THEY HAD A JOLLY TIME.

Last evening, a jolly crowd of
young people held a beefstake fry
over on the Gunnison, near the ice
houses. They left town about 8
O'Clock in the evening and made
camp about 10 O'Clock when a large
fire was built and the beefsteak and
Welsh Rarebit and many other app
tizing eatables were cooked and
eaten with rare relish. Ed Ryan
acted as toastmaster and Sandford
Hoodenpyle and Richard Gex deliv-
cred short addresses which were
thoroughly enjoyed. The merry party
returned to the city about midnight
and feel that the rare treat last night
more than makes up for the tired
feeling today and the colds contracted
from sitting on the damp ground.
Those present were: Misses Helen
Newton, Mary Byers, Alice Smith.
Helen Bunting, Avis Hardy. Agnes
Cosgrove. Carrie Hoodenpyle, Messrs.
Sill Bernard, Ed Ryan, Sandfori
Hoodenpyle, Chas. Day, Richmond

that the prospects are very good for
a victory. Both games may be seen

Delta furnishes the crowd she has
in past years. there will be large

WILL BE CRITICAL GAME.

The foot ball game next Saturday
between the Tigers and the Delta
High School is one of the most criti-
cal games of the season. II Grand
Junction wins this, there is but lit
tie doubt that she will win the cham
pionship.
Grand Junction and Delta have
long been bitter rivals in an athletic
way, and both teams put up a harder
fight when lined up against each 9th =
er than at any other time of the sea-
son.
Howard. the full back on the Delta
team last year and the man who
made the long, sensational run which
proved fatal to Grand functions as
pirations, is still in the game and is
playing half this year.
Besides Howard, their star player.

their expectations. it was not a hard

they take back to Delta will not be
encouraging. but it will cause them
to practice harder
Delta. not having so high a stand

deed, some of them were continually
engaged either at their lessons or
dancing school or in some amusement
with their companions. His wife was
devoted to him, but they had no plan
ming to do for themselves or their chill
dren. The income was fixed, and it was
easy to lay out it's expenditure. 1t was
not so easy to live within It. Oldfield
found his evenings dull. As for the
days. he found that his aesthetic tastes
had lain dormant 80 long that they
ceased to respond to works Of art. He
did not enjoy leisure because life was
Ill leisure. There was no contrast with
work to make leisure enjoyable.
He had secured good place for his
porter and one day went to see him at
bis home. He found him smoking his
pipe and reading a newspaper. His
children were all earning something
and resting from the days work at
home. Collins did not look bored. On
the contrary, he looked comfortable.
Oldfeld died in three years after at
tanning independence. His doctor said
that II he had remained in business he
would have been living yet.

Collins position, but he wished that he
had the time the porter spent with his
family to be with his own wife and
children.
Why could not he, who had every ad-
vantage of Collins. be able to do
what Collins could do? Oldfield made
from $4,000 to $4,000 a year, while
the porter made but 5000. The porter
was happier in his work, for he was
constantly singing as he rolled about
his heavy truck, aud when he went
home he was happier still. Strange,
wasn't it?
Oldf1eld calculated that he had half
the fortune he had fixed as his limit
before retiring. II he could live on q
thousand year for few years, he
could save the balance. But could he
live on that amount? His family had
a certain station to keep up. They
must all dress we'll, and the children
must 60 to the best schools. The pres
ent expenditures were at the rate of
$4,000 year. To come down to
$1,000 twice what his porter received)
would be terrible strain on himself,
his wife and his children. 1t would be
impracticable. However, he went home
and talked about it to his wife. She
had 90 longed to have him with her
and their children that she favored
making the attempt
After much talking and planning
they gave up their house in town and
took cottage In the country. Old6eld
fitted up room at the store, for he
was obliged to remain at work nights,
and It required too much time to 70
back and forth. For five years he saw
less Of his family than before, some
times not sleeping under the same roof
with them for weeks. Living upon
$1,000 year was a great discomfort
to him and to his wife, for they had
been used to much more The chill
dren, who were young when the change
came, soon got used to it and were as
happy as before.
At the end Of the five years a heavy
loss was sustained in the business, and
it was five years more before John Old
field invested 100000 in bonds and
closed out his business. He did so only
because he was determined to adhere
to his plan, for he felt that to do as he
wished would require double the In
come he possessed.
He removed his family to the city
and divided his time between the libra
ries, picture galleries, musical gather
ings and his home. Every evening he
spent at home, though his children had
grown too old to rolnp and had formed

Normal Schools.

