PLANS PROGRESSING FOR
COMMUNITY CHRISTMAS

Definite plans have now been made
for Delta's Community Christmas. As
announced, building on Main street
will be opened and ladies will receive
donations, which will be distributed
to the needy.
The gifts asked for will include
money, poultry, provisions, farm pro
duce, toys, and clothing, If in good
condition and clean. The idea is that
families frequently have articles of
clothing given them as gifts and may
have more than the child can wear
out before they are outgrown; or for
various reasons one may have good
left over clothing which can be used
for those in need
On Christmes evening at the Meth
odist church a Community Sing will
be held. and a vested choir of chill
dren, carrying candles, will form the
professional and recessional, giving
numerous Christmas carols. There
will also be Christmas story and a
few other numbers to make up a
short. but interesting program. This
will be announced next week.

is dead from a pistol shot fired by
Salvador Mera on the station platform
at Roubideau Friday evening. and his
intended victim, Louis Paris, escaped
with a scalp wound, while Mera is be-
ing held in the Jail awaiting a hear
ing.
The three Mexicans, accompanied
by Paris wife boarded the train for
Roubideau, Mera riding in the smoker
and the others in the day coach.
They left the train at Roubideau
and just as the highball was given to
start three shots were heard. Several
passengers at first thought they had
struck torpedo on the track, but the
next thing a shot came crashing
through the window, narrowly avoid
ing passengers seated within the car.
Two of the shots splintered pieces
from the window casing.
The train was stopped and Gutierrez
was seen staggering to the ground
with shot in his stomach. Mera
