At the coming city election to be held this fall the people of this town will be called upon to vote for or against a proposition of issuing municipal bonds to cover the cost of erecting a convention and dance hall in this city to cost between twenty and thirty thousand dollars. Its primary function is to afford the young people of this city and county a place in which they can have wholesome recreation under proper supervision. Is it a pay ing proposition? Frfom a purely business standpoint one of our citizens said it certainly is not. Revenue realized from it would not stand payments on the upkeep. The young people of this county will never patronize it they want to be away from city jurisdiction. Past records show that the old city pavilion was a financial failure as well as the city hall with something like fifteen thousand dollars improvements. A dance pavilion under the guidance and maintenance of a municipal corporation can never succeed. On the other hand the younger set are now desert- ing Price and seeking amusement in other places away from their parents and under the guidance of people who look at it only from the dollar making side. Truly it is becoming serious. Price is the center of this county the county seat and should have facilities that would attract people something better than any other town. What does it matter what a few dollars mean compared with the life of your child ? As one man puts it : One childs life is worth the entire cost of the dance hall. It may not be a financial success and again it may be, but at least it Will afford the young folks of this community a place for dean, wholesome recreation and if properly supervised by one who understands their needs and wants will mean the proper rearing of our future ritizens. Think it over it will be up to you. - R. A. Greene had been succeeded ns agent at Sunnyside for the railroad by C. P. Pennon.

There is an old saying to the effect that it is pretty hard to get too much of a good thing. Right now it can be applied to good roads, for within the past few years thousands of miles of new highways have been built and old ones improved, and yet we havent enough of them. Last year alone the government, through its federal aid system, spent the enormous sum of Add to that the millions spent by the states and counties and the total is staggering. The time has arrived when good roads are the nations greatest asset. Fair weather roads, that are serviceable only at certain seasons of the year, are no longer profitable. Today the prosperity of the entire country, as well as its comfort, happiness and advancement depends more on good roads than on anything else. We can raise the biggest crops in the history of the world and yet be on the losing side of the ledger if our roads are in poor shape. Most of those living hereabouts who do not yet own an auto have come to realize that good roads mean about as much to them as to those who do own cars. It means their prosperity, whether they own a car or not Good highways do more to increase property value than ever before, and the poorest section in the land today is that which has to be reached over bad roads. Ever' part of the country is waking up to this and fighting tooth and nail for more and better roads. No matter how good we may think ours are at this time, there is room for improvement, and still more of them would add to our prosperity. Lets get a violent case of the good roads fever right now and talk roads and better roads until we are. blue in the face but what we get everything we need along $1,500,-000,00- this 0. line. From present indications it is going to be a long time before the world quits talking about Charles Lindberg and his flight across the Atlantic Ocean. If there ever was a time when one name was on everybodys tongue it has been since this product of a Middle Western town landed in Paris. He is a typical son of the soil, a real American boy. He carries no high sounding college degrees. He never had but two thousand dollars in his life and that sum, which he earned carrying the mail, he put into his airplane.

The business meeting ya opened by Monsignor A. F.

Mrs. A. R. Kolilmety then stated that the object for which this league was formed is to work in harmony with Catholic principles, to promote a spirit of mutual helpfulness and social intercourse among its memliera, to promote and advance literary and educational interests and to assist in organized philanthropic efforts that mav be for the welfare of the county. were The constitution and uniformally adopted and a nominating committee of five was elected to select officers to be voted uixm at the nezt regular meeting, to be held ill this city at Notre Dame Hall nezt Tuesday at 2:30 o'clock.
