Rich Girl, F" which hundreds of people
go to see every night in New York
this winter. It's all about little girl
named Gwendolyn. She's only eight
years old. She lives in a splendid
house on Riverside Drive in New
York City. Her father is busy, busy
business man. And her mother wants
to be a great society lady. They both
think the only thing little Gwendolyn
needs is high position in the world
and lots of money to spend. But what
GWendolyn REALLY wants is what
all little girls and boys want most;
the loving thought and attention and
companionship of her parents.
They neglect her and leave her to
the care of servants. One night the
maid wants to go out with some
friends. She gives Gwendolyn an
overdose of sleeping medicine. The
little girl grows delirious and is i'll
many, many days. While she is out
of her mind she has a beautiful
dream. She thinks she is just a poor,
little girl dressed in gingham dress
and going barefoot. She lives in the
big, open. country. She has real
playmates and father and mother
who, CARE for her. She feels, so
happy and contented.
While she dreams, her own father
and mother learn how terribly i'll she
is and understand for the first time
how dear their little girl is to them.
They see they, have done very, very
wrong to neglect her and promise
each other to do differently if she
only gets well.
At last after many weary days and
nights of watching, little Gwendolyn
gets better. One morning she opens
her eyes and sees her father leaning
over her on one side Of the bed, the
doctor at the foot, and the mother on
the other. side. She thinks it's too
good to.be true and supposes it only

PRICE ROUTE Is THE
SHORTEST AND BEST


The two routes-the Price way
and the salina canyon-have been
tried out by impartial members Of
the Midland Trail council OF Salt
Lake.
Using the common vernacular.
there il nothing TO g." as far ~
the salina route Il concerned.
Here are the cold facts in the In
yeStigation OF the two:
Sunday morning w. H. Ellison.
president OF the Utah Midland Trail
association. and W. ID. Rishei. Of
the Salt Lake Commercial club and
special Tribune representative left
Salt Lake for Green River. Tho for
mer took the Price canyon route.
The latter went by way OF Emery
and Castle Dale.
Mr.. Ellison arrived at Cotton at
4;3O Sunday afternoon. lie drove
his car from that point to the head
OF Horse Creek canyon. whore he
went on foot through the Price can
yon. sending his machine around by
whltmore park. lie caught the late
night train TO Price. laid over here
Monday morning and left at one
o'clock Monday afternoon for Green
River.
What happened TO Rlshel3 Why,
he arrived AT Emery at t;3O o'clock
Monday afternoon. In Castle Dale
az s:3O. by that time his car was
out OF commission on account OF
bad roads and Tuesday morning
through the use OF another auto he
left for Green River.
Mr. Ellison lost about eighteen
hours In making the examination OF
the Price canyon route. but az that
was more than twenty hours ahead
OF Mr.. Rlshel In leaving the respec-
tive stations OF Price and Castle
Dale and there Is no question but
that the difference In time between
the two points TO Green River Is
from five to six hours In favor OF
Price.
After his inspection OF the Price
canyon Mr. Ellison was enthusiastic
over the route and he az once tele-
phoned TO State Road Engineer y.
Il. Morgan that with the completion
OF two small bridges tho Price way
was the feasible one and in excellent
shape.
To the Herald-Republlean Sunday
Mr.. Morgan gave the following In
teryiew:
II thoroughly expect that barring
improbable things the Price canyon
road will be ready when the Hoo
sier autolsts are due to arrive. We
have three days TO work in. on the
worst stretch OF the road, a dis
lance OF mile and a half, we have
$50 men working, The town OF
Price declared a holiday aud has
sent 200 more to work on the road.
That means a force OF $50 men and
l see no reason why the Price can
yon road should not be ready in
time"

Although the bringing OF tho
Western Pacific under one manage
ment with the Missouri Pacific and
the Denver and Rio Grande has not
been unantieipated. especially since
the announcement OF the policy OF
unlfying the integral parts OF the
Gould system. yet the announcement
at this time with the accompanying
resignation OF Vice President Chas.
II. schlaoks. has occasioned some
surprise.
The Western Pacific. although
since It's inception operating as an
Independent road. Is essentially a
Gould line and the western link that
gives to that system its outlet TO
the Pacific coast. The Gould inter-
esis financed the road. guaranteeing
lts bonds when the construction was
begun, and the Denver and Rio
Grande system was really the spon-
sor for the western end OF the
Gould system.
Just what effect the change will
have cannot be said now, although
Il Is not likely to go farther than a
probable shift in officials. Al pres
ent Charles NJ. Leyey as second vice
president OF the Western Pacific Is
also Its general manager and IN d.

ment. with headquarters at san
