AS smallpox and other contagious
diseases continue to increase, the re-
cessity of a pest house becomes more
apparent, and If possible the city
should provide some such place. De
spire efforts of officials, quarantine Is
seldom strictly observed and not in
frequently are fumigatiOns of little
value. A few days ago certain young
man boarding at IA home in which
were several cases Of smallpox was
fumigated and left the place. Two Or
three days later that same young man
was himself down with the disease. In
the meantime he had circulated
around over the city and came into
contact with large number OF people,
who thus stood a chance of becoming
inoculatcd. This is liable to occur at
any time, but such possibilities could
easily be prevented If the proper pro-
visions were made. The council can
well afford to consider the ACCESSIBILITY
of securing pest house.

LEWIS TONS
OPERA HOUSE
To be Formally open
ed next Tuesday
With "from Sumpter
to Appomattox."

On Tuesday evening" the 18th.
Lewiston's new opera house will be
formerly opened by home talent
company in the thrilling war drama,
"From Sumpter to Appomattax. "
The affair Is given in the interest of
the ward Sunday School and from re-
ports il Is hardly doubted that Lewis
tons new play house will be filed TO
overlooking. The production is in
the hands of Mr.. Theo. France, stake
and ward chorister and director of
the opera house orchestra. 1t is said
that the play has been worked up
until it is in most excellent shape and
that individual members Of the cast
will prove IA most agreeable surprise.

otherwise. I'm the role of Farnes-

vor Of Bonding.

A mass meeting In 1iillyard's Hall
at Smithfeld, Wednesday evening,
called for the purpose of considering
the ACCESSIBILITY of bonding for water
works, was largely attended, indie
alive of the interest that is being
taken in the proposed improvement.
A general good feeling seemed to pre-
vail and there was a decided scnti-
ment in favor Of the proposition.
Mayor Peterson represented the city
administration and in a clear-cut
manner explained the estimated cost
of a water system, and also dwelt at
some length on the advantages. He
said that the outer system,-th
reservoir, development of springs
and system to the city-would cost
about $1,000, and the distributing
system over the city somewhere be-
tween 200 and $4,000. This latter
system would be divided into dis
tricts. of course, and the estimated
cost is about $50 per lot. Mayor
Peterson urged upon the assemblage
the necessity of securing good water
and plenty of it. and showed very
plainly that the cost of the proposed
system is comparatively small and
each persons portion of the burden
will be so small that it will hardly he
felt.
There has been some opposition to
this proposed water system, and an
attempt has been made by some TO
convince those in poor circumstances
that the burden would be too great
for them to bear, but at the meeting

he shall use his best Judgment in the
selection of manager for the light

Archibald Of Wellsville.

A birthday celebration of more than
passing interest was held here We'd
nesday when relatives from Canada,
Oregon. Idaho, and many other places
in Utah were gathered together to do
honor to Mother Archibald on the &C.
casion of the S0th anniversary of her
natal day. The reception was held In
the commodiOus home of her daughter,
Mrs. Margaret Hendry The limit of
space precludcs any attempt to name
all who attended. Table was laid for

A fine program of choice musical selec-
tions was given by Prof. ID. l.. Walters
and DR.. Phillips, which, with songs,
rccitations and addresses entertained
the large aSSemblage till late hour.
The following data concerning Mrs.
Archibald are very interesting indeed.
Elizabeth Russell Archibald was born
on February nth, 1918 in Shots, Lin
lithgowshire, Scotland, her parents be-
ing small farmers. She married Thos.
Archibald in 1885 being then but
seventeen years of age. Was baptized
into the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints in lS47. Her hus-
band died i'm 1857. She bore her hus-
band ten children six of them are liv-
ing, her eldest son, John, being on a
mission to Scotland, and her second,
Alexander, being a member OF the
/ Wellsville City Council. Robert, an
other son, lives at ReXburg, Idaho; "a
daughter, Elizabeth, at Teton, and "a
son, Andrew, at Cardston, Canada.

Now Is the time when people shut
up their houses and try to live ON air
that has been brcathed over and over
again and to suffer from the colds
that are the result of breathing this
impure air TO keep house properly
ventilated in winter time, and yet not
freeze the family to death, is a serious
problem one requiring much thought
and constant watchfulneSs ON the part
of the house but the best air
obtainable should bc had throughout
the house at any cost, There are
still many people who do not know
that "cOlds'' are caused by breathing
impure air, by lack Of proper bathing,
by lack of exercise and by too warm
clothing, preferring TO believe that
the ever rampant germ is responsible
for all the ills which call out pills and
doctors bills.
