with some interesting anecdotes and
stories. Miss Ethel Trevithic took
for her subject, The Face Behind

Thalia, the NEUROLOGICAL muse of
comedy for whom the society was
named. MisA Treyithic's talk was,
intended largely for the new Thai

their loyalty and faithfulness.

and his son, David, made two con-
tracts with the Riverside people, one
of which is for 20 acres of land and
water and the other for 10 acres. In
signed statement they say:
I'VE were induced to pay over
money because of the fact that Mr.
Sawyer, Mr.. Wiley and other per-
soual friends recommended the Riv
erside company, and were putting
their money into il.
1--WE were promised a choice piece
of land somewhere near Palisade, and
were told by Mr. Woody. the vice
president, that he would see that we
would get a clear title to as good
land as they had in their entire
tract. We were led to believe that
the Riverside company owned or con-
trolled over n hundred thousand
acres in this district. He told us that
we need not go over to see the land:
that the company could not afford to
cheat us out of our land, for they
would then lose the money still due
on our uncompleted contracts. Our
money was paid in good faith, believ-
ing that we would receive both land
and water.
Mr.. Sawyer has since left the COM
pany, and we understand that he has
lost heavily through the misrepre-
sentations of the Riverside people
and their failure to keep their prom
ises to him and the people to whom
he made contracts for them.
MIR. Sawyer has assured us that
he will return the amount we paid
in, If the Riverside company fails to
do so. We have seen receipts show
ing that Mr.. Sawyer paid this money
over to them, and do not think that
he is legally bound to pay their OBJ
legations. We have made repeated
demands upon the Riverside people
for the return of our money, but have
not been able to get any satisfaction
out of them.
about six weeks after Mr.. Sawyer
left the company, we went into the
office to make payment on our con
tract. We were Informed that this
money belonged to Mr.. Sawyer's de-
partment, but that, as he was not
then in the office, they would take it
and turn it over to him. We now
have reason to believe that this was
an intended Misrepresentation and
that they had no intention of even
reporting the matter to him. e.

been made whereby DIR. Whiting was

ditions it would be the sheerest folly

these signed statements and many
