Airdrie. accompanied US as guide.
After crossing Green river at Para
disc, we went direct to Airdrie, pass
ing the swinging bridge which was
toe delapidated to cross.
We were taken to the site of the
old Iron Foundry, where only an i'm
mense brick chimney and two boil
ers remained to mark the place where
the iron patterns we're moulded {;
then past the spring bubbling from
the hillside that has grown famous
for its medicinal power to cure all
poultry ailments.
We passed a large pile of lime
stone rock that had been brought
from Casper river to be used In sepa-
rating iron from the ore. We saw
a pioneer Coal mine that had been
known as Black Rock.
We were then taken to the Iron
Foundry proper, where the stone
furnace. power house and prison are
still standing. The old prison is
made of beautiful stone, faultlessly
carved and in a perfect state OF
preservation.
Here on the stone wall, surround
ing the pattern pit, we ate our
lunch.
Then led by our guide we climb
ed the stone steps that led TO the
ton of the hill. There we saw piles
of coke. swinging bridges. iron
mines. stone walls, brick walks, and
stood on the very spot once occupied
bythe home Of Gen. Don Carlos Buei,
NJ which only three chimneys remain
as markers.
Resides a pleasant outing 1t was

DESIGN FOR SHIELD READY
FOR NJ. REGIMENTS

TRENTON. July 22:-Design for
a shield to be placed on the breast
of the American Eagle, surmount-
ing the colors of New Jersey regi-
ments of the National Guard, has
been submitted to Adjutant Gene--
al Gilkyson for his approval by the
general staff at Washington. In the
future. it is announced. the guard
regiments of each state will have
their W distinguishing shield Oh
the regimental coat-of-arms. The
New Jersey device has been ap-
proved by the secretary of war.
The New Jersey shield is to be
eniblazoned with the head of a lior.
encircled with a collar of four r d
diamonds, with a straight red ami
white wreath below.
The lions head is chosen for New
Jersey regiments, it is announced,
because it appeared on the chests
of Holland and Great Britain. from
which countries came the original
settlers of the state. The four rel
acknowledged ''lozenges" are TAX
ell from the arms of Sir George
Carteret, the original proprietor o:
the colony of New Jersey. The
twists of the wreath" are of white
and red, in recognition of the fact
that the predominant element
among the white settlers was Eng
liSh.
