tower by paying an extra fifty cents.
1T costs you something every time you
turn around and as the railroad very
kindly makes everyone get out of the
cars at the top and locks them up until
five minutes before the return trip is
made the passengers have ample time
to huddle around the stove in the
lunch room and keep on spending their
money. We we're ready to start down
again in five minutes after we got to the
top and so were many others but we
had to stay about an hour and half in
order to allow the passengers to be
separated from their money by the
lunch counter fiends and curio dealers
who sell verything in their line from
gold and silver ore to post cards at
about ten times what they are worth.
We are glad we went to Pixies Peak, for
when ones trip to Colorado does not
take it in others eye you with suspicion,
but for our part we would not give two
cents to make the trip again, and were
fully satisfied that we had been as near
heaven as we ever expect to be before
we die, and satisfied to live a little
nearer to the level of the sea just about
the ordinary elevation here in Iowa.
Ii you ever go to Colorado by all
means take this trip, but take your
lunch with you, leave your money all
below and then come back alive and be
satisfied. O. E. HULL.

has been in correspondence with the
head of the department at Ames has
received blue prints Of the plans of con-
struction for such culverts and the

divided into tribes, the Owl and Crows,
and each morning after listening to in
teresting stories Of Indian lore by Miss
Specht they were instructed in Indian
games and sports and the rivalry be-
tween the two tribes was very keen. 1t
was very popular diversion for the
young folks and made decided hit in
Leon. 1t is needless to say that all the
young Indians took great interest in the
appearance of the real Indians and the
pleasure of meeting seemed to be
mutual.

tache shaved of, put on different suit
of clothes and started out to see how
many people wonld recognize him. 1t
was the first time in nearly twenty

and even his dogs stuck up their brist-
