There are those who regard the
Salvation Army in Greeley as some
what of burlesque upon religion.
Its methods are subject always to
criticism and there are some phases
OF its work which perhaps give cause
for this. But after all it must be
worth while. 1t was at the street
meeting early Thursday evening. The
editor of the Tribune paused a mo-

Mail carriers of Greeley need no

postoffice for their mail Following
is the regulation that has been adopt-
cd by the postoffice department:
Carriers are not required to de-

dogs are permitted to run at large.
Persons keeping such dogs must call
at the postoffice for their nail"

Home Industry in Colorado.

This state is gradually coming TO
the front as manufacturing center.
Raw materials are much cheaper ana
easier to obtain here than IN the
extreme eastern states. The home
market for machinery and articles OF
all kinds is good, partly due TO the
patriotic spirit of the citizens to heiP
home industry by their patronage.
1t is rather hard now for some or
the factories to obtain skilled labor at
this time but with our boys and girls
growing up and learning the different
trades this difficulty will be overcome.
People can live much cheaper and bet
ter in this state than they can in the
eastern states on account OF the lower
prices of farm and garden products.
BY the increased home demand for
these products prices Will of course
become higher This is where the
farmer gets his pay for patronlzing
home industries.
