G. V. News. , conditions that now prevail at the term of the opening of the school year, points to an auspicious term and one that will surely establish a new record in Salina. With the buildings blight and clean from the dibits of Robert Osboin, the obliging janitor, the spirit of cooperation and persistent work is evident. Both the gxade and high school buildings have undergone renovation during the past summer months. The grade school building has been and painted inside and out at a cost of $G00. The clean, inviting rooms, however, are an inspiration to both student and faculty and all are comfortable and happy. Never before in the history of the schools of Salina have the faculties of both schools been more efficient and human. Principal Evans previous experience with the high school and Mr. Ovcrsons general disposition and acquaintance with grade school work, gives the schools two splendid educators. The instructors associated with them, besides being well trained and efficient, are optimistic and pleasant, intensely interested in their work and the community. The enrollment in the high school1 has reached 150 and forty are enrolled in the eighth grade. There are nearly 300 students in the grades, the enrollment in each room being as follows: Seventh grade, 33; sixth grade, 45; fourth, 35; third, 40; sec- get-togeth- er Midi Raps Pacer Si Late p 4 . 11)23-2- County Fair Directors Make Premium Awards Mare Jas.

Exhibitors, concessionaries, race fans and visitors of all sexes and all ages expressed themselves more than fully pleased, and highest credit is due to the fair directors who so splendidly succeeded in putting on and putting over so splendid a fair in so short a time. First and foremost consideration was given to our agricultural and live stock interests which can be seen best from the fact that the premiums paid to exhibitors in these two classes amounted this year to $2300 as against $700 in former In addition to the fact that years. everything was wound up in the best of shape, this years fair is also remarkable from the point of attendThe ance and financial success. gate receipts came within $100 of the highest gate of any former year, With entry amounting to $2800. fees, concession dues and other resources, this was enough to fully break even with all expenses, except only the permanent improvements made, wThich will have to be covered with the help of the county, city and from other sources. We repeat that credit and praise is due to the fair directors and Manager Henderson.

The principal and teachers urge parents to have their children register now, even if it becomes necessary to hold them out later to assist in the harvesting of the beets. In the high school the students may pay their tuition, and fees with checks, cash or tender their notes for 30, GO or 90 days. The notes will be sent to the board and the clerk will collect them when they become due. The football season is here and the prospects are bright for. a successful year. The boys, though the splendid aid given by the business peoople and others, have their suits, which were purchased last year. Carl Swen-sewho wil guide the hopefuls during the winter, has been trained by some of the best coaches in the west and he thoroughly understands the game. The boys who are to be lined up in the various sports, are showing more than the usual interest and if this continues and every effort put forth, Salina will have a creditable and likely a victorious bunch of footballists. The first game is sceduled for October 6. This will not be ar league game but a contest with some of the contenders in this section. The league schedule, it is announced, will be published later. May we hope that every citizen and student in Salina wil lbe 100 per cent loyal to their schools and Moil Gray & Murdock, contractors doing the paving on the highway projects between Salina and Redmond and the stretch through Salina, have abandoned the work on the Redmond project, temporarily at least, with a view to facilitating traffic along the highway. Some little difficulty has been encountered by the school trucks going tha east detour and with the heavy trucks and loads of students some delay has been occasioned and in some cases the students have been late in arriving at school promptly. The work has ben completed below Redmond as far as the bridge and traffic is now being routed on the main highway. In the meantime the concrete workers and graders have started work on the west end of the Salina project. Breaking ground for grading, removing the proportioning plant and other necessaries for the work was done the middle of the week and good headway is now being made under the supervision of Superintended Miller. No time will be lost in completing the laying of the cement from the west terminal and if nothing happens and favorable weather condition continue the work will be completed in twenty or thirty days. If, at the completion of the work to the intersection of Main and State street in the city, conditions will permit, the work connecting with the Redmond bridge will be rushed through. ' Gray & Murdock, awarded the contract for paving the block in the city, are rushing things. The grading is being hurried along and by the end of the week this will be materially advanced. Mr. Murdock plans to have this work done and ready for use by no later than October 15 th. en For Slats Fail The Pain fireworks, largest and most spectacular ever shown anywhere in the West, have been engaged at a huge expense to give a display each evening of the Utah State Fair, October 1 to 6. This show embodies all the novelty, brilliance and thrill of modern pyrotechnics at their best. That it is a brand aew kind of entertainment for the people of this region is indicated by the fact that last year was the first time they ever showed at all. That the Pain fireworks are not to be confused with the ordinary displays seen on celebration days, is the statement of W. Di Sutton, manager of the fair. They are colossal in scope and long in duration, conminsuming one hour and forty-fivclimax to utes The the performance. with these bright prospects make of each evenings display will be a this a banner year. spectacle of marvelous beauty and This feature surprising conception.
