Just Folks

THE FRONT SEAT.

When l was but ittle lad l al
 ways liked to ride, No matter what the rig we had, right
 by the drivers side. The front seat was the honor place
 in, hob-seigh, coach or hack. And l maneuvered to avoid the
 cushions in the back. We children used to scramble then to
 share the drivers seat, And long the bout I wore when was not allowed that treat. Though tines have changed and l nm
 old l still confess l race With other grown-ups now and then
 to get my favorite place. The auto with It's cushions fine and
 big and easy springs Has altered in our daily lives inuu-
 merable things, But hearts of men are still the same
 as what they used to be, When surreys were the stylish rigs.
 or so they seem to me, For every grown-up girl today and
 every groWn-up boy Still hungers for the seat in front and
 scrambles for it's joy, And riding by the drh CTS side still
 holds the charm 1t did In Chose glad. youthful days gone by
 when l was just kid hurry, as I used to do. to claim that
 favorite place, And when tonneau seat is mine l
 wear a solemn face. I try to hide the bout l feel, and do
 my best to smile, But envy of the man in front gnaws
 at me all the while. want to be where I can see the road
 that lies ahead. Te watch the trees go flying by and
 see the country spread Before ,me as I spin along. for there
 I miss the fear That seems to grip tho soul of me
 while riding in the rear. And am not alone in this. Today I
 drive a car And three glad youngsters. madly
 strive to share the "seat with
 Pa" And older folks that ride with us, l
 very plainly see, Maneuyer in their artfHl ways to sit
 in front with me, Though all the cushions h tho world
 were piled up In the rear. The child in all of us still longs to
 watch the engineer, And happier hearts we seem to own
 when we're allowed to ride, No matter what the car may be, close
 by the drivers side.

ART SHOWS PART
 OF U. 5. IN WAR
Pictures by American Painters Tell Story of Expeditionary
 Forces Activities.
GRIM REMINDER OF TRAGEDY
Among Scenes Depleted Are Ruined French Villages Made, Sacred For ever to Americans Because' of
 Lives Given to. Save Them.

Washfngton.-The story of the American expeditionary force is told in pictures on the walls of the Ma tional museum here in a permanent exhibit just opened to the public.
 Drawn from life in paint. pen and ink or pencil by American artists com missioned and sent to the front for that purpose. the collection of nearly 56O studies detailing almost every phase of life in the army overseas is spread over the walls of half dozen great, well-iighted rooms. It is tale of stirring action which they dis close.
 Among the scenes depicted arc ruined French villages made sacred forever to Americans because of Amer ican blood freely given to tear them from German hands. There are the homely, appealing scenes from behind the lines with happy-go-lucky young sters of Pershing's division in billets mixing among the people of France, the very old and the very young peo- pie.
 0fIn ncT1inOET Ot tV00SOys
 Here and there are grim reminders of the great tragedy in groups of hud- dled dead in wrecked enemy trenches over which the tide of victory had poured. Again, half glimpsed through a downpour of rain, trudging, sodden infantry column is moving onward through a sea of mud .4s the artist saw 1t; or an endless line of weary gun teams drags forward the batteries to blast the road to triumph.
 At ono point the artist caught and held fer his fellow countrymen the breathless tensity of forest outpost, peertng through the leafy screen of his covert toward the enemy lines. his rife hagged close, with fingers clinched over tine trigger; at another . slash of light frUm . haif-opened doer has painted on the screen of night just a hint at column, trampfng on toward battle, just a young face or two in the line-weary, dirty, but with jaws grim set with purpose. Again 1t is a hospital that has gripped the art fists imagination, a twisted, writhing form under the tumbled blanket with agony in every line and over it the steady-eyed surgeon or the merciful figure of an army nurse.
 War implements Displayed.
 Tn rooms around the picture display are shown all the countless things with which the army and the navy dealt in the war; the guns, the bombs the uniforms of ally and enemy alike, captured weapons and German war gear of many kinds. These form a striking setting for the epic tale the war artists have pictured, probably the only such record ever assembled, for it began with the army and runs on to the departure of the homeward transports at the close.
 Artists whs made the pictures, all of whom held the rank of captain fin the American expedftionary force, include Wallace Morgan, Ernest Peixotto, Ju- Illus Andre Smith, Harry F.. Townsend, Harvey Dunn. Walter J. Duncan. all of New York city; William J. Aylward, Fairport. N. Y.. and George M. Hard ing. Wynnewood, Pa.

No attempt has hitherto been made to examine the site sys- tematically, and, as was said by the late Doctor HaverfieId-than whom no greater authority on Roman Brit ain lived-'"The spade alone can de- termine the successive stages which Roman CarnaryOn may have eXperi- enced. This much is certain. There is no site in North Wales. and only one or two others in the whole benin sula. which are so likely, if properly and systematically explored. to throw light on the condition of the country in the later Roman and earliest post Roman ages"

PUSH WORK IN GOOD PROSPECT
 IN FLUX MINE
New Compressor Drills Go Fast and Steadily to
 Main Ore Body

Development work at the FluX mine. at Patagonia IS going ahead rapidly under suspicious conditions. Manager hohlberg reports that on March 1 the new power drills were put in opera ton on the 260-foot level. The results of installing the compressor plant and drills have been most satisfac- tory. Since March the drill has been putting in six-foot rounds which have been breaking the full round aud from now on development work should progress with good speed.
 Last Thursday the round broke through three feet of excellent galena ore showing copper and silver sam. ples. Some of the ore is now at the assay office. but no returns have yet been received.
 It is estimated that the face of the drift on the 269-foot level is now yer tically under the winze from the 130- foot level. A survey will he made at once and the point spotted from which to start raise to connect with the bottom of the winze. This will de velop more stoping ground and give additional ventilation.
 A cr0sscut to the east to the lime stone footwall will be driven from this point to determine the width of the contact. Judging from appear ances the drift has been beside ore for the last 50 feet. but Kohlberg does not anticipate the vein to be of great thickness for at least 250 feet where the drift should encounter the south edge of the main ore body. The main effort will be expended in driving the main drift on the 260-foot level through the ore body, after which the body will be crosscut and blocked out. From the general formation encoun- tered in this drift and the presence of ore at several points, Kohlberg eX- poets to find the main ore shoot and increased values on this level.
