new YEAR BALL
WELL ATTENDED,!
Glas9ow Firemeu's Sixth Annual Ball
Was Commended Az Best Social
Affair of Season.

A large and decidedly representative
crowd attended the New Years ball
given by the Glasgow fire department
at its hall Monday evening, January
second.
Fred Weigel, who is truly an artist,
was chairman of the decorating COM
mittee, and the interior decorations
which consisted Of red, white and blue
streamers festooned across the cell
ing, and the letters, composing the
words Happy New Year" and "Glas-
gov Fire Department" which were
cleverly arranged along the side
walls and designed with red paper
Christmas bells, added the desired fes-
tive and holiay effect. Red, white and
blue paper caps were given as favors
during the evening.
The program, arranged by the Or
chestra, contained just the right num-
ber of fox trots, waltzes and one steps
and the vocal solo by Carl Alderman,
sung through megaphone, with an
orchestra obligato, was especially
COED.
Leo Coleman, as chairman Of the
committee on refreshments, was re-
sponsible for some very good punch
which was served throughout the ev-
ening.
Much credit is due Douglas Hall
and Fred Alvord for their general su-
pervision of the affair and the city
fire department wishes to express
their appreciation for the cooperation
of their guests in helping to make
this particular dance free from the
slightest Objectionable feature.
The affair was something in the
nature of Community get together
as not only large crowd of Glasgow
folks were present, but also people
from Wolf Point, Hinsdale, Nashua
Opheim, Glentana and points on the
Missouri river.
Special mention should be made Of
each person responsible for the sue
cess of the occasion and the following

COOPERATION OF
PARENTS URGED
Scarlet Fever is Again in Evidence
and Every Effort Should Be Put
Forth to Check It.

With the coming Of the new year
several cases Of scarlet fever and
diphtheria have developed in the city
of Glasgow and throughout the coun-
ty. This is a time of year when dis
eases Of this sort are prevalent and
every effort should be made to report
them. Any symptoms which cannot
easily be explained should also be re-
ported.
DR.. M. D. Hoyt has taken a very
decided stand on this proposition in
asmuch as Glasgow has the enviable
reputation of being the most healthy
city in the state. The bulletin he
handed the Courier goes on to explain:
There have been two outbreaks of
Scarlet Fever in the county within
the last month. One at Nashua and
one at Roanwood due entirely to par
ents not reporting cases and the dis
ease becoming spread through the
schools.
There is one case of Scarlet Fever
in Glasgow at the present time and a
number of children have been exposed.
Notice is hereby given that any par
ents who do not report a suspicious
rash or sore throat will be prosecuted
We have the healthiest city in the
state and we intend to keep it so if
possible. In order to do this it is
absolutely necessary to have the CO.
operation Of the parents.
None of you want your children
kept out of school. The quarantine
for scarlet fever is very strict and it
means the entire family locked up
from one to three months. No excuses
as to ignorance will be accepted and
the County Attorney will be asked to
prosecute in every case where negli-
gence on the part of parents can be
shown.

SERVICE

If charity begins at home

HOME FROM DENVER

While in Denver last week County
Superintendent Mr.. Gretta Pottenger
visited several of the CITY nigh schools
and these visits were very profitable
by way Of suggestions for the local
school.
On Tuesday the state oratorical and
spelling contests were held with over
twenty oratorical contestants and over
fifty contestants in the spelling con.
test. In the oratorical contest num-
bers were put into a hat and each
child given an opportunity to draw
numbers to decide his position on the
program. Unfortunately, Ciarancs
Moore Of this county drew number 1
and was the first to give his grafton,
which was disadvantage as the
Judges had almost forgotten his by the
time the others had been given, but

busy this week putting the Crystal
River Railway in passable condition
between Carbondale and Marble.
While no explanations have been made
as to the object of making this i'm
provement or the intentions of those
being responsible for it, it is generally
admitted that the work is being done
to the opening of the road
this spring for the purpose of trans.
porting to market the great quantities
of marble already quarried and ready
to serve commercial needs. The peo-
pie of Glenwood and Carbondale are
very much in hopes that this is the
