THE NEWSPAPER CLUB
 TO DISCONTINUE DANCES

The regular dinner-dansant which has been a delightful feature of the social life of the Newspaper club for this -um. mer will be discontinued after next Thursday evening. The club will adopt other plans for the entertainment of the members, however. Announcement will be made of the programme for the winter festivities within the next few days.
 The improvements being made at the Country club will add greatly to the pop ularity of this, one of the most. beautiful and commodious club houses in the south. The ballroom, which is already large and convenient will have 40 feet added to it's width. Other additions are being made that will give pleasure and comfort to it's large membership.

BUFFET SUMMER
 DANSANT

Saturday night at the Hotel Tutw.ler Mr. Hubert Kinney will have an exliibi- tion of his new dances in the beautiful ballroom of the hotel. Tables can be re- served any time between now and Satur- day by calling Phones Main 1156 or s35o. This will doubtless be one of the pret- tiest exhibitions given here, since .Mr. kinney has just returned from Iaris with all the new dances ready for exhibi- ton. Miss Florine Hodges will demon- strate them as MT. kinneys partner.
 1t is fortunate thing for the regular attendants at the Country club that this supper dance can take the place of the saturday night Country club dirner- dance, since that delightful clubhouse will be closed for repairs
 Mir. Kinney has not decided what dances will be most pleasing to his audience, but his programme will be announced the middle of the week.

We picture to our Imagination the

roof and the other great buildings

the rendezvous in passover times

naturally think of it as an enormous

steep ascent which leads to the
city behind an American engine our
illusion disappears.
At last the guard calls out

as accommodating 1000. 900 guests
on the feast day could hardly enter

grims come every year from Russia
and Italy and France and Germany,
these nations have erected great
hotels outside the walls for the &C.

4 BAD DOCTOR

DR.. L. A. Merriam read a paper
last fall before the Missouri Valley
Medical Society and after he had
finished it a resolution was adopted
by the society returning DIR. Mer-
RAMS paper to him andr fusing to
have it published in the official
journal.
No wonder! Among other things
DR.. Merriam stated in his paper:
Not me physician in a hundred
knows how to advise people correct
ly IS to the details of correct think
ing and correct living. They lonk
for an anatomical lesion when there
may be none to be found, but they
pretend to find it and proceed to
treat it usually by operation.
We should like to add our protest
to that of the Missouri Valley Medi-
cal Society. DR.. Merriam was dis
tinctlv out Of order. He ought to
know that anybody who tells a
truth to that kind of a gathering of
doctors will not only get hirself

ROBERTS MAY PULL
OUT OF THE RACE

One of the questions that is now
disturbing the Republican peace of
mind is whether Ed Roberts, pres
ent congressman, is going to make
the race for the primary nominal
tion now that Judge HARDWOOD OF
Reno has made his announcement.
Saturday when it was declared
that Milton M. Detch of Goldfeld
would be q candidate for the Re-
publican nomination for congress,
Roberts wired to this city that II
Detch filed that his (Robrrt's) petit
tion WAS to be Withdrawn, but his
advice gave no instructions as to
what was to be done 9 snother
party fleJ. So when Detch with
drew and Harwood,s name went on
Roberts friends let his remain.
just what actor Roberts will
now take Is problematical. But il
is safe to say that II he figured
that Detcb would beat him and he
did not care to immediate himself
because Of that, he will now retire
in favor Of Harwood who is believ-
ed to be q much stronger man than
Detch. Appeal.

nesclark County Revisw diss-
pN1eonditiuns IN this state q fol-
J6Ia:
The principal trouble With the
1eytfnment Of Nevada today seems
70 Be that there are too many
stiieeFs drawing too much salary:
too tnany laws In the statutes and
too much laxity In the enforcement
Of some Of them. Fewer officers,
feMsr commissions, smaller salaries
in many instances and smuller ex-
:pense accounts in nearly all. fewer
appropriations and fewer laws Of
al kinds, would be a good platform
for all candidates for tina legisla-
ture to stand on this fall"
A legislature elected on such a
platform as the Review proposes
could reduce the expenses of the
state government materially with
out in the least impsi.ing its effic-
iency. Useless officials would be
severed from the treasury and the
principals in Office made to do the
work they r paid to Go, but
which q swarm of deputies now do
while the principals sit around,
play politics and look wis.,. This
evil exists in county governments
as well as in the state government.
If the taxpayers of the state want
such evils as the Review mentions
to stnr, they can stop them by
electing men to the legislature who
will apply the pruning knife where
ever it can be applied without i'm
pairing the public service.
