hearts of the grief stricken and
MANNED of Europe, and their anguish
may be lessened and made more bear
able.
In this season of charity and good
will let those better endowed with

of help to the poor and needy. Let
us comfort and aid our sick and un-
fortunate"

Santa Fe Trail to Be Paved.

Rocky Ford.-There is considerable
interest in Otero county regarding the
the proposed concrete road from Pu-
eblo to Kansas City over the Santa Fe
trail and there is little doubt that the
county will build several miles of road
each year. During the fall months
this road is cut up by the heavy loads
Of beets and it requires the expendi-
ture of a good sum of money each
spring to put the trail in a passable
condition. 1t is argued that with
good concrete road the amount neces-
sary for repairs would be small.
