Raymer's Christmas

The Enterprise man does not rcmem-
Der when he has missed Christmas
exercise, and his memory recalls more
OF them than he likes to believe possible
but we have seldom listened to as
good program as that given by the
little folks Of the Sunday school last
Sunday afternoon. The tree was a
dry land tree, planted, grown and cut
down the same day, but it answered
the purpose very well. The program
was long enough, but not too long;
short enouh, but not too short, and at
the close of the pieces, purse was
presented to Mrs. Sweigard as an ap-
probation of her faithful work in
preaching Sabbath after Sabbath in
Raymer and helping the people not to
forget that there is something in life
besides eating and drinking and trying
to gather together riches. The
amount, $40 in gold, was small but
Mrs. Sweigard appreciates the situa-
tion Of the homesteaders and knows
that the small amount given represents
more Of sacrifice than the munifcent
sums given in some places. When the
program was finished, old Santa Claus
with his kindly face and genial ways
appeared to the delight Of all save n
couple Of the smaller ones, and even
these were won by the candy and good.
les presented them later, and were
ready to hope he would be back next
year. You cannot make the boys and
girls OF Raymer believe that Santa is
myth for they saw him last Sum
day in daylight. and they know he is
real and kind and good. One little fel-
low who was little fearful ut first
felt treasured when told that he was
Mr.. Barker's brother, and that was
true too, for he is a big brother Of all
mankind.

"Honey-Hay"

1t takes somebody besides the behind.
the-time easterner to slip one over on
Colorado. Since the Great Western
Sugar company has created an eastern
market for "Mofalfa" eastern facto-
ries are making an inferior product
and using the same name. As a result
the sugar company has copyrighted the
name of "Honey-Hay." All the prod
uct Of the Sterling mill where alfalfa
is ground and mixed with the residue
molasses from the sugar factory will
hereafter be known by the above name.
Local feeders are rapidly taking up the
use Of honey-hay and the demand in the
east is constantly growing. = Sterling
Republican Advocate.
The Raymer enterprise., 1911-12-28

We are seldom satisfied. The big
interests feel that there is tendency
to drive them to the wall and allow
them no profits on their large invest
ments: while the people feel that little
is being done to relieve them from un-
just burdens. but we believe that each
day brings us just little rearer. to a
solution OF present day industrial prob
lens. The world is constantly facing
new conditions, and it is slow to adjust
itself to them, but the people of our
country will find a way to maintain our
splendid industries and make the cor
porations what they should be, safe
avenue for TIE investment Of savings
and at the same time the corporation
will be the servant of all and the op-
pressor of no one.

Seed Meeting at erayIin

The farmers of the northwest part
of the county are called upon to attend
a public meeting at the Graylin schooI
house, seventeen miles northwest OF
Sterling on Wednesday afternoon, Dec.
q, for the purpose of discussing the
wisdom Of calling upon the governmen,
for seed for next year. Many Of the
homesteaders. citizens whom Logan
county cannot afford to lose, while not
actually in poverty and want, and in no
sense subjects for local charity, yet
feel the need Of government leniency
and assistance and will petition that its
benificiencies, which are being bestow-
ed upon other sections of Colorado,
shall be extended to this section for
the next season at least. 1t has long
been practice Of the department of
agriculture to supply seed to home
steaders in need thereof, this being re-
turned upon growing a crop therefrom.
1t resolves itself into matter Of bust
ness upon the part of the government
and homesteader, and there is no good
reason why Logan county farmers
should not be in the pool. The meeting
at Graylin school house should be at
tended by all the farmers of the upland
section Upon the presentation of the
needs of many of the farmers of the
uplands north and west of Sterling DR..
Fisher has written Congressman Ruck-
cr inviting his assistance toward pro-
curing seed for next years planting
from the agricultural department at
Washington. Favorable reply is ex-
pected in any mail. y Sterling Republi-
Advocate.
The above refers to territory near
Willard where conditions are identical
with those existing in this vicinity. II
government aid is extended to one sec
ton it should extend to both. We con-
fess that we think the government
should be very cautious; but the rail.
roads had aid extended to penetrate the
desert. Why should not the individual
be assisted while he cndeavors TO sub
due it and make it productive!

Three corpses lay out on the SHINING sands

HIS JAG HAD
QUEER EFFECT

Owing to the fact that L. Tenney
Peck showed a disposition to regard
Chas. Osmans break Of last night
more in the nature of a lapse due to
drink than one Of felonious intent, the
sailor escaped Imprisonment this
morning. Osman came in on the
Foong Suey, from New York, and last
night, whilst under the influence of
drink he entered Tenney Peck's
house in Wilder avenue. Mr. Peck
related to Judge VIM. b. Lymer this
morning the incidents of last night.
1T was about 2:3O last night said
Tenney Peck, that | heard steps on
my porch and directly afterwards the
door opened and the defendant walked
into the hall. l stepped out of an
adjoining room and asked him what he
wanted, when he leaned towards me
and said, Give me a glass Of beer
could not accommodate him, and said,
I guess you had better be going along
Then ! put him out. | supposed he
had taken my advice and gone down
L
out and found him prowling around
the premises on the side walk, look
ling into the house. He went. down
the street and | followed him and on
catching up to him asked him why
he had not gone away. I have been
trying for haitian hour to get out of
this neighborhood but can't do it, he
answered"
WAS he drunk" asked Judge Ly-
mer.
well, he walked straight and talk
ed easily" replied Tenney Peck. 81
was not sure whether he was drunk
or whether he was lettering about
with some Interior design, so / put
him on a street car and told the con-
ductor to put him off at Hotel street
if he were quiet, but if he were noisy
to hold him until a policeman came.
then telephoned to the police station
and was asked to come down today
and identify him"
Mr. Peck added that from what he
had seen Of the defendant since, he
did not think he was a thief, simply
that he was intoxicated and did not
know what he was doing.
The court took a similar view of the
case and suspended sentence for a
period Of thirteen months.

LOST $50
COLD WATCH

A man whose duty took him along
the waterfront this morning had the
misfortune to lose his splendid 500
gold watch, to which was attached a
$50 chain.
He was leaning over from the
wharf to speak to someone on one Of
the small vessels tied to the wharf,
and had occasion to pull his watch
out. Instead Of placing the timepiece
back in his pocket, it slid along his
leg and fell into four fathoms of wa
ter. Fishing operations were carried
on for some time, in the hopes that
the watch would be hooked, but these
were unsuccessful. A Hawaiian was
procured, and he dived down three
times to see whether he could pick II
up, but each time he came up with =
piece of coal in either hand. He
could not see what he was doing an
grabbed whatever his hands fell up
on.
This method Of trying to recover
the watch was given up, and an cleo
trio light bulb was lowered into the
water. The water however, was toe
deep to see the light when it reached
the muddy bottom, and besides this
the heat Of the light melted the adj
hesive tape with which the bulb was
packed around the connection.
Ultimately, the efforts were giver
up, for the time being at least, for II
is hoped that the services Of one o.
the divers from II. M. S. Algerine viii
be procured in order to make searcf
for the watch.
