HOLSTEIN LEADER LOCAL AND PERSONAL W Such is life in the underworld of the city, and of church and social serâ€" vice work I have not learned much as yet, but on Sunday we hope to hear good sermons and meet with church going people here. There are many hospitals, homes, orphanages in the city, as also fine schools of all kincs and fine churches of all denominaâ€" tions. There are many wealthy men living here who have built charitable institutions and the scenery and cliâ€" mate attract tourists from east and west. _ This year alone, they say, 14, 500 will be added to the population Amongst the public buildings 1 saw toâ€"day, were the State Capital from the dome of which the mountains can be viewed through a glass for 200 miles : the city auditorium which acâ€" commodates 15000 people, the Cour!

He says "I was amazed at the magniâ€" ficent setting as 1 looked westward from the peristyle over the pools, ovâ€" er the broad green grass, carried up over the dark trees and on up to the skyâ€"line of the lofty Rockies that at the moment were blazing with the rays of the setting sun. Why, nothâ€" ing I have seen compares with that sight for beauty." Mr. Jno. Sinclair Describes the Trip. Recently Mr. Harvey Groat receivâ€" ed the following interesting and deâ€" scriptive letter from Mr. John Sinâ€" clair, relating his trip to Colorado, and has kindly forwarded it for pu»â€" lication that many South Grey friends may learn of their welfare : en route to and at their new home near the mountains : Dear Friends Well, we are all here safe and sound. Arrived at 9.30 Thursday, 2 hours late, and which means 52 hours travel, there being 2 hours difference in the time between here and Toronto Mrs. 8. was sick after the first 12 hrs. but is better today. I have been down town all day and it is a very busy place indeed. The days are quite warmâ€"96 above, but a fine shower is falling as I write. Our baggage came toâ€"day and only one trunk was examâ€" ined,â€"they trusted us about the other two. There seemed to be abundance of shade for stock all through until we got into Colorado. There is as much timber in Iowa and Illinois as there ever was, just oak and elm, about the size of an apple tree in Ontario. We did not see much of Chicago as we got in at 11.30 p. m. and were transâ€" ferred by motor bus to Dearborn St. station where we got on the Colorado Express at 12.05 and I noted that for nearly three quarters of an hour we were still within the city after we lefi the depot. and B yP ' gfflm' _FEVER We crossed the mighty Mississippi: early on Tuesday morning at Burlingâ€" ton and the muddy Missouri at Omaha at 4 p.m., and they were indeed great and grand but not so attractive to me as the babbling brooks of Grey Counâ€" ty. Many of the ranches had only a hole scooped out and allowed to fill up when it rained, from which the stock drank. It looked more like a hog wallow than anything else to me. We missed too the cedars and maples and also the rail fences of Ontario. The houses are all frame and painted white or drab and quite small, especâ€" ially in Col. In iowa and Nebraska there were silos and stables but hay was all stacked and after the corn ears are gathered from the stalks, the cattle feed on them all winter. The journey out was interesting to me as we came through the corn belt interspersed with great fields of wheat in the stook, and others alreaâ€" dy threshed for about 800 miles of the way. At daylight Thursday morning we had entered Colorado and for some time did not see anything growing but the buffalo grass with no sign of habitation there but further on, a small shack occasionally with some cattle or horses feeding. We now came to where only sage brush grew except where possible to irrigate and here we saw crops equal to those at any point. Alfalfa and sugar beets prevail but all vegetables grow luxâ€" uriantly here. Denver, Col., August 4th 1922 Mr. Robt.

Mr. and Mrs. Horney and Robbie or Goderich, recently visited Mrs. H‘s. brother, George Walmsley, and aunt, Mrs. P. Mohan. They were on their way home from Owen Sound. In a letter from Mr. J. Sinclair he says _ they arrived in Denver 62 hours after leaving Holstein. At Chicago they boarded the Coloraco Express and went over the Burlington route, "The Scenic Highway." For 800 miles they passed through great corn fields, interspersd with large wheat fields, but they missed the cedars _ and maples, the running streams, the rugged hills and rail fences of Grey County. _ They were interested in crossing the mighty Mississippi and the muddy Missouri. There had been a cloudburst about 25 miles from Denver and hundreds of Denver motorists were stalled in the mud. This is the rainy season but from now on there will be little rain before Christmas. The â€" therâ€" mometer registered 90 degrees above but the heat was not oppressive and the evenings were cool.

The Women Teacher‘s Fedâ€" eration took up the fight of Baira‘s erstwhile school ma‘am and besides threatening to black4ist the section, brought the matter to the attention brought the matter to the attention of the Minister of Education for Onâ€" tario, who in . turnwrote the Brant Board for a full explanation of the affair.
