The ideal winter weather which W.
are enjoying is a source of wonder TO
those who drop in on us from the
murky east with its damp and dark
fogs, to say nothing of the very low
temperature which almost freezes the
marrow in the bones. No wonder tn,
people escaping from such a climate
are more than enthusiastic over such
weather as they find in good old Colo
RADIO.
1t took four sleds and wagon to
transport the office furniture and some
household furniture of the families of
1.-THE White River forestry officers from
Meeker to Glenwood. The freighters
made the start last Saturday, landing
the goods here Tuesday at $3.50 p. m
The moving especially at this season,
meant no small task for the office force,
but they will be in readiness for bust
ness at once, in their new quarters in
the First National bank block.

H. R. Holmes of the Carbondale 1rr.-
cation and Reservoir company was at
tending to business in Glenwood last
Tuesday. Mr.. Holmes has spent the
most of the winter in Denver where he
has brought out some original ideas in
motor car construction. The chief idea
embodied in his. new plan contemplates
a car with the motive power applied 10
the front instead of the rear axle. Wo
shall hope to see the new boat put on
the market some time during the pres
ent year. Speaking of the irrigation
project on the mesa near Carbondale in
which Mr.. Holmes and Mr.. Stovall ara
interested, Mr.. Holmes informed the re-
porter that the prospects for the future
are very bright and says some wonder
full crops were produced the past year
by residents OF tMissouri Heights
and that all are looking forward most
hopefully to the coming season.
