FUNNY. ISN'T IT?

The Lehi farmer had to drive his trac-
tor pulling the threshing machine some
distance along on the concrete highway
before he came to the bitulithic type of
road where the tractor pulled large
chunks Of pavement IN leaving holes in
the highway but strange to say w. d.
Rishel of Salt Lake City who is demand
ing the arrest and prosecution of the Le-
hi farmer for damaging the 'bitulithic"
road says nothing about the tractor and
threshing machine doing any damage to
the concrete road over which it travelled
the same hot day it injured the soft top"
highway.
The editor of the Kaysvile Reflex very
appropriately stated the other day after
hearing about the damaged road:
isn't it queer that this condition was
not thought Of by the state road commits
sion when it specified bitulithic for road
construction? The commission and the
bituhthic boosters knew the characters
tics of the black goo-hard as flint and
slick as glass in winter and soft as stiff
mud in summer In selecting a material
fer our permanent roads the commission
will some day learn that they must spe-
city material which is suited to farm
traffic as well as JOY riding. If farm ma
chineiy is to be barred from the roads.

THE CALL FOR DISARMAMENT

At last concrete effort has been
made to bring to the world the POSSIBLE
ity of an abiding peace. President Hard
ing has issued formal invitation to the
powers to meet in Washington on Armis-
tice day, there to consider disarmament.
There are two schools of thought on
this subject, One maintains that wars
will come regardless of all attempts to
prevent and the nation unprepared will
be in danger of destruction. Theodore
Roosevelt was of this school and he adyo-

Christmas Wedding.

Two well known young people of the
Lewis community decided to make the
most of the Christmas season, and
called Rev. S. L. Ford of Dolores to
go out and make 1.-TWO hearts beat as
one" on Christmas eve.
The wedding ceremony was per-
formed at the home of the brides s
parents two miles north of Lewis. and
the young folks Immediately concerned
were Benjamin Martinez and Luicita
Lobato. A large number of relatives
and friends. and some of them from
quite a distance, were present to wit
ness the ceremony, and remained to
partake of the elegant dinner that
followed. Here's wishing them a
bright and prosperous New Year. and
happy voyage across the sea of life.

A Good HOme-T Talent Play.

The three-act-farce comedy given at
the opera house Friday evening by the
Parent-Teacher Association drew a
crowded house. The play was one of
the best ever put on by local talent,
and showed that much time had been
spent in study and practice by each
person taking part. Lleweilyn Brum-
ley, the young husband, was continually
getting in bad" and having all kinds
of trouble, while Harriet Pyle his
young wife had more than her share of
sorrows. Ronald MAR, the unsuccess-
full fixer, was on the job when it came
to trying to smooth out family troubles
but was not very successful in keeping
them smooth. Mike Spyers, the de-
fective detective. was busy officer.
but by little persuasion backed by
twenty dollar bill did what he could
to keep trouble at the minimum. F.
H. Rickhoff, the awfully shrinking
young lover of Zuleika Grin Plumlee)
tender Turkish maiden, could think
of nothing but her "peachy eyes" and
his twelve-dollar- week Job. Mr..
Clark, Turk from Turkey, and the
father of Zuleika, made frequent visits
to the Montgomery home, and was
very reckless with the dagger he
carried. Helen Drury, the young
sister of Mrs. Montgomery, was a
sweetheart of the unsuccessful fxer
and, like Mrs. Montgomery, had plenty
of troubles. Dora Clearinghouse,
mother of Mrs. Montgomery and
Virginia Bridgers, had the habit
of appearing on the scene when she
was the least wanted and it wasn't
as easy for the boys to explain con-
ditions to her as to the girls. Miss
Beaber, an Irish cook lady, was on the
job all the time. She was more mature
in years than Mrs. Montgomery and
knew more about the ways of men.
The show was continuous laugh from
beginning to end and this old world
needs more laughter that is provoked
by good clean amusement. MIR. Clark
was conductor and had entire charge
of the staging of this play. When Mr..
Clark puts on play everybody knows
it will be good for he will have nothing
to do with any other kind.

DR., A. L. Davis Suicides.

The people of this community were
greatly shocked last Sunday evening
when they learned of the death of DR..
Arthur l.. Davis. DIR. Davis left here
about two weeks ago for Denver and
other points in Colorado, where he had
relatives, for the benefit of his health
which had not been good since an
attack of influence nearly two years
ago. The message received by his
wife last Sunday evening at about $50
O'Clock that he was dead is all the
information received to date: He died
at the home of his brother-in-law,
near Golden, Colo.
DR.. Davis was splendid citizen and
has left a monument to his memory
that will live as long as it stands, in
the fine new high school building that
now adorns this city. 1t was largely
thru his efforts that the school was
built. He was always foremost in all
matters pertaining to the welfare of
the city and the uplift of the commu-
nifty.
His daughter, Florence. is teacher
in the Mancos schools. "Wednesday 8
