Although it is against the rules of this office to publish any com munication without knowing who the writer is, we feel that the fol- lowing from Springerville IS worth publishing:
 To the Editor: ' Various people have reported seeing strange lights signaling back and forth in our mountains. Others claim 10 haveseen or heard an aeroplane lowering about high in the air. All are sure that our. country must be the resort of some notorious group of German spies. The most of us know that a lot if not all of these reports are due to an Overworked imagin- ation tempered with good old Scotch. Be that as it may, your readers may find interest in the following: Ye lads and lassies harken well Draw close around my tale to
 know, A story wild I'll tell to you Of fearful deeds and bad men
 bold, Of wars, of spies, of zeppeins too. From Springerville. know ye the
 place? A mountain village near the snow Where cowboys wild still shoot
 and fight And rough the shrinking tender
 foot, New wierd strange tales do come
 to light. One dark black night when all
 was still, The vale at rest and men at sleep Did little dream of aught to fear; The mountains trembled meath
 the weight Of fearful deeds they sheltered
 near The bosom of the dark was torn, A cold bright glare shone out to
 seek Old Esquidillas snow clad crest And finding there an answering
 light Did signal back and forth with
 zest Returning gloom scarce hid the
 gleam Till crashing through the still of
 night
 A mighty roar rent wide the air, Woke men. and cen the brave
 stood still With whitened faces, rigid hair. An aeroplane with spies and
 bombs Slid through the sky, and hover
 ing high Searched out the vale that failed
 to hark The thunderous pounding of its
 flight Before it sought the secret dark What brooks this all, what does
 this mean, Their own wise sheriff does not
 know.
 Meanwhile the town sleeps not at
 night
 All lights burn low, men watch
 to see
 The enemy and halt his flight. No need to tell your neighbors ,l.A -,.,. -,.1 TL a-, I-,.
