A ROSEATE DREAM ENDS.

In 1921, twenty-eight motor cars filled
with people from New York crossed the
United States as far as a tract of land
in Idaho where they planned to form
colony and forever abandon the congcs-
ton of the city with its turmoil and traf-
fic. They were going to become Farm
ers-pioneer farmers and work out their
destiny in the golden west. Alas, for
such bunk. There are today, a few more
disillusioned and awakened city dwellcrs,
because the entire colony is back in New
York working behind counters, at desks
and in offices. The only member Of the

every four minutes throughout the
year. Our extended junketings awheel
suggest the pastoral estate of the no.
MAIDS of High Asia. Our fondness for
public sports by hired athletes is
Roman. Our penchant for pageantry
is Elizabethan. Our preference for
apartment house life relates us to the
cliff dwellers and tenants of communal
houses in New Mexico. Our liking for
tall talk comes from Algonquin tribal
orators. Our feminine habiliments are
legacy from King Tut's time. Our
laws derive from the Puritans. Our
language is rediverting to an ancient
dialect Of South England Our masked
orders have affinities with the cult OF
Mumbo Jumbo among the West Afri-
can natives. Our interest in dreams,
magic and occult practices puts us
upon speaking terms with prehistoric
man.
If we are mistaken in drawing these
differences from history. then we must
conclude with Henry Ford. in little
difference he had with the Chicago
Tribune, that history is bunk anyway.

Once they paused before a great
cruel instrument OF iron, seemingl,
much too large to be a trap, that had
been left at the set from the previous
trapping season.
Lift it," Doomsdorf advised. Ned
bent, finding the iron itself heavy in

"Toggle" was word that Ned had
never heard before, but which plainly
represented a great log, or drag, to
which the trap chain was attachde.
1t took nearly all Of Ned's strength
TO push down the powerful springs
and set the great jaws. The fact that
he didn't know just how to go about
If impeded him, too. And when he
stood erect again. he found Doomsdorf

He cut slender whip, about half
an. inch in diameter, from a nearby
willow, and thrusting both ends into
the ground in front of the trap, made
Nm arch. "When the old boy comes
along, he'll lift his front foot right
over that arch. to avoid stepping on
ANYTHING that looks so unstable, and
then straight down into the trap,
Doomsdorf explained. IF it was
heavy wood, he'd rest his foot on 1t
and miss the trap"
A few minutes later they came to
what seemed to Ned a new and inter
esting geological formation. 1t seemed
to be a noisy waterfall of three or
four feet, behind which the creek was
damned to the proportions of a small,
narrow lake.
