The Sunday Musical
Speaking of the

opeaking OF the
Bonito Inn, it is certainly a haven
of rest for road weary motor trip
pers. tired business folk. and mothers
and children from the pulsing heat of
the lowlands. Terraced high above
the winding road of the one street
town, its cool shade, wide lawns of
velvety blue grass and quaint old
adobe home Of yesteryear, is an ideal
place to rest. and the bygone stirring
days of old Lincoln affords an inter
esting study when one can induce
some of the older residents to talk
OF the early days in this place, which.
by the way, enjoys the distinction OF
being one of three oldest towns in
New Mexico, ranking with Santa Fe
and Socorro.
Among its interesting features is
the ruins of the round stone tower
and old stockade used by one fac
ton of the Lincoln county war, and
later where Billy the Kid defended
himself from the tower port holes
against a big posse of men. finally
shooting his way out and escaping
for the time. Down the street from
the Inn is the historical old court
house, the scene of many stirring
events when Lincoln was the center
OF civilization of the entire eastern
slope 1t was here that the gay
babies were given, where the DASH
ing army officers from the flour
ishinp post at Fl. Stanton footed it
merriIy with the native senoritas and
American bellies, and no less a person
than General Pershing himself at
tended many of these affairs. Social
lines were not sharply drawn in those
days. and all were welcomed in true
western fashion as ladies and gentle
men until they proved themselves
otherwise.
Further up the street is an inter-
esting old adobe, once the fine old
home of Scipio Salazar, one of the
oldest residents. This old adobe,
with its ornate porches and balcon-
les, has long ago tumbled into ruins.
but still retains some of the dignity
of early day Mexican architecture
and character enough to be most in
teresting.
There are many quaint. pretty
homes there, too, smothered in vines
and old-fashioned flowers, and every
and then down the tumbled-down
OF old Lincoln, a native home
shines out in immaculate spick and
.spanness with the ev~er-present red
gcranium in the tiny window. max
ing a vivid splash of color against
the meager furnishings. Nowhere in
New Mexico is the climatic condi-
more even. 1t is o hot, neither
is it chilly, but strikes a happy me-
dunn that is altogether delightful,
and the languid habit of "Manana"
one can acquire with a little will
power, together with the modern
of telephone, daily mail,
and passenger cars, to form a link
with the outer world makes it an
ideal spot in which to rest.-Roswell

THE CAR THAT MAKES
A NOISE LIKE A ROOSTER

c. Max Wells, The well know

Max FASTENED to install it on his

When he went home at noon re-
Gently he found one of the neighbors

volunteered and was told that a GER
tain white rooster was the one sell

A couple OF hours later Max was
called TO the phone only to be told
that the rooster" was full Of eggs
and had been laying daily for weeks

YOU

I love the golden morning,
When the earth is bright and new,
When the sparkling of the brooklet,
Sets me thinking, dear, of you-
Then a thousand golden fancies g.
Stir my heart with love so true
That the very breath of morning
Seems to whisper, dear, Of you.
I love the dreamy twilight,
When the sunsets fading beams,
Scarcely through the silent woodlands
Touch the silv'ry path of dreams,
Then the melody of darkness
Thrills my heart with love anew,
Till the very breath of evening,
Seems to whisper, dear, of you.

out of its own decay, so is the soul
of man ripened out of broken hopes
