WILL WIDEN
MAIN STREET
Village Board Of Trustees Plan to
Improve Looks Of Principal
Business Streets
MAY REQUIRE TESTING OF COWS
Village Funds Getting Low-Board
Borrows Money.

The village board of trustees are
planning to take steps to have the
north and south ends of Main
street widened four feet to conform
with the block between the Enter
prise building and the First State
bank building The discussion of
this matter occupied a considerable
portion of the evening at the regu-
lar meeting of the board held Tues
day night. 1t seemed to be the
unanimous opinion of the board
that the widening of Main street
in the above named sections would
greatly improve the looks of the
business portion of town and that it
was necessary that steps be taken
at once towards this end.
All but a few of the property
owners whose property fronts on
those parts of Main street to be
widened have consented to deed TO
the village the four feet required.
One or two property owners have
objected and the village board will
confer with these people this week
in hopes of arriving at an amicable
settlement.
The matter of passing an ordi-
nance which will provide for the
testing of cows of local diaries for
tubercular diseases was brought up
and it is probable that such an or
dinance will be past at the next
meeting
This week the board has made
arrangements to borrow money
until January l 1913 to be used to
pay the current expenses of the
village. When the annual appro-
priation was made the board fixed
the levy at 81 mills. This levy
was considered to be quite small
but on account of the dull times it
was believed that, by strictest econ
omy, the sum raised by this tax
could be made to pay the running
expenses of the village. When the
state board of equalization reduced
the general levy 80 per cent, the
village appropriation was materi-
ally reduced and so the board is
unable to make improvements that
it had planned and has run short
of money with which to carry on
the actual business of the locality,

trict No. 10 which includes Bon
ners Ferry and several nearby
schools, had been awarded first
place and beautiful silver loving

that the residents of this vicinity
and especially the students of the
various schools of District No. 10.
share with Miss Wells for it is quite
evident that everyone is prouder
and at least as happy over the out
come of the contest as the contest
ant herself The highest praise is
due Miss Wells as she worked
faithfully and bent every energy
in her effort to win for her district
the first honors.
The contest was participated in
by twelve young people, represent
ing dozen districts of the county
which had been divided by County
Superintendent of Schools Mrs.
lrion who planned the contest and
under whose supervision the
various preliminaries and district
contests were held. The unusual
success of the contest and the in
terest taken in it is largely due to
her efforts and the hearty cooper
alton of the various schools.
Those who attended the decla-
nation contest at Standpoint Tues
day evening there were about rs
Boomers Ferry people there speak
highly of the Evolutionary ability of
each and every contestant although
it may be said without flattery that
Miss Wells easily excelled her OPP
ponents. All the contestants were
girls who had been selected as
representatives of their various
districts at preliminary contests,
one held in their home school and
one held in their particular
district.
The judges of the contest were
Judge ] NJ Flynn of Standpoint,
DR.. Edward O. Sisson of the Uni
versity of Washington and Prof.
II. c. Blair of the Blair Business
College of Spokane The contest
was conducted with due regard for
fairness and every precaution was
taken to see that each contestant
was given an equal chance. The
contestants were only known to the
Judges by their numbers. Judge
Flynn was chosen to make the
announcement of the winner of the
contest at its close and when he
told that after careful consideration
of all points, No. l0( Miss Wells)
had been selected for first place,
the people of Boomers Ferry were
overjoyed and were joined in their
enthusiasm by the entire audience
for Miss Wells had won the favor
of the whole assembly.
DR.. Sisson, one of the judges,
told citizen of this town after the
defamation contest, that he had
been privileged to be one of the
judges in many contests during his
lifetime and that he had heard and
seen so much tommy-rot' that
he had absolutely refused to have
anything to do with high school
contests during his later years. DR..

came to Standpoint he again expect

.GlSeS in Stomach
Poison the Blood

Gas forms in your stomach because
the food you eat ferments and turns
sour
Allow this fermentation to go on
and these gases become poisonous and
the poison gets into the blood.
Ml-O-NA stomach tablets stop the
fermentation almost instantly, turn
the poisonous gases into liquid, and
eliminates the poison mostly through
the kidneys.
If you have any stomach trouble,
such as gas, sourness, heaviness, fiat
ulency or shortness of breath, MILO
MA will give gratifying relief in five
minutes.

The Deep Purple" soon to be
shown to local theater-goers has had
a phenomenal run in New York and
Chicago, probably because it is a
phenomenal play. 1t is one of those
virile dramas that grip ones inter-
est from the start and never let go
until it is all over. 1t depicts life
just as it is being lived by thous-
ands of Americans today, and does it
in such realistic manner that one
is swept into the action and be-
comes as much wrought up the the
characters concerned.

\ Dream of the Sea.

a farmer lad in his prairie home
Lay dreaming of the sea:
He ne'er had seen it, but well he
knew
Its pictured image and heavenly hue ::
And he dreamed he swept DER its
waters blue.
With the winds a blowing free.
With the winds so fresh and free
He woke! and he said, The day
shall come
When that shall be truth to me-"
But as years swept by him he always
found
That his feet We're clogged and his
hands were bound.
Till at last he lay in narrow
mound,
Afar from the sobbing sea,
The sorrowing, sobbing sea.
Oh, many there are on the plains
tonight
That dream of a voyage to be.
And have said in their souls, The
day will come
When my bark shall sweep through
the drifts of foam
But theiT eyes grow dim and their
lips grow dumb,
Afar from the tossing sea,
The turbulent tossing sea.

Tennis Season VIII Open.

Preparations are being made to
make the tennis season this year the
most successful and enthusiastic yet
known in Grand Junction
Tennis clubs are being organized
and soon the rollers will be at work
on the various courts and new ones
will be added in other parts of the
city. At the Y. NJ. C. A. plans are
on foot for the formation of a fine
tennis club for the spring season.
The club courts are on the lots
owned by the government and upon
which the federal building is to be
erected. 1t is believed, however,
that the tennis season will be prac-
tically over before the construction
viii start. Bids are to be advertised
for in May or June. so that it will be
much later in the summer before
the ground will be broken.
Secretary Cox, who is an enthusi-
asst himself, will begin work in a
few days to put the courts in fine
shape and playing will probably start
early in April. II is estimated that
a membership of at least 20 will be
secured to start the season off. Tour
naments are being planned for the
club little later on.
The Boyer house court, which is
the Oldest as well as by far the best
court in the city, is in excellent con-
dition and will soon be put into its
usual tip-top condition for the com
ing season. This has always been
the most popular court in the city
and has always had a large mem
bership on its club list.
A new club is being organized,
however, which will take from both
the Boyer house and the Y.M. C. A.
clubs a few of their best players. 1t
is to be the East End Tennis club.
The courts, for which the contract
has already been let, are to be built
on the lots between the Sands house
and Judge Wheeler's residence on
East Main street.
The club district is east of Tenth
street and includes a number of fine
players, among whom are the fol-
lowing: Messrs. Joe Stewart, S. B.
Lacy, Howard Piatt, Frank Davis,
G. -L-Watson, w. L. Mack. F. B.
Welsh, Fred Holmes, c. A. Latimer,
