SHORT MEMORIAL
SERVICES HELD.
Impressive Ceremonies We're Hold
Al Nixon Opera House Ysstsr-
day Morning In Homer Of
Departed Soldiers

Services for Memorial day were
conducted in the Nixon opera house
yesterday morning under the aus
pices of the American Legion, and
although the cold and rain kept
some of the Winnemucca people
from attending, a fair sized audi
ence was present to pay tribute to
our soldier dead.
Attorney L. o. Hawkins, acting
as chairman, opened the ceremonies
by asking that everybody join in
singing "The Star Spangled BAN
ner," lead by Mrs. L. G. Campbell,
which was immediately followed by
the invocation by Rev. J. s. Talbot,
a solo by Mrs. L. G. Campbell,
scriptural reading by Father Hugo
Meisekothen and a solo by J. A.
Reavely.
The Memorial day address was
given by Judge ]. A. Callahan Of
the district court, and he paid trib-
ute to the boys who had made the
supreme sacrifice that the United
States might be q better and safer
country to live in and that the
people of today should continue to
make it still better and more sub
stantial government than ever. He
said that today the entire country
had laid aside its working clothes
that it might 60 back and review
our progress from the very begin
ming up to the present day and to
think Of what 1t means to M to
progress still further. He pointed
the way of how we could continue
this progress and where we could
begin by saying that we, the indi-
vidual, must progress before . gov
ernment can, and that right here Ia
Winnmeucca is the place to start.
He said that our government Is
made up of successful individuals,
each and every one of whom is a
vital portion of the government as Z
whole. 1t was to keep this nation
safe, and that our citizens might
continue to make it a successful
government, that our soldier boys
fought, and that it Is up to N TO
continue to make it 80.
America" was the last song Of
America" was the last sone Of
the program, the audience taking
part, being led by Mrs. Campbell.
Rev. ]. H. Westervelt closed the
ceremonies with a short benediction.
From the Nixon the American

Valuable Rains This Week

The entire Humboldt county dis
trict has been visited by greatly
needed and valuable rainfalls dur
ing the last week, .totaling in this
city, according to the official re-
port, thirty-four hundredths of an
inch, as follows: .02 on Sunday,
.18 Tuesday, IL Wednesday, and
.03 today. The storm is over, how
ever, if the forecaster is correct,
for he promises fair and warmer
weather tonight and tomorrow.
The storm and cold weather,
which have necessitated house warm
ing fires during recent days, have
not been without damage, however,
for pessimistic reports come here
from Paradise Valley concerning
possible loss from freezing, while in
McDermitt the gardens suffered. One
report current on the streets here
today is that mantle of snow eight
inches deep fell in the Denio dis
trict. This will probably do the
range more good than it can do
hagm, according to popular concep-
ton hereabouts.

Returning to Midas to start ex-
tensive development work on the
Colorado Grande group, L. R. Noble,

An interesting fact in connection
with the graduation this year is that
the number of pupils who would
have graduated, being actually "a,
but which would have. been 26 ex-
cept for one death and the leaving
of school of another senior pupil
during this year, is that the gradu-
ates equal in number half of the
total number of pupils who. were
in attendance at the high school
when Prof. j. D. Scott entered upon
his duties as principal six years
ago, the number then being So
pupils, including those of all grades.
During his term as principal of the
high school, which followed four
years of service as principal of the
Winnemucca grammar schools, Prof.
Scott has succeeded in bringing
up the total enrolment of students
until this year the number of
scholars in attendance is 12O.

Aboard Mauretanis i'm New York
Harbor, Oct. 5.-The unhappiness and
difficulties resulting from the war
have been caused by an improper OF
ineffective operation of the provisions
of the treaty of Versailles, David
Lloyd George, former premier OF Great
Britain, declared today on his arrival
in America for a tour of the United
States and Canada.
II do not think the mischief u
with the Versailles treaty. The
trouble has been with how the treaty
has been carried out" Mr.. Lioyds
George said. =
The most important factor which
might lead toward a settlement or the
difficulties of Central Europe, should
be an acceptance of the proposals or
Secretary Hughes, in his New Haven
address. that the situation be an1iyz-
ed and adjusted by an internatlonai
committee of competent statesmea
and economists. 80
Asked whether. there is any immin-
ent danger in the Central European
situation. the veteran British statess
man declared:
"There is always danger IN Central
Europe. The situation is pretty bad,
isn't it. The one thing which might
have helped would have been the ae-
ceptance OF your Mr.. Secretary
Hughes proposal. It is.nOt Zoo late,
but IL is pretty late.
The League of Nations. Mr.. Lloyd-
George declared. had certainly been
weakened By the Greco-Italian situa-
ton and its settlement. He refused
to declare his attitude toward Pre-
mier Mussolini'S conduct in the i'm
brogliO.
