Do You Remember This One

It just ten years ago and just such clear crisp New Years as this bids fair to be- We took part in picnic out at the Petrfed Forest and the way home the doughty fifty horse power Kissel Car, owned by certain Ell Paso banker who shall be nameless bauked at the hill just beyond the spot where it rises beyond the cement bridge the Little Colorado. But then there cement bridge just the old steel one which fell during the flood several years ago when the St. Johns reservoir went rampage. That was before the days when driver expected his car to climb anything short of stone wall, and spent little time making the ascent but at ast tired, hot and dusty we finally reach ed Holbrook but much smaller Hobrook than we see now
 Then in the evening there was dance. It was a genuine old fashioned dance too. Held down in the old Woods Hal and tired as we had the time of lives There pile of odoriferous drying hides in and the floor wasntvery smooth, but didn't mind that. Teeps office in the front kindo rowed down the space at the door but there still plenty of for the ''stags" to congregate in the draughty spot.
 And DANCE--say, the way we danced then was really exercise, twostep, and waltz with about every fourth dance quadrle made you hustle to catch up with your breath Well we are not in the lightweight class now, and weren't then, and watched the lighter whrled through the of cage the brd go to ai and 'al go to church, decided that if they had in set they wouldn't find the swinging quite so easy.
 But we know about it now for the next set was ours and the masculine part of it husky bunch. There John Dvebess, Geo. Hennessey, Emmet Wal lace, and Harry Jamson from Denver and what they didn't know about square dance you could put in a gnat's eye Geo. Hennessey did the calling and the fun was on.
 The spectators sitting the boards around the hall laughed until they nearly knocked the svery blanks from their supporting stools and kegs and still the dance went on By the time it was over there wasn't single speck of breath left and had been swung clear off the floor so many times we'd lost count.
 But we had wonderful time although some of the young snips looked dsdainfu and talked longngy of new dance the one-step which just coming in, and which to be huge success but they were afraid to risk it that night it might be too much of an nno' vation.
 Thus do we travel on through the years in Ho- brook So perhaps you'll see why, when we read the following poem handed to us by w. B. Cross and publish
