FARM LIFE DESIRABLE
Less Worry and More Happiness on
the Farm Than in Life in
City or Town.

The following truthful and timely ar
ticle was written by well known far
mer for the Tribune;
''God made the country and man the
towns" The first fathers led pastoral
life, and it was the gentle. simple life it
seems the Lord intended for man. How
ever, in our complex civilization it is out
of the question for all to be welded 10
the soil, and yet the trend of population
cityward is recognized by many as a
menace to our conditions. The exodus
from the glad, free, wholesome life of the
country to the fetid, congested, fiercely
competitive life of the city is inexplica-
ble to me. Man is naturally gregarious,
and there was a time perhaps when the
isolation and utter lonliness of rural life
might have offered fitting excuse for
seeking larger companionship. but today
with the farmer community enjoying al
most every convenience of which the
city man can boast, and much of the best
of living to which he is total stranger.
with opportunities of culture and the ac
QUESTION of all the graces and refine
ments which heretofore were in a large
measure denied the children Of the soil,
there seems slight reason for this rush
ing cityward to be overwhelmed in the
maelstrom of greed and passion. How.
ever, had hold tn the optimistic view.
believe millennium OF prosperity, OF
sweet content, of serene happiness is be-
ing ushcred in for those associated with
the soil, and ere long instead of the
trend being cityward eager, longing eyes
will be searching out the blessed spots
on earth where peace and plenty and the
refining and gracious things OF life will
prove allurements sufficiently potent to
attract and hold.
As with every other occupation there
are some unpoetic features to farm life,
some trying, soul-racking experiences,
and yet when all is said and done | am
candid in the statement that there Is less
of heartbreaks, less of the bitterness of
social ambitions thwarted more of peace
and generous plenty, and wholesome,
cleanly living to be credited to those
who till the soil than to almost any other
profession.
Then hol for them who till the soil
And bless the earth with honest toll.

No Pardon for Horny.

An effort is being made to have John
Horny pardoned fiom the Industrial
school at Golden. Horny, it will be re
membered, is the lad who shot and kill
ed the seven year old son of Henry Boe-
gel OF Hill Top, last summer Judge
Palm appeared before Gov. Mcdonald
and the board of pardons last Saturday
in an effort to prevent him from being
released. The judge is right and we
hope he succeeds in blocking the way
for pardoning the lad. He is certainly a
degenerate or he never would have cared
so little about his crime or what was
done with him. When boy cares only
for cigarettes and dime novels there is
something radically wrong with him
The Industrial school is the best place
for Horny and we hope they will keep
him there for some time to come Cas-

The Student Body.

a study of the composition of the stu
dent body at the University of Colorado
reveals the fact TINT out of an approx
mate total enrolment of sesen hundred
and fifty, the number OF students coming
from outside the state of Colorado is one
hundred and thirty eight. In all twenty
nine states and eight nations are repre-
sented. Some of these students have
come because of superior advantages of
fered by the university and the presence
of large number is to be explained by
the fact that they intend to make Colo
RADIO their home.
Ohio claims the greatest number out
side of Colorado, II students registered: :
Iowa and Illinois are next, with 10 each; /;
New York furnishes 9, Nebraska, 7: Cal

Local Paper a Good Investment.

"Every year every local paper gives from
800 to 5000 free lines for the benefit of
the community in which it is located
No other agency can or will do this
The editor in proportion to his means
does more for his town than any other
man. He ought to be supported, not be-
cause you happen to like him or admire
his writing, but because local paper is
the best investment a community can
make. 1t may not be crowded with
great thought, but financially it is of
more benefit than both teacher and
preacher. Today editors do more for less
pay than any men on earth. Patronize

Nay noye to Ebert.

A well founded rumor has it that More.
land Bros. of Eastonville contemplate
moving their creameay plant to Elbert
in the spring. Henry Moreland when in
Ebert some weeks ago told friend here
that they would probably move to Elbcrt
in the spring and said that they already
had site selected for their business.
Moreland Bros. have been doing big
business at Eastonville for several years.
They are progressive and wide awake
business men, and the Tribune hopes to
see them located in Ebert at no distant
date, where they will be more centrally
located and in more populous commun-
ity than they now are.
