CIVIC CLUB FORMED

said to be disregarded, with the re-
suit that several unsightly dumps
offend travellers who visit the city,
particularly those who drive in.
Another matter was that of a clean
up day. Many weeds, it was said, not
only disfigure the city but are dan
gerous fire menaces. 1t was opinion
the law against weeis should be en-
forced.
Some talk of accepting men as hon.
orary members was INDUCED in, but
nothing along this line was decided.
Another matter which probably will
come promptly before the club after
organization will be that of social
evenings to encourage community
spirit.
An outstanding fact which became
apparent early in the meeting yester-
day was that men of Winnemucca en-
couraged their wives to join this
civic club, and many were the offers
of assistance and cooperation brought
from the sterner sex.
One idea which was well expressed
by some ladies present was that thrift,
good order. community spirit. prog
ress and prosperity are just as con-
tagious in a city as are their opposite
characteristics. squalor, disorder,
pessimism, strife. retrogression, and
lawlessness.
The Winnemucca Civic Club pur-
posely left the word "Woman's" out
of it's name.
The Winnemucca Civic Club has a
most suspicious beginning.

AUSTIN SUMMIT HAS
BEEN SURMOUNTED

The Austin Summit road is finished
and open for travel. The last Gull
vert has been put in, faced with con-
crete, and pronounced complete. Mr..
Cross has broken camp, loaded the
tools and machines on the cars and
on Tuesday will drive his little brown
fiivver to Tonopah, where there is
some unfinished work to look after,
says the Reese River Reveille. When
the work was all done, the Reveille
mar vas invited to join the engineer
on his final inspection trip over the
grade. The little old Ford car, with
n cylinder missing, went to the
summit without h%esitating, and part
OF the way on high.
The surface of the road is in splen-
did shape, there is little variation in
the grade, which is plenty wide for
cars to pass. and the trip became a
joy ride. Sounds strange to talk
about Nevada roads in that way, does
1t not? When the Ford passed the
summit on the return trip Mr.. Cross
simply shut off the gasoline, let her
into high gear, and steered around
the bends to upper Austin, once or
twice giving her a little gas when
she ioafed on the job toe much. The
brake was not used from the summit
to the lower end of the grade.
AT the point where the new road
connects with the old is a curve
which a careless driver might not see
fast. and the car would go over into
the big ditch or washout in the bot
tom of the canyon. A substantial
fence has been built here, to be paint

SALTS F|NEFOR
ACHING KIDNEYS
We eat too much meat which
clogs Kidneys, then the
Back Hurts.

Most folks forget that the kidneys,
like the bowels, get sluggish and
clogged and need flushing occa-
sionally, else we have backache and
dull misery in the kidney region, Sc
we're headaches, rheumatic twinges,
torpid liver, acid stomach, sleepless-
ness and all sorts Of bladder disor-
ders.
You simply must keep your kid
neys active and clean, and the mo-
ment you feel an ache or pain in the
kidney region get about four ounces
of Jad Salts from any good drug
store here, take tablespoonful in
a glass of water before breakfast for
a few days and your kindeys will
then act fine. This famous salts is
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon juice, combined with lithia,
and is harmless to flush clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to nor
NAL activity. 1t also neutralizes the
acids in the urine so it no longer ir-
ritates, thus ending bladder disor-
ders.
Jad Salts is harmless, inexpensive;
makes a delightful effervescent
lithia-water drink which everybody
should take now and then to keep
their kidneys clean, thus avoiding
serious complications.
A well-known ,local druggist says
he sells lots of 'Jad Salts to folks
who believe in overcoming kidney
trouble while it is only trouble.

League of Women Voters.

In 1919, the League of Women
Voters was formed by Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait in ST. Louis. This
league is nationwide organiza-
tion, automatically taking the place
of the variehs state suffrage asso-
CITATIONS as the women of the states
become enfranchised. The principal
object of this organization is to
raise the standard of citizenship of
both men and women. so every voter
shall be able to read his, or her. own
ballot, speak the language of the
country, and understand its aims
and policies. Over its eight COM
mittees are appointed national
chairmen. Mrs. Bagley heads its
American citizenship committee. To
meet the aims of the League of
Women Voters, new type of citi-
zenship school is arising all over
the country. These are working out
syliabi, simple enough for the i'm
migrant woman, for the casual vot-
er. aiming at nothing more obtuse
than information as to how to find
out where her election district lies,
and how to register and enroll, and,
finally, they are ample enough to
give a complete understanding of
the theories of government, and a
follow-up study of the RESPONSE
ibilities Of citizens. A graded sys-
ten, of education in eivics is called
for. Nothing is too simple, ~and
nothing too scholarly and abstract
for the demands of the awakening
woman. A significant phase of the
movement is the cooperation of
secondary schools and colleges in
this movement.
The woman citizen, the woman's
political journal, has carried for the
past two years series of articles
on civic questions, legislative stand
ards, policies of various political
parties, and news about the growth
: of these new citizenship schools.

NONGESTION and overorowd-
in0 In housing L. heinz felt In

TONGESTION and overorowd-
ing in housing, is being felt in
other countries as we'll as in
the United States, according to re-
ports being received.
The suggestions for solutions run
all the way from the municipal bar
racks that are being considered in
Spain to the elaborate plans for
worNngmen's villages and the sys-
tenn of communal life that is meet
ing with favor in England. In a re-
cent report of the women's housing
subcommittee, ministry of con-
struction, this community system is
advocated and plans advanced for
both urban and suburban community
life.
1T is suggested that attractive
wooden cottages and dwellings of
the California bungalow type be
constructed on outlying tracts of
land, grouped together about
central meeting place and commun-
ity playground. Central heating ar
rangemcnts would be made for the
entire group of houses, and in large
schemes the electrical and heating
plants might be combined. utilizing
the waste heat from the generator
and saving cost in the upkeep by
making use OF one engineering staff.
Communal washing arrangements
are recommended, common wash
house being installed for the group
of houses and women washing in
rotation there. While community
cooking has been suggested the re-
port states that the idea has not met
with much favor with the English
housewives, most of whom prefer
TO do the cooking in their own
homes.
One interesting idea that is
worthy of comment is the plan for
communal holiday houses. 1t is
pointed Sut that working men and
women have little opportunity for
real rest and relaxation, and that it
would be of great benefit to es-
tablish houses in the community
where mothers could, without, ,anx-
icty, leave their young children
while they themselves take a holi-
day with their husbands and older
children. Large houses in seaside
or country places could be given
over to this work, and groups of
working people could Cd there for
holiday. This plan has already
been taken up by cooperative So
cieties and has been found tosbe all
Improvement on the usual beach
hotel or boarding house to which
the worker goes for summers
vacation.
Fairgrounds for young children
are very strongly recommended, as
are Fairgrounds for children of
more mature age. The need for So
cial centers is pointed out, and the
work Of the neighborhood house
type in America cited as an example
OF what can be done in this field.
