We hail Alturas, Califor

the landscape that shows
the great Merrill, Malin,
Tule Lake region; the land
scape that presents the pine
and) timber belt betwee'n
Tule Lake and Alturas
and We say, "Welcome,
Alturas, with you at one
end of the Modoc Northern
and Klamath Falls at the
other, we will build swiftly
the great country which the j
new railroad runs through."
There is a wholesomeness
about Alturas and Modoc!

county people that Klamath
Falls likes. They are our

sort of folks'and we believe
that we are theirs. One
thing is sure and certain:
Alturas people have the
fibre and' the gizzards to
keep after a thing until
they get "it; arid 'this' we
admire greatly.
