THE BLACK SENTINELS OF
ANCIENT VERA CRUZ.

Clustered In sable splotchos on
thu rounded tower of the ancient
plaza of Vera Cruz, opposite the
Hotel Deligencias, travellers 70
that port may observe the winged
scavengers of the Mexican city.
A black, filthy, obscene f1o;k,
these tropic vultures have select
ed the sacred structure as their
rendezvous and watch tower.
From it their bright, beady eyes
constantly scan the streets of the
city. Not noble, <Warring birds If
prey, poised for fight, but scaiy,
taloned buzzards seeking out the
weak, the dying and the dead,
ready to pounce upon them when
they may no longer resist assault,
The largest buzZard of this
leprous crew, by right of might,
occupies the apex of the golden
cross surmounting the tower. At
the slightest sign of weakness his
vassals turn upon him and bury
their unclean beaks in his dying
carcass. A buzzard is not COM
rade of his own clan. He is a
ghoul, a coward, a traitor, rene
gade, a battener of offal. He
lives ON corruption and his only
excuse for existence is that he
feeds on filth and removes it from
the sight of men.
Throughout the night this hor-
rid crew blankets the church tower
with their cabrous bodies and
with the first faint rose of dawn
peeping over the crenelated bas-
tions of the fortress of San Juan
de Ulloa they futter their raven
wings and prepare for their daily
quest of horror. Glutted with de-
caying flesh, when night falls ove-
the shoulder of might Orizaba,
they return to the tower.
Such are the vlutures of Vera
Cruz-a stencil in the nostrils, an
open sore to the eyes, things Of a
rottenness northumberland yet
they are permitted to live, pro-
tected by the majesty Of the law,
because they are eaters of filth
and scavengers of the highway.
Fearful birds, who hold high fes-
tival in charna1 houses and flee in
terror from cleanliness.
Once they were the sole sani-
tary corps Of Vera Cruz. With
the coming Of sanitation, their
avocation is lost, and in time they
will vanish.
God send this may also be true
of human vultures.

TO NELL MAE.

In loving memory of Nell Mae VIII
son, who passed this life November
|25, 1918:
1t moves me to happy memories
When / think, dear Nell, Of you
And of the pleasant hours We TO-
gether spent
When our hearts no sorrow knew.
Hours that were filled with gladness,
Hours of emotion, and joy delight,
And your beautiful character will
ever burn as a beacon
To guide me down the pathway of
of life.
Recollections with no disturbing re-
minders,
Etched forever, and it seems l see
Our sweet little Nell, who's gone to
her God,
In His realm of joy, mid souls pure
and free.
And I will keep through all life'c
changes
And have unbounded faith in the One
who knows
His will in calling our Nell to HIS
Kingdom,
The enchanted Land Of better re-
pose.
