This ' was due to the fact that a great many people left their water pipes open at night to prevent them freezing. There-fore more water was used at night . than in day time. (When it was announced through this paper that all persons who their permitted pipes to run at night would b disconnected and prosecuted. It was generally expected that there would be--a number of prosecutions, but so far' there has not been a single complaint, and everybody la getting all the water-tha- t Is necessary.

"V The public Is cordially invited to at-tend. pIIiiopisis will buy elk The proposition of hunting elk in this section suddenly came to a close this week, and many good sportsmen will be disappointed when they read this. Some weeks ago it was decided that in view of the fact that the males greatly outnumber the females in the local herd, and that they now fight a great deal, that it would be a good idea to kill 'off a few of the males and with the money secured purchase a number of does. So local sports got themselves in readiness for the big hunt, and already several little at-tempts have been made. But this all came to an end this week when Jerome Bourgard ap-proached the state deputy game war-den, A. L. Heaston, and asked why it was necessary to kill off any of the males. Mr. Heaston Informed him that the herd was not doing well on account of the fact that the males greatly outnumbered the females. To this Mr. Bourgard said that he would pay half the expense of getting a car load of does to add to the herd. Mr. Heaston is just the kind of a man to take up such a proposition, so without a moment's hesitation he told Mr. Bourgard that he would pay the other half. A short while later Mr. Heaston call-ed at this office and stated that the hunters might call off the sport as a car load of does would be purchased to add to the herd. Mr. Bourgard and Mr. Heaston are both good men and the community will appreciate the steps they have taken. FAREWELL EOS COPPERFfELD BOYS The citizens of Copperfield will give a farewell party to the Copper-fiel- d boya who have just enlisted In the army, tonight at the Odd Fellows' hall. (Elaborate preparations have been made for the occasion and every one should have a good time. lAmong the boys who have enlisted and will leave, for the various encamp-ments during the next few days are Leo ILenz, Tom Mane, Earl Mace. Bil-ly Jackson, Ted Cunluffe, iLeo Mazer-lno- . George Merrick, 'Wlard .Lewis, 1 KayhilL (The features of the party will be addresses by Judge John C. Green and Eugene Sullivan, music and a big ban-quet. Everything will be done. by the Copperfield people to give the soldiers a good time. To the credit of the Copperfield peo-ple it can be said that every soldier who has gone out from that town has been given a farewell party. The peo-ple of Copperfield are all right, and the manner in which they treat their soldiers Is a good Indicator of their patriotism. These farewell parties make the boys feel that the home people are interested in them and leaves on the memory the most pleasant recollec-tions of the old home town and the home folks. ilt would not be a bad Idea for Bing-ham to adopt a Bimllar practioe. . FIREMEN HOLD JOINT MEETING The volunteer fire departments of Bingham held a Joint session Wed-nesday evening in the hall, of depart-ment No. One. The town board were invited and joined with the firemen In their, festivities. The firemen and their friends gathered around the ban-quet table and Mayor Q. B. Kelly gave a fine address. Trustee Harry Brown-le- e responded with a splendid toast. Trustee T. B. Stephens made a few appropriate remarks, as did City At-torney A. C. Cole. Chief .Frank Thompson, of depart-ment No. One gave a brief address and Bert Hocking of Department No. Two presided, and made a short talk. The meeting showed the fine spirit which exists between the firemen and the town board, and everything went off welL HEALTH CONTEST ESSAYS PRINTED Essay by Dorothy Cappele High School, Unclean and decayed teeth cause germ diseases in the following wavs: By interfering with the digestion and so weaking the body, and by furnish-ing a splendid place for bacteria to multiply until such a time as the body becomes weak enough for thtni to at-tack it. The diphtheria germ sometimes lives in the mouths of persons, causing sore gums, abscesses in the mouth, decay in the teeth, also tonsilitis, sore throat and appendicitis. These germs die out more quickly in a clean mouth than in an unclean one. Most of the diseases of the air pas-sages and lungs are germ diseases. Dust causes these diseases by carrying germ Into the air passages and wound-ing the walls of the air passages in such a manner that the germs already there may grow and multiply. Flooding the room with bright sun-light will purify the air, and a well lighted room is not only much pleas-ante- r, but much healthier than one that is dark and gloomy. iA.ll rooms should be properly ventilated and the air kept moving to keep it fresh. School children should avoid pass-ing objects to one another, and do away with the common drinking cup; If each school child does his part to keep himself in perfect physical health, he will not only be able to re-sist disease himself, but will not be a menace to the welfare of his fellow students. Essay by Annie Masters, High School. Children should like In a healthful way to protect their bodies against