cnne Sunday evening January zSth
over the Union Pacific, arriving :,ere
last evening.
From Cheyenne west to Odgen
the country is pretty much void of
scenery, until you arrive within about
80 miles Of Odgen, when the high
palisades, grotesquely hewn; the pure
water streams, deep chasms and the
famous Devils Slide are among the
chief attractions to the tourist. We
crossed portion if The Great Salt
Lake on the famous Lucon Cutoff

of construction and engineering u

has to the tourist enabling one to
travel via train on water apparently,
this is about SO miles in length.
Woke up the following morning
at Sparks, Nevada, and was soon in
Reno, made famous by those who
would have marriage Innulled.
The weather was freezing and foggy
and soon we entered the famous
Truckec river canon, where the
mountain sides are covered with the
ever present evergreen tree. As we
approached the summit Of the coast
range, the snow increased in depth
to about 4 feet, gong thru nearly
fifty miles of snow. shed ut an eleva-
t'on ot approximately $500 I.e'.
The western slope of the coast
range is profusely covered with an
abundance Of varied trees, shrubs,
etc. including many tall sturdy ever
greens.
In 2 and one half hours time after
leaving the crest of the coast range
we had arrived in a country where
ubouided many tropical plants-the
difference in climatical conditions
being ut oncc noticeable. We we're

W. r. c. TO START DRINKING
FOUNTAIN CAMPAIGN SOON

The Women's Relief Corps Of Ar
vada will start the Drinking Foun-
tain campaign, accepting the sugges-
tion of the knterprise in last weeks
issue, that we erect a monument OF
this character in Arvada to the boys
who went from this vicinity to war,
some Of whom never will return.
Nothing could be more fitting or
III line with their work than such an
IN undertaking for this organization,
which in itself is q living monument
to the heroes Of the civil war. While
no plans have yet been adopted, the
ladies o: tile Relief Corps nave ex-
pressed their intention Of initiating
. movement with this end in view.
Wine they will be the prime NOV
ers in TINS noble cause, there is every
reason TO Deiieve that they will have
the endorsement and cooperation OF
every other organization in this COM
nunity. The Commercial Club ana
the Loukes, no douDt will take an in
teIest anu help.
Arvaus has an ideal setting for q
monument OF this character at the
present site of the little drinking
fountain, where it would be con-
xpicuous, or some other site might be
selected tnat would be more desir-
able.
What citizen is there who could
offer any objection to such lauda-
bic undertaking? What more strik-
ins emblem could be imagined to in
sp,re patriotism in the minds Of the
young people who would trudge by it
each day on their way to and from
school and quaff the sparkling, cool
waters to quench that thirst tnat
comes with the days studious toll!
What lAAn ,s there who in the bouy
ancy Of his youth hiss not stood at
the shrine Of the solalers Of bygone
days and read with eagerness the
names Of the immortal ones who sac
rificed their lives that he might en-

Dear Mother:
1t seems ages since / saw you and
father in Columbia. But we got away
in very good shape, right on the tick
of the minute. Our trip to the unmen-

lation in an unspeakablea camp was

Cross courtesy at several stops, and
the men ate and slept and played
cards and gambled and sang in ortho-
dox manner.
My first shock came at Camp -,
where l ran into a quartermaster ma
~jor, who seemed lost in our area. He
said that one of the S. A. r. D. batter
les was to go out the next day, and

Immediately set to work, getting our
final equipment, and were getting

the next So we worked till 5 a. M,
and got Ted on the road tWenty-three
hours after our arrival in camp-a
record time for the port. BY o'clock
the next morning had finished equip
ping my men; checked up all my dis.
carded equipment, completed my re-
ports and closed my records. We
spent the morning cleaning up our
quarters and getting everything in
shape for our departure, leaving the
gate Of the camp on the dot at noon.
We had to march about three miles to
the pier, getting thoroughly soaked
en- route by cats and dogs thunder

ing Hail, hail, the gangs all here. "
1t is impossible to dampen the ardor
of troops going overseas. The Red
Cross ladies were at the pier with
cigarettes, apples and cards to be
mailed when the ship arrives in
France. Then a bunch Of quartermae
ter and adjutant general Heutenants
swarmed down on us to make final
check of my records and check the
men aboard the tug.
Our departure from land was made
in a little harbor tug. but just the
same 1t gave me quite thrill. It was
