run over by train about three weeks
ago, has progressed wonderfully at the
county hospital and will probably be
in week or 80. The leg is
almost healed where the amputation

The high school boys as well as some
Of the girls serenaded the new teachers
last evening and took the opportunity
to initiate Principal Thompson into the
mysteries of Glenwood school life.
There were all kinds of stunts doing
and the young people made very jol-
ly and withal very noisy evening of
it. But it's all over now although tits
whispered that some of the victims
will not be all over it for a few days.
Secretary C. D. Fuller of the Tri-
county fair is preparing to send tick
cts to every school in the three coun-
ties interested which will entitle all
children under l2 years of age to free
admission to the fair on Saturday
which will be known as children s day.
A special line of amusements of in
terest to the rising generation will be
provided and it is certain that practi-
eally every youngster in the three
counties will be on hand.
According to E. Wilson of Palisade
work will start on the high line canal
within the NEXT two weeks and it is
expected that as soon as some legal mat
ters are disposed of work will begin
also on an electric line from Fruita to
the Plateau valley. Mr.. Wilson says
that things are active and prosperous
in that section and that everyone is
enthusiastic over the coming inaugu'
ration of these projects which mean so
much to that promising fruit center.
Charlie jordan and +. Wilson who
came up from Palisade yesterday morn
ing left this noon for WoEott whore
they will meet Jake Borah and from
there the three will go up into the
sheepshorn mountain section to hunt
bear. They tried to get Frank Hayes
to accompany them but he couldn't get
AWAY much az he would have liked to.
Wilson says they are going to stay
out till they get at least one bear
il it takes all winter but as the beasts
are fairly plentiful in that section
they do not think that will be neces-
sary.
The management of the Tri-county
fair has taken pains to insure that the
barbecue is the finest thing Of the
kind Garfield county people have ever
had a chance to enjoy. The way 1t
has been done is by engaging Hube
Strouse Of New Castle who made such
a rep for himself at the barbecue there
