Dr. B. s. Miller tells about a Jew who advised another Jew, starting for San Francisco, to put up at the "Yumky" house, which, he assured him, was the best hotel in the town.
 In San Francisco, though he looked everywhere, the traveller couldn't find the "Yumky" house. No one there knew anything about it. When he got back home the man who had told him about the "Yumky" house asked him what kind of a time he had.
 "Oh, had a splendid time," was the reply. "But I couldn't find 'Yumky'

Father C. Vabre has made several more articles of utility and ornament out of cactus. One is another reading lamp, over five feet high, the base a pine gnarl, the standard the trunk of
The Coconino sun., 1920-10-08

a big cactus and the shade made from sections of the cactus; a tall hat rack, a tabouret, smoking stand, and var ious other really beautiful things.
 The reverend father gathered the cactus near Kingman several months ago, leaving it to dry out thoroughly before using it. It is the cholla, or jumping cactus, the only variety that is useful for this sort of work. It grows in semi-desert regions, in rocky or grayely soil, at an elevation of around 2,000 feet. There is lot of it in the kingman section and around Congress Junction.
 It grows to be five or six feet high, and is a most wicked plant, being call ed jumping" cactus because it seems to throw it's thorns when struck or jared. Green, it's thick bark is full of water. It is the favorite shelter of snakes, tarantulas and desert rats.
 After it has been cut and thorough ly dried, Father Vabre removes the bark and the pulp, leaving only the hollow skeleton, two or three inches in diameter. This latter, the "bones" and muscles" of the trunk, woven to- gether intricately, though symetrical- ly, is most beautiful. It out-rivals anything in hand-carving that man could do and it is hard to realize that it has been a. part of a grotesque, evil desert plant. Father Vabre finds rec reation in fashioning these useful gifts for his friends. Certain it is that one who possesses one has something rare, curious and beautiful. He now plans making an altar of cacti.

MOOSE ORDER DESCRIBED.
To Large Audience in Barre Opera
House Last Evening.

The philanthropic accomplishments
Of the Loyal Order Of Moose and the
protection insured to member and
his family in times of illness or death
were the points emphasized at the free
entertainment of the Loyal Order of
Moose given in the Barre opera house
last evening.
Deputy Superintendent Henry T..
Moses and assistant deputy Chester
Bennett are striving to establish a
large lodge in Barre and in order to
do this concluded that people must
learn the great fraternal strength and
accomplishment of the order, the or
ganization that has been fostered by
such men as the late exPresident The
odore Roosevelt and Vice President T.
r. Marshall The method of giving
this information to the people could
hardly be improved upon for after
hearing Arthur w. Hayden, district
supervisor. of Boston, give an interest
ing description Of the international or
ganization, they saw four reels of
moving pictures tell the story realisti-
cally.
The order was founded by group
Of workingmen in 1888, so that their
families might be protected after their
deaths. In 1914 the organization was
reiuvenated to accomplish even great
er aid TO a member and his family, and
to-day there exists just few miles
from Chicago, ILL.,, a great fraternal
city known as Mooseheart, financed
and governed by this fraternity.
Its chief purpose is TO furnish homes
and education TO widows and their
children. They are not compelled to
live in dormitories with other fam
lilies as in most such institutions, in
stead, a mother and her children are
assigned to separate home of their
own and there may reside until the
children are educated in high school
and vocational training and capable
OF earning good living.
The story OF the size of this haven
and the good work aetuated by it
brought applause at different intervals
from the crowd of people that filed
nearly every seat in the orchestra of
the Barre opera house.
Preceding this lecture and the NOV
ing pictures James Bennett, tenor, sang
