"Don't forget tho editor when You have

This is good advice from an exchange,

give one of her high-class entertain
ments at the Presbyterian church next
Tuesday evening, April q. The even
ing will abound in wit, humor and social
and intellectual enjoyment. Miss Tillot-

ly displayed in town OF this size. The
entertainment will be under the auspices
OF the Y. p. S, G. e. and will begin at y
o'clock. Admission 25 and 15 cents.
We wish that the various churches
of Rocky Ford would give more atten-
ton to furnishing US notices Of all their
meetings. We want all such informa-
ton, but unless some one connected with
the church work takes the trouble to in
form us, many items which should be
published are passed by unnoticed. We
want to have every denomination equal

will do so il the facts are given us.