Normal schools originated in Ger.
many and were for a considerable pe-
riod confined to that country. The
first was organized at Stettin, in Prus-
sia, in 1895; the next by Frederick the
Great at Berlin in 174S; another was
opened in Hanover in 1857, and others
followed in various parts of Germany.
The first school for the instruction of
teachers In France was established in
1910. the first in Holland in 1916 and
In England in 1880. The first normal
school in the United States was opened
in 1S39-New York American.

He Reached His Goal.
fOriginal,1

(Original.l
John Oldfield was a business man
and nothing else, for the reason that
there are few men who have the fac
ulty Of doing more than one thing at
time successfully. He was an edu-
Gated man with refined and intellec-
tual tastes. He had inherited bust
ness from his father which took every
moment Of his time from Z o'clock in
the morning till late at night.
Oldfield laid out the following course
for himself: He would remain "at the
grindstone" till he had accumulated
100000. This he would invest in
bonds paying 5 per cent interest, or
$1,000 a year. Then he would proceed
to enjoy himself. First. be would spend
a great deal Of time with his wife and
children, whom while business man
he never saw except at rare intervals;
second, he would cultivate his tastes,
read, listen to music and look at works
Of art.
Employed at Oldfeld's warehouse
was 4 porter named Collins. He, like
his employer. had wife and children:
but. unlike his employer. on going
home at night he left his work behind
him. At 6 o'clock in the evening he
went home. Be it summer or winter.
his youngest child, a boy Of three,
would come running to meet him, and
his wife stood ready at the door to
give him the accustomed kiss. The
husband got good wages, and the wife
was q frugal woman; therefore they
had all they required in their humble
station and nothing to worry about.
One evening Oldfeld, wishing to see
his porter about some goods that
needed to be shipped by an early train
in the morning, went to his house. He
found Collins on all fours on the aoor,
riding his children on his back. while
the wife was sitting before a CON-
Portable fire darning stockings and
laughing at them. Oldfeld gave his in
structions and went away. It was the
busy season. and he needed the even
ing hours to midnight to get through
his days duties. so he went back to his
Office. AS he worked he thought of his
porter playing with his children. Col
Mns was the man of all others in his
employ whom he had never envied, for
he was the lowest of the lot in the
social scale. He did not envy him now,
for he would not like to descend to

The Mockinq Bird.

Of song birds the mocking bird is
easily king. The skylark and nightin-
gale deserve all Of the praise that the
poets have given them. They are
sweet songsters indeed. but when it
comes to contest with the mocking
bird their famed laurels wither away,
In its variety range, volume and sweet
ness the song of the mocking bird has
no equal in the feathercd kingdom. TO
hear the failing song" Of the mockins
bird on moonlight night in June is
to hear that which never yet came from

Mans Superioritv.,

One sees many curious phases of hu.
man nature in the safe deposit vaults
OF banking institution. from the wo-
men who never know where their keys
are to the man who is not quite certain
that he has locked his box and returns
to the vault three or four times to
make sure. But in a recent experience
with a new customer to whom was
renting a box the climax was reached,
handed him the keys and said:
Now. here are two keys Separate
them so that If you lose one you will
have the other to admit you"
He quickly replied:
Every we'll. I will put one on my key
ring and lock the other up in my box"

A Last Resort.

Some days ago young woman called
at the house of prominent doctor and
after discoursing on all the topics Of
interest Of the day settled down to tell
him her ailments. Among other things
she said that she was greatly troubled
by Sinking feeling"
The doctor prepared little bottle Of
medicine and gave 1t to her, with mi
mute directions as to how it should be
taken. The woman began to talk, but
at length, after many vain efforts on
his part to get rid of her, made for the
door: She had just opened it when she
turned and said:
"Oh, doctor. what shall l do II this
medicine does not cure me?"
Take the cork" he retorted. 'They
say that's good for sinking feeling"
