which runs regularly from 6:3C
a. m. till 11:30 p. M, all the con-
venience of the telephone and
post office, a home moderl
throughout, the sociability which
always attaches to the country
town, which cannot be found il
the great city where one neighbor
doesn't know the family living
next door.
Aavada can furnish you all the
room you want, so that at once
you have the pure air the same
as on the farm, the real country
life. with the advantages Of the

Methodist Episcopal
Conference at
Fort Morgan, Colo.

About two hundred Methodist
preachers and laymen gathered
Rt Fort Morgan last week and
held the annual conference. 1t
was presided over by Bishop
Quayle, it was great event for
Fort Morgan to have so many
strangers in town for nearly a
week, and the restaurants, hotels,
and many private houses were
greatly taxed in feeding and
housing SO many.
The editor was among the num-
Der who participated in the hos
pitalily of the town and can-tes-
tify that the conference was we'll
cared for, and in mixing with
the preachers we failed to hear
one word of dissatisfaction. Il
was unanimous on the part of
the preachers that Fort Morgan
knew how to entertain strangers.
The city has probably nearly
1000 people and has every ap-
pearance of a prosperous town.
1t is the. county seat and is in the
midst of fine irrigated farms.
The roads are in excellent cons
dition and but little expense to
