Blankets and Comforts
 Need Washing Often

If blankets and comforts were washed once a year a century ago, our forefathers thought it was suf- ficient.
 Now we know that these bed clothes become soiled even if to the eye they may seem sanitary enough
 If you would have your blankets and comforts as spotless and i'm maculate as your other bed linen, send. them to us. We employ a special method of laundering that makes them light and fresh, that gives them a wonderful fluffiness, that frees them from every impurity

The American Legion Lloyd C. Hill Post

ation of the Medical Officers views:
 Post Hospital
 Fort Logan, Colo,
 August 8, 191S From D. A. Richardson, Sanitary In- spector.
 To The Surgeon
 Subject: Sanitation Report. ' l. The company hog pens located on the easterly sloping bank Of the creek running west and south of the Depot are of three groups, viz: a south, middle and north group. 2. The south group of seven pens and middle group. of eight pens are unutterably filthy and in a most gross ly unsanitary condition, both as re- gards the life of the hogs and as menace to the welfare of the inhab- itants of this Depot and it's immediate environment. The interior of these pens is covered with old bones and litter and inside and immediately in front of each pig house proper are holes filled with water and manure in which the hogs wallow. The hogs present a most unhappy appearance and, by their surliness of temper and fatigue, demonstrate that they are troubled and harried not only by their environment, but also by the swarm of flies which are breeding at this group of pens.
 3. The north group of six pens is quite clean and dry and the pigs dem onstrate their contentment and satis- faction by activity, pleasant demeanof and general cleanliness of body. There are no flies present in this group of 4. It is recommended that these pens be raked clean of bones and lit ter, the same being burned and not merely piled in heaps, and the interi- pens.
 or of pens be properly graded and drained by ditches. This will guaran- tee a full financial return and benefit to this depot and to the hogs them selves.

 1 This office learns with deep re- gret, that decent hogs must pine and fret and loose their chaste and class ic beauty, because some man neglects his duty. A sense of confidence mis- placed, offends a hogs aesthetic taste and every effort should be bent to keep him happy and content.

Mrs. G. H. Hays, Honor Guest

In compliment to Mrs. G. H. Hayes, who is soon to leave Morenci for her new home in Douglas, Mrs. John Kid die was hostess at an afternoon party, Friday, May 14th. Upon reaching the cool vine covered porch of the beauti. full Riddle home, the guests were greeted by the hostess and honor guest presiding at punch bowl, set amid profusion of vines and flowers, and presented with a draught of de. licious cold beverages.
 The dainty score cards, bearing hand colored spring flower designs were passed for bridge, and a dozen tables enjoyed the afternoon at cards. A delightful salad course was served, Mrs. c. M. Staples carried off the first prize. beautiful vase; Mrs. Earl Hastings second, silver cream ladle; Mrs. Jackson received the consolation of a pair of candle sticks.
 As the departing guests expressed regret upon loosing Mrs Hayes, good wishes for her future were quite as freely given.

2. The undersigned is pleased to learn that this inspector did discern the difference in looks and style, be- tween the hogs so course and vile. with manners surly and uncouth, in all the pens extending south, who not the least resemblance. bore to porkers of the Q. M. Corps (whose pens are farther to the north as in above re- port set forth). These animals so slick and fine, the pink of excellence in swine, display upon their radiant features the happy look of greatful creatures. The Quartermaster's pigs alone maintain this high and lofty tone and their appearance fresh and fair betokens kind and loving care.
 3. The fact is not so widely known, tho in this letter clearly shown, that greatly change the nog-s ''demeanor' D Altho the fact is likely true, that in the army there are few expert enough in their profession, to rightly read a hogs expression. To tell just where the trouble lies by contemplation of his eyes, or by the wrinkles on his shoot, might stump the average re- cruit. It has been claimed that hogs will thrive amid surroundings that would drive an animal of lofty pride to early death and suicide; that while his belly is kept full, he thinks this cleanly stuff is "bulp'; that plenty in the way of eats, his cup of happiness completes.
 4, As these opinions seem to vary, concerning what is necessary to ele- vate the normal tone with the hogs peculiar zone, it is most strongly rec commended, that hogs in future be at tended, by men expert in reading fac es, who can at once detect the traces upon the mournful physiog, of any poor disgruntled hog, that point to mental irritation, or procine trouble or veXation.
 5. Psychology is thus combined with physiognomy refined, and just dash of the occult might help the ulti- mate result. 'Tis thought that man in charge should be a keen and compe tent M. D. Who bat the Medical De- partment could have of wisdom such assortment? Who but graduate of college could have so vast store of knowledge? The truth is we have no such store of learning in the Q. M. Corps.
 6. The main consensus of opinion, pretaining to the hogs dominion (which is perhaps not far amiss) ap pears to be about like this: Despite all scientific lire, a hog remains just as before; he makes a picturesque display, when viewed from far away; his grunt is musical and clear, pro- viding you are not too near. He smells serenely sweet and clean if proper distance intervene. But not withstanding speculation, and philan- thropic meditation, and theories of demagogues, most hogs will still re- main-just hogs.
