Such noble characters as the late
General John B. Gordon accomplished
vast amount of good in bringing
the North and the South in closer
touch and friendlier relations
I deemed it one of the most delight
full experiences of my life when l met
and heard General Gordon speak at
the opera house on the Last Days
of the Co1federacy," one Saturday
evening in Roswell, and the next Sun
day afternoon at the Presbyterian
church.
His personality was intensely
charming, and he was a magnificent
persolification of the true type of a
Southern Christian gentleman. His
mortal eyes were the windows Of an
immortal soul that reflected beautiful
ly the nobility of his character, and
this immortal spirit has now entered
into rest with Robert E. Lee, Stone
wall Jackson and the innumerable
Great Beyond to he members of the
army of the Almighty Commander

De no tears, partings or strife.
The usefulness and talents of such
men as these does not conclude at
the grave, or when the soul vacates
it's temporary dwelling place on this
earth. 1t is simply a gain with them
in moving up higher, and with their
great learning they will be thus
equipped TO fill high positions in the
army of the King of Glory.
1t was indeed a happy thought on
the part of the members of Camp
Val Verde. Z. C. V, to have had the
privilege of honoring General Gordon
ut New Orleans by presenting him
with a blanket shortly before he left
this earth and to have had the beau

tation.
In passing let me say here that it
would be eminently fitting for the
members of Camp Val Verde to start
a fund for the erection of life-size
monument to the late Cap
tain Joseph G. Lea, the valiant Con
federate, and the man who blazed

Mexico and made possible the present
beautiful city. of Roswell.
This monument should be erected
in the court house plaza, and as eter
nal as the hills, showing this proud
fearless, defiant, yet gentle man.
Speaking in regard to this propos-
ed monument in the last few days, a
leading lawyer, a prominent mercan-
tile firm, and one Of the county Off
cials said that they would esteem ii

Make Your Milk Dishes
With Whole Milk.

You don't get the whole milk when
you buy from the milkman. The reason
is this:
=: Milk that stands awhile separates.
The butter fat rises and the solids fall.
So you get all the butter fat only when
served from the top of the can.
Thus you are surprised, when you
first cook with Van Camps, at the delici-
Gus flavor it gives to milk dish: You
wonder what we have added-wllat we
have done-to make the milk seem so
good.
We have added nothing at all. Van
Camps is simply the whole, rich milk,
Just as it comes from the cow. You get
all of the butter fat, all of the solids.
You never get them all in raw milk.
That flavor belongs to your cooking
You will get it every time in milk dishes
made with Van Camps.
We issue a Cook Book-free. 1t
tells how to make all sorts of milk
dishes, and gives the whole cost of each.
Ask us to send it to you.

It's Economical.

Van Camp's-with all of its good
ness-is cheaper than milkmans milk.
It's as thick as thick cream. So
thick that you add one part water for
coffee. Yet it doesn't cost half what you
pay your nilkman for cream.
Add two parts water and you have
rich milk. The cost of such milk, when
you buy Van Camps by the case, runs
about six cents per quart.
Then you have no waste-no milk
left over That saving in year is enor-
nous.
And Van Camps means cow i'll
your kitchen. Rich milk or cream al
ways on tap And always fresh-always
the same.
Yet such milk. in such shape. costs
you actually less than raw milk bought
as you want it.

Wild Grape Preserves.

Take six pounds of green wild grapes.
Cut them open on one side and carefully
remove the seeds. Weigh the fruit, and
allow an equal weight of sugar. Put the
prepared grapes in a kettle and pour on a
little cold water. just enough to show al
the top of the fruit. Boil skim. then
sprinkle over the fruit one-quarter of the
sugar allowed.
Bring to boil, again pressing the
grapes under the strip. but not breaking
them. Add more sugar and cook five
minutes, repeating the operation until
all the sugar is used. AS soon the
strip jellies, turn into small jars and seal
When cold the grapes should show dis
tinct in the clear jolly. Grape and elder
berry preserves are made In the same
way. allowing equal quantities of the
fruits or half as much grape as elder
berry. The flavor of the grape combines
we'll with the richness Of the elderberry,
which lacks decided zest.

