LIONS ENTERTAIN
BASKETBALL CHAMPS

The girls basketball team of the
Garfield County High school and their
coach, Miss Walker, were guests We'd
nesday night of the local Lions club at
their nesting at the Williams.
Carl Fulghum presented each mem
ber of the team with miniature gold
basketball with the words champions
1922 and the letter G enameled on
them. Miss Cornelia Burdge, captain
of the team, responded to the presenta-
ton speech, and Miss Walker also gave
few remarks.
Rich Thomson suggested that the
Lions prepare the Transfer Springs
trail, leading from Fairy Caves to the
old Bennett mill, to connect with the
present Noname trail, and thus make
a good loop trail for tourists and
horseback riding parties. The forest
service and stockmen would help fl
nance this work and committee COM
posed of II. 7. Hubbard, G. NJ. Hunter,
IL. l.. Torrey and r. B. Porter was ap-
pointed to see the county commission
ers and solicit their help in this pro-
ject.
Rev. j. P. Clark, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, addressed the club
on ''Making u Business of Religion" :"
He mentioned that while we are pre-
pairing and improving mountain trails
why not think more about the spiritual
side and make our trail through life
better by taking religion into our
lives.
The committee for Strawberry Day
reported they are making progress
with the work.
The Lions have been invited to Asp
en- next week and will go either Tues
day or Wednesday.

TOM HAS THE SYSTEM

If you want to know how to take
bath. without resort to the bathtub or
the big swimming pool, just ask Tom
Dever. Be's been experimenting all
week and he may give you the recipe,
although he ism It enthusiastic over the
system.
It 3 good thing his landlord, Chan.
ming Sweet, father of the governor of
Colorado, didn It happen to drop in on
Tom during the past few rainy days,
or he might have been blessed with a
little socialistic doctrine, different
from anything he has read in the
books.
After fighting the water as it came
trickling through the roof in the rear
of his jewelry store, running a high
priced phonograph, Tom took heart
when he saw the sun shining, for a lit
tie while and he put phonograph out
on the sidewalk and cranked it up and
started it to playing cit Amt Coin
to Rain No Mo',' but before the rec
ord was finished he was obliged to
drag the machine inside and hurry to
the back room where he stretched a
tarpaulin little tighter in order to
protect some Of his goods from ruin.
Photographs and jewelry were dam
aged by the falling water, and a ship
ment of alarm clocks soon had their
hands full and went on a strike, and
the talking machines got cranky, same
as Tom, and he was sure some talking
machine for awhile, and it's a good
thing for Sweet that he didn't come
by and hear Tom practicing elocution,
or he might have concluded the selec-
tion was made for his benefit. Any
way, Tom had bawth, but he refuses
to say how much it cost him, but says
he will present the bill to Sweet, and
then we shall see what we shall see.
Fine weather-for ducks and Devers.

THE GLORIOUS RAIN

Glenwood and all the surrounding
country is being treated this week to
a million dollar rain. The precipita.
tion started Sunday, and we have had
more or less rain every day this week.
an dtwo feet of snow at Leadville,
and snow on the Book Cliffs and other
high areas the temperature dropped,
bringing furnaces and heating stoves
into play again after we had flattered
ourselves that summer was almost here,
The storm is most welcome at this
time, for it will insure better range
conditions and very materially help
ont on crop prospects. Farmers had
already begun to complain of the short
age of water supply in some sections,
as the shortage in snowfall last winter
made the outlook for the summer sup
ply of moisture far from rosy. The
storm has been general and the soil is
now well saturated.

