CIVIC CLUB FORMS
BROADER PROGRAM

The regular meeting of the Winnie
mucca Civic Club was held at Parish
hall this afternoon. Only regular
business matters were taken up, in
cluding committee reports of the card
party given on the fifth. How much
was taken in at the card party could
not be determinated at this time,
as some of the committee members
were absent, but judging from door
receipts 1t was well worthwhile
project. Plans for another entertain
ment are under consideration, but
nothing definite has been decided.
1t was suggested at this meeting
that committees be appointed to visit
local schools and council meetings,
and to look after new people coming
to Winnemucca who are not acquaint-
ed here. These suggestions will be
discussed later and acted upon at the
next regular meeting, which will be
held Tuesday. March 1.
Five new names were brought In
and these are Mrs. Lucy Bonnifield
Mrs. Emma Snider, Mrs. l.. E. Sewers,
Mrs. Ann Card and Mrs. Eggleston.
The library committee reported that
a box of books had been received and
are being stored at the Silver State
Chemical Company's rooms. Also the
names of several persons were read
who unsolicited had donated money
for the establishment of library.

MAKING EXCUSES

The Silver State dislikes making
excuses for being late and use of an
apparent quantity of plate matter
but considers it best that readers be
informed of causes of lateness and
sometimes lack of news. Ever since
the "old folks" went away we have
been full of trouble Had difficulty in
securing an "all-around' printer in
the first place, and after we got him
he couldn't handle the work. So one
publication afternoon few days ago
he took his leave. Now we're doing
all of the mechanical work connected
with publication of The Silver State,
except actual feeding of the press. and
we write most of the news. and any
Nevada publisher who has been hav-
ing trouble getting the sheet out Will
tell you that this represents some
stunt" as one-man proposition,
three times week. especially when
lob work is done on the off-publica-
tion day.
After our printer had left so un-
tremendously the other day we went
to it harder than ever and last issue
we thought we had the job by the
neck and the dinged old press belts
took a notion to commence breaking.
But what's the use going on telling
all these troubles. Well hog-tie the
job some day and you'll get your
paper on time and we'll try to make
it worth reading.
At that, we don't do so bad in giving
you the news you want to read, DO
we? It's all wool and a yard wide,
what there is of it.

BALL TO Be
LARGELY ATTENDED

The next social event to attract at
tention is the Eagles dance, to be
given in the Nixon a week from to-
night, Washington's birthday, Febru-
cry %. The committee in charge of
this affair announces decorations are
being looked after and that c. B.
Smith has been put In charge of ar
rangements for music. Smith is
leader of the Winnemucca City Band
and his orchestra has been heard at
dances heretofore and therefore re-
quires no comment on quality of
dance music assured.
Eagles are taking an active interest
in this affair generally and all Of the
large membership of this order are
engaged in the sale of tickets. AS
further evidence that the affair will be
largely attended 1t Is stated members
of the committee in charge have made
a trip to Golconda to distribute tickets
and expectations are that many will
be present from other points. The
dance is to be public and everyone
Is invited.

NOTED SPEAKER TO
Be HERE TONIGHT

When Robert A. LeRoux arrived In
Winnemucca this afternoon he was
met at the train by delegation from
his organization. the American Le-
gion, of which he Is national field
secretary, and these members of the
local organization will entertain him
until he speaks at the high school
tonight at a meeting under auspices
OF Vernon Robins post.
Mr.. LeRoux has received excellent
press notices in Nevada in cities
where he has spoken on his theme of
What the American Legion Is Doing
to Foster Americanism," and 1t Is this
subject he will take up at the meet
ing tonight. All are invited and no
admission is to be charged.
Particular notice is taken by Mr..
LeRoux in his talks concerning
proper care for ex-service men and
women injured in performance of
their duties. In the past there has
been a great deal of red tape to be
unwound before these could obtain at
tention and in some cases this made
the matter almost hopeless.
Local members of the Legion have
prepared an attractive program for
the meeting at the high school to-
night, including musical numbers. and
express hope that citizens will dem-
onstrate little OF that spirit which
impelled them to action while the
boys were fighting their battles dur
ing the war.

HE SMOKED WHILE SHE WORKED

Suit for divorce was brought In dis
trict court this morning by Mary V.
Ramsey against George L. Ramsey,
attorney for Mrs. Ramsey being 7. A.
Brandon. The couple welded here
last August and resided in the Ade-
laide district until the groom vacated.
General grounds for action are al
legged acts of extreme cruelty on the
part of the husband, one thing being
that he sat on the porch smoking
cigarettes while the Mrs. carried
water for the washing.

ANT|-GAMBL|NG BILL
IS BEING PREPARED

Preparation of an anti-Cambling
bill is under way as a result of con-
ferences held between Governor Boyle
and members OF both houses from the
extreme southern counties of the
state. according to the Gazette. The
bill. 1t is reported, will prohibit any
kind of a rake of" from any game
played with cards or dice and will be
SO drawn as to be air-tight in its
effect ON playing cards for money.
Governor Boyle recommended such
legislation in his message read to the
legislature when 1t assembled and the
measure which will result from con-
ference held between him and men,
bers of both houses will be the "ad-
ministration bill" on that particular
subject.
j. ~-e~~>>~~S>~>~>~~~~
Saturday afternoon at the home oi
Judge and Mrs. Bucker, when about
forty ladies gathered. About half the
guests enjoyed games of $780," while
the rest chatted and did" fancy work
Those who were not at the card tables
participated in guessing contest and
the result was a decision to pay more
attention to ads in the future. Many
were surprised to find that they were
unable to remember the names oi
firms whose ads they see In maga-
zines nearly every day. Handsome
prizes were given the winners and
losers. The wives OF the other two
supreme justices and the governors
wife assisted in serving dainty
lunch. Mrs. Boyle came a little late
as she had been looking after the
mother of a young boy who is now ir
Carson prison. but she waited on table
in the democratic way that makes hel
SO popular wherever she goes. While
Mrs. Boyle and Mrs. Saunders as
sisted Mrs. Ducker, Mrs. Coleman
who Is still on the convalescent list
gave special attention to strangers
Altogether 1t was a very satisfactory
party and a number Of those presen
voted it quite the incest entertainment
this season.
