The Llano colonist. [volume] (Llano, Calif.) 191?-1937, 1922-03-25

passed and haven't had time to read
the mail. Now. that is only a colony
condition at every point. Spring time
is here, lots Of work, more work than
we can possibly do in a day, and it
will always be SO as long as we con-
tinue to build cooperation with an
intention of converting others to our
belief. Gault. King and Sanders are
unloading the caterpiller, thresher, bin
der and other farm tools; it is some
job handling $4,000 lbs Of machinery
on one car jacques is making shingles,
while Vernon, Loutrell, Matz, Roede
and Ole are building another small
house for the Guilt family. Landrum
is now firing the big boiler while Cal
10 is laid up with sore hand. H. G.
Sutton came back to the Colony to
spend vacation. Comrade Sutton
paid for room at the hotel and is en-
titled to stay with us as visitor, with
no cost to himself until his deposit is
entirely boarded out. He will get val
He received for his money and we will
enjoy his company at the same time.
He is an excellent flute player and is
quite an addition to our orchestra.
Comrade ABBY has steady job making
sweet-potato crates at the crate factory
Benton, Waters and Babb assisted by
some of the children, are still tiling at
the old garden patch. They use brick
for tiling purposes and are doing a
good job. Comsade Shut it the fire
man at the laundry and printery boiler
and Mr.. and Mrs. Beavers, Mrs. Cox,
Mrs. Kemp, Mrs. Hamilton and Mrs.
Connors are having busy time keep
ing us all fitted out with clean and
welI-mended clothes. Our laundry is
source Of comfort to us all and is
doing excellent work, As soon as we
get some more brick masons, we intend
to build new up-to-date laundry, with
a modern equipment that will make
the work easy and add to the comfort
of the workers. Our women work in
the laundry as Colony service and 1t
is just as important as any work that
is done any place. In fact, | don't
know of anything more necessary for
our good, unless it is the preparation
of our food. The greater the service
one renders, under cooperation, the
more power it gives to those rendering
it. And we must take our hats off to
the workers at the laundry for good
service rendered. Rose Belohradsky
is helping at the stenog. office this ps
m. The Democrat is off press and
ready for the mail and tomorrow it
will be the Colonist to the press. Mrs.
Cantrell, Rose, Comrades Buck, 'Glee-
ser and Newman, assisted by c. Shut.
Maxine and Victor Gaddis, Albert Ka-
potsy and Arthur Montrose (schooI
.children), are doing all in their power
to keep your colony papers going to
you, besides doing lots Of outside print
ing. By the way. don't forget we can
do your printing as we'll as anybody
else. And we are co-operators. Mrs.
Sanders started to work at the store
to-day and Gertrude West started to
school. Mrs. Gault was hurt IN an ac-
cident Monday and will not be able
to start work for several days. 1t GER
tainIy looks good to us to see new
members, women as we'll as men, jump
into the harness and show that their
greatest aim in life is to make their
ideal a practical demonstration for 9th
ers to pattern after. The mandolin
club, band and orchestra practiced
early this evening and at s o'clock the
Colony people gathered at the hotel to
hear Mr.. Abbott, Miss LIE Feyre, and
Miss Gleason, all Of the University Ex-
tension, tell us Of their work. They
too, believe in cooperation, and they
have agreed to come back some day
and learn what we are dong.
