UNEMPLOYMENT SITUATION
REPORTED IMPROVING

The following statement has just
been issued by the Industrial En-
ployment Survey of the U. S. De
pertinent of Labor.
Throughout the state of Colorado
industrial, mining and agricultural
sections show an increase in EN-
ployment of approximately 25 per
cent as compared with March, with
exception of idleness due to coal
suspension. There will be further
large increases in employment dur
ing May Increases will be felt in
building construction, public I'M
provements and sugar beet field ac-
tivities Sugar beet activities alone
which have already begun will re-
quire the employment OF an es-
timated number of 10000 adults
throughout the sugar districts.
Most of this labor has been idle
or has been working only small
part of the time during the past
four months. This work will re-
duce unemployment in the state to
minimum. Indications point to
pickup in metal mining during
May. Steel Industries and railroad
shops continue to show gradual
gain. State highway work, includ-
ing bridge construction will neces-
state additional employment of
approximately 900 men during May"
Facts and figures In this regard
were secured and compiled under
the supervision OF Mr.. Ounce Rec
ord, irector of the Mountain District
who has headquarters in Denver
and who is keeping in close touch
with the Industrial and agricultural
situation in Colorado and others of
the western states.

SALE OF SCHOOL BONDS

Representatives of various bond
houses met with the school board
Tuesday evening. There were c1ev
en- competitive bidders and the bid
ding was eager and sharp. The
bonds for $4,000 were finally let
to the International Trust Co. OF
Denver and sold at par plus Sob,
80. 5 percent bonds. This is the
highest price paid for bonds in the
whole state of Colorado since 1916
These bonds are to be sold for the
purpose of building a twelve room
grade school, subject to the vote OF
the taxpayers at the election to
be held on June 8.
BY this time every resident OF
Holly must be aware of the extreme
need of new grade building. The
unhygienic and crowded condition
of the old building makes this i'm
provemcnt imperative. 70 place
repairs in the old building and add
an addition to it or rent rooms
in town are the only alternatives
and would be only temporary, un,
satisfactory and uneconomical. 1t
is the candid opinion of all who
have made careful Investigation
that the only wise thing to do is to
build, and tbe least expenditure
that will meet the requirements is
$4,000 and 12-room building Even
this may prove inadequate in n
few years but future problems may
well be delayed. We are planning
only for the immediate future. Let
everyone in doubt make a thought
ful investigation before election
day that he may vote intelligently.

My Mother" The music for the
song vase Omposed, however, some
years ago by mother. Miss Alice
Kindall gave recitation, as also
did Elizabeth WhitcOmb A song
was sung by three childrenn. Rev.
G. Lewis preached an excellent
sermon on the mothers of the Bible
and the power of motherhood in
the world today. A good sized con.
gregation was present at both sun
day school and church. In the Sun,
day school Jesse Wright was elect
ed librarian, Alice Kindall treasur-
or. andTrophe Belt secretary. Miss
Eva Allen who is soon to leave the
city resigned from the secretaryship

BUILDING NEW STATES

There are movements to build
three new western states one ont
of eastern Washington. northern
Idaho and western Montana; one
out of northwestern Colorado,
southwestern Wyoming and north.
eastern Utah; and one out of south.
western Oregon and northwestern
California.
These three states are. naturally
developed about groups of indus
tries and natural geographical con
figurations, with similarity of prod.
ucts, climate and pOpulation-homo-
geneOus commemorative with wa
-terWays, varied resources and terri.
tory easily accessible.
The present generation will see
these three new republics carved
out of virgin territories having
great natural wealth, established
industries, well-developcd farming
and orcharding, payrolls. and people
enough to establish government and
property enough to run it.
These states will be named Lin,
coin, Jefferson and Columbus, They
will be three brilliant stars added
to the American flag.

