Have you seen "the wrong )ew?"
At the literary entertainment last ev
ening was witnessed a larger crowd
than on any previous occasion, The ex
ercises were somewhat curtailed by the
absence of a part of the participants but
the vacancies were partly filled by vol
untaries. One of the most interesting
items in the program was the questions
and answers by Mrs. C, C. Jameson. The
dialogue by foui of the gentlemen was
well rendered and created much merri
ment. The song, "Old Grimes is dead"
ly Dotha and Georgie Bartell and Kear
ny Post took the house by storm at! did
also the recitation by Elmer Smith. Af
ter several otlier meritorius selections
the evenings entertainment concluded by
a short address from Mrs. Bassett in hr
usual earnest and forcible manner.

A Few Things lie Sees Hears and Com-
ii nil uu.
In talking recently with a patr a of 0
the town who lives about 20 miles frorfl
iM're, he informed Rambler tliat the
worst piece of road he had to travel was
tlie main street of Harrison w here the
rocks and stones lie in such profusion,""'
First impressions are not ,4ftways
lasting ones but are frequently acted iq
on. If a )erson is well and favorably
impressed with a town at first sight, it
may go a long way toward determining
their actions for many future years, so
wt advise the citizens to be awake and
alert at all times in trying to improve
the, looks of the town by improving the
looks of each particular part thereof.
If each one will only do a little the ag
gregate will amount to considerable.
-!-Rambler is sorry to be forced to ad
mit that the much talked of improve
ments for the roads through the canyons
lias only been a useless lot of wind ex
penditure so far, with no apparent
prospect of anything more substantial
being done. During the coming wet
weather this spring many places will be
very dangerous if not entirely impassable.
Is the Board of Tmde or the town go
ing to do anything on this subject?
"The wrong pew" is here now.

Charlie Brooks wants to see you about
herding your cattle the coming slimmer.
Little Jimmy Farnam is building a
little house on his little claim.
Phil. McVay proved up on his claim
lately and shaking the gumbo from his
feet he hit the trail for Iowa where he
thinks he has a more lucrative Job than
holding down a claim, at tilling the soil
on his father-in-law's farm.
Wilber Shepherd is a rustler, the only
tiling lie doesn't seem to be successful in
rustling is a house keeper.
A couple of couple wound up the
dance on the 22nd by an "all walk
around" in the snow on their way home.
We could scarcely tell from our remote
poiit of observation, whether the girls
wee taking advantage of the soft
Mercy snow for a carpet to give a gym
nastic performance, or whether the boys
were scaring the horses for a little race,
or toe horses were playing circus with
Hie wlit-le out.'it. We are informed that
the entertainment was instigated by a
broken hame string. The young ladies
furnished the music "viva voce", on a
high key, while the boys played heavy
part they fell heavily over the dash
board into the snow. Bob. gathered up
the fragments while Ned. exercised his
pedal extremities in a spin around the
hill, down by the creek and up by the
garden after his team. Luckily no one
was hurt.
Warbler,
war bonnet no. 2.
School closed ill district No. 15 last
Thursday. Miss Robinson will be great
ly missed by the people in the valley.
Warbler made a mistake; it was not
John Thornton that chopped the wood
for the school house. It was Johnny
Anderson.
Miss Mabel Robinson was the guest of
Miss Stanard the latter part of last week.
Every one remarked on the excellent
lyceum Wednesday evening. The miss
ing of the two preceding meetings
seemed to give them new life and energy
for their work. Several new members
were added to the society.
The dance at Mr. Slattery's last Friday
evening was well attended, there being
alxmt thirty-five persons present. Tliey
all passed a very enjoyable evening,
John Thornton being present.

Some of the young people had quite
an accident on the way home from the

the young men to see to their hame
straps and whiflletrees before starting
in the future.

It was the property of a family by the

Notice in another column the advertis
ment of the new lirm of Conley, Reidy
& Pollard. Mr. Conley has only been
here a few months but has alreaxly
proven to be of the "right stuff". He is
an able attorney and a friend and cham
pion of the people and their rights. Mr.
Reidy is well known in the county and
his friends with one accord testify to
his integrity and that implicit confidence
may be placed in him. He will attend
to locating new comers and soliciting
farm loans. Mr. Pollard will probably
not be here for some months yet but the
firm will put In a full set of abstract
books upon his arrival.
