1000 Steers to
Be Trailed As
In Olden Days


Pioneer days will be re-enacted
shortly when 1000 head of two-year
old steers from the Lee Russell ranch
at Midland will be trailed to the Byrd
e. Armstrong property near Dalhart.
Dick Byrd will leave this morning
in a wagon for Midland TO take
charge Of trailing the steers TO the
Panhandle.
The steers were bought from Rus
sell some time ago but delivery is
Just being made. They are the mash
ed 30" brand. II is estimated about
30 days will be required TO trail the
cattle the distance of $50 miles.
Reason for trailing the stock is the
high cost Of transportation. II is said
by one cattle man that the transpor-
tation would be $4,000 by rail, and
that the total cost the other way
would not run much over 81 600.
Old-timers yesterday recalled
other days when il was learned that
the cattle would be trailed. They re-
called the time when cattle from the
south plains and West Texas were
trailed 20 Canyon for shipping pur-
poses. At the cattle shipping time,
il is said that it was not unusual for
there to be as high as 100000 head
Of stock in the Canyon section

According 70 the story, rough
pencil drawing. made by Washington
himself was taken 10 Mrs. Betsy
Ross, who kept an upholsterers shop
in Philadelphia. "Can you make a
flag after this design" she was ask
ed. Her answer was, Il don't know,
but I'll try" She did try, stitching
the seams Of every stripe and sew
ing in the stars. No wonder that an
association has been formed 10 buy
and keep for patriotic purposes, the
home in which was made, by the
hands Of Betsy Ross, the first real
American flag.
Although there has been no mater
ial change in the flag as originally
designed, its present form was adopt
ed only about one hundred years ago.
II was first planned, you viii recall
for the thirteen original states. As
other states were admitted to the
Union, stripe and star were added
to the flag. This plan was continued
well into the first quarter Of the nine
teenth century and until the flag
had twenty stripes and twenty stars:
Il was then seen that II a stripe and
a star were added for each new st9te,
il would be necessary TO increase the
size Of the flag indefinitely. So on
April 4, 1919. Congress enacted:
THAT from and after the fourth
day Of July next. the flag Of the
United States be thirteen horizontal
stripes, alternate red and white; that
the Union have twenty stars, white
in a blue field: that on the admission
OF every new state into the Union,
one star be added 10 the union Of the
flag. and that such addition shall
take effect on the fourth Of July next
succeeding such admission"
And thus on July 4. 1919, our flag

with its noise which stopped whenever
the star had a speech and began, i'm
mediately someone was shot: the
grewsome murders, the Pickering
candle light; the suspense; the hyster-
ical scream of an overwrought wom-
anal were there, not one single
melodramatic action was missed.
And then the curtain descended, the
lights fared UP and perfect wave OF
high-pitched excited talk swept over
the audience. Nervous giggles could
be heard in all directions. One of the
three girls whispered, Don't forget to
ask me what happened to me in Paris
last summer, it was simply awful! Gee,
it would make good story"
A row Of young sub-debs forgot to
be blase and talked loudly, Uttered and
snickered in keen enjoyment of the
mystery. Their conversation ran
something like this: ooh, Mary, I'm so
scared. If those lights go out again
I'll scream. I just know I will! Hold
my hand, plea-a-se. Do you think he's
the one? Oh, no, he couldn't be, he has
such sweet eyes! Sh, sh."
The short member of the trio
grabbed one of the tall girls hand.
Goodness" she exclaimed, your hand
is like ice! 1t gave me such a start,
felt like dead thing. See that man
over there, that's Jack Thorpe. Hello,
jack" she trilled across the several
rows that separated them, and re-
ceived blank stare, followed by a
"ready- to-be-picked-up" smile. "Oh,"
she cried, hiding her face in embar-
rassment, "that's not Jack! Why I
don't know that man at ALL"
The lights grew DINNER. the curtain
ascended and the audience hushed it's
whispers to a tense silence, vibrant
with suppressed emotion. Every once
in a while a sharp exclamation. a
stif1ed scream broke through the

charged atmosphere, until the curtain
once more descended and the same
strident murmur of The spectators
arose in more and more excited "won-
derings."
There is fearsome joy in being
scared, even when there is nothing to
be scared about.
To watch the faces of the women
in the audience during the progress OF
one of the thrills" is almost as excit-
ing as the play itself.
One sees them sitting, white-faced,
tense rigid and wide-eyed, watching
the characters on the stage with
breathless interest and bated breath.
The actors are playing on their heart
strings and emotions as a great violin
list plays on the strings of his instru-
ment.
At the fall of the curtain, when the
lights go up, some of the women look
as If they had awakened from night
mare and were relieved to discover
that they had only been dreaming, aft
er all.
Men, on the other hand, struggle
vainly for the most part-to assume an
air of Indifference. 1t becomes obvi-
Gus from the conversation at the end
of the evening, however, that the men
as well as the women have enjoyed be-
ing shocked, thrilled and frightened.
Life for many is not particularly ex-
citing at best, and the fearsome joy of
being shocked, scared and thrilled
brings an aftermath of pleasure when
the strain is over.

ports being closed) it congresses this
fresh mixture, and when at the top Of
the stroke the spark causes it to ignite
