Mayor Says Civic Club
Should Help City Dads

adapted to these purposes, and for
the Red Cross library which has been
suggested. This should be a county
library, for several reasons readily
conceivable. The basement could be
converted into an attractive gymna-
sium, let us say, for young boys who
now, all too often. frequent places
which afford poor environment for
embryo citizens. Then you would
still have the auditorium for meet
ings. private theatricals. dances, and
the everywhere-popular community
sings and for many other purposes.
II believe there is enough money in
the opera house fund at this time to
do all the conversion work necessary
about the theatre. / believe the trus-
tees will be glad to put the money to
this community use. What fine
thing it would be if we could get all
these plans fairly started for a
Christmas present to the town! And
be ready to commence the work i'm
mediately the first month of 1921,
"One of the reasons for the SEEM
ing chaos which has attended the adj
vent of prohibition in the United
States is that the people have had no
way of spending great amount of
time which formerly was passed in
saloons. They have not yet adjusted
their thought processes to changed
conditions. All community enter
prises and activities help in this d.
rection."
well, then, Mr.. Mayor. you be-
lieve there is plenty of chance in
town for activity on the part of the
Winnemucca Civic Club?" was asked.
II do believe that. most heartily;
and so do all other men of the town.
l guess" was the reply. I'VE are
proud of our women. We believe in
them. We will back them. And as
Mayor l may say that the city coun-
Gil will be more than pleased to see
large delegation of members of your
club at every council meeting, and to
accept ideas and suggestions from the
ladies. l am sure l speak for the
entire council when l say we urge
the ladies to take active part in every
civic affair.""

Later. Mrs. Louise Pedroli filed a pc

is the widow of Pedroli: that she
never waived any of her rights as
such. and was accordingly entitled
to be named as Administrative of the
estate.
The matter was tried In the lower
court, with the result that Mrs. Pc
droli was declared to be the widow
of Charles Pedroli. Scott was re-
moved as administrator and the wom-
an was appointed administrative.
