HUI MILITY
BY STEPHEN L. HORTON.
(Written for The Mail.)

Oh Desert Land so scorched and
barren,
Clothed in faint colors elusive and
rare,
Your rough contour blurred into
even
By great distances rocky and bare,
Take me to your inner shrine,
Indifferent one, show me your
greatness.
Teach this vain heart of mine
The immensely of it's littleness.

Toots From The
Round House
By Charles Erickson

Two very important events at the
good time during the shopcrafts
picnic at fuckers Spring last Sun
day were left out of my report, so
I now make mention of them. The
one-mile Ford auto race with many
entrants was won by B. F. Tram
NELL, with his famous six-cylinder
Lizzie, and although the cylinders
were missing, ne crossed the line
at a speed of 81 miles more or less.
The other stunt omitted was the
unbelievable, although true, butch
er knife swallowing of that Irish
Jew, Ed Mccormick. How does the
throat feel now Mac?
On account of eye trouble Ross
Dover was under the care of DR..
Brown until yesterday when he re-
ported for work on his new job of
sheet metal worker apprentice.
E. Esparza, laborer, was placed
under j. E. Kleindienst's supervi-
sion and, of course, as is the Santa
FEES generous way, was added 70
the payroll.
Motor car No. ISL was given a
general overhauling last week by
Maintainer j. L. Hancock.
Henry Nomanchi has returned to
work after an absence of one week,
during which he celebrated the ar
rival of a son.
Having been promoted to high
er paying job, Elmo Creel, store
house shipping clerk, has also adj
vanced a couple of degrees in
tShiekdom," Judging from his re-
cent company. Get them while
they are young, pretty and unsoph-
isticated, is his motto.

S. D. McCaskell, formerly of
Gallup, was hired as an engine
Waterman a few days ago.
Latest observations disclose that
Mildred Suggs is up to the minute

The good news was received by
Chief Clerk Mark Smith that Rudolf

was added to the growing hospital

erously donated the use of the House,
the picture, and all the facilities with
out any charge whatever. The print
ing and advertising for the show, as
well as the furnishing and printing of
the tickets, was donated free of
charge, and the entire proceeds went
to the hospital fund The entertain
ment began promptly at eight o'clock
with a high class comedy picture
which was followed by a minstrel
show by members of the Century

a Thomas Meighan picture, one of the
best which has been seen in the Dow

and carried out. Mrs. Walter Massey

and every one in the cast is to be
commended on the way in which the
different parts were carried out. Mrs

Kemp, of Dover. Fire was observed
burning between the ceiling and up
per floor of the store, near a CHM

The fire is thought to have originated
from a defective fue. The loss has

to be slight.
