OUT-OF-DOORs ATTRACTING
MANY THESE WARN DAYS

Oh, the joy Of these pleasant June
days when one can forget the cares of
life and enjoy natures delights-an
outing in the mountains; a fishing trip
along the river banks: a picnic in
some shady nook. or a motor trip, for
even 4 day-makes you feel like an
entirely different person. The past
week or two have been a great tcnp-
tation to Gunnison folks TO indulge in
an outing. Quite a number of out
door gatherings are reported this
week.
George Frye and wife Of Baldwin
spent two days camping at Lake San
Christobal the last of the week.
Mr. and Mrs. John Rozman, Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Winters and Miss Agnes
Winters enjoyed an outing up Taylor
River Sunday.
About thirty of the college students
spent the day at Waunita Hot Springs
last Saturday, swimming, eating and
generally enjoying themselves.
The high bridge at Sapinero is still
a source of great interest and several
carloads of pleasure seekers took oc-
casion to make trip down there.
Mr.. and Mrs. Arthur Miller and
the J. Milton Cunningham family are
spending the week at the Cap and
Ball resort above town, enjoying camp
cooking and trout.
w. J. Doig, wife and daughter, Miss
Wilma, Mr.. and Mrs. Alex Campbell
and baby, Mr.. and Mrs. Leonard Glad
-l .,f nd
G. V. Benson family Of Crested Butte
enjoyed Sunday picnicking in Taylor
Canon.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charley Bates and
daughter, Violet and Violet Lynes,
Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Stone, Mrs. Mayme
Curtis and son, Byron Hewitt. and
Noel Hamm took a picnic supper and
went down the river Monday evening.
A lovely time was enjoyed.
The members of the Altar and Ros-
airy Society enjoyed an outing Thurs
day afternoon ut Camp Cap and Ball,
the guests Of Mrs. Fred Winters and
Mrs John Rozman. This was also
the regular meeting date. The guests
were treated to an appetizing lunch
before leaving for home.
The college biological station on
Taylor River, gift Of which to the
school was recently confirmed when
President Coolidge signed the bill
transferring 100 acres as gift from
the government, was the mecca Of a
number Of pleasure seekers during
the weekend. 1t is beautiful spot,
containing half mile Of the finest
part Of the river for trout fishing, and
is already equipped with comfortable
buildings which answer the purpose
for recreation as we'll as being base
of supplies and scientific investigation

CARE OF THE KITCHEN STOVE

Nickle- trimmed stoves require
daily care. 1t is not difficult to keep
nickle bright and clean il It is thoroly
wiped each morning. II grease and
dust is allowed to accumulate, the
nickel must be washed with hot, soapy
water and polished with a soft, dry
)cloth. II stains remain, an applica-
tion Of nickel polish may be used.
Stove polish may be used to blacken
the top of the stove. However. this
is not necessary provided the stove is
wiped every morning with damp
cloth and then rubbed briskly with a
crumpled newspaper. Paraffin ole
may be used rather than blacking. Ap-
ply with a soft cloth when the stove is
cold. Overheating a stove is respon-
sible for the white appearance of the
lids.

In December, 1874 At the age of 10
Roger sullivan hired a small store
and one cigarmaker and began the
manufacture and sale of cigars. Lat =
e. he located at IA Elm street. Man
chester. From the street number OF
this store. 724, the 1-20-4 cigar de-
rived its name.
Since 1874 the business has out =
glHwn six factories and now occupies
one of the largest ami most hygieniC
cigar factories in the world. More
than 1900 men and women are EN-
ployed. with an annual payroll OF
over two million dollars.
Some idea Of the magnitude of this
business can he realized in the state
mcnt that in 1923 the firm of X. G.
Sullivan paid the United States gov
eminent S2,225 600 for import and
stamp taxes alone. A recent pur-
chase of Havana tobacco amounted
TO S1.400,000.
This phenomenal growth was due
to the sagacious judgment of Mr.
sullivan. He vas habitually affable
in manner. consideTate and chart
table. and his friendly personality
made friends of all who knew him.
Notwithstanding its enormous
growth. the entire business was
owned by Mr.. Sullivan until his
,ieath., July Is. 1918. Since then il
has been and is now owl ned aud
operated exclusively by his family.
