HE IS HARO AT WORK (Continued from page 11 cials of the road live here and also the Tows or working men. There are about 60" men working on the road and four engineers. We have own own mess, that is the engineers and the road foremen. We have the very best of everything that can be obtained up here and the beauty of it is that U. S. pays all of the bills. There is a very strict grading of rank here just as there is in the army. The Tow get rice to eat and sleep on the ground out |cf dbors. the rodman, chainmen and native foremen get roast beef and rice and we and the white foremen and engineers get the very best that can be obtained. We have some very amusing experiences out on the work. The natives up here in the mountains think that the Instruments are Roentgen rays and you can imagine what happens when perchance one of them get in line with the instrument and he has something hid on his person. Our Tows on the surveying party are very anxious to learn English and mathematics and it is very amusing to hear them repeating your orders and talking about them to the other natives in their own language for an hour after yen have given them. Eveverything here goes by the sign language until you get the natives to understand you. ’f you want something cleared out of the way you take the native to the instrument, point your hand in the direction you want cleared and say bolo. If he does not run kick him. Most of the men who come over here leave their morality at San Francisco, and so things out here generally run riot. The foremen here seem to think it is an impossibility to get men to work unless ycu cuss them, and so the first English you hear the natives saying is cuss words. A good many of the foremen here are cld army men, and while they are good hearted fellows, have missed too many boats and have all of the vices of the east and west combined except the deceit. I don't find the natives so bad so far and all I have to do is to speak firmly and let them see tnat I mean what I say.

The mountains here are a beautiful sight and everything iS pleasant to live. Fine water, cool nights and beautiful scenery. Our camp is located about 1,200 feet above sea level. Farmers here cultivate cordon a slope of from 45 to 60 degrees. The road here is in solid rock all of the way and nearly every shovel full of material has to be blasted out. One can hear shots going off all day long and the echoes from the shots ring out like the proverbial echoes of Switzerland. The main guy is not here now. He is laid up in Manila and all of us are wating anxious’y ti see what he is going to do when he gets back. Work will be harder then, and as it is our hours are r hours a day. A fellow has no time to get lazy here. We are not expected to do any work at all that a native can do just as well, but there is so much work in our line tnat they cannot do that we can keep busy. We have a man to carry our instruments our level books and in fact to wait on us m general and another to clear the way f Or U s to see. I taught mv instrument bearer to set the instrnmeat, and while he sets up the instrument I check up my notes and so J can certainly keep the transit men bus hng, and I can hear him cursing a blue streak all o f the wav to his men to hustle up. We are expecting to go over to Bohole in a few' weeks aM theD h ~ -me Cre Bureau Pub
