A. Stroller Writes
About Trip Home
By A. STROLLER
Well, here 1 am back in good,
! old Nebraska after several
p months’ residence in the South
west. Be assured that my home
state, especially at this beauti
! ful season of the year, looks un
usually good after such a long
absence.
As Frontier readers may re
call, the writer left Nebraska
last September and traveled by
train to Phoeniz. Ariz., to spend
the Winter. He is compelled to
do that on account of his health.
After spending many years in
the rigorous climate of the Mid
west, he became afflicted with
asthma and can no longer live
here during the cold weather.
In the mild climate of Southern
Arizona, he gets complete relief.
So do a great many other peo
ple who are afflicted with as'
thma, sinus trouble and kindred
diseases. Consequently, people
thus afflicted flock to Arizona
from all parts of the country to
spend the Winter.
When I last wrote from
Phoenix. I was in the midst of
packing, preparatory to lea*
ing on my long trip to Ne
braska.
It was a hectic week and I
put in long hours at the job.
There are so many things to
think about at such a time one
is always liable to forget some
thing. The best way to do, the
writer has found, is to make out
a complete list and follow it
carefully, checking off item by |
item. As a matter of fact, he ,
doesn’t think he forgot anything
on his recent trip from his razor
to his umbrella.
Then, in addition to packing,
there were many other things
to do. Had to buy a ticket, get
some clothes pressed, finish up
some work at the YMCA cafe- j
teria, attend a conference of the
“Y” staff, say goodbye to a
number of friends, etc., etc. It
was a busy and hectic week.
The last day I spent in Phoe
nix was a very pleasant one for,
after locking my trunks and ac
companying them to the depot
to be checked, I relaxed to some
extent and went out to my
daughter’s house for dinner. She
called for me at 2:30 in the af
ternoon, we drove to her home
a couple of miles away and had
dinner and a good visit.
Then, she packed me a de
licious lunch and we drove lo
the depot in ample lime to
board the 5 o'clock Santa Fe
train for the North.
When I left Phoenix, the
weather was quite hot, but,
when the train pulled into Ash
Fork in the Northern part of Ari
zona late that night, it was
very cold. It has been cold in Ne
braska since I arrived home;
but not nearly as cold as it was
in Northern Arizona. I needed
the heavy overcoat I carried
with me.
In future articles, the writer
wijl describe his trip home and
try to give the reader some im
pressions of the scenery along
the way.

l Trip.)
