NEW cAsTLE's POULTRY SHOW

in every way success. The largest
exhibit of purebred poultry ever shown
in Garfield county and possibly the

western slope was shown in New Castle
last week.
A number of the visitors gave it as
their opinion that the show exceeded
many of the large city shows in quality
and number of varieties of birds. In
tact 1t was a matter Of surprise to
many that such a small community
would undertake to hold poultry show
and especially that they should make
such an excellent showing.

held by the Christian and Methodist
churches are creating much interest.

students attended in body and on
Sunday the members of the Bachelors
club were present. Tuesday evening
was business mems night. Arrange
ments are being made to have the Ma
sonic, Odd Fellows and other secret
organizations attend some of the meet
ings in body.
Brothers Hutchins and Bennett, pas
tors of the two churches, are both force
full speakers and are splendid examples
of men who lead Christian lives They
are both devoting their entire time to
the work and should receive the good
will and support of our citizens in their
untiring efforts.
The singing is worth going to hear.
A seat is waiting for you every night,
except Saturday, at 1870 o'clock.
All We that are weary-Come.
Do you need a friend Come
Whatsoever your lot-Come.
Whosoever you are-Come.
Yes, come and bring your friends, is
the slogan during this revival cam
paign which will be continued for at
least two more weeks.

$4,000. 1t is to be built by the cattle
men Of this section to be used for
many purposes, such as banquets, public
gatherings dances, basketball and gym
nastic exercise.
A number of our musicians are talk
ing about organizing band for the
coming season. Nearly all the former
band boys are still residing here and
we see no reason why such an organiza-
ton cannot be perfected and well sup
ported by our citizens. They can have
nearly any good thing they want III
Rifle, and "why not band?'
The dance and social given at the
Rifle Creek school building last Friday
night was well attended and a good
time enjoyed by all. The music was

the Bachelors to an old time sleigh ride.
Seawell Bros, who have been winter
