Something Should Be Done

SOmeCnlng SnOulO De dOne CO secure better order at the Santa Fe entertainments. It would seem that common courtesy and appreciation ought to secure per feet order at all of these, but experience proves to the contrary.
 The last entertainment, the reading by Prof. Clark of Chicago University, was one of the very best of the kind ever given in Williams. We have yet to hear any one who attended it speak to She contrary. Yet, the order kept was extremely poor. h. considerate persons some Mex jean, some Greek, and some American-persisted in chatter ing and giggling, moving about and passing in and out, even while the entertainer was read ing.
 : Why is this? Why is it so many people will come to these entertainments only to walk out before the program is over, a nd without the least considerati on for the entertainers? Something ought to be done, but just what is difficult to say.
 In the first place if the cause of these parties leaving could be ascertained, it might be easier to find way of solving the prob lem. Perhaps it is because these disturbers come to the entertain ment without knowing what they are coming to. If that is the case it would be a great help if those giving the entertainment would appoint door keeper to question each one on entering. Another suggestion we would offer, is that if someone were appointed to keep t h e door closed, permitting no one to pass out except between numbers, announcement to this effect being continually made, it is probable that much of the dis turbance might be overcome.
 At any rate, something ought to be done, and we hope will be done to prevent another excellent program being disturbed in the way the last one was. ;,

The charity matinee given last Sunday was a move in the right direction. MT. Sweetwood should be commended for the good spirit in which he offered the enter tainment and the use of his hall. Another will be given next Sun day, and it is to hoped that the attendance will be larger. It should be born in mind that every cent of the receipts goes to aid the needy of Williams.

When we tell you that Vinol is the
best remedy in our whole stock for
making weak, puny, ailing children

telling you what has been proved by
hundreds of mothers.
]. L. Tickling, Macon, Ca, says:
my child was very thin and delicate,
no appetite, nervous, and did not
sleep well. Doctors did not help her.
Vinol was recommended and the
change after fair trial was wonder
full. She sleeps soundly all night, has
a splendid appetite and has gained in
weight. wish every mother knew
what Vinol will do for delicate chill
dren"
What Vinol did for this little girl
1t will do for every weak and ailing
child because sickly children need

tains-that is why Vinol builds them
up quickly and gives them a fine,

They owe their lives to the fact they had
been ponned in an excavation under their
home, where thoy had been able to move
about to some extent, but they were suf-

and four were unconscious.
Soldiers had heard muffled cries coming
from the wreckage several days ago, but
during the last 4S hours those members
OF the family who remained conscious
were too weak to call out.
Many soldiers were wounded at sora,
Aveno, Celeno and Pescina, it was learn
ed, by the earthquake shock that
caused further ruination in the stricken
towns yesterday afternoon. Those hurt
were digging in the ruins in the hope OF
finding other victims of the qualSes who
