The wo officers scouted the country all ight long last Saturday but did not even see a bear. Some real excitement was furnished today when a big St. Bernard dog that has attached itself to our com- pany routed out a skunk. ‘Nuff sed!

A cozy ranch house not far off was the mecca for those whose appetite was not in There a cool spring, a couple of fig trees and a real apple orchard proved popular. Close to camp a small pond takes the ; appearance of Lake Superior to the | desert hikers who have seen no water | larger than a well for so long. It is | only the size of Walnut Hill's wading pool but is a true oasis in the desert. | The Manila mines are located but a short distance from our camp here at Blgin. Although these had not | been worked for three years, the equipment was there and some of the boys did a little mining for some new | experience. In this section there are several wealthy mines. The ore is rich in lead and copper and in some cases there are veins of gold. The exploring party descended into the main shaft 160 feet and followed some | of the leads that wound in and out be- neath the ground for over 400 feet. We who visited this mine can now appreciate the lot of the miner. In some of the caverns there was not an inch to spare in passing through and an earthquake or cave-in would have | spelled death for all. We expect an early start tomorrow and another encounter with an “enemy” within the next day or | two.

Evidence of the extent to which the British army in France was agitated by the executicn of Captain Fryatt is found in the accompanying pictures, showing shells marked *To Captain Fryatt’s murderers” and ‘“Remember Captain Frytt” readyto be fired into the German lines. London reported last month that Professor Kruckman said in the Kreuz Zeftung Captain Fry- att was shot with the deliberate in- tention of exasperating British opin- ion and enabling pan-German annex- ationists and opponents of the German chancellor to say: “FEngland will never forgive us nov We must fight her to the last drop of blood.” This con- tention, of course, has been denied by pro-Germans, who defend the exe- cution of Fryatt on the ground that he while nder of the British steamship Brussels tried to ram a German submarine which had sum- moned him to halt and submit to visit and search. They call Fryatt an outlaw. comir Gets Attention— First, because of its wonderfully delicious flavor— Then again, be- cause it is ready to eat—fresh and crisp from the package.

LL schemes of taxation and distribution of wealth are physical impossibilities along Utopian lines. No theories of the most altruistic will ever be able to change entirely, the methods, customs and laws governing the present civilization. The only protection that you have, is to plunge into the whirl and fix a place for yourself and family, where you auto- matically without revaluation, can participate in the unearned increment. F you don_’t own land you are out of har- mony with the march of civilization. The first man who fixed boundaries for land was Cain. From that day to this, it has been absolutely necessary for every man to own land in the country in which he lives in order to par- ticipate in the unearned increment occurring every day as long as humankind multiplies.
