buy paint and OF! separately, and
at proper prices for each, then mix
them together. i. & NJ. sells more

From the Land Of Flowers, an
Interesting Letter from &
Highlander.

Highlander.
Gilroy, Gal,
Dear Recorder:
| incIose sub scripcion 70 paper,
the current year. And desire to
say am greatly interested in the
efforts TO collect and preserve tie
history of Monterey and county.
Annals Of any country and people
are inter esting and worthy Of pre-
servation. If the gathering of
these materials into a truthful
record is neglected longer the re-
suit will be disappointment. The
oldest inhabitants" are passing the
boundaries forever. Memory fails
death is certain.
All know now why the name
Monterey was selected for the coun-
ty seat. Can some one tell who
suggested that name? How APP
propriate it seems "mountain- Of
light"
The Spaniards made very happy
selection Of names Gu the Pacific
coast in old Mission days. Here is
a Monterey by the ocean where
their first ships put into narbor.
Many of theso cid missions
stretching from San Diego to Son
ONO on the ancient "highways Of
the King El Canine Real" IS the
SpaniardS called it. With the mis-
sion building tie history Of Cali
fornia began.
The name of The field Poppy,
now rcsplendent in color over these
fields, is "Copo-de-oro'-the cup of
gold-truly golden in color and
goblet i'll form, no other name
more appropriate,
Mr.. Jack Cleek should give you
the side light history Of the running
of Highlands boundary lines. He
was with Thomas Campbell when
making the survey. Mr.. &. gave
me a very interesting account Of
that work when was in Virginia
last.
| retain a vivid recollection Of
my first visit to Monterey. The new
court house dazzled my eyes with
its red brick walls d, great white
columns, as viewed from the hotel
on the Trimble corner where my
father left me for. Il while, too
young and timid to pace the street
and take in other sights-now find
myself not old enough to give facts
concerning the birth of Highland.
But do remember something Of the
characters of that time.
Interesting to NE were the old
Legal lights, brilliant lights in
the profession. One Of the. COM
pliments by them to Tie county
was that the people, the jurymen,
were the most intelligent met with
in their itinerary. So other per-
sons of the Valley of Virginia seek
ing trade, found Highland farmers
nosted too we'll to suit them.
hope Mountaineering may
grow higher and brighter and more
beautiful as it grows older and
wiser-that its walls and founda-
tiOns always be made stronger
than that first school building on
the hill, whose bricks were soft and
laid on chestnut log footings.
Hope also that the forests on the
highlands about you mag not only
be preserved but strengthened lest
you become prey to the storm king
and to the grcater dread water
famine.
The mountains are how dwarfed
by the continual timber cutting on
their sides, beauty destroyed, end
land values lessened.
. There now, this flavOrs Of advice
unaskcd. The way is clear to stop

PLANS FOR A
BIG EXCURSION
Odd-FeIlows Of State to Have
Annual Celebration-Tripto
West Point This Year.

Plans are being rapidly perfected for
a great Odd-Fellows' excursion to be run
from this city to West Point on August
18th.
The trip will be OF the nature of an
experiment, which. If it proves successful.
will be made an annual event among the
Odd-Fellows of the State. 1t is planned to
have each year a similar gathering Of the
clans at some resort for a day of pleas
ure. The scheme, it is thought will meet
with great favor. and doubtless will be
taken up and perpetuated.
The arrangements for the present ex-
cur.ion are in the hands of a joint COM
rnittee Of all the Richmond and Man
chester lodges. This committee, repre-
senting thirteen lodges. three Rebekahs
and three encampments, met Friday night
and entered upon its work. Mr.. N. c..
BEDFORD was chosen chairman
While the excursion is local to the ex-
tent Of plans, etc, it is by no means to
be confined to Richmond. Odd-Fellows
from all over the State are expected to
attend Grand Master w. D. Hill. Of
South Boston, will be along and will make
a speech. Quite a number will be over
from Norfolk and other places.

feel sure that he will be refused. Don't
let that keep you away. Go and try. The
greater number of negroes refused the
ssron ger it will make our case.
In many places the registra ton will
only last one day. and in hardly any
place save the large cities will it last
over three or four days. Don't wait, but
Just as soon as you hear that the regis
trarion has begun, go and try, and then
so and report to the tally-keeper whether
you registered or whether you were re-
fused.

their services by the people in every mag