WATCH Thief IS
PICKED UP HERE

That old adage to the effect that
there is honor among thieves was Civ
en- hard jolt last Sunday when Theo-
dore Lannan, prisonex in the Mesa
county Jail on charge of vagrancy,
at the expiration of his prison term,
se;d goodbye to his fellow prisoners
and sailed forth to breathe the air of
freedom again, but not for long be-
cause before taking his departure he
very adroitly extracted from the per-
son of one ofe the other prisoners the
latter's watch.
The theft was not discovered until
Lannon was well on his way to other
parts, and as he was supposed to have
come to Glenwood, Sheriff Winters. was
asked to be on the lookout for the fell
low, and he nabbed him on the street
Tuesday evening and took him to jail,
finding later that watch had been
pawned with Ed Tarbell, the second
hand man, but this was not the same
watch that had been stolen in Grand
Junction.
After little more sleuthing, Win
ters found that Frank Wilson, who
drives the laundry wagon, had traded
watches with stranger, and the timer
he received Tailed with the one stolen
from Jail, while tie pawned ticker was
the one that Wilson had traded for it.
From that on matters were easy, and
instead Of positively denying that he
had committed larceny, when confront
ed with the goods Lannon confessed
and made clean breast Of the whole
Transaction. Undersheriff Clay came
to Glenwood and left Wednesday eve.
ming for Grand Junction with his pris.

ALUMNI GIVES
BANQUET AND DANNCE

The Glenwood Springs Alumni asso.
citation entertained last Friday eve-
ming in honor of the graduating class
of the Garfield County High school for
the year nineteen twentyfour, with
their customary banquet and dance.
A delicious turkey banquet served
by the ladies of the Episcopal church
assisted by number of high school
gills was enjoyed by ninety graduates,
teachers and members of the school
board.
Between courses the class as whole
through several of its members taken
individually were initiated into the
alumni association. Toastmaster Carl
Fulghum stated that this was the day
of radios and much was heard about
different wave lengths, and he then
called upon Claire Hubbard and Earl
Hopkins to debate the question, 81 Re-
solved, that the proper length of a
marcel wave is fourteen inches.'' In
spite of his best efforts Claire was un
able to convince the judges that four
teen inches was the proper length as
his opponent argued that in this day
of bobbed hair it would be impossible
to have wave length OF, fourteen
inches, and he gave several examples
among those present to verify his state.

The next person called upon was Or
vile Dow, president of the class, who
told his listeners why he was great
athlete. Miss Maurine Bryant was
then requested to give an extemporane-
Gus vocal solo which she did very beau
tifully with Esther Porter as accom-.
panist.

BROWNS SPIRIT
HALTED IN MARCH

"John Browns body lies snoozing
in the jail see.
But his brew goes marching on"
But not for long, for Sheriff Win
tiers very rudely and unfeelingly halted
the line of march, and Glenwood guz-
zlers are in search of new supply Of
poison, and John is already chatting
for the freedom which he once enjoyed,
but did not appreciate.
1t happened this way. Last Friday
as Sheriff Winters was driving down
the river, near the South Canon bridge
he saw car standing close to the
road, its owner examining the engine
and carbureter in a sort Of perfume
tory way which led Winters to believe
that there was nothing wrong with the
car, but that the fellow was in search
of supply Of embalming fluid which
was probably located somewhere in thu
near vicinity
Winters continued on down the river,
but returned about midnight, crossed
the bridge and drove up the creek un-
til he came to a tent occupied by John
Brown, about sixty years Of age "a res
ident of New Castle where he is re-
puted to have been engaged in boot
Logging for a long time.
After placing Brown under arrest
Winters gathered up from various
caches about the tent, several bottles
of liquid hell, such as would not merit
the o. K. of Mr.. Volstead, and brought
the load to Glenwood. When taken be-
fore Judge Bell of the county court
and confronted by his finished and
likewise finishing product, Brown re-
fused to plead either guilty or not
guilty and likewise spurned the sug-
gestion that he be given lawyer to
defend him.
After Judge Bell had listened to the
testimony in behalf Of the People, he
pronounced Brown guilty of the crime
as charged, and sentenced him to pay
fine of $10O and all costs in the case,
and also to peep through the iron bars
for the next thirty days.
