The Rocky Ford Music club held its
annual open meeting on Monday even
ing, the musical program being held at
afterward at the home of the president,
Mrs. Olive Van Buskirk. The music
store was tastefully arranged and dec
Grated for the occasion, and as each of
the 35 members was allowed to bring
two guests the room was comfortably
filled.
To the general public the most inter
esting business of the club was the de-
termination to give music festival
next spring under the auspices of the
club. The program was especially fine
and deserving of extended mention, but
we have space only to report upon the
singing of Prof. Austin of La Junta,
who was compelled to give an encore
after the two numbers for which he was
down.
With countless bouquets of carnations
and beautiful flowers the spacious Van
Buskirk residence was attractively dec
Grated for the reception. The members
and guests were graciously received by
Mesdames VanBuskirk and Joehnck.
Impromptu violin music by MessrsSever
and Dent and Miss Garfield, and selec-
tions on the Victrola, contributed to
the enjoyment of the reception. De-
licious refreshments of ice cream, cof-
fee, cake, sailed almonds and mints
were served and it was midnight before
the reception broke up.
The Sans Souci club met with Mrs. S.
S. Phillips on Tuesday afternoon, with
almost every member in attendance.
The program for the afternoon was of
unusual interest and one of the best for
the entire club year. Mrs. Bushey gave
her paper Government in India" Mrs.
Lawyers paper was "Kipling's India"
and Mrs. H. w. Royal gave a compre-
hensive talk on "Rabindranath Tagore
and His Poetry" Each paper showed
special effort in preparation and they
were highly appreciated. The hostess
served delectable refreshments. The
guests were Mesdames Cover, w. B.
Goblin, and Miss McKelvey.
The monthly social of the w. R. C.
will be held at the home of Mrs. Sam
Lopez in the Thomas addition. next

WET" TOWNS IN DRY" TERRITORY.

Those from Beaver who attended the
ball game at Knowles Sunday are con
vinced that Knowles aud Mocane a
least. are very wet towns eveuif they
are located in dry" territory The
wetness" was caused however, from
general down.pour which visited
that section Sunday afternoon aud no.
because Of any breach Of the prohibitory
laws. A large number Of Beaver peo-
pie accompanied the Beaver ball team
TO Knowles Sunday TO witness the re.
turn game which our team played with
Knowles that day. just about the
time the game was finished a rain was
threatening but Beaver people buoyed
up with victory which our team won,
and incidentally, wanting to get home
pretty bad, started out. They had all
kinds OF experiences along the way
many OF which will never be known
except to themselves, but from the
stories they tell, II must have been n
mighty tough trip. They report that
about three inches Of water fell in that
section and draws and ravines were
running full After wading out push
ing out, and lifting out they finally
managed to reach Mocane whore they
stayed all night, Their trip home
Monday morning from that place was
fright Every body kept smiling
though, which showed their good com
mon sense but which ia not always
easy to do under such circumstances
and through II all they managed to get
lot Of fun out of the experience.
From reports which have reached us.
il seems that Chief Garrett and Al
Fosher had about the worst exper.
fences to relate, Chief run into
ravine full Of water which Hooded his
car and Of course, stalled it.. The
water was so high that It run through
the body Of his car, and the occupants
men, women and children were com
PEELED to wade out. Al Fosher had
almost similar experience In cross.
ing ravine the front of his car was
almost submerged, the engine aud
carburetor flooded and the starting
system put out OF commission. An
the others had unpleasant, II not quite
so serious, experiences. II was
muddy, weary looking bunch that
pulled into Beaver Monday afternoon.

Hatiiehl,s Address.

Governor Hatfclds address before

tute at Fairmont, which Is published in

frank and friendly to that assemblage.
He did not hesitate to tell the institute
that within Its organization there were
u few men who had II in" for the chief
executive OF the state. but he was glad
to realize that such spirit was not
general among its members. The gov
ernor emphasized the fact that he had
meant to be true friend to the coal
Industry and that he realizes that the
industry needs the cooperation Of the
people. However. the governor point
ed out that he and the state admfnis-
tration had not overlooked other in
dustries OF the state rs It was for the
states best welfare that they all he
encouraged In all Legitimate ways pos
sible.
IN this connection II Is not out OF
place to state that In addition to bring
ing the Paint Creek strike to a close,
Governor Hatfield settled the New
'hiyer miners strike In three DAYS.
That strike of 10000 men followed
closely the end OF the Paint Creek
strike. 1t was declared July 3. The
coal operators appealed TO the COVER
nor. He took the matter up with the
miners. July the strike ended as n
result OF his personal efforts. What
other man ever settled strike in SO
short time? That was certainly n
mastery achievement on his part.

longation OF the strike would have in.

after transferred and one OF the worst
strikes in history ensued. That ac-
compllshment alone saved the people
Of West Virginia much trouble and
money.
Indeed. the records show that Gov
crnor Hatfield has been a true friend
10 the coal industry and when 1t is
understood, MS II should be, by the
people that his course in that respect
has boon consistent with the hest pub
lie policy and for the equitable inter-
ests of all concerned. including in
dustrlal development and the welfare
OF the citizens OF the state, calumny

WHY Not Re Isrnnlso

"A fat treasury is no sign OF
sound craftsmanship: If so. the pres
emit national administration is a fiat
failure" This is from the Houston
Post. Why qualify the assertion?
Just leave off the III so" and state
the bald truth that the present ma
tional administration is fiat fail

Most people are inclined to regard
treasury surplus as evidence OF
good administration. Most people are
Inclined to think that an administra-
ton that can pay as it goes. that does
not have to report to petty direct and
vexatious taxation, is success.
Most people in this country have be-
come accustomed to that kind of an
administration throughout the long
periods of Republican control of gov
eminent. Most people have come to
understand that a fat treasury never
occurs under Democratic admins
tration. Most people associate lean
treasury with Democratic policies.
So. why not be frank about it?
