DIVER FINDS EULKEAD
CLOSED: HOPE IS RENEWED

NENPORT, K. l.. Sept. 2S. -
~. unofficial wireless dispatch re-
ccived today from the scene OF the
submarine S-51 disaster stated that
a diver. sent down TO the Sol, had
found the bulkheal of one com
partment slightly damaged but
closed.
Navy officials here said if this
information were accurate there
still was remote chance that at
least Il few OF the 81 trapped men
n ght be alive.
Il was pointed out that each com
partment Of the submarine was
supplied with oxygen sufficient to
sustain life for about - hours and
that if the sailors had succeeded in
closing one of the hulkheads they
might at least keep alive until 10
o clock tonight.

Dream Cabin
By LORETTA BAUER
For The Winslow Mail

In the heart of a mountain, topped
with snow,
Where silence reigns-tau pine
trees grow,
I want my cabin of dreams to
stand,
Away from the world, just to touch
Gods hand.
In the beauty of the summer, and
her laughing, wilful, way,
I'd wander in the glory, far into
another day
Then when the sun is slowly sink
ing, and fading in the west,
I'd wander DER the trail again, to
my cabin, that is best.
When the SHOWS Of winter softly
fall, and whisper to the pines,
And drape my cabin silver, in a
way that is divine
I'd sit beside the fire, dreaming that
once more call,
To journey through the silver world
the silver trail, beyond.

MISS LORETTA BAUER

IN THIS page is printed set of
verses, Dream Cabin" by Miss
Loretta Bauer, young lady of
Winslow, whose poems are attract
ing attention in an ever-broaden-
ing circle of admirers. Miss Bauer
has had number of poems print
ed in this paper during the past
few months, many of which have
been reprinted in newspapers
throughout the west. Until last
year she was a student in the
Winslow high school, where her
studies included English compost
tion in it's higher forms.
Miss Bauer is young-gloriousl
young. Her years have been too
few to bring her experiences rich
in conquest or tragedy, therefore
her writings are of a philosophy
and mental adventure yet to be
encountered, but when the exper-
fences of rich and normal life
are hers, she will have developed
her ability to understand and ap
preciate through the habit of put
ting into words of fluent meaning
her present thoughts and the re-
actions of her experiences.
Few people become articulate.
They prefer to express their per-
sonality in acts and deeds. That
person who can perform an act or
suffer an emotion with understand
ing, and then delineate that exper-
ience in we'll chosen words and
well ordered lines, as Miss Bauer
can do, is indeed a fortunate per-
son, and one whose life will hold
trebled meaning, for she is de-
veloping her powers to see, to hear
and to feel, and nothing that life
brings her will be forgotten or for
saken.
1t is said that prose consists of
words in their best order, and that
poetry is that best words in the
best order. Poetry expresses more,
in fewer words, than prose. 1t
raises and erects the mind, and is
the stuff that hands down fame to
ages yet to come,

THE OLD-TIME CHRISTMAS

0LD-TIMERs caught in the holi-
day rush and. gazing at the
wonderfully alluring panorama of
the shop windows often fall into
a reminiscent mood and re-live the
Christmas of the long ago. Who
does not fondly recall the magic
of Christmas in his childhood?
Most of the presents were home
made. Perhaps grandma furnished
mittens, knitted by oil lamp after
you had been tucked in bed-thick
warm mittens with long cord that
extended up through coat sleeves
and around the neck to prevent
loss. Aunt Saphronia gave you
basket of Christmas cookies, shap-
ed like animals and stars and COW
cred with delicious colored sugar.
Uncle Tom gave you watch, and
his generosity appalled, you even if
it was the old turnip that he had
discarded. You can imagine the re-
action you would get if you tried
giving a 1925 boy a secondhand
timepiece.
Most of the presents were useful,
in the old days, including REFER
overcoat and new pair of shoes.
AS for "boughten" presents, they
were limited to "the Erie Train
Bay" by Alger, Henty's with Give
in India" a New Testament, a sled
a pair of skates and that most
wondeful of all old-time toys, tin
monkey that climbed a staring.
At that, Christmas of long ago
represented proportionately as big
an outlay as now, comparing earn
ings in the two periods.
But the gift itself was secondary
to the spirit of the giver Some
how every grown-up can't help be-
lieving the Christmas dinners of
those days were superior. The
Christmas eve entertainment at the
church was as enjoyable as the
modern movie. And the ride in a
cutter over the deep snow beat the
auto-trip of 1925.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF
AUTOING

THOSE who are looking forward
to Santa Claus bringing an
automobile for Christmas will re-
ceive a more elaborate and COM
forting gift than if they had re-
ceived the same thing twenty-five
years ago. This obvious observa-
ton is suggested by the fact that
the Automobile Club of Southern
California, on December 13, COM
pleted the silver anniversary year
of it's organization which inspired
a backward glance on the part Of
it's officials
The auto was young, noisy and
uncertain when 46 Los Angeles
pioneers got together late in 1900
and organized a club, the main pur-
pose of which was to defend them
selves from the hostile attitude Of
the public generally toward the So
called devil-wagons. In those days
there was speed limit of ten miles
an hour, and laws existed in some
California counties not permitting
motor vehicles to enter the county
after nightfall.
The rapidity with which the mo-
tor vehicle merged from a million
aires toy into a practical utility
affording pleasure in it's use is one
of the greatest romances of Amer

Do you wish you weren't there,

A cumbersome chair barks your
shin.

lost his gold,
Or do you see the funny side and
grin?

To take life as it comes with a

to have anything to do with them.
The first step in building up and
strengthening a union is for that
union and its members to set a good
example; attendance at meetings is
of the utmost Importance. A we'll
attended meeting gives encourage
ment to all those present and makes
the officers feel that the rank and
file are really taking an interest in
the affairs of the organization. Poor
| ly attended meetings make those who
| do come lose heart and make the
officers feel their efforts are not ap-
preciated and that no one cares much
what they do.
Members who stay at home on
| meeting nights get out of touch with
the things that are being done by
their organization, and then they
either oppose the action of their union
or fail to cooperate with it.
There are always to be found few
members in every union who seem to
think it is their duty to oppose every
thing that is done and find fault with
their union, its officers and active
members; yet when these members
are offered chance to get into the
harness and do some of the work, they
respectfully decline, or if they are BY
some chance elected to some impor-
tant office they seldom, if ever, are
able to show as good results as those
whom they have found fault about
The reason for this is that they
are not constructive workers They
