A meeting of the board will be
held at an early date to select Off.
GERS and outline policies to govern
throughout the year. 1t Is hoped 10
have the creamery in operation by

eentrated toward this end.
G. r. Leidy left Sunday for Sac.
ramento, Calf, where he inspected
number of dairy herds and is hav'
ing tests made to be assured that
his purchases will include only de.
sirable dairy stock.
The first shipment will probably

the first offering to Newlands pro-
ject farmers who have become re-
converted TO the dairy farming idea

Chamber of Commerce
Wants Roads and Mail

The chamber of commerce meet
by emphatic declaration for better
roads, and a daily mail delivery
within this city under what is term
ed the village delivery system. 1t
will be remembered that efforts
were put forward by the local COM
mercial body some months ago
looking to the institution of the
village mail delivery plan within
Fallon but much time has elapsed
and the apparent unconcern of the
governments Washington postal
authorities leaves some doubt as to
official intention.
Ii is emphasized that Fallon's
postal receipts exceed those of many
communities in the country where
city delivery has been granted and
that Fallon is we'll within the
bounds of propriety in demanding
the abridged village delivery.
The postal authorities are to be
importuned once more in the hope
that the request will be acceded to.
The chamber of commerce men,
bership also espoused a project
wherein Fallon people and those in
the farming districts nearby are to
be asked To work as a unit on Arbor
Day In effecting needed road i'm
provements. The enterprising wives
of the community will be asked to
furnish a midday luncheon and the
date is to be made one featured by
en- njoyable and effective cooperative
labor.
1t Is argued that community work
can only be effectively performed
where the community spirit is
abroad and the chamber of COM
merce is doing its full share in the
promotion of the good fellowship
feeling.

Friday evening is a date held dis
tinctly in the introspect of Fallon' s
Juvenile population. Likewise par
ents and admirers of little tots gen.
orally will welcome the advent of

not be missed by Fallon people To
the infinite credit of residents of

THREE CARLOADS OF BEET
SEED HAVE ARRIVED HERE

Manager Fred Hinze, of the La
hontan Valley Sugar Company. has
announced tho arrival on last Fri
day of two more cars of beet seed
from Hamburg. Germany, complet-
ing the three-car shipment recently
ordered for Nevada farmers who
will raise beets for the 1921 factory
campaign here. The factory office
force has since been busy apportion-
ing the seed and much of it has al
ready been planted by Newlands
project farmers.
Sugar beet growing holds out
much promise for land owners in
this valley and under proper condi-
tions 1t must seem that this form OF
agricultural endeavor must lead here
In a short time. Road improve
ments and improved sugar markets

Boy Scouts Hike
Spend the Night Out

Last Friday evening the Boy
Scouts under the leadership of
Scoutmsters J. c. Dickinson and j.
]. Beatty went TO Horseshoe Bend
for a hike and camp over night, re-
turning the next afternoon. About
25 were in the party and all en-
joyed a good camp.
The boys took their eats and
, sleeps nlong End several of them
put up tents. while most of them
did their sleeping in the open. The
last statement should be modified
to some extent. as the sleeping was
very intermittent and sometimes
impossible altogether. The guards
seemed to think that their duty was
to keep all the camp awake. 1t is
hard telling just what their object
was in this but Ii is believed that
they thought that the safety of the
camp depended on the vigilance of
one can tell what can happen when
only one or two is keeping guard
Also being out so far from home
and in a strange country (four miles
from Fallon) 1t is more than likely
that the wild animals which were
very numerous might have sinister
designs on such a young and tender
party of boys. Anyhow the boys
took no chances.
But to take up the events in
chronological order, we started from
Fallon shortly after four o'clock.
Herbert Hoover very kindly volun-
teered his services with his car.
Mrs. Jim Dunford did the same and
with the three cars belonging to the
scoutmasters all the boys were TAX
en- in cars to the camp. Paul Osgood
came about an hour afterwards with
another jitney making a total of six
cars. After pitching camp the boys
tried out the fishing which was the
one disappointment of the occasion.
A few fish were caught but their
size and character were not suffici-
ent to take up much space in camp
or in this article. The boys cooked
their supper, played a few games
and then began the noble attempt
to secure the sleep which has been
mentioned before. To Bus Dunford
the prize must be given for the most
success owing to his great practice
in this line. J. c. Dickinson re-
NAMED longest In his blankets at
one time. Mr.. Beatty took the prize
for the soundest sleeper (emphasis
on the sound). Some of the boys
thought that 1t was the Kaiser at
his late occupation and beat a hur-
ried retreat The time dragged
slowly and boys were seen eating
their breakfast at all hours of the
morning from two o'clock on, most
of them finishing at $50. The boys
are a promising bunch of chefs. No
great cases of indigestion were re-
ported which was very remarkable
in view of the great quantity and
variety of food that was consumed.
A few fish were caught before the
noon meal. three to be exact. about
three inches long il laid in q row.
After dinner several of the boys
tried out the swimming, then a little
wrestling was exhibited and then
the boys chose sides for the game of
capture the flag" Then the cars
from town came and boys packed
their kits and loaded them into the
cars completing their first over
night hike.-(5coutmaster).

FIRES HAVE BEEN
FREQUENT LATELY

Fire alarms have been frequent
during late days. Like many other
things, fires are alleged to come 10
cycles of three. This being true we
are due for a new cycle for we have
three alarms In a row. First a real
blaze that practically destroyed the
DR.. G, M. Gardner garage on North
Maine street along with the Hup-
mobile car belonging to c. c. Ever
EFT, then incipient blazes due to de-
fective chimneys in the Woodward
home on East Williams avenue and
in the Herbert Hoover home on
West williams avenue. 1t Is earn
estly hoped by Fallon fremen that
they will not be called upon for
long distance runs until such time
ss they have rested from their
labors of the very recent past.

INSIDE OF THE CUP GOOD.
Winston ChurchiIIs Dramatic Story
Well Adapted to Screen.

/ Every reader of current literature
will recall the sensation caused by the
publication several years ago of Win
ston Churchill's powerful novel, 'The
Inside of the Cup" The story attack
ed the alleged hypocrisy of certain
clergymen and men of wealth identi-
fed with churches as vestrymen. The
philosophy of the hook was criticized
by churchmen in this country and in
England as an unwarranted attack
upon religion and the cloth.
The picture rights having been OBJ
tained by Cosmopolitan at great ex-
pense. the story was picturized by Al
bert Capellani, famous director and
the film version will be shown at the
Virginian theatre this week. The es-
sential features of the story, which is
one of great dramatic force, have been
retained while the anti-hypocrisy phil
osophy Of the author necessarily has
been subordinated to the general
theme
The story deals with the rector of a
fashionable church who turns upon his
wealthy Pensioners when he dis
covers them parading under mask of
hypocrisy and invites the common
people to attend his church. Eldon
Parr, a vestryman, INSCRIPTIONS and
tyrannical, alienates his son and
daughter and is finally killed by a
man whom he has ruined. There is a
pretty love romance between the rec
tor and PARIS daughter which ends
happily. The leading roles are played
by William P. Carleton and Edith
Hallor.
