tically impossible. This storm is one
where wind and weather, more par
ticularly weather, has not allowed
Uncle Sans letter carriers to operate
on schedule time. The snow on top
of the mountains was over two feet
deep. Reports show that cattle were
not injured greatly, although many of
them got rather hungry during the
storm. 1t has assured early grass for
the entire section.

two being in officers training camp in
Texas. Corporal Butler was sure of
getting a commission had the war
continued, as he had already made
the grade of corporal in his company.
He is a former member of the famous

soldier has many friends in Carlsbad
