WIRELESS AT THE COLLEGE
SENDING OUT MESSAGES

The wireless sending apparatus at
the college has been used considerably
during the last week, and according TO
responses and postal Acknowledgements
received has been heard successful in
as many as ten states, from California,
to Iowa.
Two receiving sets were made up
recently at the college laboratory and
forwarded to Monte Vista. where they
are working very nicely and catching
the radio signals and messages from
many states.
While at the teachers convention
last week, DIR. Wightman went over to
Delta and made a talk on wireless be-
fore the Round Table club of that city.
He also tested out station 9B.V.H. at
Delta. 1t is curious that Delta and
Gunnison cannot talk over Black Mesa,
but each can hear other stations
thousands of miles away.

o. Saturday night, Nevsnher -
nunbsr q IL Lycsun Cs1r1e, .
thres-ect play. 'Ths Bubb's." vm -
This eppseling play Of dialset, hsn-
Or. .. ~ pss.es, y Edwssd :Leeaa
IN . successfnl co1sdy. In Il Ieuig
Mann scored o. ef his grsn1ose
triumphs.
To outline the plot Of ths ply
would be to rob the uniniated II d
pleasure that 10 70 b experienced h
its various twists Of action. Just
imagine. however, . delicatessen stOro
conducted by loveable old man, Gus
tsve Mueller. with the able assistanco
OF his better half and their charming
Rose. Imagine our hero, Q
young They're al
ways "dashin" WHO II in love with
Rosie, but who ut the same time u
personal non grzta with the old folks.
Now, enter the william with his glib
tongue and oily ways, to fleece the
father and mother out Of their earn
ings. 1t is an old plot. but it does not
"thicken" in the same old way. You
will be surprised and amused.
The dry humor of the old folks, as
contrasted with the up-to-the-m minute
ideas of the young folks, gives this
splendid cast a wonderful opportunity
to convulse the audience with laughter.
And the old folks are not SO slow at
that.
"The Bubble" carries a great story,
superbly acted by an able company.

Dustin 'EmO or
Clever Production

The American Legion play, sDustin'
EN- On. given BY fhs loenl eeEanaxn-
tion Friday night and Saturday aftnr-
noon, was one II tie moa sueeeaaful
and theroly snjeyahls plays given b.
fore . Gunnison audience IN some tine.
The Unique Theatre vas crowded both
performances, and the local talent tax
ing part deserve great credit for the
Efforts and time spent TO make The
play the success il was.
Ths scene was laid 1t the Grand
Hotel at Nice. C. J. 8. Bowling, a
the Aaitre Dc hotel, who had learned
70 put up with these Americans" and
Theo. kreuger, Is the negro porter,
were exceedingly funny.
Carlton Silis, as the twin brother Of
the singer and entertainer, Louise
Trimble, Of the Overseas Theatre, was
dressed to take her part in the enter
tainment, and gave a highly amusing
exhibition Of how . girl acts. The
Tpaft taken by his Buddy" and part
ner in all troubles, was taken by z.
I. Brown, MS Henry Jones, and consid-
erablc meriment was created when
the said Henry swiped the clothes Of
the interpreter, NJ. Dubois, played by
Fred Rost, nd left him ''talxig a bath" !"
as Henry expressed it. NJ. Gottie, the
mayor Of CaNeFaitRien, was played
by Bernard Geiser, who displayed his
ability as an actor.
One of the decidedly humorous
parts Of the play was taken by F. Geo.
Damson, rs the Jew, Isaac Longgreen,
president of the Catchem and Killem
Cootie Cure Company. Mr.. Damson
carried out his part with n finish that
would be hard to excell. From his
first appearance to the time when he
discovered he had been cheated out of
his precious money, he was screaming
ly funny.
The Beau Brummel role was taken
by d. b. Herrick as Lieutenant Bull"
His desperate attempt to win the
81 900 bet by making the girl kiss him
before midnight, was highly exciting
and not little heart breaking, especi-
ally when he found he had been court
ing the girls brother.
The lovers-there are always
some-were played by Wilma Doig, as
Louise Trimble, and o. S. Causey, as
Capt. Washington Smith. and added
just the right touch q the entire pic
ture. Altogether, the play, from start
60 finish was enjoyable and a de-
cided treat to Gunnison folks. Home

DIR. RICKETTS, SAYS
EIGHTEEN-CENT COPPER

Copper ought to be bringing 10
cents pound today. look for cop
per to rise from its present level, II
cents a pound, but don't guess how
soon. There are practically no sur
plus copper stocks In the country. I
know that copper ought to be worth
four cents n pound more than we are
getting for it." Such was the recent
forecast of DR.. l.. d. Ricketts,, con-
suiting engineer for the Inspiration
Consolidated, and an international
authority on copper.
Whatever the order, the West will
profit by every bit Of mining revival
that takes place, and every Westerner
should favor movements looking to
such revival.

ABOUT EARLY DAYS,
IN DICKINSON COUNTY

BY G. Clifford Cress

"a former resident OF this county
G. Clifford Cress is now located In
Lewiston, Montana. He says a re-
cent letetr In the Reflector about
early days inspired him to recall
these incidents OF 1S76-18S0 which
throw new light on early days
here.)
was born In Cincinnati, Ohio,
Aug. 20, 1873. My father, Joseph
p. Cress, leaving mother in the East,
settled In September of the same
year on section Of Buckeye town
ship in Dickinson county. The next
spring in April, 1874, my mother
Joined father bringing me along.
Father had bought from some quit
ters two homestead shacks and had
converted them into a twO-ro0m
house. Under this he had dug deep
cellar which was used as a refuge
from threatening cyclones. This
little house with additions still
stands on the crossroads nine miles
due north of Abilene on the section
line that runs out on the westside
Of the city cemetery. l spent twen-
ty-twO years of my life there. 1t
will be of interest to the old timers,
their children and successors, for me
to give my earliest memories Of nine
sections Of virgin prairie which COM
posed my world before was old
enough to go to school. These nine
sections are those which lie around
section 5. The settlers whom / shall
recall and the events recorded belong
to the years 1S76-1SS0.
During this period our home was
the only one ON section 8. Our farm
was mile long east and west and
80 rods wide. South Of us the next
quarter of the same shape belonged
to my grandfather, Honorable A. B.
Crary. This quarter was all broken
and sowed to wheat every year. A
vivid memory goes back to July B,
1915, when my uncle, Albert Gala
tine died at our home while a head
