am spending two delightful
weeks with A. P. Green and family
at Colorado Springs, and while the
air is not intoxicating-it is certainly
inyigorating. The Greens were for
tunate in securing a handsome home
on Wood Avenue with spacious
grounds and a fine view of Pixies
Peak and the mountains. 1t is an
ideal summer home in every ems of
the word. Tourists are here from all
over the world and are much pleased
with the mountain air and the Won
derful scenery as | am.
Mountain climbing is one OF the
pastimes of the ladies. They wear
"knickers' or "kickers" or something
like that and casual and not too close
observation leads me to think maybe
they are trousers. "They say" bob
bed hair and trousers make an attrac-
tive combination for mountain climb
ing ladies. l was too busy enjoying
the natural scenery TO form an opin-
ion. We had a wonderful automobile
trip all over the mountains. They
call it the High Drive" 1t most GER
tainly is high. Something like 10000
feet up and you must have confidence
in your a and in your chauffeur or
you will not enjoy the wonderful
scenery unfolded before you like a
moving picture.
Mrs. DIR. Winans lives here and
likes the town very much. Mr.. Pear
son of the A. p. Green Brick Com
pany with his sister is here enroute
to Yellowstone Park in his Franklin
car and having a fine trip. The

Miss Carrie has a fine place in the
high school while Miss Birdie has o
large class of University pupils,
They are very fond of Colorado but
would like it better if there were a
few more Democrats in the state.
Colorado has wonderful roads anc
that reminds me that at last Missouri
is to get out of the mud and l think
Mexico should be satisfied with the
location of the main roads by the
Highway Commission. We are going
to not only get Out OF the mud but
we are going to get on the map

Roger Sullivan, Former Engineer, Dis.
abled In World War, Successful
In Camera Work.

The fact that he was an engineer
before the war may help him to un-
derstand the mechanism Of a motion
picture camera, but the knowledge Of
proper lighting effects and other
things incident to the successful pro-
ductions Of motion pictures had to be
learned by Roger Sullivan, after he
was seriously disabled In the World
war.
Sullivan was wounded while operat-
ing with the United Naval forces in
France. After the war, young Sulli-
van found that his injuries were such
that he could not successfully "earry
on" as an engineer. Under the super
vision of the U. s. Veterans bureau,
he entered "a school Of photography
In New York and has completed a

OBITUARY.

Mrs. Alice Hull Lewton was born
at Barry, ILL.,, May /, 1854. Died at
Mexico. Mo-, August 10, 1922. She
bscame a member of the Baptist
Church At the age of 16 years. Her
lie WIS that of a truly Christian
philosopher; always wearing a CHEEKY
smile, patient and long suffering in
every trial-like st. Paul, ever strug-
Cling upward for the best in exper-
fence and life, and in whatsoever
state she found herself resolved
Herewith to be content She was a
shining light to her c~hildren-and she
raised a family Of eight to noble man
hood and womanhood, all honored
members of society. Three of the chill
dren had preceded her to the glory
world and in a classical poetic eff
fort-for she was q writer of some
note-she once said Of them:
"But where my treasures are viii be
my heart.
Some are here; in heaven are part,
And the Father keepeth them"
When such a light goes out the
world is the poorer. But the influence
Of such a life goes on and on. We
can hope when the summons comes
to each of us-as it surely will-to
go hence and be absent with her.
And then comes to us the consolation
that David gave when his child had
gone back to God,
she cannot return to me,
But I can go to him."
May the bereaved one be consoled
in these thoughts.
