and Mrs. F. J. Merrill, Manchester, 
who has been in the West engaged 
in railroad construction since his 
graduation from Tech. some two or

Last Saturday evening he gave an

being run.

has been working for several months

by four and six horse teams, although 
some automobiles of better makes 
were used. Gasoline sold for 50 
cents a gallon. 
The beauties of Los Angeles, 
Calif., and of Salt Lake City, Utah,

most beautiful cities he had ever visit-
