MISS SCHULTZ AND MRS. HILL
TELL OF GOOD TIMES ON COAST
San Diego, Calf, Aug. S, 'O7.

San Diego, Calf, Aug. S, 'O7.
Dear Record:
While think this a beautiful place,
and enjoy its many attractions i'm
mensely, still for one, will stand by
Dear Old Colorado.
What appeals to me about Colorado
is the fact that we have no f1eas.
These pests nearly worry the life out
OF me. They certainly know I am not
a native here. Mrs. Hills is going to
send you a little poem she thinks
quite applicable.
1 have tried to beg or buy her off
from sending it as a joke on me, but
have been unsuccessful in my efforts,
80 will have to submit to having the
Taught on myself. While the poem is
not original with me, still as Sa-
mantha Allen says, "Them's my senti-
ments."
Mr.. and Mrs. George Taunt and
daughter, Grace, called on us the
other evening and of course we were
very glad to see some old "Canonites."
This climate has proven very bene-
fetal to all of them and they like it
very much here. Yesterday they went
with us to La Jolla, and we certainly
had a lovely day. La Jolla is one of the
most picturesque and incest places
that have visited as yet. We all en-
joyed the surf bathing very much
there and hope to be able to spend
another day there before returning.
Also spent very nice day at Coro-
nado and the Tent City, about a week
ago, but think La Jolla much the
prettier place. Am thinking some of
taking a little ocean trip but am un-
decided as yet whether l want the SEN
sation of being sea sick or not.
Personally, I think this trip has
been very beneficial to me and
think that shall be recruited for an
other years good work. The first thing
that Mrs. Hills said to me today was
that had good beach complexion" +"
Will probably be home between the
18th and goth of this month.
Now l shall leave the rest as Mrs.
Hills share and am sure that 1t will
be more interesting than mine.
Thanking you for the Record which
is a source of much pleasure to us
all, and wishing you continued pros
perity, am yours most respectfully,
GRACE SCHULTZ.
A poem sent me by a Canon girl,
now visiting Long Beach:
Georgia was a southern girl
From southern Tennessee,
Who came to California, the pretty
sights to see.
The first thing she saw was a Califor-
mia flea,
And 1t came marching to Georgia.
Chorus
"Hurrah! Hurrah!" said the mosquito
to the flea,
"Hurrah! Hurrah! let us have a spree,
You bite her on the ankle and I'll
bite her on the knee"
So they came marching to Georgia."

Dear Record:
You must know full we'll how I love
every hill and river, every park and
Cañon City record., 1907-08-15

peak of Colorado, The only, the one
land, beloved of the sun and bereft
of the rain" and, since she is my first
love, how I enjoy thinking over her
many charms, but for a few minutes
am going to endeavor to imagine
myself "a native daughter of the gold
en- west" and try to tell you some
thing of San Diego by the matchless
bay, as it would appear to such a
one.
First, however, 1 want to speak of
the pleasure of meeting friends here
from all over Colorado, but especially
Canon. One day last week I took
lunch with the Keltons, who are do
ing very we'll indeed and have an ex-
ceedingly nice home on Golden Hill
Afterwards we called on Mrs. Sheets.
who, as she usually does, started me
to thinking. Mrs. sheets is at the
beautiful home of DR.. Averill, who is
sister of j. E. Brown of Canon and
has fine practice.
l am told that DR.. Butler who used
to live in Canon. also has an office
in the Granger block. Probably he
wouldn't remember me, at all, but l
IOlucLluSl ludI uoCo W SoAoAuCl AiAi
very handsome man.
Glad is a mild way of expressing
how l felt today to see Mrs. Schultz,
Grace and the small brothers. We
talked without commas, periods or
any kind of pause, for two hours.
We were all glad we were here.
San Diego is like Canon in having
the most varied resources, the bright
est financial prospects, the most ideal
climate, and the most hospitable peo-
pie of any city in the state.
| The new railroad, which is to open
up a rich and fertile valley-the I'm
perial-and to place this thriving city
in closer communication with the
east, will alone be matter of i'm
mense importance to San Diego.
Then the recognition of this har-
boris many excellences, by our gov
ernment, will surely result in great
benefit in either war or peace.
Socially, San Diego resembles the
eastern towns in many points. 1t has
fine schools, thriving churches, and a
large and excellent library with a
Carnegie building where eight ladies
are kept busy as librarian or. assist
ants.
There are many charming places
near here for picnics. Grace has told Of
Coronado, the ideal, and La Jolla,
the beautiful. Point Lama, light house
wireless telegraph station and theo-
sophical grounds. Old town with its
associations Of Ramona, (who has be-
come as important a factor in Cali
fornia geography as Pocahontas is in
the history Of Virginia.) The trip
over the line into Old Mexico, with
its custom house experiences, its arena
for bull fights, its fleas, the old Mission
trip, some ocean trips down to En-
senada the capitol OF lower California,
are some Of the attractions that no
one wants to miss.
This county has many mines Of
precious gems, and like those in Fre-
mont county, they are OF great beauty.
In the winter the rivers around here
are right side up, but in summer they
are upside down, and people are only
beginning, as in Colorado, to realize
the immense value OF the abundant
subterranean water supply.

