LESSON ADVERTISING

The enormous crowd that visited

tbe most valuable lessons in adVer-
rising that has been given here IN

body in the country for radius OF
ten miles. seem to be here but there
were several thousand people from
other parts OF northern Colorado
What was done by the Fourth OF
July committees can be done IN 'he
same proportion by every merchant
who will Systematically advertise ms

for that whole celebration. and that
paid all bills. including the $500 for
the japanese fireworks. Only
small proportion OF the fund went
for actual advertising purposes, so
that it will be seen it does not re-
ouire A fortune to bring out a crowd
by this means.
The advertising was done by news
papers. by posters and by personal
letters sent out 10 about 5000 per-
sons. OF course. it is impossible to
say what proportion of the crowd
was influenced to come out by the
but it was undoubtedly
large. because the local papers had
boosted the thing conscientiously for
several weeks. The crowd of the sur
rounding country was brought here
largely by the home papers.
The point we wish TO make Is
this: Mr.. Merchant, advertise your

why hundreds OF men with splendid
records as assistants to the head OF
the firm, fail utterly In business
when. as it sometimes happens they
branch out for themselves. 1t is not
lack of executive ability, execution
they have down to science. II Is
more lack of development OF the
initiative instinct: lack OF the broad
er outlook over business that they
have been too busy carrying out
other mems ideas, to develop. Had
/ they started in business for them
selves even in the smallest kind of
way when they first entered COM
mercial life. and even though they
might have recorded failure after
failure. each one of these would
simply have broadened their minds,
and eventually they would have won.
In a secondary place their mental
faculties are blunted rather than
sharpened and the longer they re-
main in the service of others for the
sake OF learning the business. with
the intention of launching out for
themselves the greater they multiply
their chances of failure.
These are not only psychological
facts, but they are cold blooded busi-
ness facts that we believe statistics
will bear us out in.
But we want to see these men
given credit for their work. They
are fully as useful 10 society as the
man in the spotlight at all times.
Without these men business would
likely be in a panic much OF the time
and many a firm with good old
wall.
They represent also the very best
type of American citizenship. They
are the men that in our smaller
cities,-and larger ones too-build
neat and substantial homes at from
$4,000 to $1,000 in value. and de-
vote life time of work and energy
to beautify these. They are the men
thdt give CIT. OF COIuIuuultA its
real back bone. Their income is us
ually a steady one, and the merchant
can depend upon his pay once a
month, if not every day. They are
not the kind that run grocery bills
of from $500 to $1,000 and compel
the grocer to borrow money at high |
rates of interest to tide him over
difficulties.
Then why not bring this man out /,
into the spotlight once in while? |
Why not have him join the CONNER
cial clubs or other organizations |
where great things are talked over |
and never done? Why not let him |
know that we appreciate him, and |
know blamed we'll that without him
we might run as wild in a business |
way as an engine without a gover-
nor?

LET THEM BORROW

Members OF the city council are
rather down in the dumps over the
lack of funds for the proper fitting
up and equipping of the new fire
house, connected with the city hall.
Various suggestions have been made
for the temporary tiding over of the
sortage, but thus far no action has
been taken. 1t is believed that the
money could be borrowed from pri-
vate citizens until another tax levy
is made, and it is not impossible that
certain patriotic citizens have al
ready offered the councilmen this
kind OF aid
So far as we can see this would
be about the most satisfactory way
out of it. There is sometimes ten
dency to hamper rather than to as
sist the council in doing its very
best for the city, the fact being often
lost sight OF that the men compos-
ing the council are ordinary business
men the same as the rest of us and
that they are giving up great deal
of their own time, working for the
public, for which they receive not
one cent OF pay. If there is a chance
to help them bit with actual work
suggestions, or in financial matters,
1t is as much the duty of the absolu-
tely private citizen to do so, as it
= the duty Of the councilmen to do
their very best, SO long as they are
in office.
We need the equipment for the
fire house. That which has been
fairly good heretofore is no longer
good enough. Year by year the
property in the city is becoming
more valuable. The burning of just
one medium priced home, or one Of
the poorest stores in the city, would
in few minutes destroy more prop
erty than the loan contemplated
would amount to. We need the bet

