BOOSTING FOR TOURNAMENT

B. II. Napier, of Glenwood Springs,
was in the city today on matters per-
tanning to the celebration of Straw
berry Day, the annual big festival day
of the western Colorado Spa. Mr..
Napier, was concerned a little bit re-
garding the celebration of the open
ing of the Grand Junction and Grand
River Valley railroad, fearing that
celebration would be in conflict He
said their people desired to come in
a big body to that celebration on the
18th of next month, that day being
set only as a probable day upon which
the big celebration of the opening of
the interurban line might take place.
Mr.. Napier says that this year Straw
berry Day will have many more fea-
lures than formerly A big fremen :
tournament is to be a part of the pro
gram and many new features.-Grand

The water business has picked up
wonderfully during the past few weeks
until now it is no uncommon sight TO
see from 10 to Is ten-gallon milk cans
loaded here with Glenwood s splendid
water and shipped down the river for
private domestic use. The down the
river people know a good thing when
they see it and when we consider the
stuff that passes for water in some of
these places we cannot blame the citi-
zens for not using it when they can get
the "best ever' by sending to Glen
wood.
