after Lawrenceville, Indiana, be-
cause the road map said SO. But
after going through LawrencevilIe
we drove and drove, expecting all
the while to see the city spring up
before us. Finally, as it was grow
ing dark, we stopped and inquired
whether there was a place called
Cincinnati in that vicinity. In re-
ply the man told us to go back
about twenty miles, and we would
strike the right road. And after
we did get into the city we had to
drive many miles to the home of
friends who were expecting us.
Getting out of the place next
morning was just as bad.
From there on, our road grew
more and more beautiful-up the
Beautiful Ohio" valley, beside
that broad and placid river, across
it into Kentucky, then on through
the mountains of West Virginia,
following the turbulent, yellow
Kenawha up its steep and narrow
valley. Best of all was our climb
over the highest and steepest of
the Alleghenies. We stopped at
the top and looked backward and
down upon mile after mile of blue
green forest, farm lands ~parcelled
green, or rusty red of titled land,
with here and there a flash of sill
yer in the sun, showing the course
of one of little streams
that tumble down these mountains.

any more than I did getting here.
Of course, a Great Northern train
isn't the most delightful place in
the world, but it was all very in
teresting. AS we went through
Iowa, I was reminded of a letter
written to Wolf Point students by
Sennie Dunn some years ago
something about &c great many
nice farmhouses; all very close
together with a great many nice
trees around them. Missouri was
more interesting, I thought. The
land was hitler and more heavily
wooded.

My railway journey ended at

Jean E. Taylor, and I started on
IL long automobile drive, in her
car.
We stopped over at Columbia,
Missouri, for a day. This is the
site of the University of Missouri.
l found it an interesting and very
attractive city. Leaving Columbia,
we had a splendid pavement to
drive on, all the way across Illi-
nois. We ate lunch in East st.
Louis one day and breakfasted in
historic old Vincennes, Indiana,
the next morning. The following
night we spent in Cincinnati. Con-
that city, l feel very much
as the old Ozark farmer felt to-
ward Chicago when he lowed
twas a right smart town, but
wouldn't ever amount to nothin'
because it was 'too fur Off" Only
my objection to Cincinnati is that
It is entirely too hard to find. We
knew that there was such a place,
and that it was next in our route

stopped again to look down into
the next valley. Both of us cried
aloud in delight at the beauty of
the scene. We were above the
cloudsi Between us and the valley
floor was a great, snowy, shining
sea of mist, stretching away to
the blue-shadowed distance, and
floating up all the little side-val-
leys. l don't know what to COM
pare it to, for though it looked
like a storm-tossed sea, no sea was
ever so white and silent. AS we
sat there in the perfect silence,
watching the slow, majestic mo
ton of the clouds that trailed
against the mountain side almost
at our feet, we felt somehow as
though we had unsuspect1ngly
been taken into a great secret OF
the elements-as though someone
had lifted a veil and had let us
look beyond.
Girls wonder why l came away
down here to go to school. They
don't realize that such a trip in
itself is an education.
If you get many letters as long
as this, Mr.. Livingston, you'll have
to get somebody else to read them

From The Wolf Point Herald of

From The Wolf Point Herald of
Nov. IA, 1918
The city and surrounding
try were just emerging from the
grip of the first influenza epidem-
ic. Announcement was made that
on November 16 the ban on pub
lie gatherings would be lifted,
and that on the 18th the schools
would reopen. The epidemic had
lasted for six weeks and had
claimed more than a cor of vic
tins in this vicinity. Removing
the ban on public gatherings, how
ever, did not effect the ruling
which required all persons with
coughs or colds to wear masks
when in public places or when
they went to other peoples homes.
The revival of the gauze mask
might prove of value in 1928 dur
ing the present epidemic of hard
colds and whooping cough.

THE OLD LOGGING CAMP

l have heard the boom" of the logging sleighs
AS they glide with their giant load,
To the landing place with it's long sideways
That lies at the end of the road
l have heard the sound of the ~swampers" axe,
And the swish of the cross-cut saw,
have heard the pine with it's mighty crash,
have known the woodsman's law.
have ridden the "top" and I've ridden the roll"
Over rundown" and portage and lake,
With the best in "the lead and as good on "the pole"
Most always the landing I'd make.
I have heard the sound of "the triangle" sweet,
AS the Cookie" announced a repast,
| have seen the mad rush of the crew to eat,
AS though 'twere a sin to be last.
I have seen the second cook lift a hot pan
And down on the table he'd slam it,
I have seen the blacksmith burn his hand,
And--someimes-Tve heard him say dammit
I have seen the "woodbutcher" fashion a sleigh,
And the wood cutter" making the fuel,
| have seen the "barn boss" with despots sway,
And a temper about like a mule.
I have heard the "toploader's" terrible sound,
AS profanely he made known his will,
I have seen the road monkey" scamper around
AS he scattered the hay on a hill.
I have smelled the smell of four hundred sox,
Hung DER the stove to dry,
In a sleeping camp as tight as a box,
With wet mittens and shirts close by.
| have felt the charge" of the little graybacks
AS they cuddled up in my shirt,
I have met the fierce "~bed-bug's frenzied attacks
With many a kerosene squirt.
I have sat with the rest on the deacon seat"
When at evening the days work done.
Round the old cannon" stove with its terrible heat,
Where the finest of yarns were spun.
Sometimes they were tale of the Paul Bunyan" type,
Just to puzzle some new greenhorn,
Of the timber his cook fell at one great swipe
With a blast of the old dinnerhorn.
Or. perhaps, twas a tale of Paul's big blue OK"
And his mighty proves true,
How he drew more logs without any blocks
Than any steam hauler cauld do.
But more oft were the tales of other days,
And of other logging woods,
Where events had happened in many strange ways
And yet men had delivered "the goods"
AS the evening wore on just the "bullcook" would stir
To put some more wood in the stove,
And the smoke of assorted tobacco would blur
With the sox and the mittens above.
At ten, the "bull-cook" would blow out the lights,
And the day would be ended-without
The bed bugs and g~raybacks in terrible fights
Would chase some poor lumber jack" out.
About four o'clock the "bullcook" would wake
And rout the poor Sleigh teamsters" out,
And then as the day was about to break
Came the straw PUSHES mighty shout.
Thus, throughout the winter, would day follow day,
Till. at last. we'd hear the birds sing,
And the old logging road" would hold up a sleigh,
Then we knew twas the coming of Spring.
With thoughts that were mingled, both hope and regret,
Our way to the railroad we'd tramp,
When the water was running, the road mighty wet,
We'd leave with the breaking of camp"
