500 FEET CONCRETE PAVE.
FOR GOLDEN BELT IN SALINE

Salina Union: Concrete road fol
Saline county.
As a start, 500 feet of the Golden
Belt, along the Holmquist farm, 2 u
miles west of the city, will be con
GREETED to a width of 16 feet.
Along this place there has al
ways been bad mudhole, especially
after flooding rains when the water
from the hills swept down. To per-
manently improve this, this 500
foot stretch will be concreted.
The remainder of the road will
be kept up as before, rivaling that
section of the Golden Belt in Saline
county from Salina east, which is
said to be unsurpassed by any
'ther section of country road in |
he state.

ROBERT BARNES is NOW
PLAYING IN SAN FRANCISCO

F. NJ. Northcraft received a copy
of the San Francisco Play-Bill, a
theatrical paper, which contains
this notice:
"The Athon players have become
the rage in the Fillmore district.
Putting on two tabloids each week,
each far removed in plot and &C
ton from the other, has given San
Franciscans a new view of what
versatility really is. Bob Athon,
Baby Verna and the rest Of the
troupe blend 'pathos and humor,
song and joke, tragedy and satire !,
alternately, as plays and situations
call for them. and with an ease
that is astonishing. Other cities are
calling for the Athons, but San
Francisco wants them most"
Athon is the stage name of Robert /
Barnes, formerly of Abilene; his I
wife and child are in the cast. They
played s weeks at Honolulu, Al at
seattle and IA at Portland.
