(SEAL) UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR dear San Juaners: He sailed by met in his big Cadillac stepping it up to the distantaneous velocity of 80 per. I was afoot. I like to walk, it is such a safe and peaceful way to go places, and it is conductive to clear thinking. But my friend it is highly fitting that I should call him my friend, that is what he always calls me when he is drunk, which is at frequent and uncertain intervals. My friend he had vanished over the him hill I must contemplate with an understanding heart as a man who is doing his best to meet a new responsibility which has been thrust upon him. It becomes his worry, every so often, to dispose of more money than he ever had at one time in his life till a few years ago. It taxes his ability to the utmost, but hes doing about as well as the average man would do under the circumstances. He hasnt yet discovered how safe and pleasant it is to walk, or to drive slowly. Thats something he may learn in due course of drinks. The next time I saw him he was talking on the sidewalk with two amused men. But he was not amused; he talked loud and excited, and seeing me he called me his friend, and tried to beckon me into the argument. He lacked hat and the the big forty-gallo- n gay, glittering shirt which he usually wears, his face was bruised and peeled, and he had no shoes. I had no appetite for his argument, but a whetted eagerness for dinner for which I was hurrying home, so I passed without a word. Now I might have known what would happen, if I had thought, instead of anticipating the golden rebake and delicious bowl of yogurt awaiting me at home. When I had got myself seated and armed with a spoon, the door bell rang. How provoking! Dropping the spoon I went impatiently to the door. It was my friend; he had followed me slowly with feet sore and lacerated from walking without shoes. My friend with the dilapidated countenance implored me to listen to his story. I must listen to it he was afraid I would close the door. Thats vhat I wanted to do, my mouth was watering for that heaping spoonful of yogurt which I had all but deposited. The distress of his tone and appearance admonished me to listen; I couldnt find it in my supposed-to-b- e friendly soul to do otherwise. In words of bitter complaint he related that while he slept, somebody had stolen the shirt right off of his back; they had taken his hat and his shoes. They had taken $160.25 right out of his pocket! The country was full of thieves and liars, and none of the stores would trust him for a pair of shoes. He didnt say what had happened to his face, but his feet were heap sore, without much from walking shoes. He had to walk to Allan Canyon, 15 miles away, and he had come to his good friend for a pair of shoes. I couldnt listen to him and look at his wretchedness without glimpsing the cruel aspects of his world, even though I was eager to dispose of him and get back to my yogurt. It was a wicked burden that had been thrust upon him the necessity every so often of getting a lot of infernal money off of his hands, he was toiling in My tribulation under the weight of bureau of Land it.

But regardless of ed by metes and bounds within all that, and whether I got back to that yogurt before it soured, this friend of mine had to have shoes, I couldnt see him hobble off for the big walk in his worn-ou- t sox. It was a huge relief to me and to him to find just the kind and size of shoes he wanted, and when he got his smarting feet into them, and laced them up, he looked at me with all the elements of gratitude left in his 1 bleared brain and declared, You my heap perty good pren. He disappeared towards Allan Canyon, and when I got hold of that spoon, I thought how very fortunate for my pren that he had this good chance to learn how safe and pleasant it is to walk, and how, when he reached the creek in Cottonwood, he could lie down on his belly and drink from the sparkling stream something more refreshing than ever he got out of a bottle. sec. 34, T. 40 8., R. 13 E, SL Mer., Utah.
