If the national holiday, July 4th
is to be observed, it is about time
some of our private citizens were
getting a move on. Do not let that
day, of all days, pass without due
/ recognition.
During the past week about one
half of the teams that have been
hauling wood for the DeLamar
company were laid off. The supply
on hand being SO large that the
move was necessary for lack of room
in the wood yard.

The $4 excursion rate given by
the railroad from Milford to Salt
Lake and return, has induced quite
a number of our citizens to visit the
city of the Saints during the Pioneer
Jubilee. If the stage line from De-
Lamar to Milford will make cut in
proportion, we know of quite a
number of our citizens who will
make the visit.
entertainments have been plenti-
full the past two weeks; that given
by the Ladies' Guild on Tuesday
evening was pronounced genuine
success, and the singing the best
ever given in DeLamar. A large
house greeted those that took part,
and the gentlemen and ladies having
the entertainment in charge are pro-
fuse in their thanks to all those who
so kindly contributed towards its

sured that the coming summer will
see work commenced on the road
that will eventually reach the city of
Los Angeles. If the plans are car
ried out it will cut off about one
half of our present freight haul
from Milford.
Professor Bean is to be congratu-
lated on the success attained in the
two plays presented at Vietti's hall,
taking into consideration the lack OF
facilities, the local talent and the
weight of both plays, the "Black
Flag" and the "Galley Slave each
requiring people of ability. Too
much cannot be said in favor of

to please and their efforts were
highly appreciated. The warm
weather and duh times will nc
doubt cause lull in the production
of any more plays in the neal
future.
