MISS Gates
RARE SONG
R ECIT AL

That we are to enjoy very de-
lightful evening on the occasion OF
Miss Gates recital here is evidenced
by the enthusiastic reception given
her recitals in Salt Lake and Ogden
this week. ADropos of heriSalt Lake
engagement the Herald Republican
has the following to say:
With her artistic achievements In
opera fresh in the minds of those
present, to sit an evening under the
spell OF the superb soprano voice OF
Lucy Gates in a lieder program OF
a high order seemed to the enraptur'
ed audience at Salt Lake theater last
night like change in the personal
ity but not in the gift OF the singer
II was evident that Miss Gates felt
some constraint In the repose of a
concert chantreuse that tugged ut
her desire to throw her whole dram
attic fervor into interpretative action;
and yet, this subdued spirit enhanced
the earnestness that went home to

RIVERS OF GASOLINE

We will consume in this country,
this year almost 1000, 100000 gallons
OF gasoline; which is the equivalent
of a stream six feet wide and one
foot deep flowing at the rate of one
mile an hour. Five years ago gaso.
line retailed at 80 cents in England
and from 40 to 10 cents on the Con-
tinent and there are those who even
predict 40 cent gasoline here some
day.
Recent improvements in refining
have considerably increased the per-
centage of gasoline extracted and in
yentors are confident of perfecting
carburetors which will use kerosene;
but for the present we are confronted
with decrease in the gasoline con-
tent of the older oil wells and an
insufficient capacity in the refining
plants. Our exports, however, of gas
oline in 1915 were considerably less
than In 1914, although more crude oil
was sent abroad. There Is also a
strong probability that, with the re-
construction and resumption of bust
ness abroad at the close of the wal
consumption there will be greater
than now. Horses will be scarce ant
time will be everything, and the mo
tor car and truck will receive
great impetus.
Just how long the present oil we'll
will continue to. produce. or whei
and where new oil fields will b.
discovered, no one can say with Gel
lainty. Before that day arrives, how
ever, it is fair to expect that chen
lists will have found some substitut
or inventors a method of making on

Feudallsm In the Home.

Nowhere more strongly than In the

Until this feeling Is eliminated the

WHEN UTAH GOES DRY
BY Sarah E. Milton

There'll still be plenty Of water,
When Utah goes dry.
And more new dresses for some
ones daughter,
When Utah goes dry.
And somebody will have more money,
To buy nice things like cake and
honey,
And yet some think it will seem
funny,
When Utah goes dry.
ThereTl still be fun and frolic,
| When Utah goes dry.
But don't let baby get the collie,
When Utah goes dry.
For there won't be any brandy,
| That is not so very handy,
But for other reasons twill be dandy,
When Utah goes dry.
The politicians now are raving,
For Utah to go dry.
They seem to have sort OF craving,
For Utah to go dry.
They say the proper time has come,
When we should close the doors OF
rum.
So let the voting be we'll done,
Vote Utah all dry.
Our prospects to will seem the
brighter,
When Utah Goes dry.
Policemen's duties will be lighter,
When Utah goes dry.
Then none will hang around at nigh
With bottles hid away from sight
i And deeds that can't endure the light
when Utah goes dry.
|. The courts won't have so nue.
i ADDING,

v Divorces won't be always brewing,
q When Utah goes dry.
o Then pa and ma I'll walk out togethe
X Through fair or fine or cloudy wei
N Their,
r. As BOOKING pals will have gone hithe
r When Utah goes dry.
II. Now let's get out and hustle,
IN Till Utah goes dry.
k. But don't lose your head or use yo'
w muscle.
C. To get Utah to go dry.
Just get father dear and mother,
Sister fair and great big brother
Sweetheart too or any other
To vote Utah all dry.

TRUCE DECLARED N
C0UNTY-G|TY WAR
Constables Sales to Be Held
Hereafter on Court House
Lawn.

Contabies Leslie Michaels and
Charles Satterfield who were arrested
two weeks ago with Melvin Bunner,
all on charge OF blockading the streets
OF Fairmont, were dismissed last even
Ing at their hearing before Mayor An
thony Bowen. They were arrested
while selling at public auction GER
tain goods in front of the court house.
Bunner was tried several days ago
and fined $40 and costs. He appealed
the case. AS soon as Michaels and Sat
terfield were dismissed last evening
Mayor Bowen announced that the case
against Bunner would also be dropped
and his fine remitted.
The reason for passing up the pros
ecution Of Michaels and Saterfeld as
given by he mayor Is that the county
court has ruled that never again Will
the county constables sell their wares
on the street and that whenever gen
uine sales under execution are 70 bo
held they viii take place In the court
house yard facing Meredith street and
Jefferson street. This will necessi-
tate that all persons attending such
sale be allowed the freedom OF the
court house lawn which has been
granted.
There are charges Of interferfng
with an officer sttll pending against
Mayor Anthony Bowen, police Ford,
Harr and Pitzer.
