Our Clansman gilts are sired by a good son of Wrigley s f am°Uß The Clansman. He is out of a Giant Defender dam. He is one of the best hacked and Best footed sons of The Clansman that we have ever seen and we them in several states. Mr. Winn, a breeder near Logansport saw some of these gilts a few days ago and said we certainly had eood lengthy, good individuals and that they were larger than the average fill ySin£.

LETTERS FROM OUR READERS

F. W. Fisher Writes of Trip Through Yellowstone National Park JTefft, Ind., Sept. 15, 1920Editor Democrat: Of our trip through the Yellowstone national park, which is 62 miles long and 54 miles wide ana contains 3,114 square miles, 1,992,960 acres in the state of Wyoming' and 126*720 acres within Montana and 2,304 acres in Idaho, is all under U. S. control. The park management, which is under government control, has provided several entrances to the grounds. The park s transportation of tourists is via autos which carry 12 passengers, Including the driver, in each car. Camps and hotels are located at all of the points of interest and tourists

are given fine service at all places and accorded all privileges that a law-abiding tourist could expect. Now and then some one, after being told by the guide the requirements and the law, tries to get cute. He soon finds that' a plain case of violation is soon punished. The camps and hotels have a high-class of service which is given by students fro mour high schools and colleges, who are taking their vacations, and are representative from nearly all states in the Union. Some are well ’trained in literary work, as was and is evidenced by the entertainments they put on each night for the benefit of the tourists. We entered the park from the north, leaving Livingston for Gardner, the nearest railroad point, and arrived at Camp Mammoth with my daughter Effie at 11:30 a. m. After dinner, which’ was served immediately, we were given a guide, and after being informed just what was required of the tourist, were taken first to the formations that can be plainly seen from the camp and had their mysteries told and explained to

us. The coloring of these forma-' \tions wouCT" taker an artist to. portrayT‘“'and are caused by the different chemicals in the rock which, by the action of the hot water that flows continually, keeps adding to their growth and beauty each year. We visited the Devil’s Kitchen and also his Frying Pan. The kitchen is an opening in the mountain which you may enter at the top and by stairs and stepping stones continue down until you think, judging by the heat, that Old Satan Is just beyond 'the next turn. You can hear the roar of his flrp and smell the sulphur burning. The Frying Pan is nearby, and everything has the appearance of a great home-coming. We visited a number of small geysers and hot spring? and then took the stroll to the Buffalo farm, which is hear Camp Mammoth. One of bur U. S. scouts has 14 of the herd 'hear the camp for the tourist who

THE TWICE-A-WEEK DEMOCRAT

wishes to get a snap shot to carry away or to see them as they roam the forest. There are about 5,000 buffaloes in the pars. In the evening of the first day my daughter returned to her home In Livingston and I was left to roam at large over and among the wonderful sights. I was assigned a tent for a lodging place, containing a camp stove and a good bed and everything that one would need for comfort. There were no locks pn the door, and early in the morning a camp boy will knock at your door and inquire if you want a fire. If you do. he is "Johnny on the spot.” In the evening, at the assembly hall, a scientific lecture was given which was well received. The next morning we were on our way to Camp Faithful, named from the never-failing geyser which plays every 70 minutes and shoots a body of hot water heavenward to the height of from 160 to 180' feet. A number of other geysers play, but are not so regular, either in time or amount of water thrown out. In our trip to Camp Faithful we passed through Golden Gate, just a cliff in the rocks which towered on each side hundreds of feet over our heads and having the appearance of gold We viewed the Cascades, Fire Hole Hill, Roaring Mountain, which roars like a volcano. It Is a mountain 8,000 feet above sea level and is enveloped in tongues of fire which burns continuously but never consumes. At this camp a jazz band of seven pieces followed us and at the expense of the company furnished music for the dancers, which was continued after the literary entertainment, until all were ready to retire. On leaving this camp we were conveyed by auto to Lake camp, stopping on the trail to see the important sights and to feed the bears, which come down to the trail every day, knowing the time to expect the tourists. They were there for the cake and sugar that was taken from the tables at meal time just for this purpose. The cars were brought to a standstill and the bears were fed by some and snap shots taken by others while they were being fed, against the rules but yet they did it. At the camps the garbage wagons dump the garbage in the woods some one-half to one mile from camp, and at about 6:30 each day the tourist could go out to the dumping grounds and could see five or six bears up trees, looking and waiting for the wagon and as soon as it came In sight they would come down after their supper. Frequently one could see a mother bear drag a piece of meat off to the timber where she had left her cubs for safety. Then we viewed tne hot water terraces, the mud springs, the Paint Pots, the Grand Canyon, Inspiration Point, Mt. Washburn, 19,338 feet above sea level; the Fossil forest, Uncle Tom’s trail, which we followed to the bottom of the canyon, where from a great rock shot three pencil springs. The Grand fall viewed from the bottom, where the water is 50 feet in depth, one can look upward and see a body of water come over the rocks at a height of 310 feet from the base. Inspiration Point, which climb we made, is some 1,200 feet. The trout fishing was fine. The largest fish we caught weighed 18% pounds, was caught in Three Rivers, but we just caught sight of It In a curio show window as we enter the park. One could continue to write of the wonders of this park for days, but it would take some one whose imagination and power of description was much greater than ours to cOme anywhere near doing it justice.

