Barrio Obrero, como dijera yo
mismo en- otro articulo que publica-
ra, esta a la altura de cualquier
otro pueblo de la isla; pero, con pena
en- el alma, vemos que aun Sc trata
como uno de los suburbios de la ca
pital.
No solamente-como dice I'd
necesitamos un Hospital sino tam
bien, en- lugar de un Hipodromo en-
donde Sc malbarata ell dinero, un
Parque, un sitio de recreo en- donde
Ia ninez que va levantandose pueda

con los habitantes de la Barriada

cuantos amos la joya preciada de to-
dos los puertorriquenos. Y hay que

Plugiese a Dios que tan pronto CO.

Gracias, seiior Director, por su ar

damente vistieron v lucieron sus ira
jes militares los hfios de Puerto

humane.
Para concluir esta humilde carta
quiero estampar aquf como signo ce-
lestial uno de los parrafos de su
editorial que dice: "Es este un asun-
to que no debe tener dilaciones in
necesarias. Los habitantes del Barrio
Obrero solo piden un sitio donde re-
cuperar sus fuerzas cuando la en-
fermedad los yenza Y como de su

her experience with the preacher and
how she escaped from the house boat

Jack does not tell her that the dead

He stopped to straighten the dead
man and-a subconscious act Of com
passion, perhaps-to get the cramped
arm out from under him. AS he moved
the arm, the frock coat fell open and
piece of soiled white paper stuck, in
pocket of the vest caught his eye.
He drew 1t forth, glanced over the
dozen or so scrawled words and passed
the paper to Uncle Nick The old man.

He kicked Black Bogus box to the
open door, stood it on end, sat down
and scraped his match on the door

With final word of caution to keep
secret the identity of the dead man,
the wcodsman hurried away.
At the inquest an hour or so later
Jack merely repeated the statement he
had made the night before. OF Loge
Belden and his sister-knowing at last
her pitiful secret, he let fall no word.
