Talk about your practical ideas in
Christnas giving. The other day we
observed . Glsnwood lady preparing to
send present to her sister by express,
and what do you suppose she sent her'
Not . diamond ring or = powder pu6
or q piece of cut glass, which would
probably not be used once year. She
sent . box of apples and half . hog
If that isn't practical, sensible Christ
mas giving We should like to know
what you call it.

nesses. Another mission of this party
was to interview Santa Claus and urge
him to make a visit to the Sweetwatar

Te Post is informed that the State
Highway commission insists that Gar.
field county MUST fix the state road
up the Glenwood canon before the
high water comes on 50 that We can
offer n safe highway to the large travel
which is scheduled through here next
year. The county commissioners will
act on this suggestion OF demand IT
whatever you are pleased to call it and
the canon will be put in passable shape
for the COMING season IS traffic
The Post is not quite advised as to
the exact status Of the Lacy hill prop
osition. We have heard some conflict
ing rumors of late, but lest it might
work an injustice to some one, We pre-
fer not to give publicity to any Of
these rumors. One thing, however ap-
pears very certain and that is that If
the road gang is to be moved back to
that vicinity, the moving must be done
As soon IS the men can be spared from
the Carbondale road and before it is
necessary to take them up the canon.
Let us hope that this may be done, IS
the Lacy hill is certainly great bug
bear to all who have occasion to travel
between here and New Castle.
At the D. g. James country home
near Carbondale, last Monday Mrs.
James served a splendid four-eourse
birthday dinner in honor Of little
Freeman James and Sam Geigel, VINO
have formed habit Of celebrating
their birthdays together, since they
were both born On the same day Of the
month. Freeman was four years old
last Monday, and he doesn't care who
knows it but Sam is just little shy
concerning his exact ase although he
u willing to admit that his birthday is
always on December 81. Only the two
families wcre present at the dinner
which was very enjoyable aRair. Last
year the two families celebrated at the
Geigel home.
