4 Once more lay aside the broom to
take the pen and / hope you get rs
much from my weekly budget" as
get from yours
The children have been so miserable
with grippe that haven't tried to do
much this week: no entertaining al all.
A benefit ball was given Smith Whip
At Crested Butte last Friday night,
which Melted over one hundred dollars
for him. II Was so cold We didn't try
TO go but quite a number went from
Gunnison.
4 number of our fellow townsmen
went down to Delta the 18th TO be pres
emit at the dedication of an Odd Fellows
hall there. Mr.. Webster. Mr.. Latiner.
and Mr.. Miller were present
Last Saturday We heard that Mike
Quinn, the popular Baldwinite, is the
father Of a bouncing boy-Mike Jr.
Just the other day Dexter Sapp re-
ceivcd the sad news that his aged
mother had been injured in a runaway
and he left Immediately to b. with her
N ner last hours.
This week the Tribune published the
li.t Of the children who had not been
absent nor tardy and Ethel and Dick
are quite pulled up to think they got
their names in the paper for not being
absent nor tardy this year.
The Gunnison county teachers met in
the High school building Saturday. Miss
Matte Brown presided in place of
County Superintendent Logan, who is
absent on business.
We hear that a smelling and reduc-
ton WORKS is to be built in Crystal; at
least we are sure that articles OF incor-
pOration for such works have been filed.
The incorporators and owners are the
HoiTmans and the capital stock is
So, 600.
Another thing we heard just the other
day: Henry C. Olney, formerly editor
Of the Gunnison Review Press, was ap-
pointed secretary of the state board Of
charities and corrections in Denver.
Isn't that fine?
And say! Say! D. j. Lehsn just
came in from Iris and announced to his
friends in Gunnison that he is the father
OF fine big boy. Dan vows that the
boy is to be named after him and he is
so happy that he only hits the high
places when travelling about camp.
And that brings to mind another vel
come addition to the younger generation
Of our county. Last Sunday morning a
baby girl was born in the G. w. Light
ley home on Ohio Creek.
Let's see-yesl guess that's all.
Chss. Hazelhurst and family have
moved down from Crested Butte and
Charlie takes the switch-engine here
again.
Mercy. must stop. The baby is
crying and coughing SO! This grippe is
dreadfully hard on US grownups, not to
say anything about the little tots.

band and family. Mary, and don't for.
get your letter this week. There! The
baby is crying again.
In haste,
Agnes.
