Hut also to SKKM to know more ahout pvcrythina than anybody else, without Ink ing the trouble to know, is an-' other road to success, much traveled. This region lo ltonflls and others that live in it is what tho . heart of China was to the .emperor, Tho Middle Kingdom." ' It Is a big country and n high country. ' ' , The "Chief" is Just now rolling out ol' l.a Junta, 1 1)00 feat above sea level, going through wide, flat plains nearly a mile high, stretch- i lug iih far as you can see. In Den ver, off to the north, tne slop oi the Capitol ltuilding are exactly a mile above the ocean. On the right as you go west you see the dee:) shadows of mountuln ranges other thousunds ot feet high. Cattle browse in fields of stand ing cornstalks or withered brown grass on the. field, their hacks humped up by Ihe cold. The men, too, are patient uud hardy out here. You see severul of them standing 1'lfty feet opart on the Ice of a small stream, fishing through holes. And think of the fish In tho dark, freez ing waters below. : i . It Is hard for steam-heated, flat dwellers to realize what 1lfa Is on the average, hard also lor sun bathers In. Florida and or those (hat live in New Orleans and along tho warm Gulf Coast. However, the fish wouldn't lenvt their icy water and the fishermen wouldn't leave their places on tho Ice even If you offered them "sun hack" pajamas and a spot on the Miami Bands. They like it here, like the cold, like the hardships, prefer coats lined with sheepskin to sun back pajamas, t ICvcry American should seo all of this wide, beautiful country West, Fast, North and South going by one railroad and returning by an other, and without fail muklng one trip through the Panama Canal. The pessimist especially should sec his country, from Ihe giant trees of Washington and Oregon In the Northwest, to the pnlm trees and sand beaches of Florida. A trip rrom tho Atlantic lo the Pacific, means only throe nights on Ihe train now, and the comfort of modern travel is unbelievable, sol id trains ol' sleel cars, running smoothly, with every comfort of n first class hotel and the additional pleasure of going somewhere and seeing the world as you go. You sympathize with the turtle because he cannot go far. Hut at least he goes as far us ho can. You feel sorry for the Texas "lick" brushed from a cow, nnd un able in his whole lifetime to crawl more than two or three feet In search of nnother cow's leg to slarl in business again. Don't bo a turtle or a Texas tick. Travel, seo your country. , In this land ol' marvelous roads, a little automobile will take you everywhere, cost you little, less than staying at home for you don't "go out nights'' when trnvellng. Huy your rnllroad ticket, or get your ear and start. , . Would Abandon Road SALFM, Ore., Jan. 15.
