A JUNE
IA MARKS $50
ANNIVERSARY

Flag Day, Sunday June 14th marks
the 150th anniversary of the begin
ming of the American Revolution.
The spirit of Flag Day and what it
means to everyone is adequately por-
trayed in the letter to the local or
der of B. P. o. Elks from their
Grand Exalted Ruler, John G. Price.
The letter is as follows:
My Dear Brother Elks:
The attention of the members of
the order is again directed to the
celebration of Flag Day, one of the
foremost of the holidays of the year.
The beautiful ritual which has been
prescribed by the Order for this par
ticular celebration in itself breaches
a spirit of patriotism such as is re-
Elected in all of the principles and
tenets of the order. A public lemon
stration under the auspices of the
various lodges of Elks on this all
important day could not help but
arouse in the hearts and minds of the
people of the various communities
a greater and more intense reverence

BUILDING CHEERS BUSINESS

National reports show that an
enormous volume of building, espec-
tally the smaller kinds of housing, is
casting rays Of cheer upon the whole
business situation.
1t is a well known fact that build
ing construction is the backbone of
prosperity in the higher grades of or
ganized labor and affects numerous
large lines of industry, like lumber,
cement and clay products.
During the first three months of
1925, total building contracts pass
ed the thousand million dollar mark,
a gain of 4 per cent over first quar-
ter of 1924.
March showed a gain of Il per
cent yer last year and 80 per cent
over the awards of two years ago.
Contemplated construction an
nounced this year reaches a total of
2,075,155,00 600, as against $685.
10000 for same period in 1924.
This increase has. been very large
ly due to smaller type of business
buildings and better homes for the
people.

may be said that practically all of
this amount was either spent in Raw
Inns or deposited in savings in its
banks. In addition a large percent
age of the income derived by sur
vivors of employees from insurance
and income of pensioners was spent
in this city.
There are already many branch
lines on the Union Pacific System
where the revenue from train SER
vice is not sufficient to pay the ex-
penses of operation, in fact, in some
cases, insufficient to pay the wages
Of the train INT engine crews. 1t
would be a great misfortune to such
communities if any extensive portion
of this train service is abandoned
and the auto truck or bus service
whose competition brought it about,
becomes no longer able to furnish
adequate transportation of passengers
and freight at the original low rates
that tempted people to patronize
them.
THE number of passengers carried
by railroads decreased about 25 per
cent since 1920, although Ameri-
other time. This decrease in revenue
is equivalent to annual earnings Of
$4,000 employees"
Mr.. Sines is making a tour of the
Union Pacific system. He left Raw
Inns on Tuesday morning for points
west. Talks by several Rawlins resi-
dents were also given at the meeting
on Monday evening.

KID BELLO WILL

Ward Loses In Seventh
Round to Allie
Nelson

Kid Belle, thu sensational San
Diego lightweight, will be Joe
Brown S opponent in the 10 round
main event ut the Imperial Valley
Athletic Club tomorrow night, in.
stead OF Battling Ward.
This decision was reached by the
directors at a meeting held last
light when 1t was decided that al
though Ward may be "A good scrap
per, he could not be in the best pos
Sihlc shape for a fight here after
rcaring in the scmifinal bout at
Wilmington last night. He was
beaten by Allie Nelson, IA youngster
in the game. who took the decision
from him, sending the battlcr to the
floor in the seventh round. Ward
rcrHincd his feet and wcathcrcd
Tho remainder of the fight, but the
lcad obtained by the youngstrr WAS
too much for him to overcome.
In Bcllo, Brown will find he has
an opponent equally as good as
Ward, and fighter whom the To-
cal fans like to sec in action. On
the several occasions when Bcllo
has been in action here he has given
good account of himself, and is
well remembered for the gamcncSs
he showed in his fight with Pat Nc
Ndltv. when with one broken hand
and an eve closed tight, he kept try
ing against the slugging lrishman.
The quick knockout he scored over
Tommy Simms also made big hit
here.
brown wired dowt to Harry
Woodbury. today that he Is i'll good
shape and is ready for his fight to-
morrow night. After the showing
H. made against Battling DotN,
there is little need be said about
Brown = ability.

should make the fans hang ON to