dis-ease germs. Wealthy children are not nearly so susceptible to disease germs as are weakly children. Unclean and decayed teeth cause 111 health. They fonr a breeding place for all kinds of bacteria which mixes with the food and passes down the throat Into the stomach. In the stom-ach and intestine . this bacteria fer-ments and sours the food which inter-feres seriously with the health of the body. Children should use a tooth-brush dally and visit a good dentist twice every year so that their decayed teeth can be attended. Many diseases are spread by cough-ing and sneezing in public places. The germs are sent out into the air from the mouth and nose and so other peo-ple come In contact with the germs. Children should never use public drinking cups or public hand towels. If a sanitary drinking fountain is not Installed In the school the children should be provided with individual cups. Many disease germs may lodge on the point of a lead pencil so if the children place their pencils in, their mouths these germs may enter the body, and if the body Is not strong enough to resist them they will cause disease. Disease germs may be transmitted from the sick to the well child, so children should avoid contact with those who have fever or sore throat. THE HEW SOLDIERS OF BINGHAM (Contributed) 'A detachment of Co. D, 61rd Infan-try. U. iS. regular army, consisting of one sergeant, one cook and six pri-vates, arrived at Bingham last week to relieve the California coast artil-lery. They are the best looking sol-diers that have as yet been stationed In Bingham. ?., They 'came from a warm "country and It will take some time to get used to the snow and ice. The boys hated to leave San Francisco, but as they are here, they seem well pleased with the people of Bingham. They have plenty of warm clothing and a lot of good things to eat, and one of the best cooks in the West-ern department to cook it. The peo-ple of Bingham wish the soldier boys good luck. TOiflll BOARD IVILL PREVENT FLOODS The town board held their regular meeting Wednesday evening and pass-ed the usual monthly bills. Other matters of routine business were at-tended to and the meeting adjourned to Join with the firemen. The most important piece of busi-- i nets discussed was the plans to be made to prevent the big damage which was done last spring by the floods from the melting snow at the head of Markham Gulch. While the board has not fully developed their plans for this work, yet they intend to take strenuous measures to prevent a re-currence of this terrific flood and its corresponding damage. i MACASEES ffiftll m MEMBERS; ENJOY BAHQUcT The local lodge of Maccabees in-stalled twelve new members here Wed-nesday evening. Supreme Command-er J. C. Hanchett, of Salt Lake City, was present and helped to put on the degree work. This was followed by a fine banquet. The lodge now has a total member-sho- p of more than 200 members, WHY INSULT OLD GLORY (Contributed) In the early days of the entrance of our country Into the great world war, Bingham responded .generously and patriotically to the call to display the national emblem, and flags were afloat from all the prominent places in the camp. Now it is to be noted that only the tattered, soiled fragments of these flags are to be seen, and one might well question the' patriotism that al-lows the flag of the nation to remain in such condition. The large flag pro-vided by popular subscription, and hung at the intersection of Carr Fork and CWain IBingham Canyon, while not torn, is badly soiled; of the flag hung on the Utah Copper heights, only the soiled fragments remain: the flag on the CommercIaUClub, which with the flng staff, was torn away by snow sliding from the roof, remains fallen where the snow waves swept it, and others are flying that hardly retain any semblance of the banner we love and love to call "Old Glory." Would It not be well to suggest that we ?Ither show the flag the honor of keeping it In fair condition, or take It down, and not permit it to remain afloat after the elements have reduced it to shreds; or perhaps, it would be better still to suggest that Bingham again show foich to the world her love of the flag by renewing her effort at decora-tion, and let the Red, White and Blue in all the pristine freshness that be-longs to our "Old Glory" float to the breezes of Bingham Car.yon. BENGHAM ORIENTAL ENLISTS III UNCLE JliY KI1 Seurk Kim, native of Hawaii, born of Korean parentage, and who has been a resident of Bingham for some time, has qualified for service In (he United States army. Kim is a real American and he is the first Binghamito of Oriental ancestry to fall In line. 'He is well known In Bingham and has many friends In the camp. Jle is a young man of intelli-gence and wido experience, and is an authority on Oriental customs and racial traits. Furthermore, he Is un interesting talker and conversational-ist and furnishes much entertainment and dispenses much information on various topics to (Bingham people. Kim will render good service to the government In whatever he Is assign-ed. He is a good fellow and the boys here wish him the best of luck In the army. CLIFEQRD MAYER AND MISS STOGKMAHARE. MARRIED Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Mayer last week received a communication from Washington sating that their son, Clifford Mayer, and Miss Marcella Stockman were married In that city Jan. 25.

