 he could enter a small figure 6, to denote the amount of time

I realize that much wiser heads than mine hare figured on 

 the problem of recording time of Job-to-Job travel, but even so 

 it is not always clear to ne Just what should be charged there

 of the clear skies and bright sunshine and of my fortunate 

 friends on the Sierra (By that timo the storms of January will

Uhilc I have not had an opportunity to travel over the
