THE WAR ON DRINK.

We doubt if the majority of South

state which has not established pro-

The reason is simple. The South
in its marvellous new prosperity faces
two imperative needs-better labor
and less crime.
The Southerners strike down the

Facts About
The Great Majestic Range

It is the only range in the world made of
MaIleabIe and Charcoal Iron.
1t has, beyond any question of doubt,
the largest and best reservoir.
1t uses about half the fuel used on other
ranges, and does better work by far.
The Majestic All Copper Nickeled Reservoir
heats the water quicker and hotter than any
o ther 1t is the only reservoir with a removable
frame.
The Charcoal Iron Body of the Great Males
tic Range lasts three times as long as a steel
body.
Being made of non=breakable material,
there is practically no expense for repairing the
Majestic.
AS for baking, it is perfection, not only for a
few months. but for all times to come.
A Great Majestic Range lasts three times
as long as a cheap range, but it don't cost three
times as much.

WHAT THEY ARE DOING IN
THE CANON CITY HIGH SCHOOL

cational system which threatens to
endanger not only the future of our
schools, but to affect adversely the
spirit of American democracy by en-
phasizing class feeling, has been pre-
sented to the American parent by the
establishment and development of the
high-school fraternity.
The situation is just this: Some
thirteen or fourteen years ago there
sprung up in the high schools of this
country secret societies patterned af-
ter the college and university frater-
mites. The inspiration for these came
partly from principals who had found
their own college societies distinct
benefit. The high school fraternities
were quickly followed by sororities,
and these organizations thrived harm
lessly for while. They were generally
silly. but they were innocuous. AS they
increased in numbers, and were
strengthened by the the chapter sys-
tenn all over the country, until today
they are the dominating element in
the schools, and any challenge of their
supremacy is accompanied by threat
ened overturning of all school discip-
llut 1oudy olC Pl uSliShAly
united in regarding the high school Sc
cret society as an elephant on their
hands, and they are extremely anxious
to rid themselves of it. How, is the
question teachers, parents, and even
lawyers are asking themselves.
The three main charges on which
the high school secret society is ar
raigned are O that 1t is undemocrat-
ic, (2) that it resorts to cheap politics,
and (3) that it Is Independent Of school
control. The National Educational as
ISOLATION Investigated the matter and
from the results Of the investigation
saw fit at a meeting in 1905 to resolve
against such societies, because they
are subversive to the principles Of
democracy which should prevail in
public shools; because they are sell
fish and tend to narrow the minds and
sympathies Of the pupils; because
they stir up strife and contention; be-
cause they are snobbish; because they
dissipate energy and proper ambition;
because they set up wrong standards;
because rewards are not based on
merit but fraternity vows; because
they inculcate a feeling OF self-suf-
f1ciency among the members; because
secondary schools boys are too young
for club life; because they are expen-
sive and foster habits OF extravagance;
because they bring politics into the
legitimate organization Of the school;
because they detract interest from
study: and because all legitimate ele-
ments for good-social, moral, and in
fhaaa aOrfafioQ claim
to possess can better be supplied to
the pupils through the school at large

clubs under the sanction and super

will not be uninteresting. ~
Fifteen years ago Canon City was
not what its name would imply, for
at that time 1t had not passed the lin
its OF town.
Among its inhabitants then were
a few Of the disciples OF Christ, or
otherwise called christians.
There was not a church Of their
own faith in the town and while we
love all christian worship. there is
nothing that burns in the human
heart like the love Of the home church !;
SO these few found In each other a
kindred spirit and desire to worship
God in the way of the disciples OF old.
Accordingly on the 9th Of May. 1888,
they associated themselves together
in a corporate body under the laws OF
Colorado. with thlrty--seven charter
members.
Their first pastor was e. r. Allyn
and they met In different places for
worship.
Then this little congregation, had
like Isaiah Of old, a vision, and that
vision was a church; 30 they at once
set to work.
J. G. Willis was the next pastor. but
remained only a short time previous
to October. 1891. During his pastorata
the church purchased the present 10.

suited in a shut-out for the Pueblo

Guthrie issuing receipts, was a marvel.
The home team scored five runs in the
first inning. From that on 1t was q
little closer, but the visitors couldn't
solve the mystery Mr.. Dennison served
up.
A crowd OF 300 saw the game and
much interest was displayed. despite
