Likes Idaho Springs Best

Fred Sherr, who is on a visit to
the old home at New Lexington,
Ohio, writes to Mr.. and Mrs. j.
q. Weeks that everythingis is about
as high there as in Idaho Springs.
There are no apples tall this year.
Bread there and in Kansas City is
the same price-a Is ounce loaf
for 10 cents. The Sherrs spent
thirteen days in Kansas City and
toured the fine boulevards in autos.
Mr.. Sherr says the streets are
filed with crushed rock, then with
sand and coal tar or asphalt, and
rolled and oiled until they look as
if vanished. There is no dust on
the honlevards.
The only drawback in Kansas
City, says Mr.. Sherr. is that the
place is up hill and down, all over,
and worst Of all, is lighted by gas
instead of electricity. The gas
lamps have to be lighted every
night and turned out in the MORN
ing. This work is done mostly by
old men, and there are hundreds
of them.
Idaho Springs is away ahead of
Kansas City in lighting, and in
water, pure air, bright sunshine
and climate in general.
Street car fare in Kansas City is
Z cents.
