The Modern Gypsy

Ways of going change but the
gypsy remains. Romany is in the
blood of everybody. 1t makes gypsies.
1t makes empires. 1t was in the
climb owe the mountains from the
Piedmont and tidewater, through the
gaps and into the farther valleys.
What's beyond the horizon and the
sunset and al the end of the rainbow?
Where are peoples brighter and roses
larger? Where does the sunset be-
hind the pines and where behind
mountains, where beyond lakes and
where beyond plains?
Here is the generous land of broad
proportions the modern gypsy may
travel with the price of gas in his
pocket and a skillet in the old car
from the land of the royal palm to
the land of the northern pine. He
needs only the tin bus, the price of
oil and gas, and a bit of bacon and a
tin of beans.
He and his family may then go
from the hollyhocks of Nantucket to
to the surge of the sea and the
mountains of the golden western
coast. They may own a continent as
their playground.
Tax exempt bonds help them.
They give the states money for roads
and the states are building them.
Roads are making the national
union. An Indian car is in the valley
of the French Board in North Caro-
lima a State which has miles and miles
of winding ribbon of good roads.
Georgia and South Carolina then
must bestir to get the Indiana flivver.
The modern gypsy goes into Wis
consin and Michigan for the brook
trout season and later for the bass.
He goes into Canada and in the ram
bling in the Laurentian mountains
and toward the northern lakes
obliterates a boundary.
He goes into the deserts and the
mesas. He is peering into the great
canyons. He goes easily where the
steel jacket Spaniard won a way with
difficulty. He may roll himself in a
blanket in regions which the Apache
terrorized. He may take the Cumber-
land Pass or go down slowly the val
ley of the Mohawk.
Where a great civilization has gone
slowly by horse, mule, foot, barge
battalion he may go by the same old
roads and passes, now safe and con-
GREETED,
He may find the trailing arbutus on
the slopes of Pisgah Or in the woods
of Wisconsin. He may bait for tar
pom or make a cast at mountain trout.
The great outdoor of the American
republic is here for him., The an
Gent gypsy went a hundred miles
through hostile territory with his tent
and knavishly. The modern gypsy
goes in his gas bus and every one says
"~howdy." He may tent where the
mountain brook comes splashing
down the side or where little waves
come rolling in through the pickerel
grass to break on the white sand of
a lake which has ever reflected glory
or the western sky.
He may be out in the redwoods or
he may GO into Yellowstone and e
the geysers and the canyon and come
out at Cody. He may live all the
life of the travel advertisement. the
most alluring catalogue of adventure
since Columbus, and it's all within the

Leaders Alarm at Public
Indifference Is Genuine

Washington, Aug. 19-It is now
conceded that the present campaign
for the presidency falls far short of
the 1920 standards insofar as it re-
lates to public interest in men and
measures. There is much talk of the
apathy of the citizens but the concern
manifested over this development is
genuine and not the usual political
buncombe. The reaction to the ac-
ceptsnce speechs, it is said, surprised
and disappointed all party leaders.
One experienced political observer
has compared the public's mind with
a Photographic plate which must be
sensatized to receive and retain de-
finite impressions. 1t seems that
the difficulty is to keep the issues of
the day constantly before the people.

FAMOUS ARMY OFFICER
VISITS RESERVATION

General Hugh Scott, one of the 10
members of the federal Indian
commission, paid visit to the Fort
Peck Indian reservation this week to
observe conditions among the Ind
ians living here. The General is
well along in years but still very
active and deeply interested in his
work. He goes to many tribes and
says the progress the Indians are
making is wonderful. He visited this
city in company with Supt. Peter Mol
Ter and was surprised at the devel-
opment he found. He said he was as
familiar with this country as the
Indians themselves and first came
here At years ago while serving with
he regular army.
