The event thus recognized began one of the most romantic and difficult migrations ever recorded in history. Beautiful cities and towns now lie all over the territory that was then a hazardous' waste. It seems almost incredible that within the lifetime of living people, all these regions were a track- less wilderness. ; These early attempts to cross this mighty desert were even more perilous than the voyages of the early explorers who crossed the Atlantic ocean. The greater part of these daring adventurers left their bones to bleach on the sands of the desert. The people who set out from the eastern cities on these ventures knew that they might never return. It is hard to tell which was the greater peril that they encountered, the hands of hostile Indians and outlaws, or the perils of mountains and desert. The Indians were naturally exasperated at seeing their choicest possessions gobbled up by the palefaces. They took their last stand on the plains with the feeling that they must do or die to save a remnant of their old empire. As we ride along our smooth roads in.our highly developed automobiles, we can not conceive what it must have been to drive a covered wagon over mighty mountains having scarcely a suggestion of any trail. Or what it was to travel day after day without water, deceived by futile mirages. Their toils and sufferings and sacrifices have given us this great united country, held together by its bands of steel and wire and ether waves, never again to be separated, and ever drawing closer together as communication improves.

They would be strong and optimistic even when skies are darkest and weather chilliest. But being human, they are sensitive to their environment. They are happier in sunshine than in storm. And so it has always been human nature to consider the springtime as the most hopeful season. People get a reaction from the changes of nature, the ascent of the sun to higher altitudes, the growing warmth, the return of bird favorites, the revival of nature, the prospects for coming harvest These changes indicate a rising tide on the part of nature. As the flowing tide of the ocean fills the flats and hollows, so the revived activity of nature puts new energy into peoples minds and hearts. It is a great time for new beginnings. - A - COVERED WAGON CENTENNIAL 11 V YesterdayThe above reading are taken from THE) JOURNAL'S barometer at 1:00 o'clock each afternoon except Sunday.

Packard) A rotted mawaot frA Cel ptene-new adventure tomorrow,, right, Good-night- -- The hour for the party arrived and within ten minutes the guests had all come, each bringing a present. Billy unwrapped them in a frenzy of excitement. He paused just long enough over one gift to see what it was and then passed on to tne next. There was an effort to play the game of pinning the tad on tne childien got donkey, but the restless before there had been h ! even one turn around. Billy himself got into a light with two of his guests who wanted to play with his birthday presents. -- By . the time., jeffeshments, ..crc over he was in such a state of nervous tension that he alternated between acting silly to hold the center of the stage and bullying the children who had come to play with him. When the las--t child had gone Billy had reached a condition of exhaustion, which made it necessary to give hfan a warhrbath anu put him at once to bed. There Is a technique in parties-- . A half dozen invited guests are enough. Haphazard play among excited youngsters thrown together thus on a very special occasion is almost sure to be disastrous. The-- wise mo ther has caref ully prepared enough games to keep every participant actively busy most o the time. Those which necessitate a good deal of standing around are almost sure to be unsuccessful. The secret of the good party foriitUecklkireir lies in making those' present forget themselves in some common activity. BIRTHDAY PRESENTS Howard took the first money he ever earned straight to the store and bought a beautiful, He long coveted set of darts brought it home and showed it proudyl to his mother. That certainly is a grand game, and how nice of you to remember that it is BilJys s face, Well, anyway Billy's birthday! What do you 'mean1 This Isn't for Billy This Is for my own self. I got it with the first money I ever earned, and Its mine. His motner said nothing. Next morning he came dowrn early to find his mother placing the carefully wrapped packages .which contained Billy's birthday presents at his place at the breakfast table. Howard watched uncomfoitably Do you think maybe Billy woulij like my box of magic tricks? You remember when I got it last yeai, he said he wished he had one. Ill go get it, and you wrap it up, Howards face. Well anyway ent his expression changed from to expectancy disappointment Thats no present, he said witn the dreadful frankness of childhood. Thats just an old thing. Presents are- new. Then seeing As Billy opened Howards pres-than- k you, Howie. Howard disappeared. In a few moments he came back holding In his arm the box of darts. Here, Billy. Here Is your real birthday present fronj me. I was just teasing you with that old magic box. Here, happy birthday. And he thrust the game into his brothers arms and ran out of the room. Lessons in unselfishness cannot be forced. They must be learned through the suggestions of home atmosphere and through the natural course of events. birth-Howa- rd ' Th Trk? a fellow, has' married a girl whom h I houglti u prrffy as n lo find out nfier the honeymoon Hiat at best she was only a talking Sinr. picture Hud-urMany pic-lu- re n , Inherent Ambition Every child Imin In OIkt Armner-ga- u 1$ bred up In th tradition of the Passion play.
