Show NEWS IB LAMMING By Albert and Gladys Lyman PROGRAM GIVEN In the primary program given Sunday evening by the third ward more than 100 children took part, and 20 teachers supervised the different classes in their various exercises. The attendance was good, for this is the kind of program that brings people out, not only because they want to see what their own children can do, but they are interested in the performance of little kids, even though they have none of their own. The long hours of free service given by these teachers, to sing and recite, to perform in harmony and keep in good order, deserves to be especially commended. FIND NEW ARCH One of the important events of the recent pilgrimage in jeeps to was the discovery of a new stone arch, different in some ways to the many arches discovered before. It was discovered by Dr. Norwood Porter, who got up very early Friday morning and went exploring in the bright moonlight among the bare rock gulches below our camp s. at the foot of Later on, the company went to see it, getting as near as they could in jeeps and then hiking down over the rocks, and along sliding surfaces above big, deep water holes, where it is not exactly safe to go, and even then they got to within twenty feet of the arch. No human being has ever gone through what might be called Porters Impassible Portal, and no one is likely ever to go through it. It spans the canyon just below a deep jump off, and the top of the arch was at one time the rim of the jump, and also the lower rim of a great deep tank, the bottom of which was worn near to the vertical wall below it, and broke through at the bottom, and as floods wore the bottom of the canyon still deeper, what remained of the lower side of the tank became but an arch across the gulch. Apparently these big water holes never go dry, and they have in them a peculiar genus of little silvery toads, that crawl up the vertical rock from the water and sing an eerie little song so loud and harsh you might imagine they were as big as rabbits.

Some of the landscapes given there may be much as they were 3,600 years ago, and though many of the scenes of action are no doubt very different to what they actually were in the days when Pharochs daughter went to bathe in the river, and when the Red Sea opened a dry path for the retreating Israelites, they yet leave you with a feeling that you have gone back y over the centuries to Egypt, and watched one of the worlds most gripping dramas. Conceding that much of the details of the action are purely imagination, they yet suggest a vivid reality of people and places which before were but meaningless names printed in a book. far-awa- WANTED: GENTLE RAIN Our drouth is becoming phenomenal; not only because the weather has not been in the habit of acting this way, but because it is such sharp contrast to what is happening in other places where they are getting fourteen inches of water in one night, and breaking all known records for the United States. We would like a gentle shower, but we do like a dry climate, with many days of cloudless skies, and prefer that it should go on as it is instead of washing us off the earth in one night.