For Children.

When immigrant babies arrive Ia
New York they are fed on Van Camps
Milk. Their food is prescribed by ply
sicians-by men who know the dangers
that Turk in raw milk.
Two-thirds the mortality of children
is due simply to germs in milk.
Raw milk, like raw meat, is an unf.
food. There is too much danger of germ
infection.
Let your children drink Van
Camps. They will come to love the
slight almond flavor, due to sterilization.
For that flavor means that the milk is
pure. Not germ of any kind-harm-
less or harmful-exists in Van Camps
Milk. -,
Van Camps Milk comes in S and 10
cent cans-at your grocer's. The first
can will convince you. After that, get
the discount allowed when you purchase
by the case. Then you'll have it always
on hand.

COLD FOR ICE CREAM PANTS
TOM GRANT OF CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE HAS TO WEAR EN-.
For a Flood Fell on Executive Com
mittee at the Crucial Moment
of a Session.

II is rather cold these mornings to wear
ice cream pants but when water trickles
through two floors and dashes on the
regular London smoke-color breeches one
must resort to some kind of subterfuge
while the London smokes are dried. And
then when the tailor puts pair Of spots
on the London smokes which about spoils
them for all other than minstrel pur-
poses 1t is, indeed, calamity.
So thinks Tom Grant, secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce. Mr.. Grant had
nice bit of news to give out the other
morning but it was spoiled along with
the London smokes, and now all that he
remembers of an important executive
committee meeting is that several. large,
pompous hotel men sat around him, look
ing like the senior senator's from Osh-
kosh, hands tucked into their vests, and
addressed each other in Addisonian Eng
fish.
Want Those Folks Here.
1t all came about because the Chamber
of Commerce is making efforts to get the
Railway Supply Manufacturers Associa-
ton to hold its next convention in
Washington Mr.. Grant has been work
ing hard with these people. both by cor
respondence and by actual contact with
matter to a. point where it looks as if
Washington would get them next time,
and as there are about 5000 delegates 1t
is necessary for everybody to get together
and work hard.
The railroad manufacturers never walk
Tom Grant says that at Atlantic City
they hired rolling chairs when they want
ed to cross the Boardwalk, and that as
for automobiles and taxicabs-Ach, LOoee.
they eat them alive. Therefore the Cham
her of Commerce has given notice that If
the railroad manufacturers come here the
residents of Washington will have to ride
in baby carriages goat carts, for the
motor cars will all be busy.
Hail to the Leak!
But to get at the real important part,
as the hotel men were sitting around. Tom
Grant noticed that something was the
matter. There were Mine Host Tally,
Peter Taylor, J. T. Devine, T. A Mckee.
s. A. Manuel E. L. Johnson, w. w. Dan
enhower and j. D. Cobb. Every now and
then one Of the innkeepers would start
suddenly and look about, as If something
had bitten him. Above, on the next floor,
there would be heard mufhed exclama-
tons coming from Robert Hickman. who
has the drama at his tongues end. 1t
sounded like a rehearsal of a most vfo-
lent murder scene, interspersed with ex-
pressions like these:
where's 1t coming FROM?
Gosh I'm wet from head to foot.
Look out, now. Lady Macbeth's pic
ture is simply dripping"
Finally Tom Grant saw what was the
matter and ran for his umbrella, and just

We have diaries now in five states,
and we are building more all the time.
We milk 10000 Holstein COWS.
Yet we advertise in but few cities.
The demand from those cities where
Van Camps is known often exceeds Our
supply.
This demand begins slowly in each
new city. People are hard to convince.
Then few people try it; then those
people tell others. The demand, when
it starts. spreads like wildflre.
