Dear Mother and All:

Dear Mother and All
H. Will drop a few lines this evening
and tell you of our trip. We left Ida
Grove at $50 p. N. Monday and land
. ed in Council Bluffs at II p. m. were
, transferred to sleepers at Council
Bluffs at about l o'clock, nice long
wait, must say. We got to bed at
1880 a. m. Tuesday morning. woke up
at Forest City, Mo-, ate breakfast
at St. Joseph, ate dinner at Kansas
, City. That was the last meal we ate
off the train. All the rest of the time
we ate on the train. We crossed from
Missouri into Kansas a little after
noon, went through Topeka and were
in Kansas until about l p. m. Wednes-
day, when we passed into the north
west part of Oklahoma. My goodness,
the southwest part of Kansas is good
for nothing. All one can see is dry
soil and occasionally a shack on the
prairie and maybe a poor farmer try
ing to raise something in that good
for nothing soil. We all decided that
Iowa was the only state. At p. M,
Wednesday we passed into the Texas
saw-handle, which is the extreme
northwest Of Texas. That and the
part of Oklahoma we went through is
mighty fine grazing country. After
we got into kanses a ways all we
could see was mules. At about 6 p.
m, Wednesday,, we passed into New
Mexico, so we were in three states
in one day. At the first Mexican
town, saw a real for sure western
sheriff, broad brim hat, corduroy vest.
boots and spurs, just like the ones
seen in the movies. All we can see
after we hit New Mexico is prairie. |
woke up Thursday morning in the
foot hills and as we went along, we
came into the mountains. We could
see mountains on both sides. 1t is
closing time at the Y. M. C. A.
Saturday evening, 7::0 p. m.
Will endeavor to finish this letter
now. Some of the mountains were
fifty miles away. 1t was only prairie
and plains to the foot of the noun
tains and as level as our yard at
home. That is farther than we can
see in Iowa. Some of the plains were
covered with grass and sage brush
and occasionally we could see a prair-
lie dog village and farther south, it
became sandy and kind of bushy-like,
like plants could be seen. They call
it mesquite. We have it here at Dem
ing. Some of it is as tall as a man,
and some not so tall. We saw very
little cactus on the way down. There
is no cactus here at all. The plains

Dear Folks at Home:
Well we arrived here all O. *. Our
camp is about an hours ride from
Broadway, and l hope to see that
street some day. AS told you in a
former letter we did not see much of
Chicago, only a few factories; neither
did we see much Of Buffalo. But we
sure saw some pretty sights along
the Delaware river, but did not get
view Of the place where Washington
crossed the river.
When we came to the island we had
to go under river, and we were kept
in the tunnel just one hour. We were
glad to get through, | can tell you.
We went along Lake Erie and had a
splendid view OF the many ships to
be seen along the horizon. We wrote
our addresses on slips OF paper and
threw them off at every station as we
passed.

to the city, as we will have to take

err, than in New Mexico. There are
$4,000 of the boys here and there are
still more coming every day.
The first thing we saw was numer-
Gus aeroplanes flying around and they
fly every day and certainly make a lot
of noise Rest assured that | am all
right except my wrist and that is pref
ty sore. We have not had a pay day
as yet, but suppose we will in about
two weeks. We are all out OF smok-
ing tobacco, and some would go nice
right now.
We are only three miles from the

we were still in the mountains that
is in the valley between two mountain
ranges. We hit Ell Paso, Texas, at
about $3.50 p. m. Thursday We had
hike through town, saw several
MeXicans across the river. We left
FL Paso about 6 o'clock. We crossed
the Rio Grande river short way out
of Ell PasO, and we were in New
Mexico again. The train wound
around right at the foot of the hills
for quite distance out Of Ell Paso
At$one1 place, we could almost touch
the earth at the side of the track 1t
was almost straight up for quite a
ways. We stopped at small village

saw several little Mexican children,
ranging in age from 8 months on up.
They are black as negroes. The MeXi-
cans couldn't understand English. The
Mexican women are small and look
like little girls After we got Always
into New Mexico, we saw Mexican
villages made of adobe. 1t is a sort
of clay looking stuff. The houses are
square and certainly odd looking to
one who is not used to such things.
At one place on the prairie, we saw a
school teacher, at least we took her
to be a teacher riding over the prairie

where gun is the law. We got into
Deming at about II o'clock Thursday
evening, but I went to bed about $50
so didn't know what time we arrived
at our home. i woke up early in the
morning and looked out upon sand
and mesquite and few yacco plants.
These yucca plants aren't very thick.
We never see dirt, nothing but sand.
Our camp is all sand and SO with all

one thinks they are about mile or
too away, but in reality they are
closer to twenty. Two boys from our
company were going to walk, to the
nearest hill today and be back by roll

THE FINAL TYPE PHONOGRAP
AT THE PRICE OF OTHERS

The Brunswick Phonograph is, frankly, all phono-
graphs in one. Up to now it has been the custom
for each photograph to have its individual
refnements. Some had two or three-maybe four
valued features, but none had them all.
The Brunswick is composite model in which are
found all the desirable present-day features Thus
new levels in the photographic art attained.
The Brunswick is the greatest sensation in the
monograph world.
1t is made by The unswick-Balke- Col1ender Co.,
which has been famous for generations for its wood
working experts. They have been making fine phono-
graph cabinets for years for others.
The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1917-09-19

But not until perfected phonograph was possible
could The House of Brunswick afford to bring
instrument bearing its name.
Music lovers who want something more than the
ordinary photograph invariably use The Brunswick.
1t does more than merely initiate sound.
One reason is its scientifically constructed sound
chamber. Unlike others, it is built entirely of wood,
like a violin. Some metal horns. That, we know,
accounts for their metallic, nasal tones. These
entirely absent in The Brunswick
Come in and hear the wonderful Brunswick Then
you will really know what fauess photographic
reproduction means.
