THE TOWN ACROSS THE RANGE.
By Alta wrenwick Brown.

Near the mouth of the Black canon
Stands the mammoth state steel
bridge,
Sentineled by rugged 'dobes,
Rising nobly, ridge by ridge
Where the Gunnison's clear waters
Rush in merriment along,
From their many mountain sources,
Silvery as the Indian song.
OF Chipeta, who, they tell US,
Ger the valley, wild and wide,
As the ruler of her dusky
Indian people did preside.
wild and Woody West" they called it,
On the far-off Western Slope,
Peopled with the deer and grizzly,
Buffalo and e:-telope.
Once, secure within her wigwam,
There the squaw's inspiring glance
Rested on her faithful kinsmen,
Spurring them to war or dance.
Fearing not the white mans presence,
knowing not the white mans bow
Nor the fateful force he fetches
With his greed and dynamo.
Little thought the happy red man
While afar upon hunt,
Satisfied with natures trophies,
pipe cf peace" and stolid "grunt,"
That the paleface, stronger, Drawer,
Never satisfied, alas,
In carriage without horses
Meant to mount the Marshall pass.
Yes; the paleface, stronger, drawer,
Than the fiercest braves who fight,
Far outfaced the prairie schooner
And outdid the dynamite.
With his world-defying wisdom,
Keener, greater, so to speak,
Than the Curecanti Needle,
Than historic old Pixies Peak;
With his dauntless disposition,
Fearless and progressive meant,
Now the town of Delta lies.
To divide the continent.
Civilizing, as tho weighty
Irrigation problem solved,
Gunnison and Uncompahgre
Valley and all it involved.
In this Uncompahgre valley,
Meath the Colorado skies,
South of glorious Grand mesa,
Now the town of Delta lies.
And the flourighing peach orchards
And the sugar beet fields cope
With the quaking asp and cedars
| OF the mesas mighty slope.
Delta, land of milk and honey,
Beautiful with blossoms fair,
Wealthy in thy vegetation
And climatic glories rare.
Bright as Colorados sunshine,
Steady as her mountains grand,
In the springtime of their manhood
Do thy loyal laddies stand.
Fairer than the morning primrose
And with heart of molten gold,
Like their country's matchless sunsets
Are thy maidens manifold.
Lovely new land of the Rockies,
Ger the bloom-stArred, snow
capped range,
With thy hospitable handshake
Not a stranger can feel strange,
But at last, his visit ended,
When he seeks his Eastern home,
Often will his thoughts watt back
ward
From wherever he may roam,
To the fresh trout that the clear lakes
OF the giant penks afford,
And the crisply brown fried turkey
| OF the festive ranch house board.
To the scenery and climate,
Grand and healthful. never strange,
And the churches, homes and people
or the town across the range.

IN MEMORIAM

Della Geraldine Kline was born in
Franklin county, near Dows, Iowa, May
20, 1894. She departed this life just as
the sun was rising on June 4, 1913.
About nine years ago she came to Colo
RADIO and the San Luis valley and has
since made this her home. Graduating
from the Monte Vista High School in
tho class Of 1912, she taught rural
school last year. 1t was here that she
displayed, as she did elsewhere, her un-
selfish and self-sacriticing character.
Her plan and purpose seemed to be to
give to the children not only what was
required by the school board, but many
things not specified in the curriculum,
but which tended to make character.
Changing in the lines the personal
pronoun, we may say Of her:
l cannot say will not say
That she is dead-she is just away;
With CHEEKY smile and wave Of her
She wandered into another land.
Her pastor spoke of hers as life that
brought sunshine into the home when
she was born. 1t was as the coming OF
new day. But, like the storm which
broke over the forest, there came the
struggle with disease and then death.
So, as the oak was broken but had its
scar covered by the ivy, just so will
love-her love and that OF her family
cover the wound left by her going
Hers was a life OF unselfsh and real
worth-worth to the church. the League,
the Sabbath school, the community, to
God. Her friends can say OF her:
And still her silent ministry
Within my heart hath place,
And when on earth she walked with me
And met me face to face.
Her life is forever mine;
What she to me hath been
Hath left henceforth its seal and sign
Engravcn deep within.

containing nineteen head of horses

horses could be inspected upon their
arrival at Leon and tie inspection

President Joseph Smith and wife
arrived Thursday from their home at
Independence, Mo-, to attend General
Conference now in session. Presi-
dent Smith was for many years a
resident of Lamont and consequently
has a very large acquaintance here
who are always glad to see him; in
fact we might say that his friends
are numbered by his acquaintance,
for very few if any ever resided here
who were held in higher esteem than
Joseph Smith. This would apply to
those outside of the church of which
he is the venerable president as well
as those who are members.-Lamon
