JULIUS CLOUD "When I was born in 1895, there was no town here - only the depot and the agency and a country store over where the grade school is now. It was all Indian land from Pagosa to Utah. Not many houses. Tribal members lived in teepees and it was a good life, There were teepees all u:p a..11d down the rivers • 11 These are only the beginnings of Julius Cloud's memories of the old days in the Pine River Valley-. Julius :,1"2-s born on May 30, 1895~ the sori of Edwin and Ruth Cloud. He lives on the same nlace where he was born 3½ miles south of tmm,· 11 Ignacio was a field then~ .John Green used to plow a piece of ground down by the station and I liked to follow along behind and play in the soft dirt, 11 · Julius enrolled in the boarding school and then at the Allen Day School and, finally, was transferred to the Indian School at Santa Fe, N.M. 11 It was OK ·at Santa F'e - not very good food, but ·we got to meet Indian kids from all over the country. Julian Baker and I and several other Utes were there. We had school and learned to drive a car and played football and baseball, which I really liked. 11 After three years Julius returned from Santa Fe. He and several of his friends started an all Indian Baseball Team. PWe played Mancos, Cortez, :Pagosa and Silverton and by charging admission to the games we paid for all of our trips and equipment. We traveled to and from our games in a Model 11 T' 1 • No ma.tter how deep the mud was, we never got stuck. Car·s aren't that good today. Later we got a ·J:.fodel 11 A1t to carry more people , but the Model 11 TII was the best c~r, . After ·we won the champ ion-~ ship at Pagosa, we disbanded the t~am. James Baker was one of our best players. He later got on one of the professional teams in Denvero 11 Julius I'emembGrs the store H.'t'. Burns had up near the Catholic Church9 The building later was moved to dmm-tm•m Ignacio across from the drug store and for a while was used to show the old-fashioned picture 8hows, J'ulius liked to go to the pow-wows. Some good ones were held at Uairajo Springs, south of present day Towaoc, Julius learned to sing for t~e dances. He still lmows so~e of the songs, but doesn't participate any more because "it's too much effort. 11 ·when he was about 20, the U.S. ·-entered the First World War and ,Tul:tus was drafted. He and Andy Frost, Frank Baker, George Bro1m and J'or.'11 Hays were sent to Camp Cody, N.M. for basic training. From there he was shipped to Camp Dixon, New Jersey, and 1'rom there to England and France. On the trip east, .Julius I troop stopped :Ln Chicago. He had never seen such big buildings or such smoky skies. Julius remembers, It 11as so bad they had to turn on electric lights during the day and railroads ran overhead on platforms two or three levels high! 11 As they left New York Harbor Oij the troop ship, everyone watched the Statue of Liberty slowly disanpear. On the ocean Julius could see the curvature of the earth an1 from~the looks of it cou dn't understand why the water didn 1 t run off somewhere. When the ship arrived in England, many of the troops had the influenza. Some died. Everyone was quarantined for 21 days. Crossing the English Cba.nnel was like cross:i.ng a big river. France was a g1·een country. All the roads were lined with trees which overshadowed the road. At every crossroads were religious statues. The wine districts were quite a sight. There were whoJ,.e hillstdes covered wlth vineyards and piles of grapes ready for the wine vats. Life at the front ·was pretty bad. Each soldier carried an 80 lb. pack with a short shovel for trench-digging. One of the ho:rrors of l;J1iJT was th0 poison gas. As a part of training, the soldiers were sent into a room to experience a small dose of gas. Julius says, 11 I cheated. After about 8-10 minutes �3 they let us out. Everyone but me was coughing and crying and struggling to get h1 s breath, I had h.ld my head under ~y coat and ·breathed through my clothes, When the officers saw me, they said, 'What's the matter with that Indian Chief? He didn't feel it.'" There were soldiers from many nations involved in the war. Julius recalls, "'The Germans wore green uniforms; the .Americans had kacki. Some had grey with red buttons. I think that was the British. Sometimes the shelling would be so bad that the ground would shake. A few times I felt lik.e I should say 'Goodbye, .America, '" Sometimes during the three . years Julius was in France he doubted he would ever get home again, After a long time of waiting Julius and one of his friends got leave to · go to Paris, expecting it to be a happy relief from the front, but Paris was a grim city, overcrowded with refugees and short of food. "We had to stand in long lines just to get black rye bread," Julius also remembers there was no real Christmas in France.. "One year all we had for Christmas dinner was bread arid bacon and oatmeal." In 1930 Julius narried Molly Tobias Buck. They had six children. The oldest was Nell, then Jerry, Elliot, Darwin, Irene and Bennee, Darwin died when he was about 20. Ao.11 the others survive. Julius knows a lot of people had a hard time in the 1930's, but says he and his family go t along j ust fine. "A !dollar bought a lot in 1930," He worked as a jo ckey for several years and enjoyed this work very much. "When I rode for p eople around Ignacio, I got fifty cents every t l.me I won a race. When the tracks opened up in Durango and Corte2, I got $ 2 ,00, even $3,,00 for winning•: Later Julius did some farming and sone s heepherding and was on the police force. He worked as a 'llaintenance engineer at a school in ·Dulce for a while. Now he leases his land and stays on the home place, Some of Julius best memories are of the years when he was a boy growing up with Max Watts and Martin Hayes. "We liked to play in the water 'own at the river all sll.mmer and fish and make bows and arrows and run in ../he woods. It was a happy life." • This May Julius will celebrate his 80th birthday. For a person of that age he is amazingly strong and healthy, We wish him and his family many more years of good health and happiness. .7 Jeffery Jefferson estubo en Utah par tres dias en una junta tocante educacion.

To do this they want to eliminate the income tabJ.es now being used to figure the cost of_ stamps based on the size of the family and instead charge a flat 30'.~; of the fa:r:iilies income. Those hit hardest by this increase will be the millions of one and two person households where most of the :µation's elderly~ and bling . and disabled live. . . For example a one person household ·with an income of ~?{85 .09 and :no deductions would have _to pay ~;;55.00 for ~)+6.00 Horth of stamp·s.; ... Even with deductions of 035.00 and an adjusted income of ~)150.00 this person would have to pay t'.;45.00 for $;:46.c:io worth of stamps. Thereby most elderly, lm•r-income people would be pushed out of the food _. stamp program. . . · During this period of inflation and recession, it seems unfair for the U.S. government to deliberately 1:1ake the necessities of life even more GXDensive for senior citizens who need th.is hel"O. If you ;re opposed to this price rise, write· to your-congressman and semi.tors. They can pass la\-rs. requiring the USDA to keep _.the prices right we1~e they are or oven lower. _ Your letter does not have to b1:3 typed on fancy :9aper to get attention. Inf act a handwi--i tten letter on a -sack '.muld p1•obabiy get more P.sttention than a formal letter. So ·wRITE. If ycu oppose this price rise, just tell them· so. .. �. -· ' ~ .. Mr. & lif+s.
