A Dandy Show.

What was undoubtedly the clean.
est, brightest and most delightful
musical comedy seen in Greeley in
severa; seasons came hefe last Friday
evening under the name THE Time,
the Place and the Girl.' 1t was
full Of sparkling wit, catchy songs,
comedy and pretty ballets. 1T is
the kind OF a show that entertains
and amuses and never leaves bad
taste behind, nor any big social prob
lens to solve. In fact the company
leaves no problems unsolyed, that
the members take up. The whole
seems to be a problem of keeping the
audience constantly changing from
amiles to laughter and from laughter
10 smiles, and the problem is solved
to the entire satisfaction Of the
audience.

VENT TURE
Organized compositors Consider
ing Old-Age Pension

Along the line of meritorious con-
ceptions and achievements Of the In
ternatinnal Typographical Union
none occupies higher place than the
proposition to pension superannuated
members OF the craft, which was
adopted BY the recent convention OF
the union and submitted for mem
pership vote. Almshouses, intrm'
aries and Kindred institutions may
be filled with humanity whose cir
cumstsnces during life, either
through prodigality or misfortune
Lave prevented the saving OF pennies
for the proverbial rainy day. oot
the International Typographical
Union viii have none Of these, for IN
addition to It's Onion Printers Home
at Colorado Springs it is seriously
considering the possibilities OF an
International pension scheme that
will enable it to place In indepeho-
unt circumstances those Vi 'oS
bership who have run life's race Win
no financial advantage to themse'-
yes, and Who are, for family or othet
reasons, unable to take avdantase OF
the adequate provisions OF its maven
of rest.
Local typographical unions OF the
larger size have grappled with the
pension proposition with more .,
less success, but the lnternatlonal
Union giving tlie
matter consideration and staho'ne
insures widespread international

The International Typographical

An organization of $4,000 members,

Many cities have pension funds In
operation for the benefit OF police
men, tiremen, school teachers and
other puDllc servants; the United
States government annually expends
millions of dollars In pensions to its
aged and disabled warriors. An oc-
casional business house has been
noted, that, after a service of long
duration, retires preferred employees
on yearly allowance, but the prac-

that there is no feeling Of

TRADE GOOD
BUSINESS MEN REPORT FINE
CONDITION PAST WEEK
More Money Taken. in Than for
Corresponding Week Last
Year-big Pay Day at
Sugar Factories

The financial scare, If there has
really been one in Greeley this fall.
Is all over, so far as our people are
concerned. The test is the way in
which they are buying goods at the
stores. With very few exceptions,
perhaps. the business houses were all
crowded last Saturday afternoon and
one of the biggest days for the mer-
chants in long time was registered.
One prominent dry goods merchant
remarked that 1T had been little
dull for couple of days during the
week, because the weather was un-
usually warm. Saturday the air
was little sharper and If 1T had
really been cold he wouln't have
been able to take care of the busi-
ness.
Another merchant in an almost
similar line, Saturday evening COM
pared the business of the week with
that of the corresponding week last
year and found that his cash sales
over the counter amounted to s4Oe
more for the past week He ex
pressed himself as OF the opinion
that II any merchant cut down his
orders because of little scare like
that he would find himself up against
It for goods next spring, as business
would undoubtedly be better thaa
Fever. Other merchants reported
.tseuaily encouraging conditions.
| II this IL the condition Of trade
the past week then what will It b
this week and the next, and the
next. Tomorrow over 81, 600, 600 will
be paid out in Weld county by the
Great Western Sugar company.
Three quarters Of this will find its
way into trade or into the banks to
be spent during the winter. The
rest will 60 to pay for labor and
most of it will probably be carried
out of the country.
Even this is not all the money
that will be turned loose here.
Potatoes are selling right along.
Other crops are being disposed Of;
there is another good pay dav due %
beets Dec. Is.
The people Of Weld county we're
never in better condition financially
than they are this year, SO that any
idea Of poor business here Is simply
idle worry.
From Denver also comes the most
encouraging reports. Bank clearings
there for the past week ran nearly
half million dollars more than pre-
previous week, Currency is also COM
ing in from the east and all legtt-
mate business is on as firm founaa-
tion as ever.

TEACHER PROBLEMS
These Were Discussed BY People
of Experience

The annual session of the Weld
County Teachers association was
held In the high school last Friday,
ths program occupying the entire
day. Following the devotional exsfs
cises by Rev. John Doane and short
musical program by the Greeley high
school orchestra under the leadership
of Prof. J. R. Whiteman the subject
of Practical Problems in Rural
School Management" was taken up
by Miss Marie Bohen Of the Pleasant
Valley school. Her talk was con-
sidered one OF the best of the day.
Miss Bohen emphasized particu-
larly the need of complete confidence
between teacher and pupils, the
keeping of order in the school room,
order on the play ground and very
little corporal punishment. The
cultivation OF quiet habits In the
children was also looked upon as i'm
portant. The teacher should culti-
vate kindness and gentleness toward
the pupils and thus encourage them
by example to adopt the same con-
duct toward each other and toward
the teacher.
Miss Bohen was ably supported In
her recommendations by John F.
Redman, principal of the schools at
PIatteville. .
Prof. w. H. Olin of the State
Agricultural college was unable to
be present at the morning session
when he was billed to speak on the
three HIS of educat ion. the head, the
hand and the heart. His talk was
therefore leser we'd for the afternoon.
he maintained that neither Of these
HIS should be developed at the e4.
pense of the other. but that all
should 90 together. The head should
plan, the hand should execute and
the heart should be In the work, to
attain success.
1.-THE Value of Story Telling" was
the subject handled by Mrs. Anna
Heilman Hugh. She illustrated her
point by telling couple of stories
and pointing out the ethical effect
OF telling stories with a good moral
to the children. In her opinion
story telling should be part of the
regular course.
Under the general head of Special
Conferences" Prof A. B. Copeland
discussed arithmetic; Prof. Charles
E. Carter, geography; Prof. Guerdon
R. Miller of the state Normal
school, history.
