HOSPITAL BENEFIT
Mnsical Entertainment VIII Be Given
on Thursday. May 18th.

A musical entertainment for the
benefit Of the hospital will be given
under the auspices Of the Woman's
Club Of Lamar on next Thursday even
ing, May 18th, at the high school au-
ditorium. Tickets will be so cents and
will be on sale beginning Friday. May
I3. at the Lamar Drug Store.
There is no more worthy institution
in the county or One doing greater
good than the hospital and the fact
that the institution is crowded prac-
tically all the time proves how great
ia the need. As ii is run without even
the hope Of profit and entirely with
out compensation for the directors, the
only why in which new and improved
equipment can be secured is through
public subscriptions or benefit enter
tainments, and the efforts Of the ladies
Of the Woman's Club to meet these
conditions should meet with the hearty
support not only of the citizens of La
mar but Of the whole county.

The Value of the Dairy Industry.

There is something going on in the
dairy world that should make every
consumer Of food sit up and take no.
tice. The dairy industry, thru itf
Dairy Council, is bringing home to the
public economy, health and efficiency
resulting from consumption Of dairy
products.
Butter" says President A. T. Nc
Clintock, Of the Colorado Dairy Coun-
ell, "is the cheapest food we have to-
day. Due to an unusually heavy early
season production, butter is selling At
the lowest price ia several years. But
If 1t was selling for double its pres
ent price, 1t would still be cheap, for
it is the most wholesome food that ma
ture has given to mankind. 1t pro-
duces energy, rebuilds tissue, strength
ems the bones and in addition, contains
in high degree the vital 'Vitamines,
recently discovered by scientists and
pronounced absolutely essential to
growth and development"
"The dairy industry is the greatest
friend Of mankind. It means two bill
lion dollars annually to the nation and
twenty-eight million dollars annually
to the state. Its product is the only
article Of diet whose sole function in
nature is to serve as a food, and it
is the one food for which there is no
substitute"
"A greatly increased consumption of
butter means that the consumer is
benefited in health, vitality, efficiency
and pocketbook and that the producer
upon whom the burden of falling prices
has fallen with great severity, is bene-
fitted by an assured and stabilized
market for his product"
The Colorado Dairy Council is act
lively cooperating with several cities in
Colorado, notably Colorado Springs
and Pueblo, where nutritional cam
paiRns, and clinics for a greater con-
sumption Of dairy products are being
conducted with great success.

KILLING NEAR BRISTOL
J. E. Harrison Killed Last Saturday
on Road West of Bristol.

Word was sent to Sheriff Simpson
last Saturday afternoon that Earl
Walker had shot and fatally wounded
]. E. Harrison on the road running
past Walkers farm west of Bristol
and the sheriff left at once for that
point. However, Mr.. Walker had al
ready left for Lamar to give himself
up and rs they took different roads
they missed each other. Walker ar
rived here and gave himself up to
Judge Kirkpatrick. He was put in jail
and remained until taken to Bristol on
Monday for the coroner's inquest.
Harrison had in the meanwhile been
taken to Bristol but lived only short
time.
DR.. Likes, county coroner, impaneli-
ed jury at Bristol on Monday after
noon to inquire into the facts OF the
shooting. Deputy District Attorney
Allyn Cole represented the state and
Hon. w. B. Gordon the defendant. The
mass Of the testimony was practically
va 80 hNai Nouiu bt C&Ptthtu
in case of that kind and left no room
for doubt as to the main facts. There
were six eye witnesses including mem
bers Of the Harrison family. 1t was
shown that bad blood had existed for
some time due to trouble between
Walker, who was cab driver for the
Bristol consolidated school, and the
Harrison boy. Walker had resigned
to avoid trouble and the members of
the school board had visited the Har-
rison family to try to prevent a con-
tinuance Of the trouble that existed,
but on Saturday Harrison with his
family was out driving in the auto
when they passed the place where
Walker was repairing his fence. Har-
rison Immediately stopped and attack
ed Walker with his fists. The latter
was a much smaller man and picked
up the end-gate Of his wagon to de-
fend himself. Harrison then rushed
to his wagon and secured a gun and
took two shots at Walker. The lat
ter had picked up his own rifle which
was lying beside his wagon and was
backing away when the second shot
was fired. He returned the fire and
the bullet brought Harrison down. AZ
ter listening to the evidence the jury
brought in its report exhonorating
Walker and Attorney Cole let the
matter drop as there was no evidence
to base q charge on.

Briskey of Lamar also took second
place in the typewriting contest.
This showing was about the fines.
ever made by a team in the valley
and the added fact that Lamar sent
more visitors than any other city in
the valley to the meet should create
interest enough here to raise funds to
send at least part Of the team to the
state meet at Boulder. The students
deserve the outing for the showing
made and it will be of great benefit to
them to go.

BIG CIRCUS COMING

Palmer Bros. Worlds Greatest, three
ring, Wild Animal Circus will exhibit
in Lamar. on Wednesday, May 18th.
It is enough to justify anyone TAX
ing an interest in this event, for the
show contains nothing but the highest
class acts, one act alone, that Of the
full grown jungle bred. African lions,
would more than repay you for Wis
it to this mammouth enterprise. Then
the bears, in their fun provoking and
roller skating acts is another that
should not be missed. 1t is in keep
ing with their original policy. The
owners have built in the past few
years an enviable reputation and while
it is not the largest, It has gained the
right and justly so, to be called the
Worlds Greatest Wild Animal Circus.
The show travels in its own trains
and carries hundreds of people and
stock. Every specie of the wild beast
will be exhibited in the great parade
on the streets, so don't fail to see this
wonderful pageant.
This will be the greatest tented or
ganization travelling this part Of the

The killing took place at Boise City
last fall but the defense took a change
of venue to Guymon. The jury was
out several days and no word has
been received here yet whether it fin
ally reached verdict or was dismiss
ed. The Tanners were relatives Of the

Vetoed Normal Bills.

Governor Shoup very properly veto
ed three of the four normal school
appropriations bills, those at Lamar,
La Junta and Trinidad. and it would
have been better had he vetoed the
Alamosa bill also. The latter, though.
had little more merit as the people
there wanted it bad enough to donate
a site and the use Of their high school
and other help in establishing the
school. The bills only carried s2500
appropriation each instead of S25, 900
as claimed by the Sparks and meant
simply that some real estate man
would get to sell site for build
ing that probably would never be built
and thus boom his surrounding lots.
1t would be far better for the state
to spend that $500 in improving the
standing of the present state teachers
college.
