The Kyrl Musical Recital

A large and appreciative audience
greeted the Bohumir Kryl company
at the High school auditorium, on
Wednesday evening.
We say appreciative, becaure the
various numbers were listened to
with marked attention and accorded
warm applause ut conclusion.
Professors Kyrl's head is thatched
in n way that leaves no doubt as to
his great musical abilities; and, -
they say in the classics, he deliver
ed the goods"
The two Misses Kyrl are certainly
great.
Judging by the expressions Of those
whose opinions are worth while,
Meeker had an opportunity to enjoy
some high class music as result
Of the visit Of the Kyrl company to
this out of the way town.

high and ten or more Of our public
spirited citizens guaranteed the Kryl

An Interesting and Instructive Ad-
dress


Having a couple OF days at his dis
posal, Hon. Edward T. Taylor, con-
gresham for this district, motored
over to Mesker, Wednesday. and
that afternoon delivered an interest
ing an instructive address TO the stu
dents OF Rio Bianco County High
school, and goOdiy gathering Of
grown people.
The subject Of Mr.. Taylor's ad-
dress WAS the present great war In
Europe, and its bearing on problems
that confront this nation; notably
that Of defense. During the course
Of his remarks, the speaker made it
known that he favored placing this
country in position Of thorough de-
Tense against attack by any and all
possible foreign foes.
In this attitude, 1t is needless to
say, our able and hard working con-
gresham will have the support Of
the large majority Of his constitu-
ents.
In the trip over to Meeker, Mr..
Taylor was accompanied by Mrs.
Taylor and Mrs. Clark, a Glenwood
friend.

About 3 o'clock last Saturday AZ
ternoon fire alarm was sent in from
the western end Of town. It was found
that the barn at the Colon home In
the northwestern end of town was
aflre. The property is occupied by
the Dixon family. A cleanup was
being made In the yard and the rub
bish burned. A stiff breeze blowing
at the time, carried the flames
against the barn, which was soon
aflame. The prompt arrival of the
FIRE department and neighborly as
sistance, confined the flames to the
barn and an adjoining shed, which
was consumed and the barn almost .
total loss. Covered by insurance.

Salt

The average person seldom uses
salt except to season his food. There
are many other ways, however, In
which 1t may be helpful to Mr.. Com
mon People.
1t is frequently used as a medicine
andssas a wash for the tonsils or eyes.
1t is beneficial when used this way
but should not supplement- medical
treatment. In case no doctor is at
hand, it may be used to hold In check
a sore throat or to strengthen sore or
strained eyes. Salt may also be used
rs an emetic and n laxative.
Salt is invaluable to people who
have anything to do with water in
winter time. When placed in water
1t lowers the freezing point in pro-
portion to the amount used. Salt
placed on an icy sidewalk will melt
the ice immediately.-Bern Elan

lege.
