From Former Baxterite

lsOVinBUOu, ~. MeA.I
Aug. q. 1917.
The, Baxter News:
am sending a few words OF
thanks to my many friends Of
Baxter who remembered me with
a post card shower August 21,
which was my 23rd birthday.
There were "A In all, which
were all nice and greatly appre-
ciated and | wish to thank each
individual as II would take so
much time to answer each one
separately, ! am answering them
all through The Baxter News.
/ suppose some of you would
like to know what kind OF a
country this is and what kind Of
10 home ! have.
The country is especially
adapted to stock raising, farming
is done on q small scale. 1t is
about four thousand feet above
sea level and is known as the
plains Of N. Mexico.
We live ten miles west Of
Lovington and Lovington is
twenty miles from the east line
|of the state and ninety miles
from the south line and in Lea
county. 1t is sixty five miles to
the nearest railroad point which
is Artesia, N. Mex.
1t has been a very dry year
here, during 1917, very little
crops being raised. We had no
rain to bring grass or crops from
Oct. l3, 1916, till July, 1917, and
the rain being light and covering
small spots OF territory, cattle
have died from starvation all
the year.
We have a small ranch, a few
cattle, horses and sheep. We
irrigate a small portion of land
from our wind mill. This we
planted in garden truck which
yielded abundantly and we are
canning and putting up vege.;
tables for a winters supply Of
food.
We have a nice yard with
shade trees of different kinds,
rose bushes and flowers of most
all kinds, a small orchard con-
sisting of fruit trees and a large
variety of berries.
With good wishes to all also
to The Baxter News.
Mrs. Mable Watkins.

was liquor. The men appeared,
waiting for the four o'clock train
to the south and so the officers
stood in the dark waiting for
them to get on the train when it
pulled in, in order to catch them
with the goods. The men ap-
peared to suspect the presence
of the officers, specially when a
few kids" made a nuisance of
themselves" in trying to learn
just what the local officers were
up to. When the train pulled in
two hours later than it was
scheduled the men boarded it,
but without the suit case and
the box, which were brought to
the police station and found to
contain four quarts, six pints
and a half pint of whiskey.

The Honeymoon House
By HAZEL DALE

perfectly natural thing that Mr..
Lowry should be engaged. 1t was
just because the message was so for
eign to what she had expected. So
she summoned all her common sense
to her aid and smiled radiantly at
the girl. who eyed her solemnly, and
then sat down to wait.
Ten minutes passed, then fifteen
and then twenty. Janet began to
fidget in her chair. Surely Mr.. Low
ry would not keep her waiting like
this; there must be some mistake.
When the half hour mark had
passed, Janet got up and approached
the girl again.
Are YOU sure that Mr.. Lowry is
still busy" she asked.
"Ill ring up and see but he said
he would send out as soon as he
was ready"
Janet waited a moment as the girl
flashed the signal.
HE says you can go in now" she
conceded and Janet walked hastily
through the swinging door and down
the long passage bounded with
ground glass windows that led to
Mr.. Lowry's office.
Mr.. Lowry was seated at his desk
as she entered, and he nodded to her
carelessly.
"Oh, Mrs. More" he began curtly,
"I sent for you to speak to you about
the stories you sent in"
did you like them? ?" Janet asked
eagerly.
They're not at all what need
for the Children's Hour, with the eX-
ception of this one. You might take
this home and read it over carefully.
| have instructed my secretary to
mark the places / wish you to
change. When you have it ready,
bring it in, and I'll see what l can
do"
But, began Janet, helplessly.
That's all, I think" Mr.. Lowry
this afternoon; you'll excuse me,
won't you?" And q second later
Janet found herself on the outside
of the office door, with her manu-
script held tightly in her hand.
She felt slapped in the face and
horribly humiliated. The fact that
she had come there expecting to
have to repulse Mr.. Lowry for his
unwelcome attentions made her
cheeks burn with shame. He had
selected the story she had thought
the weakest, too. Well she would
never go near him again, never, she
could find another way to market
her work And then the thought
came to her, sudden and overwhelm-
ing, what would Jarvis say when
she told him about it? Would he
laugh at her a little bit for being
so sure of her power?

