W. F. Cole The followiug letter from Rev. W.F. Colo will prove Interesting reading to his many friends in this vicinity: Al,A5iOS., Coi.o., April 5, 1010. Dear Friends: I wish to write to my many friends in Red Cloud thru the columns of your paper. First I want to thank you for the many visits I have had in the past with the friends thru your' paper. We have all enjoyed the weekly visits that it has made ever since we first struck Red Cloud. I am very sorry that I did not get to Red Cloud once, more be fore Jeaviug the state. I had thought I would but I became so much worse that I was afraid to stay nuy longer. First I presume that you would Tike to know just where we are. We are just about In the center of the state east and west and about thirty miles north of the New Mexico line. Then in regard to up in the air, we are up some for we are 7540 feet above sea level. You see we are even a mile above vou neonlc. This is strictly an irrigated country. The irrigating is done by wells and a dam in the river above us. There are many targe Mow ing wells. The main crops here are potatoes, neas. barley, spring wheat and oats. I have a very good church, 130 mem bers, a nice cement block church, with basement and Sunday School rooms. Tims far our reception has been very cordial and all seem to be doing their best to make us feci at home. I am feeling very much better tho I am tiot entirely well. I do not have the asthma here at all but the brouchal tubes are soro yet and I get tired when I preach twice and teach a Sinday School class, I havo a due mens' class. Tho children are both real well and seem to like It here very much. Mrs. Cole Is not feellug very well, she was all tired out beiore suo came and then I guess that the altitude Is nffecting her a little, I think after she gets tested aud a little used to the altitude that she will bo all right. We are praying for Red Cloud these days aud are trusting that the Lord will get hold of many of the hearts of men there and lead them to accept Christ as their personal Savior. Please each one consider this a per sonal letter and write to us. Your friend and brother and family. W. P. Cole.
