The High School Record is one of.
if not the foremost institution Of our
school. yet all throughout last year not
a single number was issued. We marvel
at this unseeming negligence Yet
when we question for a reason for this
deplorable condition we find that it is
not indeed that Idaho" is degenerat-
ing into third rate High School, nor
that students Of journalistic competency
and of sufficient intellectual ability for
the publication of a school paper are
wanting. Neither is it because of lack
of school spirit and patriotism. We find
the difficulty to be financial one; we
find that the magazine in G4-05-0o and
OF was many times on the verge of col
lapse because Of non support We have
the statements Of our most eminent
business managers in former years,
Douglass KILN, Edwin w. Miller and
Paul B. Roberts, that the business in :
terests of our city were never willing
to support the paper with any degree
Of certainty. Our advertising solicit :
ors were invariably met with growl
or with the curt remark of 1--WE are
carrying to much advertising at pres
ent." This is not the right attitude to
take toward our school institutions and
every business man of Idaho Springs
is conscientiously aware of it. Now
this year we ARE going to have mag
izine- we will have the Record, and
we solicit and expect the support of
every business house in town. Not only
this but we want the subscriptions of
our townspeople to our publication and
we have to have them! To the merch ants
We have to say. Call our enterprise a
business proposition or call it charity
we care not for the name the students
know who supports their magizine and
they are only glad to give their patron
age to the firm which is ''only glad to
give its patronage to their pet institu-
ton. They hold that the Record is an
enterprise deserving of encouragement
and financial aid," and they are after
it. Will the people "stay with US, (" The

Contributions Should Help

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.-One sports
man at least is left in Great Britain.
Sir Thomas Upton yesterday cabled
the executive committee Of the Ame-i-
can Olympic reception that he was foE-
warding a check for $500 TO help de-
fray expenses. The barOnets cOntribu-
ton is not only extremely acceptable,
but tends 10 eradicate from the minds
OF the Americans the unjust treatment
afforded at the hands OF the British in
the London competitions. Sir Thomas
regretted that he would be unable to
attend the reception. but was unstinted
IN his praise OF the prOwcss Of the
Americans. His cablegram read:
''Win be delighted to be allowed to
help welcome home Americas young
athletes, who have so we'll and worthily
unheld the honor and glory Of the Stars
and Stripes. Better sportsmen never
crossed the ocean. Sorry 1 cannot be
with you. but you may put me down for
$500"
The generosity Of a disinterested Eng
Iishman, who probably feels that it is
up to him in a measure TO help repair
the injustice OF his cOuntrymen toward
the champion athletic team, should
prove a lesson to some Of this republics
financial kings. The call for financial
assistance is being met with tolerable
indifference. and the promoters Will hnd
