LIFTING AND LEARNING.
A we'll known writer says, in
every department of life, we
have twenty leaners where there
in one who lifts. How true! In
the Masters vineyard a few do
the work, and make sacrifices OF
time and energy; the others lean
on them. There is lot of work
to do for our Lord-not big tasks
but common everyday work. A
few tired overweight women
are breaking under the strain.
and do more than their share be-
cause so many lean on them.
Friends, is there not some
woman near you, who is lifting

duty? If there is, turn in and
help the overtaxed brave one.

THERE is one business enterprise II the town of Fallon, in
which every taxpayer should take an interest and that interest
should not be a passive one, but on the contrary should be
sufficiently active to allow of the extension of a liberal patronage
We refer to the FaIlon Light and Water Company. composed
entirely Of representative business men, who have installed a very
modern and expensive plant. When we say that civic pride was
a larger factor in its realization than any pecuniary motive, we
are stating the matter correctly. There are many residents in
our town who have failed to install lights. This little heart to
heart is for the purpose OF telling YOU, Mr.. Fallonite, that our
town is judged very largely by the public spirit that is in evi
dence. You cant afford to withhold your patronage from an
Institution that has for it's single purpose the upbuHding of our
community. Now is a good time TO talk about installing a
number Of street arc lights.

AND WHY
to 4 habitable state.

TT may be only a coincidence, but it is noticeable that almost
1 simultaneously with the announcement that there were to
be two or three more transconinental railroads, came a renewed
agitation in the money centers OF the east Tor n water level canal
across the Isthmus of Panama. The fastest news conveys the
informant n that the matter is now in the hands OF the engineers,
whose report will be final, and they are particularly impressed
with the water level idea. No particular explanation is offered
as to why they are impressed, but there ire certain advantages
in the water level project that does not fail to interest the rail
road captains, namely the deerring of the completion of the
canal to perhaps twice the time that would be required for the
completion of a lock canal, and the hope that the engineering
difficulties and stupendons outlay of money required by the
water level project might be instrumental in dauntng more
hardy spirits than the present administration has at its com
mand.
The failure of DeLesseps and his coterie, are still fresh in the
minds of the reading public, and the possible repetition OF such an
occurrence is the only hope that the transcontnental railway
promoters can have, for with the completion of the canal, trans
continental freight hauing over rails would be a thing of the past.
