THE SUNNY SOUTH
Blue Uaters Rejecting the
Dreamy Skies.
IL -.0-.-5-
(PriZe.)

wv HEN think of the ocean it Is
wv as 1 have known it under
summery skies at midwinter. The
great waves increasingly roll in
upon the wide, white beach strewn
with myriads Of tiny sea crea-
lures. Inside the bar OR 'key" the
blue waters of the bay ripple quiet
ly in the dazzling sunlight, while
white winged boats and pleasure
craft of every description drift
lazily here and there. The tall
royal palms; the cocoanut palml
with their hairy trunks, and othet
tropical trees stand out against the
deep blue Of the southern sky.
Blossoming orange groves fill the
air with delicious perfume.
All the dreamy Florida days come
back to me with the thought of the
ocean standing out in such sharp
contrast with this Minnesota March
day on which I write that our topic
suggests to me all that is peace
full and beautiful.

were written. Nature stories of
birds and animals, particularly
pets, stories of excursions to the
woods and different points of in
terest, sleigh rides, .ice-boating and
skating, Christmas, favorite studies
and books, bears and fairies, gave
variety to the deluge of papers
which proved that Juniors are fond
of having their own way. Stories Of
the growth or manufacture of OBJ
jects were among the papers, but
as rule these were not interest
ing; they lacked "color" or life.
Sometimes it is very hard to say
what one wants to. These funny
statements were made: "Who
laughs first, laughs LAST; ''Print-

usually large part of the papers.
To some, comparatively few, the
bottom Of the ocean offered scenes
for charming fairy. tales; here were
caves and sunken shiploads of pre-
cious stones, gardens of gorgeous
flowers, fish and beautiful mer-
maids, in fact there was no end
to the material at hand for pretty
tales of Neptune's kingdom. The
ocean was also considered the
source of life and beauty on land,
as without it all land would be
desolate; the treasure house of nat
ural science, concealing many un-
known things; fine swimming
place, of which all Juniors who
have seen the ocean gave eloquent
testimony. This expression was
used of the ocean: .''It has a carved

Special to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Jefferson, Nov. 20.-'rhe company OF
civil engineers who have been running
lines from Des Moines to Jefferson,
reached here yesterday. having COM
pleted their preliminary survey, which
will enable the company to estimate
the cost of construction. The survey
enters Green county at Angus, thence
to Rippey, north to Grand junction and
west to Jefferson. The distance to
Des Moines by the route followed is
about IS miles.
In an interview with the Bee, Mr..
Cummins. engineer in charge of the
survey, while In Jefferson said:
Our company is not prepared to
do much of the talking yet. We are
waiting for the communities thru
which we pass to show their inclina
tions towards our project. We do
wish 1t understood. however. that this
Is no street car line, but rather an
electric railway. for freight and
passenger service. We shall own our
own private right-of-way every mile
of the distance. and will not folio "
the roads as has been suggested by
someone. In fact our construction Of
track will be just as good as any
steam railway construction, and will
probably cost us more. There will
not be a single grade of more than
per cent between here and Dies Moines.
That means the steepest grade will be
so feet to the mile. We have not en-
countered quite that much yet. We
will hot. use a curve OF more than
per cent IL we can help 1t. That means
that it will take nearly half mile to
turn right angle. Our right way
will be 100 feet wide thru the
country.
I'VE realize that we cannot hope to
succeed unless we can make good time.
A four or five hour service between
here and. Des Moines would not appeal
to the travelling public. We shall aim
to make as good time as the railways.
and we can do 1t and stop every mile
to let on or let off passengers. Perry
and Jefferson will be the only large
towns we shall strike on the route.
The figures we shall be able to make
as the result of this survey will deter
mine Wnethef we Snall go at tnlS
enterprise right away or not. We are
not in the position OF people who are
forcing their way thru here by
condemnation OF land, etc. We ex-
pect more or less cooperation from
the people. For instance. when we
enter Jefferson. we shall either have to
get a street vacated for our line, or
buy lots. as we shall own and con-