RECORD OF THE PAST

No Stronger Evidence Can Be Had in Rensselaer. Look well to their record. What they have done many times in years gone by is the best guarantee of future results. Anyone with a bad back; any reader suffering from urinary troubles, from kidney Ills, should find comforting words in the following statement. Mirs. Aaron Hickman, W. Vine St., Rensselaer, says: “I had such severe backaches, headaches and pains across my loins, I couldn’t sleep well. I felt tired and wornout when morning came. My kidneys were weak and I had no strength or aimbition to do anything. I finally got Doan’s Kidney Pills from B. F. Fendig’s Drug Store, and they strengthened my kidneys, relieved me at the backaches and made me feel fine. (Statement given May 31, 1907.) Ptlce 60 c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney rennedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mrs. Hickman had. FosterMilburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N. Y. —Advt.

AMERICANS’ ABROAD IN RED CROSS WORK

United States Citizens Far Away Enthusiastic Members of the Division. Among the most enthusiastic and energetic members of the American Red Cross are those citizens of the United States who live outside the continental boundaries of their country —sons and daughters of the Stars and Stripes residing at the far corners of the earth. These people compose the Insular and Foreign Division of the parent organization, generally known as the “Fourteenth” Division, which has jurisdiction of all territory outside the country proper; that is, Alaska, Porto Rico, Hawaii, Virgin Islands, the Philippines, Guam, and even the island of Yap, which came under our flag as a result of the world war. For the year 1920 this division reported 80,808 paid up members. The main object of this division Is to give our citizens everywhere the opportunity to participate In the work of the organization which stands for the best national ideals. Americans In far places Intensely loyal and patriotic, treasure their membership in the Red Cross as the outward expression of their citizenship. It is another tie to the homeland and to each other. There are chapters of this division in Argentine, Bolivia, Brazil, Canal zone, Chile, China, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, England, France, Guam, Guatemala, Haiti, Hawaii, Honduras, Japan, Manchuria, Netherlands, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Porto Rico, Siberia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Turkey, Uruguay, Venezuela and Virgin Islands. During the war these scattered members of the Red Cross contributed millions In money, and millions of dollars’ worth of necessary articles for the men in service, and sent many doctors and nurses to France. At the same time they carried on an excellent Home Service in their respective communities for the families of those who had gone to war, and In some regions gave large sums of money and immeasurable personal service to the relief of disaster and disease victims. The division Is now establishing service clubs in foreign porta for the benefit of sailors In the American Merchant Marine, making plans to aid Americans In trouble in foreign lands and completing arrangements for giving immediate adequate relief in case of disaster. It is the Fourteenth Division’s part in the great Peace Time program of the American Red Cross.

RED CROSS ASSISTS DISABLED VETERANS

The American Red Cross Is carrying on a wide program of service for the disabled World War veterans receiving treatment in United States Public Health hospitals, and those being trained through agencies of the Federal Board for Vocational Education. In each of the Public Health Service hospitals Red Cross workers devote their time to the general welfare of the service men from the day they enter the receiving ward until they are discharged. After the soldier’s discharge the Red Cross continues its friendly service through the Home Service Section in his own community. The Red Cross maintains a convalescent house at all of the hospitals, where patients can amuse themselves after they are well enough to be up and around. Parties and picture shows in the wards are also furnished! with occasional excursions when convalescence comes. * Great service has been rendered by the Red Cross In mental cases in identifying those who have appeared in state hospitals for the Insane, and helping them secure compensation due from the Bureau of War Risk Insurance. In the Federal Board’s various district offices the Red Cross worker, acting with the Home Service Section, makes necessary loans to the men, arranges suitable living conditions, helps collect evidence and supply facts to the Board, assists In “appealing cases” and settles various personal difficulties for the meh. The workers also follow up and aid all men who discontinue training. The Red Cross agents find men "lost” to the Board, help clear up delayed cases and aid the college counselors in their friendly work with the men. Many Red Cross chapters have set up recreation facilities, and In some instances living clubs, so these victims of h*™ qttrgctlvb surround-

Jpgs and the fun which must go with effective school work. To the American Red Cross Institute for the Blind near Baltimore, Md., more than half of all the Americans blinded in the World War have come for training. The Institute, through the Red Cross, long ago conducted an exhaustive industrial survey to determine the vocations for which blind men could be fitted. As a result it la putting forth well trained men equipped to meet the social, civic and economic requirements of their respective communities. /

Aid for Spanish Red Cross.

The Iberian chapter of the American Red Cross, composed of Americans resident in Spain, has Just contributed S4BO to a fund being raised by the Spanish Red Cross and the league of Red Cross Societies for the purpose of fighting malaria.

THE SOLE DRAWBACK.

The village politicians were gathered in the postottice discussing the possibilities for the coming local campaign. There was a lamentable lack of congressional timber. None of the candidates could meet the demands of the town solons. Finally Lew Parker had n brilliant Idea. Spitting authoritatively In the general direction of the cuspidor he remarked: "Boys, I’ll tell you the name of a good man, a mighty good man, a man we could win with. It’s old Cap Ingersoll.” And then he added regretfully, “But daru him, he’s dead." —American Legion.

Speed Mania.
