But I don't think it softened his spirit at all, because when took him to the barber's to get his hair clipped again on account of the tar in it sammy Williams and Maurice Levy were there for the same reason, and they just whispered little gentleman so low you could hardly hear them-and Penrod began fighting with them right before me, and it was real ly all the barber and could do to drag him way from them.

Christ. Refugees of lies swept away.
Awful reality. Hope gone Doom comes
and amidst weeping and gnashing of
teeth they go away into everlasting
punishment. Amidst the breathless
awe of the hosts of heaven, the angels
will bind them hand and foot and cast
them into the lake of fire.
Pretenses. pleas, stratagems en-
treaties are wasted for God has swept
away the refugees of lies.
Beware of the schemes of satan.
There is but one safe refuge-Christ
He is your only hope for He alone can
deliver. He is complete, an all suffi-
Gent Saviour. He is offered to all.
Whosoever will may come. Him that
cometh will not be cast out. This is
our refuge. Choose now. The storm
is coming which will try every man S
works. Do you build on sand or wait
till the storm comes then will be the
end of all preparation. Be wise, O
reader, and prepare now to meet thy
God. Sheltered in Jesus you are safe
for no one is able to pluck you out of
His hand. But the hail shall sweep
away the refugees of lies.

the Harvey restaurants. We left
Gallup at p. m, and arrived at the
Grand Canyon Monday morning. We
had breakfast at the Ell Tovar hotel.
Quite number of our party was
disappointed in not getting a burrow-
to ride down the Brightaugee Trail to
the bottom of this Great Caynon. About
10 OF our party went down the trail, it
is miles down'to the bottom.
This Canyon is indescribable. I mean
by this no one can form any idea of
this sight without seeing it. You can
read the DESCRIPTION and study all the
geographys you can get and, yet you
can form no idea of it.
1t is one mile deep, from to 20 miles
wide and pit miles long. The rest of
our party who did not go down the
trail took the Hermit Trail drive, along
the rim of the canyon. At several
places the road is not more than 10 feet
from the edge OF the rocks, where you
can look straight down one mile. We
had 10 mile drive, returned at lbs,
took lunch and the afternoon was spent
by our party writing letters, sending
cards and sight seeing around the Hotel
and the Indian Hotel, which is about
100 yards from the Ell Tovar hotel. The
Bright Angel Trail is miles down to
the Colorado river, and drops one mile.
So you can imagine that 1t is very
steep. This is delightful day, every
one in the party seems to be enjoying
the trip.
The Governors eldest SOD has not
been very we'll for several days, but is
improving, and we hope will be in his
usual health soon. We will leave here
at S p. m.

Boosting Garrett county is all right.
1t is the proper thing to do. 1t is worth
boosting 365 DAYS in the year. 1t is
growing county. Go where you will
and see this statement proven by new
farm houses, farm buildings and new
clearings.
We Of McHenry want to boost our
village, 1t is not dead place by any
means. There are signs all about US of
healthful growth.
We have church building used by
the Methodists and United Brethren,
a public school house and two stores and
several dwelling houses.
The farming land surrounding the
village shows the results of good farm
ing and tells of prosperous farmers.
The homes, barns and outbuildings in
dictate farming for profit.
From here to Bittinger is much land
that ought to be opened up into small
farms of 50 or 60 acres and put into
cultivation. There are a number of
fine farms on this road.
Riding from here to Bittinger one
sees many splendid barns, well painted;
cheerful and inviting farm houses, and
an Industrious reople.
Bittinger is one of Garrett county's
wide awake localities 1t has two
stores, meeting house, school house and
a number of happy homes.
The county roads from McHenry to
Bittlnger are being improved each year.
but we need the State road continued
from this place via Bittinger to Grants
vile. A goood thing should be passed
around.
The farmers are putting in large
crops. The orchards are full of bios
SONS, which promise an abundant fruit
year.
Quite large number of sheep are
found all around this village. The
crop of lambs is fine. Wool clipping is
in progress.
We have the automobile fever. You
will find the Ford car everywhere.
These cars afford much pleasure to the
farmer and his family when the weeks
work is done. 1t puts Oakland only
80 minutes away from US.
Mr.. Editor, we are not kickers, we
are boosters and our people are joining
the boosters club.
Merchant Railey took a day off and

ton by fire of my house on the 18th of
this month. This is my first loss by
fire and am more than surprised and
pleased with the promptness and bust
ness like manner with which you adjust
your losses.
Very truly,
Adv. Off NELLIE B. TURLEY.