THE SECOND IN COMMAND

Our memory is under the impress
sion that one of the popular plays
II couple of seasons ago was cal
led THE Second in Command" or
course the play was military, love
drama. and the only thing of impor-
tance to this discussion is the name.
The parsonage that we have in
mind. is the second in command in
every day business life. the fellow
that actually does the work, after
the first in command has laid it out
for him-possibly some would put IT
the man who does the work on top OF
the wall after the boss has carried
the hod of brick and mortar to him.
But however you may look at him.
we want to give this man bit of
the credit and recognition that he
deserves.
II is the man who always stands
between the irate customer with
kick. and the private office of the
head man, and acts as buffer or
bumper between the two, taking all
the kicks for the firm, and getting
but few OF the good things; it is
the man that you see behind the
wirework in the bank, and who at
best has time only to give you
quick glimpse, before again he bends
over the heavy ledger, that may
mean the loss or safety of your de-
posit; 1t is the man who always
stays at home to look after the busi-
ness while the boss attends trade
conventions, makes speeches on
how to do things-often written by
the second in Communicating his
name in the papers and otherwise
plays the roll of prominent citizen.
1t is this man, in any of his myriad
forms or places that We want to say
good word for.
We wonder sometimes how long
his patience will last and he will be
content to be the second in COM
mand. If he has held that position
long chances are that he will never
make the last step. His long train
ing as detail man has virtually un-
fitted him for the not more difficult,
and much more pleasant task of
planning the big things. That is

THE PHARIsEE'S PRAYER

I'VE thank Thee, Lord, that We
are not as other men.
Passing down through the cor
ridors oil time rh4s has been recog-
nized as the prayer OF extreme ego
tism for nineteen hundred years.
Yet. this Monday following the cir
Gus. the independence day celebra-
tion and the Sabbath. We feel con-
strained to repeat the esotism OF
nineteen centuries, and render
thanks that we are not as other COM
munities. For, though thousands of
strangers were with us Friday and
Saturday, and many hundreds linger-
ed over Sunday there were no fights,
no murders, no holdups, no burglar
les, and only one lone drunk within
the confines OF Greeley village.
What other city of equal size can
boast a circus, a celebration and
Sabbath in three consecutive days
with an equally good record for law
and order? Not many. The absence
OF saloons, gambling and bootlegging
joints will account for much OF it,
but not all. 1t must be due in a
large measure to the general good
character of the people who go to
make up the population OF our city
and county.
Therefore We, along with other
Greeley citizens feel that We are not
SO egotistic after all, when we rem
der thanks that we are not as some
other towns.

