Show HUNTINGTON We appreciated "The Navajo Princess" Princ-ess" played here last Friday night and we heartly welcome Professor Driggs to visit us with another opera. He is certainly a talented man and we are proud to have such a man in our county. The composition of "The Navajo Princess" Princ-ess" was great and the players did well. Laughter and song should be a part of our lives. We should have more of these operas, for they help us to forget the more serious side of life. Our county is full of talented young men and women and all they need is a chance. A party of surveyors, fourteen in number, landed here on the 25th and are surveying a line for the new railroad that is to run through Emery county and also up Huntington canyon, where billions of tons of coal lie bedded neath mother earth. We are looking forth to the time when that coal will be the means of changing our little town into a city. Absut five inches of snow fell here on the 23d.
