the pending measure is general in
scope. permitting any and all such or
ganizations to obtain tracts for sani-
tarums.
The main object OF the fraternal or
ganiZatiOns is to obtain, in each case,

zation may he treated and cured, par
ticularly in cases of consumption.

for Individual holdings. The bill per-
mits the Secretary of the Interior to
withdraw or reserve the land applied
for, for not exceeding two years, to
enable any fraternal organization to
investigate and determine the condi-
ton of the climate. soil, water supply
facilities and other questions, before
obtaining patent. Then the organiza-
tion could get, not exceeding four Sec
tions of unoccupied non mineral, arid,
semi-arid or mountainous land by
placing substantial improvements. the
land to be used exclusively for sani-
tarum purposes and If not SO used to

Humanity Prizes Most What There I.
Least or.

Clinton, Ia, Herald: Somebody
has been singing the praises of the
last robin 10 linger with us to the
end of the year. The occasion, or the
robin, seems worth celebrating. Au-
tumn is a brief period. Before we
know 1t the birds are gone. the flow
ers frozen, and even the leaves dry
and the trees barren. And the fun
niest thing about it, or about us. is
that just as the year drifts into the
frost or winter we begin to realize it's
passing charms. And so we like to
discover a CHEEKY, brown winged rob-
In, just as red breasted as he was in
AprIi-strutting across the lawn or
lettering on an elm bough. He seems
like a little postscript of summer.
We stop and pay some attention to
him. We listen to his song and re-
mark that there is a robin and we
turn up our coat collars and wonder
