What though the roa1 was dusty and the sun beat down and humanity in the cities was perspiring with heat, and growing in mental depression. Out here ill the country field after field of green grass moved and beckoned and nodded greeting to these little people, and the white daisies seemed to applaud and the wind through the green clad branches of the trees played orchestral accompaniment.
 Going on a gypsy outing My. what fun! Bright eyes sparkled; rosy lips parted; ruddy cheeks dimpled with smiles, and silvery voices in childish treble sang songs of gladness. for hearts were happy and life was in the flood of its morning.
 So along the country road passed tn S juvenile army with now and then an eye on the commissary wagon ill the depths of which reposed the ingredients for cold lemonade and luscious sand wiches.

 It was 2:30 p. m. when the little gypsies' left East Canaan. It was four when they reached the arches. The sun was casting golden pencils of light through the shaded woodlands, and it was 6:30 o'clock by the pastors watch when the homeward journey was begun. This time it was through the lots and along the river and the sun had sunk to rest beyond Canaan mountain, when the "gypsies" reached home,

Earthquake Shock Awoke the Natives
and Their Wives at an EARLY
Hour on Sunday
Morning.
ADOBE HOUSES CRACKED
Considerable Damage to crockery and
Chimneys, But Shock Was
Of But Very Slight
Character.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, May %
Sunday morning slumber Of this city
was disturbed by a violent rocking OF
the earth, which lasted apparently
about two seconds, although the seis-
mograph at the State University re-
corded disturbance of thirty sec
onds.
The earthquake was quite sharp and
caused considerable damage to crock
cry, chdmneys and old adobe houses
The tremor was local being confined
within a radius of fifty miles.
Slight damage is reported from the
towns of Bingham and Garfield The
shock occurred at 1928 a. m. and was
followed by two other shocks, one at
S:3S a. m. and the other at 11:24.
Scientists explain today tflat the
recent slight earthquakes felt here
were caused by the slipping of q
great section at the base of the Wa
sach mountains. They expect few
more slight earthquakes in the next
few months, but declare it will be
impossible for any of them to assume
dangerous proportions.