Tapioca.-lt&s a strange thing
about custards But housewives sell
dom look upon them seriously. In
fact they are in most cases only

tivities of the cook are ratt lax

easy to prepare and is, therefore,
very popular for the host who has
guests dropping in when not ex-
pected.
In preparing tapioca pudding put
two tablespoonfuls Of fine tapioca
in double boiler with one pint Of
milk, cook and stir till tapioca is
transparent. Add yolks OF two
eggs with three tablespoonfuls of
sugar, one pinch of salt and stir
until it thickens. Add whites of
the eggs beaten to stiff froth and
stir lightly for about three minutes.

10y LidLSi DdiC
Sometimes life will proceed tran
auilly for long time until the most
trivial thing will set it aglow with
excitement. Janet had gone back to
her old position on the Chronicle,
and her work began to appear again
more regularly. She had not heard
from Mr.. Lowry since the day she
had lunched with him, and her days
proceeded with so much of routine
in them that she began to be rest
less and long for something to hap
pen. 1t was of course the reaction
ment, and she hadn't had time to
become used to normal existence.
One day as she was about to leave
the office she received a summons
to come to Mr.. Lowry's office if she
had time TO spare that afternoon.
The note filled her with expectancy,
as she had left three or foVF stories
with him before she left the mag
aZine. That is, she had sent them
IN to his office.
Janet in spite of herself wonder
ed Just how Mr.. Lowry would treat
Aer. All her feminity was upper
Stost she was prepared for anything,
and yet she could not help but feel
her own youth and attraction. No
woman feels anything but kind to-
ward a man who evidently admires
her, no matter how much she may
be averse to his attentions. And
Janet, because she felt intuitively
that Mr.. Lowry admired her, and
because Jarvis had fortified her with
his own suspicious. felt a keen little
stab of triumph and was prepared
to be friendly but firm. She felt the
advantage all on her side.
She went into the rooms of the
magazine with quiet surety. The
place seemed like home to her. There
was a new girl sitting at the desk
outside the sanctum sanctorum, who
looked up as Janet appeared, and
said pertly:
Name. please?"
Janet wrote her name and Mr..
Lowry's on the smaIl card and then
sat down to wait. OF course she
would be admitted instantly. Her
soft lips curled mischievously when
she thought of the crestfallen look
that must appear on the face of that
over-confident young woman when
she should return with the message
that Mr.. Lowry would see Mrs.
More Immediately.
The girl returned in a few min
utes and surveyed Janet critically.
There was no smallest hint of re-
spect about her as she said:
Mr.. Lowry is busy now; he says
for you to wait"
In spite of herself Janet felt
wuuelched. She could not for the life
of her tell why, because it was a

Warren regarded the tiny thing
which Helen had just begun with
1isfavor.
Don't think much of it; it's too
loud"
1T isn't as loud as the one Louise
IS doing; hers is cerise."
We'll, this is orange"

| graciously. "If we get away at all

| Warren was genuinely ashamed of
himself, and did Helen the honor of
looking sheepish.
We'll. l only said that because YOU
women are so crazy about places
where you can show your clothes.
You know the money affairs haven't
been going any too well for me of
late"
| Helen said nothing about all the
| successful deals he had engineered.
| She reasoned that there was a time
for that, and there was no need OF
hurrYing matters. She would havc
% have clothes after while, and
when she asked for extra money and
the bills were unusually large she
could remind him. That would be
;ime enough.
What was it you were saying
when you interrupted me?"
oh" said Helen, remembering
her former remark. "I went down
20 see Frances this afternoon and
he talk turned on Viva Nesbitt."
Warren looked interested. DE

little girl up among YOU" he re-
marked.
Not at all; the girls name hap

Frances what ! had overheard that
night after tea"
You mean what she said to
Carp?" Warren almost shouted.
Helen nodded