CIVIL ACTION FOLLOWS CRIM-INAL IN EMBEZZLEMENT CASE Recently one (Luka Chaurlck was tried in the local court on a charge of embezzlement,, it being claimed by the prosecuting witness that he had placed some $300 with the wife of the defendant for safe keeping and that the defendant had appropriated the funds to his own use and absconded, later he was arrested and he vigor-ously denied the charge, and to make sure that all his legal rights might be protected he secured the ' services of Attorney A. C. Cole to look after his rights in the premises. When the case came to trial the de-fense sprang a surprise on (he Ute by showing that the wife of the de-fendant was a gratuitous bailee. The county attorney was here and prose-cuted the case with determined vigor, but the defendant was released. Following this Mike Petrollch, the prosecutor, who claims to have been fleeced out of his hard-earne- d money, turned his attention towards the civil courts and has brought suit for the re-covery of $750 damages. .

Mr. Zwlcky. founder of the Miners' Mer-cantile company, and for more than a score of years leading business man of Copperfield. has disposed of his Inter-ests and severed his connections with the concern. When it became known that he had retired from active business the people of Copperfield and iBingham plunned a surprise by which to express their appreciation for the Valuable services he has rendered the community. The meeting was held in the Odd Fellows' hall and the Odd Fellows of Copper-fiel- d and the firemen of Bingham par-ticipated in the affair. The loving cup was purchased by the citizens of Cop-perfield, who for many years have known and held (Mr. Zwlcky in the highest esteem. The presentation was ' made by Judge E. IE. Dudley in an appropriate talk, and Eugene Sullivan expressed the admiration and esteem In which the people of highland Boy V and Bingham held Mr. Zwlcky. P , Mr. Zwlcky began business In Cop perfield many years ago and by close application to his business, and at all times dealing squarely with his cus-tomers, built up a large patronage and met with a merited success.

It invaded this section under the name of "Tanlac," and Immedistely the peo-ple began inquiring what this new preparation was. Also they began pur-chasing the same. tLocal druggists be- - fore they could secure a supply had call after call for the new remedy of which they had read in the papers, and even now the demand is so great that the dealers find It difficult to se-su- re a sufficient quantity with which to supply their customers. By the first of this month more tlinn a thousand dozen bottles had been sold In Utah, and the Jobbers are now or-dering it in car load lots. "Tanlac" was introduced Into this state by G. F. Willis, of Atlanta, International dis-tributor for the product. It has en-joyed an unprecedented popularity In the South and Middle West, and it looks as if it Is going to make a record in the intermounUtin country. DEPUTY JJ. EDMONDS AIDS IN BOM OF EimS Deputy Sheriff J. W. (Edmonds was In Salt 'Lake last Saturday night to aid in the round up of the girls of the underworld In compliance with the federal ragulation that such should not exist within five miles of an army encampment When it was decided to make this raid some preliminary work was done In the way of spotting and locating the houses and individuals under suspic-ion, and under this system 91 birds were marked for slaughter. However, many of these beauties, it seems, had friends at court, who tipped them off regarding the approaching avalanche and when the net was spread only six-- i teen maidens and one soldier were cap-- I tured by the officers. They were held wlttTbut hail by the federal authorities. The others took wings and flew to nearby communities, Ogden being the chief city of refuge. A few, It Is said, 'with eyes which shine like the stars of morning and lips redder than cherry in the summer time, paid Bingham a call. When the state went dry last Aug-ust. Nevada and Wyoming magnani-mously received those who could not survive In dry territory, but it is said that these two states are now well stocked in that line and can hardly accommodate the remainder who are ' being banished from Utah.
