GIVE
CONSIDERATION TO
WINSLOW'S DEMAND

The matter of the Winslow- -Moqui
road was before the board of super
vi5oiS again the first of the week,
with delegation OF WinslOw people
at the bat. The city council became
interested some time ago resulting
IN their sending City Engineer p. r.
Jones out to look over the location
of the proposed road. Mr.. Jones
was accompanied by f. T. LaPrade,
a member of the city council and
one of the largest property holders
in the city. Mr.. LaPrade had at
tended previous meeting with the
board when the delegation received
scant courtesy at the hands of the
majority Of the county's Legislative
body AT that time Mr. LaPrade had
not personally inspected the propos-
ed location. At the meeting this
week he was informed by personal
contact with the conditions and var
ious reports concede that he very
positively told the board that unless
they would be reasonable. that he
would at once on behalf of the Win
slow people, file an Injunction and
commence proceedings to compel the
demands of Winslow and her people
at the meeting this week the tran
scribed stenographic reports of the
previous meeting were read and
lurther speech making was indulged
in but the oratorical pyGotechnict
did not phase the Winslow delega-
ION who had been fooled with long
enough by the boards majority
At the previous meeting ye humble
editor had been lambasted and blam-
Cd for pulling the wool over the eyes
of the Winslow' citizens. but this
meeting proved that the wool-pulling
game was being practfced by the
board instead, but it failed to blind
the lWinslow people and they made
A determined stand for their rights
and demanded consideration else the
arbitrary action of the board would
be taken into court for a ruling as
to whether or not the citizens of
Winslow had any rights lin the coun-
ty other than to pay her proportion,
and perhaps more, of the taxes lev
led by the board.
AS the matter now stands, a new
board of road viewers are to be ap-
pointed to go over the proposed To-
cation. These appointees of the sup
erviG<rs should be taken from the
citizenship of Winslow as they are
parties most interested. 1t was sug-
gested, however, that non-interested
parties from elsewhere in the coun-
ty be chosen to perform this duty
in company with the county engineer
who is a member of the viewers
board by statute. 1t appears queer
that Winslow people have never been
asked to locate the roadA for any
other part of the county. Maybe we
are not competent

TRUTH VS. EL0QUENCE

Being an orator assists one great
ly in this life when one is confront
ed with the necessity of defending
himself. Some are born orators, 9TH
ers are made. Tertullus was indeed
an orator but he used fiattery in pre-
senting the Jews case before Felix,
the governor of the Roman province
of Judea, but Paul was able to OBJ
tain liberty of Christian communion
by his simple statements of the truth
of his actions. Come to the Meth
odist church '9:45 a. m. Sunday and
learn and study Paul's life with us.

SECOND NUMBER OF LYCEUM'
COURSE NOV. 19

The Cameron Male Quartette, the
second number of the Lyceum
Course, will appear at the Washing
ing Of November 49, This will be
one of the most popular numbers of
the entire course.
Among the various selections Of
fered will be found masterpieces;
rousing camp meeting and jubilation
melodies of the South; catchy colleg
choruses and old home favorites;
rollicking character songs with a
hearty laugh in every line: short
readings of new stories and snappy
dialogs; and enough popular instu-
mental numbers to give variety.
Each and every one of these num-
bers is surcharged with the engag-
ing personalities of the musiians and
every moment brings a new facet of
interest, inspiration and pleasure.
The following is a newspaper COM
ment FROM one of the towns where
they have recently appeared:
"The Cameron Ouartette appeared
in Alamosa at the Isis Theater on
the 18th and Judging from the ap-
plause from the audience and the re-
marks made after the entertainment
the Camerons fulfilled all expecta-
tions and gave a very satisfactory
and entertaining program"
The board for reserved seats will
be at the Central News Stand be-
ginning Monday, November IA. There
was quite Jam and rush at the
door when the first number was CIV
en- because many had not secured
reserved seats beforehand It will
avoid confusion if this is attended to
at the Central New Stand.
Season tickets for the remaining
four numbers may be had for $100.
Single admission for this number is
fifty cents.
