Show The Old Settler MARBLES . . . By Albert R. Lyman honored i - My dear San Juaners: It was four days since one of our men had had a knife kicked into his leg at the branding correl. He had managed to keep along with us over Clay Hill and to Cow Tank, though he could not help u;. with the herd, and we hoped he would hold out till we got back to civili- zation. But his wound was desperately sore and discolored as if it might have blood poison. In my middle teens I was much concerned for what was to become of our man, and our roundup, which contained the main part of our assets. The herd should be kept moving, and we needed as many men as we began the roud-u- p with a month before. As we came slowly down over the rocks towards Dripping Spring- when the sun was low, my father came around to my side of the herd, "When we get these cattle down in the gulch, he began, "I want you to put your saddle on old Jess, and start right off for Bluff. Well smiply have to wait here till you get somebody to take care of Bill, and somebody to take his place. Theres a whole lot depending on the way you do this job, not only the herd, but maybe Bills life as -- well. It was seventy-fivlong, winding miles of trees and brush and rocks to Bluff. I knew the trail well in the day-timbut this was to be night.

Jess was a free and easy traveler, and I had him take the fastest gait I thought he could keep up for miles. seventy-fiv- e The last nimbus of day had faded over Mossback Mesa before I reached Grand Flat at the foot of the mountain, and from there on I went more by to the south-eas- t instinct than by sight. Somewhere east of Kane Gulth, my intuitions failed me, and I was in great an ixiety of distress. I knew the trail headed deep gulches on the right and left into which I would get in serious trouble if I missed the way, and the only sane thing for me was to play safe by waiting for daylight. But I was aflame with eagerness that whole outfit to be going there for me among the waiting Bill with his throbbing big rocks I was in leg unable to sleep torment. I pulled my saddle from Jess reeking back and tied him to a tree. After while I lay down with my saddle as a pillow, but feared to sleep, lest I should overdo- for it had been a long hard day, and I was dog tired. The hours dragged, but I was too mucli wrought up to doze. It was a long agonizing fight. I didnt realize it then, but I was at one of the ims of my life, portant where 1 was to have it ground into me, that the only sane thing is to recognize and accommodate to the inevitable. But time seemed to stop. The very stars quit moving, while infinite silence and infinite duration conspired against me in that dark solitude; In the long and hours of that night, I the fought punishment as a captive wolf fighting the steel bars of his cage. I got nowhere till towards morning, as it began to filter into my consciousness that I was suffer-munder a mistaken notion: I could not resolve away the unchangeable by refusing to accept the fact of its being. From what had seemed to be a futile conflict as a tempest in a tea pot, I reached a blessed conclusion. It was what somebody had learned and expressed before, but it had fallen Butch, hey, the trust 111. TRAPS Tow MBbJT NwClASSieS, Twenty F UDGIH j c A : M j Steel ies fvt aw That w i A CAANCE WiT4 OUR.

Julius Caesar was bidden to beware of the Ides of March. And sure enough, on the fatal day, he fell in the Senate, pierced by the daggers of Brutus and the rest. It would be a great blessing to mankind if the peoples of the world should beware of the Ides of March and all the days of the year in which men prepare for war. Consider the condition of the world now with billions being spent to prepare for war. But, one may ask, what is the good in considering something that one can do nothing about? That is indeed the question. Let us hope that the winds, proverbially active in the present month, may blow away the ideas that trouble men and prepare men for the balmy days of spring, when all the trees on all the hills open their thousand leaves, At this point, I confess there is nothing I can do or say about it worth while.
