looking forward to May 1, as May

been used in shaping highly colored

baskets. Some contained pretty
paper flowers. some candy and nuts
or fruit, anything TO let the little
friend who received the basket know
that she was favorite in some

A glance at the books Of the nssSE

the tourist travelb will oyer-top the

One of the things that shows the

/ The attracting of tourist travel

1t is directly due, to the agitation Of

,TrTTuT- gnbuu2 Il

A .f9rty mile trip into the country,
Sunday gave us an idea of the con-
dition of things j in Phillips County.
Despite the cold, wet weather things
are progressing nicely. Fall wheat
and rye look good and with the
amount Of moisture in the gound,-
should make RAPID growth from now
on.YiAi few fields, were hurt some by
the high winds, but not many. Pas
lures are starting up remarkably. well
and ,many herds, of cattle are living
Off the grass witheutapy additional
feed.
The ground is being rapidly pre-.
pared for corn and is in fine shape.
Corn planting usually begins about
May stenth and with the amount of
moisture now in the ground, if We
can have some warm days, it would
take but ashort time for the corn to
germinate. Plenty of moisture and
warm weather causes quick germina-
tion and quick termination pro-
duees healthy shoot which starts
growing at once. .biPhHips County
hasibecome the greatest corn county
in northeastern Colorado, and con-
ditions point TO 1920 as banner
year. Let us boost for Phillips
County, for we have one of the best
counties in the whole United States.

! TELEPHONE. INJECTING !!
PR|[[lPS COUNTY

The Phillips. Eounsy9 Telephone
Company msts at the Court House
in Holyoke on last Saturday for the
purpose of talking over the general
co9ditions Of the company and other
wise, and to devise ways and means
by (which to pay the company's in
deGtedness and improve the service.
The report Of the secretary showed
:, the company to be in position
where prompt action was required
to prevent legal steps being taken
which would prove to be unfort,in-
ate and expensive.
The company has never owned an
adequate set of books. Neither have
any arrangements been made, for
paying. any one a sufficient salary
to keep them had it owned them. The
general business conditions have
changed materially in the past three
or Four years and the telephone sys-
tem has failed to change with them
The natural result is: that waste and
anteguated methods have obtained,
wh{re there should have been sys-
tem and efficiency.
The system has grown until in the
opinion of those who have given ser
ioub thought to the problem there
remais one of three solutions, either
to sell the holdings of the Phillips
County Telephone Co. out right; 2nd
to lease to some one competent and
financially responsible; or 3rd to
LEVY an assessment sufficient to pay
the present Indebtedness and pro-
ce8l with tn present organization.
TIM last mentioned method will, in
tha writer's opinion, require the EN-
pldment of competent secretary
and manager at a-salary commensu-
ru9 e with the services required OF

Aliens Enter America in Un- precedented Numbers and Problem of Housing Them is Most Serious.
NUMEROUS REASONS
 FOR COMING TO U. s.
Some Afraid of Explosions While Flowing Former

NEW YORK, Oct. II (by Associ- ated Press) Ellis Island, melting pot of the world. is boiling as never be- fore, with the greatest flood of immi- grants in history pouring into it. Mill lions more are clamOring at Europe's exits, anxious to come to America, and congress will be pressed to quick working force on the island to more than double it's present size, accord ing to Immigration Commissioner Frederick A. Wallis.
 Since early last summer, aliens have been entering Americas front door in unprecedented numbers. The problem of housing them until they can be admitted to the country has become painful to all parties con- grants detained for investigation had to sleep standing up, as the floors, benches and chairs already were filled with the backwash from the congested dormitories.
 The tide is certain to become greater with each passing month, Commissioner Wallis, felt assured. Steamship operators informed him their accommodations are booked to fD, he n1 ernment officials announced 267000 applications had been made for pass ports in Poland alone, mostly by Jews, while hundreds of thousands in other parts of Europe also were anxious to cross the seas to this coun- try

 Added to the prospective influx of immigrants from the countries Of the war allies. will be millions in from Germany who, as soon as the way is clear will seek passage to America, the immigration authorities have been informed by reliable and official sources.
 'The immigration in the future will be limited only by the capacity of the vessels" Commissioner Wallis said.
 In the meantime, while wondering how many years it will be before aliens quit coming across the sea at their present rate, Ellis Island work CTS are perplexed over their existing problems. The normal capacity of the island is reached when 2,OOO inn migrants are inspected daily. Yet, on recent day, 10,4OO aliens were fed there.
