gistrado va en- otras muckAs poblacio-
mes del Estado y el g%obierno, ante el
tenor de que vaya a desarrollarse
una epidemic general, esta tomando
las medidas que lie ~aconseja Ia jun
ia de sandal.
Los gaviristas estan mas activos
que nunca, no obstante que va pa
saron las e%lecciones. Y7su a~ctividad
obedece al hecho de que los informes
o~ficiales que han estado siendo pu-
blicados.en los ~periodicos de:este puer
to v de Ia ciudad. de Mexico, refieren
que ell general Candida Agui!ar obtu'
vo ell triunfo. siendo. por 10 tanto, e.

A crowd of about seventy-fiye of Carlsle's representative citi zens stormed our neighbor town of Hazen Tuesday, making the trip in sixteen automobiles fur nished by different enthusiastic citizens.
 The object of the visit was to boost the Carlisle Chautauqua which takes place next Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday June 26, P and 28. Considerable ad- vertising matter was distributed and we mingled with our neigh bors for short time informing them of our mission, and were well met by every one we chanced to see, and were led to believe number of the good people of Hazen will attend our Chautauqua during it's progress here next week.

BOY SCOUTS MAKE HANDSOME D0-
 NATION
Traffic Posts Have Been Set And 0rdi- nance Is Being 0beyed Without
 Objection

The boy scouts of Carlisle are deserving of much praise and credit for the donation of five traffic posts for the town, which have been located at all the cross ings on Front street and one at the crossing at the Fair Store. The posts were put in at a cost of about $45.00 which were the gift of the Carlisle Boy Scouts.
 After the posts had been set the boys spent considerable time near them instructing travellers in the method of using them.
 This is one of the best moves that has been made in Carlisle as it reduces the danger of colli- sions to a minimum if the rules governing the traffic are adhered to.
 Very few objections have been

 The crowd of boosters enjoyed the trip to and from Hazen very much as well as the social good time while in that little city.
 We shall look for a goodly number of Hazen people in Car lisle next week and hope to not be disappointed.

Suppose you want to buy a horse. One man brings a picture of a horse; another man brings a real horse. Which interests you most- the picture or the real thing?
 The picture tells you noth- ing, except in a general way. What you want to know. as a prospective pur- chaser, is in a particular way. You want to know whether the horse is sound of lin b and body; how old, sturdy and active..it is, and something definite as to it's spirit. The picture tells you none of these things. You can learn them only by in- specting the horse closely and seeing it in action.
 It's just-as unsatisfactory
