Hail HailI the gangs all here.
What the do we care! What the
do we care! Ernest Wooster.
with his wife and two twin babies,
came in late Monday evening from Cal
ifornia. We shall soon have the same
old gang that started this mighty lit
tie institution over eight years ago. all
back together and bucking the game
with more vim than ever before! Once
a person gets heart and soul into the
ideal here, it will never be forgotten
as long as he lives-and as long as
his great-grandchiIdren live! We old
colonists are exceedingly glad to have
the Woosters back with US, and the
new people soon will be; for they are
fine pair; almost equal to that pair
of twins. George Cantrel wants to
trade his pet rooster for one.

Who was that bowling about a brick
layer the other day? Well, whoever it
was must have had tremendous voice,
for here all of sudden comes in Com
rade Moline, from CaIifornia,who was
a member Of the Colony while we were
out there. For some curious reason
or other, he lost trace of us and sup
posed we had evaporated, and turned
into ether, hydrogen, or some other
gaseous form. But it seems that, In
stead OF turning to a gas and becoming
invisible, we are a resemblance of rad
lum. and our light radiates around the
world. On running across number
of The Colonist in one of the large
cities Of California, Comrade Moline
Immediately made preparations to get
to Newllano as soon as possible. He
is first-class brick layer-just what
we have been looking for all summer.
Monday morning, he started in on the
machinery building, which has been
patiently waiting most of the summer
for the skilled hands of mason. The
old shed is growing feeble with age,
and every one will be glad when we
can bury its carcass and move the
machinery to its successor-which will
be the first complete building made of
our own material by our own hands
and used by our own brothers.

Comrade Martin and his better half
went down to De Ridder after their
car Sunday. They had left it there the
Sunday before, on their RETURN home
from the attempted rice-ranch trip.
They started with the other bunch that
went, but on account of car trouble,
they never reached their destination,
On coming home, they got caught
in the rain and left the car at De-
Ridder and came home Monday on the
train.
Comrade John Rohner, who has
been corresponding with Daddy Glee-
ser. came in Tuesday from Alabama.
He has place which he wishes to sell,
after which he intends to make Llano
his home.

Comrade Sutherland. who has been
out over the western part of the par
ish in the interest of the Democrat, ar
rived home late Tuesday afternoon. He
reports a good trip; but not so many
subs as usual. Our little parish paper
has grown by leaps and bounds since
George came. The Exchange system
that we have started this fall is doing
wonders for ourselves and for our