THE ART OF sELF-CONTRoL

Weld county is to have another
sensational murder trial. The time
is not far distant when the commu-
nifty could boast. and was boasting
that there had not been a murder in
the county for over decade. That
time, alas, has passed and for the
past two or three years murder has
been almost an epidemic. We can
not believe that the character of our
people is changing for the worse.
and we know that it is not as
whole. We should rather say that
our people are growing better right
along, in spite of considerable evil
dence to the contrary. 1t is simply
the brute or animal nature Of the
savage that probably exists in Rres'
er or lesser degree in all of us, mat
is breaking out in individual cases.
In some of us the veneer OF civiliza-
tion has been laid on thick enough to
retain the volcanic eruptions Of pas
sions within US. In others, the coat
ing is all too thin and the fires of
hatred break out in terrible fury.
spreading tragedy and destruction
all about. The triumph for one in
stant of the baser nature of man,
over the better will blight forever
several lives.
True, such tragedies nearly al
ways find their breeding places In
ignorance, shiftlessness and indeffer-
ence to the nobler purposes Of life.
Nevertheless, there is none of us 20
strong and steadfast in righteousness
that he should not be constantly ON
his guard against the unknown in
his nature. We know our own
strength only as far as 1t has act
ually been tested. We know that our
better natures have so far kept US
out OF trouble, but it is not fair to
that better nature to tax it with the
enire responsibility of keeping us
safe. We are free moral agents
and must to large extent
work out or own destiny.
The first step in this direct
| ion is thorough understanding of
our own individual natures, in 90 far
as we are capable of understanding
| ourselves Next encourage the good
and weed out the bad in ourselves,
cAnItiy DIS we WOulu IN Lne cuIItva-
tion of field or garden. Spread on
the veneer of civilization thicker all
the time. When we feel we have
thoroughly mastered ourselves, then
we are capable of beginning to help
others in the same way. Whether
that aid shall be by gentle persuas-
ion or force circumstances must de-
termine. But we must know that it
is not blind leading blind.
The tragedies that are shocking
us all too often will diminish in
numbers and will again increase SO
long as blind passion can dominate
an individual against gentle self
control. 1t is possible that the trag-
edy itself, or the punishment that
follows may awaken the inner or
better natures of other individuals to
consciousness of their own danger
and thus. after all, prove blessing
In disguise. We hope, at least that
the morale Of our community NAV
not be lowered by the dark spots
That appear so often upon It's sur
! face OF late.

WATCHES TO MATCH GOWNS
ARE FASHIONABLE AT PRESENT
The New Watch Balls Worn With Princess or Empire Dresses
This Small Timepiece Is Little Larger Than q Pecan and
Is Studded With Precious Stones---Hsld in Place
by Chain Set With Jewels.

Eayly in the seventeenth century the
5eaus and bellies OF the great courts OF
Europe possessed watches which In
beauty of workmanship were scarcely
inferior to those of today, while for
originality of design there were
watches that were carried by the diff
ferent Louis Of the French court and
during the rule OF the empire that have
seldom been equaied since, says the
New York Times. To be sure, they
were principally the freak watches
upon which so much beauty of design
and elaborateness of detail were ex-
pended, and to hide a tiny watch per-
feet in mechanism beneath the folded
wings OF a scintillating diamond fly or
sapphire beetle was a triumph OF the
watchmaker's art. .
In this century, with the practical
mind supreme In every branch of sci
ence, literature, and art, there is little,
IL any, time expended upon the useless,
but where the beautiful and the prac-
teal can be combined, then, and then
only, is the best talent called forth.
The watches that are fashionable at
the present moment, therefore, 1t can
be easily seen, are designed, first OF ali,
with the idea of being useful n are
made Just as exquisite and perfect as 1t
is possible for the designer to evolve.
The tiny so-called French watches,
for example,, that are no larger than y
25 cent piece, are made so as to fit
comfortably in a tightly draped belt or
Rirdle. Many OF these watches are OF
cbasted gold, but the newer ones are of
enamel of a most artistic design and of
a color to match the gown with which
they are worn. Others, of the same
size and shape, are studded with dia-
monds, rubies or sapphires, while the
a G is of charming design In engraved
gold and enamel. Chasted gold with the
initials or monogram of h owner in
the center OF the back makes 1t most
attractive, the letters being either
raised or set down in the gold, the jew
els being then necessarily very small
Fascinating Watch Balls.
For q princess or empire gown the
new ball watches hung about the neck
on a. short chain are singularly appro-
priate. With an elaborate reception
gown a plain Jewel watch chain with
the watch inside the belt looks too emil
nently practical, so when h one-piece
princess gown came into favor these
watches were evolved by some clever
artist. This small timepiece, which Is
but little larger than a pecan nut,
hangs from a chain set with jewels and
engraved to coincide with the watch IT.

after a moment. "Mr. Godfrey, I will
tell you something, of which I had de-

the house that evening, he deliberately
broke an appointment he had made
with mean appointment which he

provoked Mr.. Tremaine to an intem-
