"This is the most powerful
force in America today. It is
more powerful than the pluto
Gratis millions, it's more powerful
than the hosts Of evil. The man
who stays away from the polls be-
cause he thinks it is no use to vote
because the powers Of corruption
will win anyhow, does not meas
ure up to the standard OF a true
patriot. He does not pay the law
full tribute Of patriotism. It is
every citizens duty to 60 to the
polls and vote his convictions. II
the people do not say what the
government shall be they have no
right to complain what the gov
ernment is.
"Still another way to pay the
tribute of patriotism is to stand
by the fiag-to honor Old Glory.
In late years noxious and bitter
weed has sprung up in the gar
dens of our citizenship. 1t is the
cynicism that SCOTS at all patri-
otic speaking and demonstration,
which it frivoloisly calls making
the eagle scream.
''The men who scoff at a warm
and demonstrative love for the
flag are mostly the men against
whom the United States govern
ment had to pass law forbidding
the desecration of that beautiful,
blood-stained. star-spangled stan
dard of our fathers with vulgar
and unsightly advertisements.
"Love for the flag is what has
placed America where she is to-
day as the eldest born of Free
dom.
Glove for the flag is what will
preserve us as a nation"
In referring to the school teach
ers and their poor stipends, Mr..
Foote made an eloquent. powerful
appeal, an appeal from the heart,
for he said, "I speak not from
theory but from experience"
Our tribute to that body polite
known as society, he said, is
due largely to education.
lone of the glories of this
country is its public school sys-
TEN. We have colleges in this
country almost as old as the
country itself.
"There are more martyrs to du-
ty, hard work and poor pay in the
teaching profession than in any
other on earth today. 1t is the
hardest kind of work. And when
| tell you this, I am not talking
from theory but from experience.
You pay more to your carpenters
and your painters than you do to
your teachers. They should be
paid enough to enable them to
have six weeks rest after the
term is ended, and another six
weeks in which to catch up with
the ever-changing textbook, which
is the result of the glib agent Of
the publishing company
! Rev. Foote then dwelt upon the
4 necessity of mankind's duty to
God which he said is equally nee
essary, and that the Sunday
schools should be supported a.
well as the day schools. And the
reason for this he declared is be-
cause "God is the author OF all
Caesars. He urged upon hib
hearers, and particularly the
graduating class, the necessity for
pure living, and for them to love
their fellow men. "ChristiGnity

From Mondays Daily Post.
Ringing strong and clear, with
the imperative message of Glove
your God, your country and your
fellow men;" impressing upon the
minds of the graduating class of
the Glenwood Springs high school
the urgent necessity of these fun
darhehtdi things, Rev. Greer Foote
yesterday morning delivered the
baccalaureate sermon before a
crowd that well filed the opera
house. 1t was a message, not
only to the young men and wo-
men, but to every one of his hear
ers. Strong, forceful, eloquent, it
made a deep impression, and con
gratulations were showered upon
him at the close of the services.
The services began at II O'Clock
with selection by the quartet Of
the Methodist church. composed
Of Messfs. Hubbard, Dickson,
French and Mayes, who were seat
ed on the stage, as were also the
participating clergymen, the Reys.
Dubois, Foote and Harbert. The
singing Of the male quartet was
excellent, and was followed by
scripture lesson, which was read
by the Rev. Dubois. Rev. Har-
bert then delivered an eloquent
prayer.
"Face to Face" by John Cas-
sady was the next number on tn,
rroErAfA, and one that was great
ly enjoyed. His voice, with its
full, round tones, completely filled
the building, and the song was
given with great expression and
sympathy. Wide in range, and
clear, every note rang true, and
when he had finished there was a
moment Of hushed silence. His
accdhpahfst, Miss Donna Parlee,
at ths piano. Allied her part credit
ably and well.
Rev. Foote then delivered the
baccafadreate sermon. He took
for HIS text, Matt. 90 :21-"Ren.
der therefore unto Caesar the
things which are Caesars, and
unto God the things that arc
Gods" and said in part.
Render unto Caesar the
thinrs which are Csesar's.' That
is advice which is as good for
these times and for us as it was
good for those times and the Jews
Every man should pay tribute to
CaesAr.
"Our Caesars are the institu-
tions which give us as people
certain advantages in life. Insti-
tutidns inst are the soul Of Amer
leans glory, even as Caesar was
the soul of R0me's greatness. And
the fifst Of these institutions is
our etthtry.
"Every man, woman and child
should pay to his Caesar the trib
ute Of patriotism. One of the best
ways to pay the tribute of patriot
ism h "a pay taxes. To not pay
Chem is just as bad and disreputa

ASPEN WINS
Big TRACK MEET
Scores saty.Eisllt Points.
eIenWood Cts Socoad md
Grand Junction Third
LEApvALE NOT ENTERED

From Mondays Daily Post.
Glenwood has great cause for
rejoicing, even if she was defeat
ed, for our boys came to the
front this year as never before,
and the careful training in athlet-
les the past year under adverse
conditions had its effect in this
years contest, and the showing
made will serve to encourage the
boys and act as a stimulus to
greater eXertions and more care
ful and systematic work for an
other year.
Aspen won the track meet of
the western slope Saturday after
noon by scoring 6S points, while
Glenwood got second with AZ and
Grand Junction came in third
with 20.
In the individuals Robinson of
Aspen won, with Robertson of
Glenwood close second. Robin
son got 10 points, while Robertson
gave him a hard run, piling up
lS!.
The track was heavy, and the
arrangements for policing the
grounds might have been far bet
ter. for in many instances those
in the grand stand were unable to
see the participants in the various
events because Of the crowds that
were permitted to obstruct the
view. No blame is attached to
any one person-it was simply a
lack of system.
Leadville refused to enter the
meet, claiming professionalism
against Robinson and Galloway of
Aspen. The committee meeting,
held in the morning, at which
representatives of all the schools
were present, decide | this matter
favorable to Aspen.

MANY WERE
IN COURT

There was an exceedingly and un-
usually busy session of the police
court this morning. Judge Hill had
his hands full for a time.
1t seems that last night there was
big row on down at one of the
houses of unsavory reputation.
Claude Boyer and a number of other
fellows whose names were not
learned were mixed up in the row.
Only Boyer got arrested last night.
He was in the prisoners dock this
morning and plead guilty to the
charge of being drunk and disorder
ly. He was assessed a fine of $40
and costs, and Immediately paid up
Boyer at once swore out a war
rant against four men whom he
claims were mixed up in the fight
and were more to blame for the dis
turbance than he. These men will
be arrested this afternoon and ar
raigned for trial.
Two Italians-Joe Perrier and Pc
ter Catalina-were up this morning
for engaging in fight in front of
saloon. Each man plead guilty,
and was fined $5 and costs. They
paid up and were released
One or two vagabonds and a plain
drunk or two completed the cast
that this morning rendered the per-
formance in police court.

SHEEP NUMBERING 100000
HEAD TO BE SHEARED

Modena. Utah. March 2.-Sheep-
shearing is to begin here on April 8.
Approximately 100000 head have
been booked already. which sur
passes all previous records. If the
railroad officials see fit to improve
the facilities for watering at this
point it is believed that a great many
flocks that have been shearing at
Rio Grande Western points would
Craze toward this place and shear
here. This would make Modena the
greatest shearing and wool point in
the southwest.
During the past two weeks the
precipitation of snow in the noun
tains has been very heavy. Two feet
on the level was reached at Stateline
and Gold Springs. The warm wea-
ther that has set in now, should it
prove unbroken for week, is bound
to result in much water reaching the
desert and cause heavy washouts to
both railroads and stage roads.
