III All Who Hate

If all who hate would love US,
And all our loves were true,
The stars that swing above us
Would brighten in the blue;
If cruel words were kisses,
And every scowl a smile,
A better world than this is
Would hardly be worth while;
If purses would not tighten
To meet a brothers need,
The load We bear would tighten
Above the grave of greed
II those who whine would whistle,
And those who languish laugh,
The rose would rout the thistle.
The grain would rout the ehaff;
If hearts were only jolly,
If grieving were forgot
And tears of melancholy
We're things that now are not.
Then love would kneel to duty,
Then all the world would seem
A bridal bower of beauty,
A dream within a dream.
If men would cease to worry,
And women to sigh,
And all be glad to bury
Whatever has to die:
II neighbor spake to neighbor,
As love demands of all,
The rust would eat the saber.
The spear stay on the wall;
Then every day would glisten,
And every eye would shine,
And God would pause and listen,
And life would be divine.

GOLFER AND HOLMES PERFORM
 SENSATIONAL FEAT WITH '0[DS'

Jules Holmes and Bobby Culter said they were going out to put an Oldsmo- bile through the Hole in the Rock, ? whatever that was So we hopped in and set forth. Took the camera along too. IL was some place over by the Tempe road, they said. and if the "Olds' couldn't make it nothing could. Take look at the picture and judge for your self.
 Well, anyway as We went along Colter kept telling us nice things about the "Olds" and about the springs. that is. when we hit a bump. Nice springs. too.
 Then every now and then Holmes would chip in with q little dissertation upon the ease with which the car was going to make the grade up that hin by the hole"
 Pretty soon we hit out over the des- ert towards the buttes and the big hole we could see up there on>the hill Road was bumpy too, but then we had those springs and didn't mind the bumps much COlter wasn't so far wrong about those springs Ut that.
 Finally we rounded the base at the bottom of the big rock which contains the famous aperture. Golfer wanted to try and run the car straight up the side of the cliff but Holmes said he thought Ferguson might object to the wear on the tires. It's Fcrguson's car you know. Not that the car wouldn't be able to make t alright. Holmes said
 The road or trail or whatever it was lead up towards the heavens around on the other side towards Granite Reef. It was pretty steep at that so We thought We would let Holmes and Golfer try it alone. They both carry life and accident insurance. We walked up
 The car beat us there. at that Ii was tough struggle and several times We made ready to apply first aid but they got there and Coiter had hard time keeping the car from going right on through the "hole Golfer said Did you see ae make it on high!!" l know he made it on something but l have more faith in low than in high 1. on that grade.
 The car then took a rest and we took some pictures. The machine purred away in a contented manner while We did SO Evidently 1t was proud of itself and maybe it knew the picture was going in The Republican.
 About the time we were ready to leave somebody wanted 10 know how 1 we were going to get down again. 1 Colter argued that he could back down the easiest of anything he knew We'll. l we let Colter 20 10 t. He informed US that in the line of auto demonstration ' on rouSht and rocky hillsides he had 4 the submarine activities of the Ger man sea boats faded a mile.
 After he had slipped and slid about two hundred feet we believed him. that . is. we believed he would know some thing about submarine activities if he stayed with the car long enough for il gave promise of reaching bottom in great hurry Colter stayed with the car, however. due to the fact. he told us afterwards. that the construction of l the Oldsmobile was so Siaunch that man was safer in the car than trying to make q quick getaway winch might prove to be disastrous.
 Finally Golfer and the car reached an angle which was too much for even his iron nerve" out Of feeling Of charity, evidently the car stayed up-

ance on the sun beaten highways of Imperial Vallet. Governor Estaban Cantu, of Lower California. selected Haynes Light Sizes for the ser vice of himself and his engineers in the road building operations with which he intends to connect Mexicali and Ensenada. the capitol of Lower California.
 Governor CaBtu purchased two Haynes Light Sixes" for the exclusive use of his engineering staff. The governor himself is the owner of q Haynes ear. Its performance at the hands of the cotton ranchers under the temperatures of southern Cali fornia deserts attracted his attention. shortly after assuming the governors office
 The state highway which Governor Cantu is projecting is 12S miles long, and runs its whole distance through q region that has q average annual rainfall of less than an irch. Part of the new state road will be well above sea level where is crosses the Black Butte mountains at an elevation of f.3n0 feet. Work began fast May, anc it Is likely that the highway will be completed this summer Forty five per cent of the work IS done now.
 That the governor of a Mexican province should be building roads at this time seems a bit paradoxial Governor Cantu however, is out of the pale of the national turmoil, and he is doing his revolutionizing in a constructive way. His corps of ma tive engineers are military graduates of Chapultepec and they are rushing

right. Right here three strong men came to the rescue and held up the entire side of the car which pitched at the lower incline while Colter threw her in once more and reached terra firma. It was all deucedly ex- citing. you know, and if it hadn't been for us we don't know what would have happened to Colter.
 Tiffany, he was the other we" in the party. claimed that it was his mas sive strength which performed the feat by lifting the entire lower center weight of the machine. We gave Tiff fany the honor of the center position on account of his superior imaginative abilities. He said he imagined that if the car turned over he would be able to escape in some way or other. There fore Holmes and I took the end. There was more weight there We though, also the clearance was better for a geta- way.
 After it was all over and We had smoked d little to restore our nerves Colter unkindly remarked that it had only demonstrated the superior light ness of the "Olds." Colter is always demonstrating something about the car anyway
 That is about all that happened. We had another film left but Golfer couldn't find a hill steep enough to run up so the ear came back to Phoe- nix and brought us with il. When we hove in front of the salesroom Tiffany wanted to take a picture of the bunch in the car with the building for background. That was just to demon strate that we were safe and sound. So we let him do it. Then We all went 10 work again.
 Anyway, Golfer did what he said he was going to do. He made the hill and put the car in the Hole in the Rock.

sure remedy for broodiness when she
put an alarm clock, set to ring inter.

When the alarm started the hen
was annoyed for moment and then
tucked the clock under wing. There,
without ruffling the birds equanimity,
it clattered until run down. The hen
seemingly concluded it had acquired
title in the clock, for when Mrs.
Stuchell tried to recover 1t she re-
ceived resentful peck.

IOWA HAS HEN THAT CROWS

Chicken contralto Tones
Des Mcines, Iowa.-Did you ever
hear of hen that crows when it lays
an egg?
Kansas may brag about It's egg
laying roosters, but Des Moines has
the real thing in hen that actually
crows.
The hen which is winning chantic-
leer honors is owned by Ralph Hut
tenlocher of 1925 Arlington avenue, is
of the black Spanish type and splen-
did layer. The feathered prima dom
mas efforts for impresario honors was
not noticed until several days ago,
says Mr.. Huttenlocher. A Growing
was heard in the hen house, but
while the noise did not betray the
rich baratone characteristic of the
Usual barnyard cantata, the aria was
at least artistic.
When members of the family went
out to the henhouse there was a
warm egg in the nest and the black
hen was flapping her wings and low
ering her head in imitation of the ra-
jah of the feathered darem when he
crows, but the appearance of the wis.,
itors frightened the hen and the eX-
pected chanticleer oratorio was not
commenced.
On the following day the family
kept closer watch. One of the men,
bers saw the hen flap her wings and
then in rich chicken contralto that
showed unmistakable evidence of long
training, she crowed.
Since then the hen has been heard
several times executing brand Of
crow that would be music in the ears
of even defeated political candidate.