David Booth, highly respected and
independent farmer living near Farm
ington, was confined to his home last
week on account Of gathering in his
head, This is the first time that he has
been sick in twenty years. This man
lives in the house he was born in fifty
six years ago and has never lived in
any other house.
In the neighbOrhood Of Willow Grove
there lives a cOlored man known by all
in that section as "Cyclone Bill' the
snake charmer He wears coat trim
med with wide red tape which runs
from the collar to the bottom with three
rows of large brass buttons. He told
the writer that this fancy outfit attracts
the attention Of the snakes and helps
him to charm them. He claims that
he has charmed more snakes than any
man in America. He is thinking Of
going to Africa in the spring with a
snake dealer of New York City to charm
snakes in the jungles there.

GOOD ROADS EXTENDING
Farmers See the Benefit is OF Road I'm
prOyements.

The experiment of building perma-
nent roads has been put in operation
over in Maryland. under the manage
ment of State Road Euglneer, who
plans all the work and the way it is to
be accomplished. w. w. Crosby, who
occupies that position, recently said
that there will be more road making in
/ Maryland this summer than ever before
in the history OF the State. He said;
"When we fret made the new roads
OH the Eastern Shore and in the various
counties Of the Western Shore, the farm
ers did not paymuch attention to them.
Any road is a good enough road for a
farmer in the summer time. This win
ter, however. the farmer began 10 see
the difference, and just as soon as he
realized what an advantage real road
was over a mud hole he began to get
busy petitioning the County Commits
sioners for more road repairs This has
caused more applications for State aid in
building and repairing roads than ever
before in the history of rOad-making.
There is but little work being done
now under the supervision Of the State
Engineer on account OF the conditions
of the roads. On the Eastern Shore
some work is being done. A road is
being built in Caroline county, near
Denton, and another small stretch is
being built in Dorchester county Ap
plication has already been made for
State Aid for roads in Worcester and
WicomicO counties, and as conditions
are ripe for commencement of the
work, Mr.. Crosby expects that they
will be started very shortly.
On the Western Shore there is little
work being done just now, but some
wOrkmen are pottering around in Mont
gomery, Carroll and Baltimore cOun-
ties. Mr.. Crosby learns that there are
many applications before the County /
Of a number of counties
for roads, which petitions have not as
yet been acted upon. County Commits
have already put in claims for
State aid, however that will insure
more being started than ever before.
1t is expected that work will be re-
sumed shortly on the New Washington
The first stretch to betsckled
will be about seven miles-between
in Howard county and Laurel
in Prince Georges county. A crusher
is now being erected near Waterloo,
and upon its completion, of the roads
have assumed proper shape, work will
be started at once.
Mr.. Crosby says that Baltimore county
alone has applied for road repairs and
road building that will total 800, 900 this
year Just how much of this.amount
