REHoBoTH BEACH.

1t is becoming evident that while
the early summer found this resort
not so well patrOnized as in former
years, it is now approaching a boom
period that will eliminate next year
in a season of unusual prosperity.
The various improvements com
pleted, begun or contemplated, are
such as are destined to make this re-
sort one Of the most favored on the
coast. Few are so well situated for
bathing, fishing sailing and other sea-
side sports as Rehoboth, and with the
completion Of the new board walk,
the prospective completion of the
canal, and the possibility of improved
train service, the future of the. resort
is favorable, indeed.
Already the spirit of improvement
is taking hold of the community as
is evidenced by the grading and sod
ding of portions of the beach front,
particularly i'm front of the Shaw
cottage. the erection of new buildings,
and the sale of numerous lots in
North Rehoboth, to those far sighted
enough to see the early completion of
the canal.
There is no lack OF public spirited
citizens in Rehoboth, who have its
future progress at heart. AT their

NOT ENOUGH CHILDREN

ever receive the proper balance of food
to sufficiently nourish both body and
brain during the growing period when
natures demands are greater than in
mature life. This is shown in so many
pale faces, lean bodies, frequent colds,
and lack of ambition.
For all such children we say with
unmistakable earnestness: They need

before the lofty Wasatch mountains
came into existence. The raising uf
of the mountains went on slowly for
ages. so slowly that the river kept
its place by cutting down its ever.
rising bed, carving n deep and mar
row canyon straight through the
block of the earth's crust as ii rose.
In no other way can we nationally
account for river rising on one side
of the range and flowing directly
across 1t. Movement OF the mountain
mass has continued down to the
present time-at least there has bee /
recent disturbance along the base "
the Wasatch Range, as is shown by
faults which traverse the lake de-
posits and the modern alluvial aprons
Some of the breaks are so new as to
be devoid of vegetation. The upward
of the mountains has been
so continuous that the river has lad
no opportunity to widen its valley,
a task which it will begin as soon
as the mountains cease rising. (Over.
