LETTER FROM ABRAM EIN

MY DEAR JAKE:

MY DEAR JAKE:
OF course you know by this time
what zen strike that little girl
stole away from you has made. 1
was sorry I couldn't get on to New
York for her opening there, but we
are putting in a new production for
her Immediately.
You have, to work fast with these
young women il you want to get the
money out of them. The public soon
gets tired of even the best Of them
and they have only a few years to
make good
I think perhaps that with Paula
things will be d little bit different as
she is very far from being a dumb
bell like the most Of them are and
she has a very great sense OF graft
tude toward yours truly, and / am
sure that she won't get off my lot
the moment some other moving pic
ture pirate offers her $40 more a
week.
Don't think / haven't a contract
with her because l say this. l have,
my boy. but you know how much
good a contract is to any one when
some one really wants to break it.
don't think. however, that little
Perier will break any contract. The
only time she seems happy is when
she is on one Of the sets going
through sher part. So far she seems
very grateful to me.
She certainly is a bear for work
OF course everybody thinks she is
Abbey Einstein's sweety," but they
are all mistaken, Jake. every one Of
them. She treats me as though /

The good sportsman in love does
not:
Make his grief public if he fails to
win the girl he loves.
Bear an eternal grudge against a
girl just because she happened TO love
some other man. (Also applicable TO
girls.)
Flaunt his triumph over his rival.
Continue to display his love even
after the object of it is married.
MANY homes have been broken up
that way.)
Instead, he turns his love into
friendship which is willing to hide it
self rather than cause the loved one
any unhappiness.

l. digested noon-time luncheonS.
OF all food soup answers these re-
quirements But the same soup day
after day soon fails to attract. Chill
dren love change and variety, and a
varied balanced ration or diet is
considered superior to one Of deadly
monotony for a healthy growing
child.
Unusual nervous strain during the
morning school hours often takes"
the appetite. If a child must be
forced to- eat, the food does little
acod, but if the appetite is coaxed
a bit, and responds naturally, the
tension relaxes and the child eats
with a relish.
Tosated bread sticks of whole
wheat bread are excellent to serve
with either cream or stock coup.
They provide more nourishment
than waters and the crispness of the
toast is more wholesome than the
softness of plain bread.
These soups may help vary the
raonotony.
The nourishment of the soup de-
pends on the "stock." This may be
of milk or meat. However, She term
"stock" always means meat broth.
Stock can be made from the bones
or rarely cooked meats. This is
known as second stock and does not
contain the nourishment found in
stock made with fresh meat and
bones. A highly seasoned dinner
soup served to stimulate the appe-
tite rather than to provide any
amount of nourishment might well
be made of these left-overs.

GUARDS TO OPEN
CAMPAIGN FOR RECRUITS

Plans have been formulated to make
the National Guard valuable asset
In the community. For this purpose
plans have been set in motion for
joint committees from the Lions, Ro-
tary and other civic clubs, and the
Chamber of Commerce.
Among the objects to be accomplish
ed is to aid the local company in
maintaining it's required membership;
to make the armory, which has been
built at state expense, a civic or COM
munity center; to aid, indirectly, in
furnishing the armory and contribute
to the comfort and convenience of the
members
The result of these efforts is that a
drive for recruits will open Satur-
day. May 18th, and continue for one
week. Every recruit means that
much more money to Delta and Delta
merchants from the pay granted by
the U. S. Government. With a full
membership this would approximate
$4,000 year.
The joint committees have had one
meeting and every assurance was
given Captain Gueno that the organi-
cation would be supported.

