Parents Take Notice.

The railroad park at this place
has been turned over to the town
authorities who are now expected
to look after IT. Several children
of the tow have been in the hab-
it of romping about in the park
and doing considerable damage
to the shrubbery and grass. The
town board desires fer the park
to remain open to the public and
requests that the parents see that
their children respect the rules
so we may have a neat and beau
tiful rest place instead of torn
up on0 The town board intends
to take whatever steps necessary
10 keep the park in good shape,
and will not hesitate to keep the
children who will not behave
themselves outside.

Bowen people have been "hol-
lering' all summer for better
roads to Monte Vista and really
they cannot be blamed for TAX
ing a better route if it is afford
ed. However, we would advise
them not to go too strong on
Alamosa road promises as it is
a notorious fact that there has
not been a decent road leading
into Alamosa from any direc-
ton in the memory of man.
The joker in the Alamosa plan
as regards Bowen is that it is
proposed to have the work
done and have Rio Grande
county pay the bills.
A large appropriation will
soon be available from the Fed
eral government for work on
rural roads. The policy of the
government has always been to
expend their money where the
counties are spending some of
the county money-in other
words, a cooperative plan. 1t
is not likely that the govern
ment will step in and build a
road which the county commits
sioners evidently do not think
it worth while to keep up.
