Coldren Bros. had arranged to
bring a party of homeseekers
into this state at a very early
date, and also that it would be
necessary to get a low rate of
transportation to get the home

also suggested on account Of the
central locality of Amarillo that
that city would be a suitable To-

suggested a date not late than

a permanent organization. This
suggestion was then put in the

The invitation also added by Mr..
Seth B. Holman of Amarillo
who endorsed Mr.. Hamlin's
idea, and which was also sane
Toned by our president, B. d.
Oldham. Mr.. Hamlin then add
ed to his argument by saying
that the reason that he suggest

fact of its locality and being
convenient to Tucumcari. and

passed recommending Tucum-

snUMs IN THE COUNTRY

Country people have looked upon
the city slum as a terrible place in
which people are damned together in
indecency and disease by, the dreadful
pressure of city conditions and as a
thing from which country life is ex-
empt We have been correct as to
the dreadfulness of the city s1una, but
we must prepare ourselves for the
fighting of conditions quite as bad
in some rural neighborhoods
A group of people has recently been
brought to public attention in the
scrub oak barrens of New Jersey, be-
tween the great cities of New York
and Philadelphia They live in igno-
rance and squalor, in windowless huts
covered, some of them. with straw and
hidden from sight like dens in trees
Many of them are low in intelligence
and have reverted to a condition of
bararisn.
In Virginia similar rural slum
has been noted and described The
people are absolutely inferior to their
neighbors They live on poor land and
have almost given up work Their
novels are "p1tifu11y small and are
crowded to an extent not surpassed
by the most unhealthful city tene-
ments They are described as more
degenerate than the city slum-dweI-
1ers.

of Elks, in recognition Of her contri-
buttons to Elk literature
Not only has Mrs HeuastreeE's verse
won the admiration OF the E1ks of
Lodge No. 1, but it has been most ia
vorably received by members Of the
antlered tribe throughout the coun-
try. 1t would not surprise members
of Lodge No. i if she were made poet
laureate OF the entire order when the
Grand Lodge meets in Rochester in
June
Mrs. Hemstreet's appointment is the
more remarkable because there are no
women members Of the order.
Mrs Hemstreet has not confined her
poetic work to Elk themes, but has
written much on other subjects. One
Of her recent short poems follows:
THE ELKs CALL.
This world is a forest of devious ways.
A playground of joy and delight;
workshop where WEAKNESS counts
Till they sink into rneroiful night.
The forest is dark, and the silence is
deep,
Though braveIy we sing as we roam,
Close, close to each other as comrades
On the pathway that leads to our
home.
Hark! the Call of the Elk! Through
the forest it rings
Fidelity, Justice and Love.
And Charity best of invisible things
Enfold us below and above!
The faults of our brothers we write in

Oh, comrades, the forest is wfdeI