WORK ON DELTA STREETS
COMMENCED MONDAY

Monday was day that has been
long looked forward to by residents
of Delta, for on that day the actual
work of grading and graveling the
streets was begun. 1t had been the
at the south end of Main street but
as it is torn up for repairs on the
water pipe line, work began on Meek
er street at the extreme south end.
About twenty men and teams and SIX
or eight extra men of whom practi-
cally all are local people, were at
work the first of the week plowing
the sides of the streets ready for the
scrapers.
Some difficulty was experienced In
getting enough scrapers and all that
belong to the city and county were
pressed into service. Other machin-
cry. including rock crusher and load
er has been ordered and arrived yes
terday. AS fast as a full set of ma
chinery can be assembled more men
will be engaged and the work car
ried on as rapidly as possible. Even
at that is is estimated that it will
tdhS uutil oOluC IllhC III Au6uoS w
to complete the work.
C. E. Shropshire of Grand Junction
is in charge Of the grading work. Mr..
Shropshire stated that he was wen
pleased with the way the work 10
progressing and that he is particular
ly pleased with the splendid set OF
horses that are on the job. The teams
are locally owned and include some
beauties.
The graveling will be in charge OF
B. H. Simpson, one OF the firm OF
Claybaugh and Simpson, and will
probably be commenced Monday
Gravel will be taken from Garnet
Mesa and will be hauled down to the
crusher by means of a drag line and
pulley attached to tractor. The
gravel will be screened and all over
one and one-half inches will be put
through the crusher This work VIII
be in the hands Of separate crew OF
men, SO the number at work will be
greatly Increased by next week.
All surplus dirt left after the grade
is corrected will be loaded into coun-
ty trucks and hauled away to be used
on the county roads. probably be-
tween the railroad and the river just
north Of town. NJ. B. Sprott OF Grand
Junction, who is timekeeper and su-
pervisor, tells us that there will not
be a great deal Of dirt to be hauled
away as the amount cut off in one
place will be used to fill other places
and also good deal will be needed in
the middle of the street in many
places in order to bring it up to the
proper crown. Where a proper curb
ing has not been put in, the graders
are throwing enough dirt to one side
so that the property owner can put
in the curb and just level off the dirt
and have the right amount Of fill.
]. F. Sleeper. engineer for the con-
tractors, has been on the job laying
off the grades and getting the work
started right. Mayor Penley and
others who are in close touch with
the work feel confident that the road
is going to be good one and that 1t
is being built right.

Road Surveyed.

Road Surveyed.
The new road, Federal project No.
241. connecting the north end of
Main street with the graveled road in
North Delta, has been surveyed by
Oliver b. Cook, resident engineer of
the State Highway department, in
readiness for the dirt which will be
hauled from Delta streets as they are
graded. The new road will be much
straighter than the old one, making
long gentle curve instead OF a sharp
turn this side of the bridge.

Snowfall Heavy.
Incomplete reports indicate that
the snowfall on the Uncompahgre and
Gunnison watersheds is rather above
normal. In view of this fact contin.
ued warm weather IL viewed with
considerable alarm. A few days Of
cold weather right now to retard the
flow of the water would be Of great
value not only in the prevention Of

tion Of the water till the latter part
Of the season. A full report Will

DELTA ELKs WILL
ERECT FINE BUILDING

Delta is to have another handsome
brick building on Main Street this
year, if all reports which seem to be
persistent, are true.
1t is to be a New Elk's home, and
will be two and one-half stories above
the ground. AS the Elks are noted
for doing things right whenever they
undertake a movement Of this char.
acter the new building is expected to
be something the entire community
will be proud Of.
The Delta Lodge of Elks already
own the site at the corner of Sixth
and Main street, well located for such
a building, and plans under consider
alton show an approximate cost Of
$50, 900, which is to include fixtures
and furniture.
When the present officers of the
Lodge assumed charge, last month, a
building and finance committee was
appointed, consisting of J. e. Hill
man, chairman, W. R. Johnson, Clar-
ence Mower, Ernest Engelhardt and
John Beverstock. This committee has
already held meetings, organized 1t.
self, and has made partial report to
the lodge. 1t is said that the majority
ity of the membership is in favor of
building and of financing the project
from the membership alone. An Of.
fort is now being made to increase the
lodge membership to 900 at which
time the building of the home will be
started. The Lodge officers express
mark will be reached during the early
part of the summer, so that the work
of construction can be done concur.

RIVER RISING STEADILY
DUE TO WARM WEATHER

The warm weather of the past week
is very apparent in the Gunnison
which is steadily rising but is not
vet dangerously high. While it is not
quite as high as in 1920. a year when
the water rose to ten feet and over in
June, it is rushing along at great
rate and unless the weather gets q
little cooler in the near future, there
is every possibility that the river
will be higher than is safe for the
bridge and for residents in the river
bottom.
Following are the readings from
