ASKS FUNDS FOR
HEALTH FARM
ACTIVE CAMPAIGN STARTED BY
THE YOUNG MEMS CHRIS
TIAN ASSOCIATION.
HoPETo RAISE $4,000
LARGER QUARTERS ARE NEEDED
AND MONEY HAS COME IN
SLOWLY.

Denyer.-An energetic campaign is
about to be started by directors of the
Y. NJ. G. A. in order to raise funds for
the health farm located at Edgewater.
The hope of the directors is that they
may raise $4,000 or $4,000 for the
furtherance of the work at the FARM
Larger quarters are needed, as many
of the most deserving young men are
unable to find accommodations there.
At the present time there are thirty
three men located at the farm. The ca
pacity is limited to fifty persons. In
winter there are usually several va
cancies, but in the summer hundreds
are turned away. The money raising
campaign is to be undertaken in Colo
RADIO first and then in the East. Some
of the wealthiest philanthropists have
either refused to aid in the work or
have put off making their donations
until later date. Although rebuffed
for the present the Y. M. c. A. direc-
tors declare they will not give up but
will keep at it until they raise all the
money needed to carry on the work
successfully.
The Y. M. c. A. health farm Is for
INDECENT young men consumptives. A
small charge is made, but the rates are
so low and the terms of payment
SO easy that even the poorest young
man can afford to live at the farm.
Those who are totally without funds
are taken care OF without charge and
render small services in exchange for
their board and room. Tents and cot
tages are used in housing the sick men.
Medical attention is given the patients
without charge. The medical staff is
headed by DIR. Candy. well known Y.
NJ c. A. worker.

Terrible snowsIlde Experience.

Denver.-A Crested Butte dis
patch says: Escaping one snowslide
to be caught in another which buried
him and swept his four horses to their
death in the gulch, Andrew Mosher
was rescued from death by his dog,
only to be caught by third slide and
buried second time several feet deep
under the white terror of the noun
tains and was again dug out by his
faithful dog.
Mosher and w. F. Stockman start
ed from Gothic with supplies for the
Mountain King mine, six miles distant.
They had gone four miles when the
first slide swept over the trail SO close
that they were showered with white
spray and fragments of debris which
swirled under the cliff that protected
them. Stockman turned back but Mo
sher continued toward the mine and
was caught by the other two slides. He
was severely injured, but managed to
reach the mine.
Stockman was found frozen nearly
to death and injured by his battle with
the elements. Both men were out
three nights, and their escape from
death is considered most remarkable.

The awakening of China must now
be accepted as an assured and indeed
a partially accomplished fact. 1t diff.
fers widely in many respects from the
awakening of Japan, partly because of
the difference in the manner and cir
cumstances OF its achievement and
partly because of the radical difference
in the genius of the people. But it is
no less real and is likely to prove no
less significant to the world. We may
date it from the time of the war be-
tween Russia and Japan. and may
credit it largely to that war as one of
its unintended and perhaps unexpect-
ed results. There had been sporadic
symptoms of unrest and uprising in
China before that, but since then the
movement has proceeded at rate
really startling to those who have ina
gtned the Orient to be necessarily and
invariably conservative and slow.

Chicago contains at least twelve
women who believe that they have
model husbands, and they do not use
the term model as meaning a small
imitation of the real thing. They had
an exhibition the other day at which
the husbands proved their right to the
title. The final and supreme test was
given when the men were called upon
to fasten a 24-button embroidered
shirt-waist; the waist was decorously
put on a wooden dummy, so that the
men might in no way be embarrassed.
Two Of the husbands fastened the
waist in two minutes and seven sec
onds without pulling of a single but
ton or tearing any of the embroidery.
They will have to enter into a subse-
