VARIETY FEATURES
 MINSTREL BY ELKS

At each rehearsal for the Elks' mlnstrels some new feature is added to the big program and the show will have more novelties in the way of en- tertainment than any event of like nature in the history of Conway. Last nights rehearsal was a dandy-every one went through their parts with snap and dash that denotes good stage management and every one is enthu- siastic over the catchy songs and the marching and dance numbers that have been introduced
 Among the many features will be a special act by quartette composed of Homer Hess, Keith Holloway, Ed Leverett and Clint Draper. This act is staged with special scenery and costumes and will introduce dancing, songs, both old and new and instru- mental numbers. Another act which promises to be big hit. is the sing ing and dancing at which will be led by Mrs. Wm. Van Valkenburg. She will be assisted by eight young men who will present some fast dancing to the song accompaniment. Another star performer, Jeff Farris, was added to the cast last night and the way he will sing ''That Wonderful Kid from Madrid" will make you think Caruso is with the Elks on this occasion.
 Tickets for this event are now in the hands of all the Elks and they re port big demand as it is evident no one not entirely crippled, expects to miss this show

Interesting Experience Of Texas Lady Who Declares That More

Navasota, Texas.-Mrs. w. M. Peden,
ofthis place, relates the following interest
ing account Of how she recovered her
strength, having realized that she was
actually losing her health:
Health is the greatest thing in the
world, and when you feel that gradually
slipping away from you, you certainly sit
up and take notice. That Is what ! did
some time ago when I found myself in a
very nervous, rundown condition of
health. was so tired and felt so lifeless

ieel so weak I would have to set it down
before l felt like could lift it 10 the shelf.
IN this condition, of course, to do even
my housework was a task almost i'm
possible to accomplish.

When | asked him now he did IL,

There r two great advantages In

Second, the subconsclous mind

You run an unneseccary risk by

GOOD BUSINESS POLICY

~ ECISION Of the county commissioners to concentrate county road
building expenditures ON a single main highway project, in CO.
operation with state and federal highway authorities, is sound
business policy. Far too much of the public money, paid by taxpayers
as road taxes, has been frittered away in this county in past years in
piece work, patch work and political pull road building and repairing.
Until the North Fourth street project was put under way we had prac-
tically nothing to show for many thousands of dollars OF road funds
expended. The new policy is the only sound business policy and il
is to be hoped that ii may be adhered to.
In order to meet state and federal appropriations for the Isleta
paved road it will be necessary for the county commissioners to so
shape their budget as to eliminate all but absolutely necessary ex-
penditures. improvements proposed for county buildings will have
to be postponed. So win other extraordinary county expenditures.
But these eliminations win be worth while IL the money SO saved
goes into building a permanent highway. That is what is proposed
for the road from the Bareas bridge toward Isleta. The project pro-
posed will cost around 100000 and will provide a concrete road for
about seven miles south IRON Barelas.
The precinct Of Barelas and the city government should cooperate
with the county commissioners by joining forces. Barelas should
come into the city limits, so chat pavement may be built to connect
North Fourth street with the paving project to the south.
incidentally Barelas is served by the city with fire protection,
some sewerage service, a measure Of police protection and some school
facilities, without sharing in the taxes that pay for the same. This
Is not a fair deal for Albuquerque taxpayers who foot the bills
Sooner or later we are coming to the project Of The city and coun.
~ Of Albuquerque. In the meantime it is worth noting that n major
portion Of real estate in Bareias precinct is owned by residents of
Albuquerque.

melee lent color to the already I'm.
favorable Impression Of him in the
public mind.
when In the midst Of the fight and
a losing fight, Garfield was shot. the
American people revolted at the
thought that Arthur and the "Stal.
warts" should profit by the assasslna.
tlon. The public mind revolted also
at the prospect OF a political boss en-.
throned In the White House. with his
motley following about him.
Tint popular picture OF Arthur, as
a city politician out OF the pages of
Puck. was distorted and untrue. simply
because the background was omitted
from II. The real, the native character
OF the man had been shaped In sur
roundlngs very different from those In
which the country found him when he
first came under It's attention. Born
In Vermont to a Baptist minister, n
mar OF education and high principles,
who had come over from ireland and
who soon afterward settled In New
York state, Arthur had grown up in
village ~parsonages, where the living
was plain and the thinking high.
When the great test came and he
stood silently for three months In the
shndow Of the high Office, Arthur found
himself. and he left petty politics and
factions behind him as he entered the
White House. The public was lncred.
ulous at first. but was convinced at
last that he honestly meant to be pres.
ident OF all the people.
Some OF his old associates In ma.
chine politics were as ~astOnlshed at
