Col Wiley, but he says no man can
judge womans age by the length
of her skirt any ore in this day of
such varied styles of dress.

"OFFICER 666"

Officer &c.," the play that IS
scheduled for production at the OPP
era House Thursday, Jan. Both, IS
another Conan & Harris success that
is attracting more than ordinary at
tention in the amusement world.
Officer 666" is a melodramatic
farce without any musical trimmings
Its scenes frame a story of young
millionaire who finds that his riches
fail to provide him with enough va
riety in life. In this condition he is
suddenly confronted with PROPOSE
ton that requires the activity of all
his wits in the solving. The play IS
said to be crisp in humor and to be
played with the speed and vim that
presents its scenes with Kaleidoscope
rapidly. Officer 666" was written by
Augustin MacHugh, an author, who up
to January l, 1912, was absolutely
unknown in the realm of playwrights.
The success that has attended his
maiden effort, however, is all the
more gratifying in view of the fact
that he has evolved an original play
with its scenes laid in America, it's
story told in a speedy American way,
by an all-American company. The au-
thor has not borrowed from the Ger
man or French, but strange to say he
is credited with having written a
farce that is full of pungent wit,
smart chatter and electrifying situa-
lions that one can laugh at to ones
hearts content without being COM
PEELED to apologize to ones seat mate
for the exhibitions of hilarity. On the
contrary, the piece is said to be a
clean, healthy farce that tells a CO.
herent story, and which may be re-
called without a blush, and it is pre-
scented by a capable company of ac-
tors and actresses Advertisement.

THREE MILE HIKE IN SNOW

George c. Thompson. supervisor
Eager, manager for the Ely Packing
company, were out Currant Creek
way when the snow storm of Wednes-
day night began to get busy, and the
two men had a strenuous experience
in making Ely on the homeward trip.
Things went pretty well until dark
ness overlook them coming down
White River summit. Thursday
night. 1t was impossible to see the
marks of the highway, but progress
was made until a point three miles
from Ely, when their automobile un-
dertook to straddle a big boulder.
The attempt was not a success, for
the car stuck effectually on top of
the stone, and refused to bulge, al
though the engine was not damaged.
The car rested easily, but one OF the
real wheels was wedged with another
rock, and the machine was an entire
ly too heavy a proposition to think of
trying to lift.
So Messrs. Thompson and Eagan
set out on foot and finally reached
town, after wallowing through the
snow that much of the way vas up
to their waists.
Friday morning Royal F. Matthias
and Sam Bassam went out TO the
stranded car and brought it in none
the worse for the experience.

er. the Weber club would hardly
give US an audience. They rather
laughed at US and finally referred us
to Vim. Glasmann of the Standard.
Glasmann told us that if Ely or
Salt Lake was not satisfied with the
travel they we're getting. TO go ahead
and work out their own salvation;
that ogden had the travel and could
hold it.
We tried to show him that he
could not hold it, and that il was to
his advantage to arrive al an under
standing whereby all three cities
could receive this travel, but he re-
fused to consider any such PROPOSE
ton.
This article indicates that they are
losing the most of the travel and are
using their earnest endeayOrs 10 get
it back. Had they agreed at that
time to work with Us. the Midland
Trail probably would never have been
opened, but the travel would have
been directly through Wyoming 10
Ogden. thence 10 Salt Lake City and
Ely. Now Ogden sees where il is
very much a side trip, as the main
travel Is going 10 come from Denver
through Grand Junction 10 Salt Lake.
thence south Of the Lake to Ely, and
ogden will receive none OF il unless
it succeeds in pulling the route north
Of the Lake.
Even with the lack Of interest
which obtains in Ely on this very i'm
portant subject. it is more than an
even break that the Midland Trail
will come through Ely instead OF
north OF the Lake.
In Presidents Rowe's last para
graph he speaks apparently with a
great deal of confidence, but to me
it sounds like the boy whistling in
the dark TO keep up his courage.
VIII Ely awaken to the importance

low the course OF ogden and after IL
is too late. start put and try to get
back this very important source of

STUDENTS WILL PRESENT VIEWS

When the legislature convenes
Monday it will be met with resolu-
tons from the students of the Agri-

The exact nature of the resolutions
has not been determined, but the
students want it distinctly under
stood that they are working indepen-
dent of the regents and the authori-
ties, and that the suggestions to the
l%awgiyers will be from a students
point of view, rather than the eye of
an authority.
At present the "Aggies' have the
largest enrolment of any of the de-
partments of the university, and the
students are very actively interested
in the future of their course and
western agriculture. They realize that
a great good can be done here in the
semi-arid west If the proper methods
are followed.
