Atmosphere FUN Of Manifesto
tons Of Spgina

When the grass hoppers begin
to hop it is a sign that spring is
about to spring. Spring has been
springing in Tucumcari eve since
Christmas, however, but not until
this week did the grass hoppers
begin to hop. One man living
south OF Tucumcari Mountain
came to the city the latter part OF
this week and brought in a great
big hopper with long green legs.
The insect was ENJOYING the best
OF health and scratched heartily
on the inside OF the paper sack
that the man carried him in. He
is not OF last years generation,
said a local scientist, but belongs
10 a recent brood.
Another indication that spring
Is now here to stay Is the fact that
the frogs have tuned up there
musical throa,s and those who live
near the Blue Holes say that their
melodious concerts are heard there
every evening.
There is something very poetic
about frogs and grass hoppers and
OF late many signing lads and las.
sizes have taken their pens in hand
and sat themselves down to write
about turtle doves and things.
Who a doubt but that spring is
lear when the atmosphere is so
iull OF such manifestations.

e INSPECTION.

Meat inspection is the profess
sional investigation and Judgment
on the internal organs and meat OF
slaughtered animals with reference
10 their fitness tor human food.
Meat inspection also includes the
examination OF the living animals
before slaughter, which examina-
ton is required Tor a more accurate
Judgment on the fitness Tor con.
sumption as human food. Fur.
thermore meat inspection embraces
the supervision OF public and pri.
vate meat markets, as well as all
industries in which meat is manu-.
featured into sausage and other
products.
HISTORY OF NEAT INSPECTION.
Antiquity, traditions OF the old
est civilized nations show that they
possessed certain regulations con.
corning meat inspection. Thus,
we learn through Herodotus and
Plutarch that the Egyptians we're
forbidden to eat pork for the reason
that it produced an excess oil
humors and eruptions. The AMI
mails which were served as offerings
to the gods and as food Tor the
priests had to be carefully inspect.

Tucumcari's future prosperity
seems assured. We have a set OF
business men who never look back
when there is a chance to do some
thing for the betterment OF the
community. The next great neees-
sity is a sewerage system and It is
being talked now among them that
IL is time for the city council to he
thinking about ordering an election
for bonds tor this purpose. Every
dollar spent in this way by any
town comes back to them one hun
bred fold in the advanced prices
OF property. II must be advan-
tageous to any community to be
able to announce to the world that
a thoroughly sanitary sewerage
system is being installed. The
health OF the city means It's newt
able prosperity. The council
should never allow another cess
pool TO be built in this city. IL
seems incumbent that a sewerage
system should be provided at the
earliest date possible.

A GOOD SHOW
HERE WEDNESDAY,

Mr.. Edmund Carroll, starring in
1--WE Are King" will be the attrac-
tion at the Pavilion on Wednesday
night.
The Omaha Bee, of February 10,
says; "A king play or any other sort
of play in which two young hearts
are brought together under the
glamor of romance, is a good play If
the hero be taken up from apparent
obscurity and landed in high place,
and if the heroine falls in love with
him and he with her, each oblivious
of the others antecedents, and awake
only to the one great central fact,
then it is even better play. And if
a certain element of comedy be
mingled with this, so that the per-
fume of romance is stirred ON waves
of reasonable merriment, all that can
be asked of the modern comedy is
afforded. Such is eve Are King"
Let us not inquire too closely into its
construction. 1t may resemble any
one of great many other plays, just
as one apple resembles another in
appearance or flavor, but with the
same differentiating degree of diverg-
ence. 1t is pleasure to think OF
Gustavus Venner finally landing the
job of king of Mahnburg; but, If Gus
didn't make better king than he
did newspaper reporter, he wasn't
much of ruler. Still it. is as a
lover that he really shines, and in
this role he fills the eye of the inter
ested audience so fully that any of
his other attributes or accomplish
ments are lost sight of. A counter
felt king making love to and winning
the heart of a princess in disguise is
a spectacle afforded only in story
books and romantic comedies, but it
is enjoyable just the same"
Mr.. Edmund Carroll has succeeded
to the role Mr.. Whiteside made
familiar here. He has brought to it
the result of careful study, and pre-
sents it in careful way. Mr.. Car
roll has quite way of going about
his work and suits the character we'll
and gets out of it all there is in it,
