The Children's Show.

Next Saturday afternoon Buster
Brown in its improved form will be
presented at the Greeley opera house
This concoction of fun and music
has received the unqualified endorse
ment Of both old and young theatre
goers from Maine to California. The
character of the precocious and mis-
chievous Buster has new exponent
this season in Master Helton, who
has been proclaimed by the leading
critics wherever he has appeared as
the only comedian who has carried
out pei fectly Mr.. Outcault's idea of
the character in the colored supple
ments. A very decided improve
ment In the personnel of the Buster
1taun company this season has beer
made. This is mainly due to the
fact that those comprising the or
ganization are the choice OF Mr.. Out
cault, the creator Of popular Buster
Brown. Mr.. Outcault this season,
for the first time, is taking per-
sonal interest in his play and as a
result many Improvements have been
made. This engagement is limited tn
the matinee.

A high.toned society club In Chi.
cago one evening recently gave .
dancing party at which . consider
able number Of the members OF the
400" were present. Ono of the
features of this function was termed
q farmers dance.' The rooms
were absurdly decorated with farm-
ers' articles and the guests we're ar
rayed in 'burlesque farmers clothing.
There was farmers treat sup
per, at which the table was covered
with paper-mache vegetables, fruits,
chickens, geese, pigs and cows.
Four men, made up in the style of
the "Rubes'' as depicted by certain
of the comic weeklies, sang songs
designed to cast ridicule upon the
farmer and the farmers wife, and
there were other features presented
supposed to be funny and which we're
reported as greatly appreciated by
those present.
From any viewpoint the whole
affair would be considered BY persons
whose opinions are of value as an
exhibition Of exceeding bad taste
regardless of the morality involved.
But when one considers that the
farmer is today, and has always

G. Il. S. XMAS TREAT
Will Have With It the True
Spirit.

In these days of commercialism
the custom of Christmas giving has
fallen into the spirit of the times,
and has become largely one of mere
exchange.
The G. H. S. students, wishing to
show the true spirit of Christmas,
that of "giving and not getting
have inaugurated a rather unique
custom. At ten O'Clock next Satur-
day morning they will be the hosts
at a Christmas party given In the
high school auditorium, and their
guests will be $50 children less
fortunate than themselves. There
will be a Christmas tree, beautifully
decorated, and Santa Claus and his
he pers will dispense the gifts the
Students have donated. There VIII
be an orange, popcorn ball, box OF
candy and nice gift for every child.
The students feel that the best Is
none too good for their guests, SO the
girls are making all the candy, ana
the gifts are being selected with
care and the hope that they Will de-
light the little hearts Of the guests.
The tree will be placed IN the
room and decorated Friday. Friday
afternoon the high school will have
their Christmas program, which viii
consist of music and 4 talk by Rev.
Petty on 1.-The Spirit of Christmas.
On Saturday morning the hlgh
school orchestra will furnish the
music, and there will be enough OF
the students present to assist IN the
entertaining Of the children ana
making the affair success.
This idea originated with the hieh
school students and the whole thing
is in their hands. They are working
enthusiastically and have already
decided that bringing gifts to Tree
is more pleasant than receiving
them.
This right spirit Of giving is to.oe
HEARTILY commended, and shoulo oe
more universal.

HOW Diphtheria is Contracted.

One often hears the expression,
MY child caught severe cold
which developed into diphtheria, 4"
when the truth was that the cold
had simply left the little one parti-
cularly susceptible to the wandering
diphtheria germ. When Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is given 1t
quickly cures the cold and lessons
the danger of diphtheria or any other
germ disease being contracted. For
sale by all druggists.

MAY BE BUILT
PLAN TO RAISE MONEY FOR
BIG RESERVOIR
Poudre Valley Reservoir Com
pany Preparing to Increase
Its Stock in jan
uary

At the annual meeting of stock
holders of the Poudre Valley Reser-
voir company, which will be held in
the early part Of January, the ques-
tion will be submitted of increasing
the capital stock from $3.50, 600 to
$500, 900, for the purpose of extend
ing the system of bitches and reser-
voirs.
If the increased capitalization is
authorized, the shares will have a
par value of 800. but none of the
additional shares may be sold at less
than 5000 a share. When the stock
is all sold the company will then
have an improvement fund of half a
million dollars with which to finish
the big ditch and to construct the
great Poudre Valley reservoir,
twelve miles northeast of Fort Col
lins.
The Poudre Valley project is by
far the largest storage system under
taken in Northern Colorado. and so
far the expense of construction has
been borne altogether by the farmers
In the vicinity of Eaton.
The ditch has been constructed
for distance Of sixteen miles and
has carrying capacity of 1000 cubic
feet of water per second. Another
twelve miles will have to be built to
reach the great basin that it is in
tended to convert into the largest
storage reservoir in the state. The
completion of this reservoir will
make the property one of the most
valuable irrigation systems here.
The system, as originally planned,
contemplated only supplementary
water supply to the Larimer and
Weld canal but since then the
plans have been broadened out, SO
that it is likely great deal of addi-
tional territory will be taken up In
the vicinity of Pierce. The ditch
is the highest in the irrigated
country, and can easily be carried
ten or twelve miles north Of Ault.
