Masons are at work on the founda-

the alley from The Courier office.
Gallatin valley is still waiting for
spring weather. Storms thus far
have kept the soil too wet to admit

Seems to Be True That
World Loues the Poet

A Peruvian court recently sentenced
the poet Santos Chocano to three
years Imprisonment for the murder
of fellow bard of lesser fame. What
ever the motive alleged in the legal
proceedings for the light sentence, the
real reason must have been the con.
servation of poetry. For Latin
peoples and tribunals have much tol.
erance for even the graver delinquen-
cies of poets and other artists. Thus
prominent chef was lately sentenced
In Paris to year in the local bastila
for skewering dishwasher who had
cast slurs on his sauces. :
To cite earlier examples, Francois
Villon, he of "the Vagabond King"
was desperate and thug, ancestor
of the modern "apaches" of his city,
and probably escaped hanging only by
virtue of his poetry. Perugino, the
great painter, was common disor-
derby, and Benvenuto Cellini escaped
punishment for his crimes only
through the intervention Of noble car
dinals, for whose tables he fashioned
immortal golden chalices. In later
times Verlaine, most melodious Of
modern French poets, was stepped in
all the baseness Of the stews of Paris,
and, like Santos Chocano, was charged
with the murder of fellow poet.
All of which recalls an incident told
of the last flight of Carranza from the
City of Mexico. The pursuers were
about to bring down a follower of the
fallen President, who had ignomini-
ously climbed tree alongside the
route of retreat With guns leveled
at his head he shouted the magic
words: Don't shoot; am poet"
whereupon the soldiers lowered their
rifles and gave vent to chorus OF
lusty "vivas."

This is hard life and difficult to
understand. However we are DO
ing what seems to be required OF US
in the light and knowledge we nave.
AS far as separating the family

comfortable, we had comfortable
getaway. A telegram from our
Mission Board helped us to make
IN our minds that all the women
folk of the Baptist Mission should
leave. We meant to get away In
five days but finally took six. There
are eight boat fulls of us all told.
And some others got off just ahead
of us by day.
Our first day out we moved ABOUT
six miles all told. The water Is
very low and it was literally case
of going overland by boat. we
had to unload most OF our trunks
onto a small boat and then be just
lifted and pulled over the stones

LETTERS FROM CHINA

The following extracts from the
letters of Mrs. Jane Dye, from
China, will be of unusual interest at
this time, as the eyes of the world
are centered on that country, which
is seething with internal strife.
Mrs. Dye is a daughter of Mrs
Myra Balderston, of Colora, and she
and her husband have been in the
foreign mission field for some years.
February 6, 1927

Chengtu for the Baptists. There
may be fifteen American and British
Missionaries left here. Evacuation
is the order. The Chinese Chris
tians cannot understand, and others
hardly grasp what it means. the
feeling on the surface is rather
friendly and we have many friends

there are endless fascinating combina-
tions of colors. And when you paint your
set yourself, you will know it's different.
Now you look around and see an ugly
old oak dresser. Remove the mirror,
brackets and all, and paint the chest of
drawers one of the soft pastel Duco
shades possibly French Gray or Nile
Green. Then hang an oval shaped mirror
from a harmonizing silk cord above the
newly finished chest, and you'll be COM
pletely surprised at the remarkable i'm.
provement. If you have an old Clipped
iron bed, which doesn't match anything,
paint it to match the new dressing table

almost impossible-looking old furniture
can be used again, and your bedroom will
be just as charming as though you had

times the actual cost of the refinishing.

squares Of not more than eighteen inches.
Take dry sponge and go over the second
coat Of Duco leach square as 1t 10 applied

through. You will find this treatment makes
o very artistic background for any room.

your friends their attractive rooms. It's just
