GOV. CAMPBELL HERE.

Governor Campbell was a visi- itor here Tunsday. He was ac- companied by his private secre- tary and State Treasurer, Jesse Boyce. The purpose of the visit was to meet with the stockholders of the Lyman Water company.
 A meeting was held at the aca demy Tuesdaye7ening, where an estimate was given by Engineer Sellew of the probable cost of the completion of the Lyman dam and canal. Engineer Sellew's estimate was $1O per share, or $15O. 900.
 After the question was discuss ed pro and con by those present, Governor Campbell made the sug- gestion that $15 per share be as- sessed to make sure that suffi- cient funds might be available for the completion of the project and that if a surplus was on hand at the completion of the work on the dam and canal, the same could be turned back to the state and the people given credit forlt.
 Thegovernor said that the state would advance the money, but ask for proper security on the project. Tie matter was turned over to the Lyman board of di- rectors for their consideration and approval. s.a
 The building of the Lyman dam and canals is now an assured fact, and although the project is costing great deal of money, it will be worth while when the af7 fair is once completed and the fertile soil on the bench land is brought under irrigation,
 St. Johns. now a goodly place in which to live, will then be ideal. H

It Isn't Your TOwn,--It's You.

If you want to live in the kind of town Like the kind of town you like, You don't have to pack you clothes in a
 grip
 And go on long, long hike; For you'll find what you left behind. Though you travel the wide world
 through; You knock yourself when you knock
 your town
 It isn't your town-it's YOU! Great towns are not made by men afraid Lest some one else gets ahead; , If every one works and nobody shirks You can raise town from the dead. And if, while you make your personal
 stake,
 Your neighbor can make one too; Your town will be what you want to
 see
 It isn't yorr town-it's YOUl -Ex.

Road Hogs Get Caught


 A pair of road hogs, driving
 a Catolac No. 85OO4 car Calif.,
 seeemed to have tried to do all the
 damage possible on the way here
 and a number of tourists only es- caped injury by giving the entire road. These human swine con- tinued this practice until within about six miles of this place when they tried to ram a Chalmers car No. 144533. The driver to save his car gave the road and received a glancing blow. The driver says the approaching car not only took all the road but the wheel marks showed a few inch- es of crook in their direction when few feet away
 |. Without stopping to see what damage they had done they went down the road at high speed and their next victims were a boy on a motorcycle with his little sister in the sid car and our informant claimed was deliberate attempt to murder. The little machine could not have been struck had not the brutes deliberately aim- ed st.it, as it was entirely out of the road, as far as the rocks would allow and one hundred and fifty yards of unobstructed view of the road between the car and the little machine by the roadside. It was badly damaged and turned over, throwing the little girl about twelve feet where she lay. appearantly dead; while the boy, a husky young fellow, although badly skinned ups after his sister had become concious and placed in an automobile in care of a lady, he found that the motorcycle would stlll run, and road It into town. An attempt to stop the car here by Mir. Frank Blumenau who fired a few shots at the fugitives. but his little ri- file only made them go faster.
 Deputy Alvin Trammell phon- ed our Sheriff at St.. Johns who caught them near that town and brought them back and we are informed that Judge Biglow fined them S75.OO each.
 Had our Cowboys seen that pretty little ten year old girl as she lay on her bed suffering as we saw her, and think she was valued a. seventy five dollars. we think they might have taken notion to settle it out of Court. SpringervilIe Hustler.

Third Red Cross
 Roll Call Why's
l WHY THE NOVEMBER ROLL

WHY THE NOVEMBER ROLL
 CALL?
 BECAUSE one year ago in
 November war ceased. The
 Armistice anniversary is a fitting
 time to give the Red Cross a vote
 of confidence. Your one dollar
 membership will do that and en-
 able the Red Cross to continue it's
 activities.
 WHY?-the necessity of these activities now that the war is over?
 BECAUSE-the devastation caused by war is not over. For the next year, at least, in addition to the very definite pacee pro- grom of the organization the Red Cross will be giving attention to 30, 900 returned, soldiers, sailors and marines confined in American hospitals, and will expend ap- proximately $500. 900 monthly in assisting thousands of the fami- lies of the boys. ,
 WHY-A Red, Cross peace time program? 4" BECAUSE The Red Cross is better organizediand equipped to actin disaster emergencies, to improve public health. sanitation and nursing conditions than any other existing organization. It also stands ready to supplement the work of other existing agen- cies where assistances,is needed. Fell your prospective member about Red Cross work at Corpus Christi about Red Cross on the Mexican border about aid in the California forest fres-about help in the Influenza epidemic--about aid to vocational soldier students in universities.
 WHY-continue to send money for relief abroad? '' BECAUSE rthere are still minor obligations the Red Cross is pledg- ed to complete in the devasted countries. This foreign relief work is all but concluded and a very small percentage of one dollar membership funds se- cured will be used outside6f the United States.
 WHY will the Roll Gall be held more than month in advance of the expiration of 1919 member ships?
 BECAUSE This is the home Christmaslof of the soldiers. Many families are planning re- unions anda Roll Gall workers would ben difficult to enlist ip December. vln h, (3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS weather conditions in many rural com .munities make canvassing diff cult. BECAUSE Washington has a great task to complete and the peace program to plan and these resources. will be derived from 1920 memberships.
 IBECAUSE-all memberships for 1920 date from January l. 1920, to January 1, 1921. Consequent ly November renewals do not effect the period of membership:
