waste area, supposedly without a
semhlance of soil, around crude
buildings constructed from waste wood
and scrap tin-neither large nor ar

boss, his family, eight helpers and
two horses, have come luxuriant fields
of waving corn, high pole beans, crisp
lettuce and cabbage, red ripe toma-
toes, all kinds and varieties of vege-
tables, growing as if the soil were
the most fertile in the world. How
is it done? Maybe it's the ashes.

our extreme qualification that you
sent yoEr minstrel show to Helena for
the convention Rest assured That we
will not soon forget the magnificent
entertainment offered by your bunch,
not only at the cabaret show, but also
the special stunts given during the
day and night on our streets. AS far
as the show part of our entertainment
went it would have been of little
value without your splendid help: we
know that it costs lots of trouble and
expense, and beg to say right here and
now, that Helena, No, 1913, is yours to
command for any service
Personally I have no words to ex-
press my keen appreciation of yoCr
efforts, of which / have heard nothing
but appreciation.
With every good wish for your con-
tinued success and prosperity,
Sincerely and fraternally.
