Soon the house will be biult and completely furnished. It is To- cated near the Fort Lawton military barracks, where she can kear the bugle calls and be close to the sol dier boys she loves.
 The veterans will furnish her with provisions for the rest of her life, but Mrs. Wilkins has room on her lot for a little garden and she prob. ably will keep some chickens.
