Another Pool
Room Raided

Sheriff John 7. Hunt and deputies,
again accompanied by Prosecuting At
torney w. E. Golfer, made another
raid on pool room Saturday night
This time the roundup was IN Des-
loge, and the raided pool room be-
longed to Frank Brinsie, who, though
a foreigner, is large property owner
there.
A still and several samples of its
product, in different stages Of fer
mentation, was uncovered by the raid
ers and were brought in as evidence.
a slot machine was also part OF the
booty. Brinsie gave bond for his ap-
pearance for trial. which will perhaps
be at the approaching term Of circuit
court.
The Times recently gave notice that
all law violators would save them
selves much trouble and unrest by
either abandoning their nefarious bus
mess. or getting out Of st. Francois
county. as Sheriff Hunts edict has
gone out that he is going after all OF
them-which means that he is very
apt to get them.

Mrs. Nellie Haskins, Of Richmond,
Va, who was recently summoned here
on account of the serious illness of
her mother, Mrs. E. L. Jerrold, was
gratifed to find the dear one some
what improved on her arrival.
The semi-annual, statement of the
receints and expenditures of Farming
ton from July LIST, 1920, to Jan. 1st,
1921, appears in this issue Of The
Times, and viii be interesting reading
to many. The statement indicates
splendid management Of the city's
financial affairs.
II Notwithstanding an unusually mild
winter, thus far, some roads through
the county have been greatly damaged
and put in very bad condition. 1T does
rot necessarily require a hard winter
fo do serious damage to roads. A
few freezes and thaws will do such
work quite efficiently.

.Patronize the
Electric Road

1t is the impression of The Times
that the Pennington Chamber Of Com
merce is always pleased to have sug-
gestions as to things that should be
done in this community in order tc
improve and make this a better and
more desirable place in which to live
Therefore this paper has another sug-
gestion, which 1t thinks most inpor-
tant, which it is going to give out, In
the hope that such publicity will re-
suit advantageously to our people.
It is this: The electric road, which
is Farmington's only railway connec-
ton with the outside world, must have
the support of Farmington's business
interests, to q greater extent than it
has for some time past been getting
such support, in order to insure the
continued operation Of such railway.
II that road is an asset to this city,
then it is certainly up to the business
men of this city to support such road.
It is ridiculous to think that this
electric road will continue to be OPP
Grated for the purpose of accommodate
ing the passenger traffic from this
city to railroad connections, either at
Flat River or DeLassus, and to haul
in an occasional car of coal from De-
Lassus. That is an error, which many
OF our business men have apparently
been making for some time past.
A passenger auto bus is now max
ing regular trips between Pennington
and Flat River, which cuts down the
passenger traffic just that much that
the electric road would otherwise get.
But that is a very small item COM
pared to the freight business out Of
and into Pennington that has been di-
verted from that road by auto trucks,
which run day and night, transport
ing large quantities of freight that
should go to the electric road, If
Pennington feels that such electric
line is a benefit to her.
This heavy transfer of freight by
auto truck is made possible by reason
of the rock roads from this city in ev-
cry direction, and for which those
who are deriving the greatest benefit
from them are no more responsible
than are many other citizens who
derive but little or no benefit from
| stcis Reinforcement. IT Is up to those
citizens who have made, and are still
making their money, in this eommuni-
ty, to add their support to co-operat-
ing with the electric road, if that en-
terprise is to be permitted to continue
to operate.
The Times will have something
more on this important matter in the
future. In the meantime, we sug-
gest that action on this subject is right
in line with the work of the Chamber
of Commerce, and that organization
will indicate its desire to do real work
for this community by the promptnesE
and energy with which it enters into
the work of securing cooperation
among the business interests of Farm
ington in behalf of the electric road.
THIS is A LIVE AND BURNING

The proposition of securing a ST.
500 auto fire truck for this city was
also referred to the Chamber, as to
how much that organization would
guarantee in payment for such equip
ment. These important matters will

held next Monday night, when every
good and loyal citizen should be pres