THE pow-wow

The pOw-wow of the senior class
came off as scheduled last Thurs
day evening before an admiring au-
dience. The senior class of fourteen,
save one who was necessarily alb
snt, were seated in semi-circle on
the platform. There are eight boys
and six girls in tn class this year,
showing up pretty well for the
boys of Holly.
The program opened with a class
yell led by Jesse Wright, and the
class song. Edgar Cantwell then
came on with the Glass Wantads, a
series of funny take0ffs' on the
members of the class, faculty and
undergraduates. They were jokes
on the student body and faculty
to be enjoyed thoroughly by those
well acquainted with them and with
school life A series of examination
questions in the same vein was CIV
en- by Marjorie Hutchins, These
wer askd by her and answered by
various members of the class in a
way ALWAYS to provoke merriment
in the auditors.
A splendid Glass Poem was CIV
en- by Grace Moser, president of
the class. a lady who is held in
great honor by them.
MI, rI,.., IL ;pfnry ,,-os ,,rn
santed bv Colin Wilson and was a
resume Of the achievements of the
class for the past year. Famous
Sayings of tn class, supposedly re-
corded by George Robson, were
read by him.
A unique feature was the Glass
Prophecy. AS Grace MOser inter
viewed the Prophet, Gail Harris,
she read the fate of each graduate
in handkerchiefs belonging to the
various mmbers. These prophecies
cave us a vision of the class in the
days to come. some of the members
appearing in rather comical situa-
tions. The last will and testament
OF the class was by Reginald Har-
ris and it disposed of the effects
Of the departing class in an appro-
priete manner.
Exceeding a fiilal.class song, Jesse
Wright gave the ambitions of the
class as he conceived them. and
seemed often to make shrewd
guess, If one could Judge by the
applause of the audience. The
whole program was quite generally
enjoyed and the class is to be con
graduated on Il very original and
witty program

CHRISTIAN TABERNACLE

The meetings at the Christian Ia
bernacle continue with increasing
interest. On Saturday evening last
Rev. Mr.. Newly spoke on The Bap
tism of the Holy Spirit He con
tended that there are three bap'
tisms the baptism of the Holy
Spirit, bestowed only on the apos
ties. the baptism. of water into re.
pentance for every convert now:
and the baptism of fire for the
wicked In the day of Judgment.
He said that the baptism of the
Spirit was for the apostles only
and that there wore but two record
ed Instances of its bestowal: On the
Day of Pentecost and in the house
of Cornelius. This baptism gave
the apostles special powers, that o!
miracles, including the healing OF
the sick, the ability to speak with
tongues, to discern spirits, and to
foretell the future. None but the
apostles had this power 1t is not
possessed today. Only one proof
of the authenticity of the Gospel
was needed and that was given thru
the apostles at the very first. All
modern claims to heal the sick by
the laying on of hands are false.
No such power was promised for
these days nor is such power pos
sessed. However, Gods people may
have the filling of the Spirit for
comfort and conservation. But
this does not bestOw miraculous
Powers.
The Tabernacle was fairly well
filled for n Saturday night. There
was a good chorus choir. Mr., New
by is an easy, fluent speaker. He
is man of good presence and edu-
cation.

RESTRICTION OF IMMIGRATION
CONTINUED

One of the important measures
with recently passed. the Senate is
the bill extending the terms Of the
ur5seNt Immigration law known as
tho nillingham Act. for an addition;
81 tWo-yaar period.
With certain minor exceptions,
this law limits the number of aliens
Of any nationality who may be ad
u'itt to this country in any fis'
cal year to three percent of the
punler of foreign-bon persons OF
such nationality then residing in
tho nited States. Such restrictio
is n edeh in order to take care OF
the unemployment situation and
enrhlc proper assimilation of aliens
With orr American population. The
bill IN question has also passed the
House and viii become law in due
course.

A driving storm of wind, hail and
rain flooded the streets of the city
Sunday evening. For a time the
woter stood curb high and stretched
from curb to curb in front OF the
Chieftain office. 1t appears that
while it rained all about us, the
hail was mostly in the vicinity OF
town We have not heard of any
damage done to growing crops. In
that case the rain will do an i'm

Famous Statistician Outlines First
Opportunity of Coming
Period

In discussing his recent trip about
the conntfy. Roger w. Babson, stat
iatioian and business authority, out
Iinrs the first opportunity of the
corning of prosperity as follows:
on this recent trip which took
me into practically every large in,
austrlal center in the United States
7 talked to business men, large and
small, about their business, and
we discussed both the present stu
alton and future plans.
TT is very apparent that the ex-
eeutives of America have been busy
since January, 1920, even If the
businesses themselves have not.
In fact American business men
have probably done more real
thinking since the depression set
in than they did i the whole period
of prosperity which preceded It,
Almost every man | talked with
hes a plan for new building, q
new product, or the development OF
new sales field The projeta Is

worked out and he is Just waiting
for conditions to get settled. All
of these mans mean potential bust
ness for next year or the year af,
ter actual orders will be placed

rarch stable levels.
'rThis situation apparent as we
reach the bottom of the present
area of depression in 1922, offers
the first real chance of the, coming
business is now on the production
counter. You can buy it cheaper
now than you win be able to buy
it at any time during the next
four or five years.
1T takes no little courage to 60

spend money for advertising when

Cut production costs as much as is
