 Great blasts, great shovels, and great ingenuity have removed the ob- stacles which hid the little residence city. Sacramento hill, the landmark of the pioneers, the most imposing hill in the canyon, is fast disappear. ing before the seekers of copper ores, and as layer after layer is taken away, more and more of Warren is disclosed.
 The summit is the highest point on the Borderland route with an ele- vation of 6030 feet above sea-level, and distance of 2.S miles from Bis bee. In this brief distance the climb from Bisbee is nearly 1000 feet, yet so easily is it accomplished that ma. ny cars can make it without changing gears.

 Just 100 years ago the Steamboat Savannah, an American built vessel of 320 tons, made the first steam driven trip across the Atlantic. It labored under awkward side-wheel propellers at the rate of six knots an hour It took five times the number of days to cross, now required. But it crossed in much less time than modern sailships of its day.
 And, within the past week an air plane has crossed the same path from the United States to Europe. It cut down remarkably the time required by the fastest steamship.
 The Savannah left docks on May g, 1919. The. NC-4 commemorated this date by it's flight.
 When the first railroad wound out of Benson toward the Warren dis trict, the engineers built according to their knowledge of the country.

 But in spite of these facts, the hea- " rains of the summer period, the could bursts of Arizona, washed out the culverts, demolished the bridges and ate away the roadbed.

Amateur photography is the hobby
of George H. Macdonald. who prac-
tices law in the McLachlen Building
for a living. That he does not waste
time, cameras and chemicals when
engaged in this pastime is~evidenced
by the fact that many Of his pictures
are on exhibition in local stores and
studios. He was, president of the
Capital Camera Club for two years.
Mr.. Macdonald was born in Chicago
in 1869. He had little schooling in his
younger days, starting to work as a
telegraphic clerk when only 13 years
old. = He practiced telegraphy for 30
years. mostly at Albany, N. Y, where
he went in 1883.
In 1894 he set out for Washington
and obtained position at the clicker
with the Western Union Telegraph
Company, and later with the Postal
Telegraph Company.
However, Mr.. Macdonald did not
intend to be a telegrapher all his life.
so he began to attend night school
and study Blackstone. In 1902 he had
learned enough about legal procedure
to graduate from the Washington Col
lege of Law.
Twelve years ago he Started a pri-
vate practice on F street, and after
wards removed to the Woodward
Building. He now practices law in its
general sense on the ninth floor OF
the McLachlen Building
Mr.. Macdonald is a director of the
Board OF Trade and was chairman of
the membership committee in 1917. He
has been connected with the Masonic
fraternity for q years. He is mar
ried and hopes the time will come
when both he and his wife may cast
votes in the District. His home is at

Sleep; and my song shall build about your bed
A Paradise of dimness. You shall feel
The folding OF tired wings; and peace will dwell
Throned in your silence; and one hour shall hold
Summer and midnight and immensely
Luled to forgetfulness For where you dream,
The stately gloom of foliage shall embower
Your sumbering thought with tapestries of blue
And there shall be memory of the sky,
Nor sunlight with its cruelty Of swords
But to your soul that sinks from deep to deep
Through drowned and glimmering color time shall be
Only rhythmic swaying and your breath;
And roses in the darkness, and my love
