Steamship company. Philadelphia.
speaks the words, and We are here
TO repeat them to give whatever
emphasis possible.
In other words Mr.. Miller is right
as a fox, in the parlance OF the
day. The same paper goes on 10
give quotations from a number Of
persons visiting in the Valley, and
TO say that that Is the kind of peo-
pie needed to be brought down here
and shown.
incidentally. we noticed the ar
ticle was written by Jane Andersen.
We think Ii fitting and fair to say
that Mrs. Andersen Is a compare
lively new convert 70 the Valley,
and comes under the head OF the
kind Of people needed in the Valley.
or course we might not be so
strong about her husband, who
prints the paper she was writing for.
but Mrs. Andersen is a newcomer
to the writer's fold. and We think 1t
proper to bid her welcome.

Austin to help her husband start

Usher Of the Denver Post, came
TO town yesterday and was shown
oyer the Valley.
Mr.. Bonfils said he saw a
richer land IN his life and added
that the people OF Colorado and
south Texas should get better &C

our people should come and spend

full. but a most interesting place"
He was almost astounded at the air
service furnished travellers out Of
Brownsville, and is leaning toward
extending his stay for a flight TO
Mexico City.
Mr.. Bonfils IS publisher Of a news
paper. which blankets the western
country. When he goes back home
he would please Val.s- people pow
erfully. II he would just say a bit
about what he cav down here. Com
ing from him it would carry untold
weight.
