THE ADVANCE.
By GRANTLAND RICE.

Here comes the Wanderer over the plain
The vagabond SPRING
With song in the sunlight smile through the rain
Where the far echoes ring;
With the red of the rose on the green of his coat
A necklace of vioets crowning his throat,
And the fields leap to life at the first thrilling note
Which his couriers bring
Here comes the CLEAN of new world to be
On the red road to May;
From lowland to upland, from hillside to sea-
With the wild storms at bay:
And over the crest of the dark night Of fears
Here comes vision to shine through Lies tears,
And here dream from the wrath of the years

every query thrown its way and re-

But one day a large, .5warthy person
stepped up and inserted a query. The
oracle rocked for a moment, swallowed
hard, and then blew up with a nause at

The query handed in was this: What

GOOD ROAD SITES

Congressman keaiing Has In
tr0duCed a Bill to Promote
Tourist Travel Here.

The Sentinel is in receipt of the
copy of bill recently introduced by
Congressman Keating, providing for
setting aside camping sites along the
state highways in Colorado. The
bill is of particular interest in Mesa
county, as provision is required
alono many of the roads within the
county for camping sites for travel
ers.
In letter to The Sentinel Mr..
Keating says:
The bill was suggested in a COM
munication | received from Highway
Commissioner Ehrhart. in which he
complained that the desirable camp
ing sites were being appropriated
by individuals, and that there was
grave danger that tourists and other
visitors would soon be compelled to
pay fees for the privilege of camping
at night in the mountains.
In common with other good road
boosters in Colorado, | believe our
state is destined to be the playground
OF the nation, and that in years to
come countless thousands will motor
through our mountains in search of
health and pleasure. | believe it is
time we were taking steps to assure
them proper camping place. | would
appreciate your views on the bill,
and would still further appreciate
anything you might do to assist in
its passage.
with best wishes, I remain
sincerely yours,
