Do We Want $4,000
Aid For Road Building?

Bear Lake county has an opportunity of procuring
approximately $4,000 from the for road construc
ton purposes and equal amount from the federal gov
ernment it is sad by furnishing aggregating $25
600. Information in the hands of County Auditor 81
las L. Wright is to the effect that state and federal aid
will be available for this county provided the state money
is matched by the county.
The most important feature to consider right now is
whether we want this money, and if we are willing to
spend twenty-five cents and get dollar value for each
25c expended That is what the state and federal aid
Is said to amount to- OF course to get the full benefit
OF state and federal aid the county $25OO0
The report is that action be taken within the
coming two weeks in ordr to this aid although
It VIII not be necessary to raise the money for some time
The state must know what we want to do and no
time should be lost in considering the proposition
II the county would hold bond election and author
ize bond issue in sufficient to enable the commits
soners to take advantage of such opportunities it would
be OF much benefit to the county All the bonds voted
at an election would not necessarily have to be sold in
one year. but bonds could be held in reserve to meet lust
sudh propositions the confronting the officials at
present.
Something should be done in Bear Lake county at
once looking to the construction of permanent roads

Week S Events In Social Realm
ANTICIPATION
WAS AT LAST REALIZED
miss Virginia Brough, Editor)

Halloween forecast all during the
month of October by witches, black
cats and jack-o'-lanterns in decora-
tive scheme for all sorts of enter
tainments, finally took its place on
the calendar with the passing OF the
month to which it has given fame
The celebration of the holiday,
dedicated originally to a religious
feast day in commemoration of the
saints of the early church, but re-
GENTLY to social frolics. perhaps never
began quite so early or has ever been
extensive as 1t has this year.
A mild and fruitful fall has fur
nished riches In the way of decora-
ttons associated with the day, such
as golden pumpkins, autumn flow
ers and leaves. which lend them
selves to the colors associated along
with cornstalks just turned to the
proper tint.
From the number of Halloween
entertainments already given 1t
would seem as though social resourc>
les had been exhausted in anticipa,
tion of the holiday, but Monday
brought the celebration to its prop
er climax in ghostly and wjerd d.
versions.
Halloween devices were in evil
dence at dancing party given Tues
day evening by the young ladies or
Montpelier at the Gem Hall. Jack
o'-lanterns, witches, black cats,
cornstalks and other weird sugges.
tions in commemoration OF the ap-
proach OF the spooky holiday we're

CLUB BUSINESS IS
GIVEN ATTENTION

A regular meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce, the first to be held for
a number of months on account of the
summer season, was held in the club
rooms Tuesday evening with busi-
ness quorum present.
A committee composed of Mrs.
Henry B. Whitman and Mrs. Edwin
L. McClave representing the War
Mothers organization and Alma J.
Winters and Robert G. Harding, re-
presenting the American Legion met
relative to discussing the probabili-
ty of a conflict between the cty's
paving celebration and the obser-
vance of Armistice day by the Amer
lea Legion. Tt was the opinion of
the committees that a city demon
stration might interiors with the
success of the Legion's activity on
that holiday, and asked for a recon
sideration of the date. The matter
was referred to the various commit
tees for solution.
In order that the club rooms may
be made more inviting, it was decid-
ed to name house committee of two
members to look after the building
with view of making 1t more invit-
ing to the members. Members of
the chamber may procure a key to
the building by calling on Alan
Richards at the Bank of Montpelier
and paying 35c for same.
DIR. George F. Ashley called at
tention to the fact that it has been
announced that Bear Lake county
can procure a road fund from state
and federal sources Of $4,000 by
simply furnishing $25,OOO. It was
the opinion of the club, after some
discussion that the county commits
sioners should be encouraged to for
mulate some plans by which state
funds can be matched by the county,
and therefore procure federal aid,
which would enable Bear Lake coun-
ty to get one dollars value out OF
every 25 cents expended up to a sum
Of approximately $25, 900.
The matter of club interest was
discussed before adjournment; and 1t
was the opinion of those present that
something should be done to arouse
interest in the Chamber of Com
merce by its members.

World sentiment everywhere ap-
plauds the aims and objects of this
great international conference, and
humanity and civilization await
with solemn interest and profound
hope that results OF its dellberation

fitting and requisite that the people
should assemble in their places of
Worship and breathe out their de-
sires and offer up their suppllca-
tions In behalf OF the important gath
ering, its members. It's labors, and
It's purposes. At the recent general

animously adopted by tho mighty
congregation To which II was pre-
sented; and In accordance with its
terms. the Sunday Immediately pre-
ceding Armistice Day--that IL sun
day. November g. was selected for

olution. II is hoped and requested

bility; and for the Information OF all
concerned. the text OF the resolution
as read by President Grant, and in
dorsed by the body or the Church in

ments and questions concerning

jeetiye.
To the end that II may do so,
