold had proven
blessing in disguise-the kodak
fiend had frozen. We felt relieved
when we reached the car at last,
and sat down to eat our lunch in
peace, knowing that our pictures
as we looked at Silver Plume
would not be scattered broadcast
over the land for everybody to
laugh at and only a few to pity.
Suddenly as we waited we heard
the shrill sweet sound of children s
voices, and looking out of the cal
window We saw four little children
thinly clad, standing in the rain
and singing, thus helping the pool
