City School Work.

The News is highly in favor OF
the greatest kind of development
in all departments of schoolwork
and is always glad when an op-
portunity presents itself inorder
that it may say a good word for
or encourage the development of
the mental capacity of the young
man or young lady, the boy or
girl who is striving to tit them
selves for the battle of life.
There has been sent to this office
an article written by one of the
students in the public school
which we are glad to publish.
The subject of the article is
headed Ambition" and is as fol-
lows:
Ambition is an earger and
sometimes inOrdinate desire af-
ter some object such as honor,
superiority, fame and power.
In short it is a desire to distin-
guish ones self in some way.
Ambition is something by which
most men are affected though it
manifestS itself in very different
ways according to the character
in whom it is found.
There are some who denOunce
ambition as wholly bad and
something to be avoided by every
person but | think that we ought
to make distinction between
the true and the false ambition.
The desire for superiority is an
honorable motive if it leads to
honorable eXertion. | would
mention Napoleon as an example
of false ambition, selfish in it.
self. and which brought ruin
and misery to prosperous ma
tons. Again there are some who
are ambitious to dress better
than their neighborS and their
principal thoughts are conferred
upon the tie of their cravat or
the cut of their coat. if he be Il
young man, or upon the richness
and style of their dresses if they
belong to the opposite sex.
Some people devote half of their
time to their toilet and the other
half to displaying it on the
streets or in society. Now this
is Il very low form of ambition
and should not be INDUCED for
it is a waste of time which could
be much better employed.
True ambition is desire to eX-
eel in that which would be of
service to the human race. Ben
jamin Franklin is an example of
true ambition. He was induced
by honorable ambition to work
his way up to a high civil sta
ton as well as Il commanding pO-
sitiOn in the scientific world.
Columbus too, was in possession
of true ambition when he crossed
the Atlantic and served the
whole world by extending the
line of geographical knowledge.
The young men and boys Of
this generation should direct
their am bitiOn into worthy chan
nelS so that, even if they cannot
leave behind them Il great name,
they may at least lead useful
lives and when they come to die
have the satisfaction of thinking
that they have been of some
beneficial service to the human
race.

At last it looks - though the long
hoped for clear weather had arrived.
After . Ssnday Of severe storm,
which in the higher valleys became
winter snow, Monday morning broke
10 a mantle Of white over even the
plains about Gunnison. In the
vicinity of town, the snow quickly
melted, but higher up it did severe
damage 10 the grain crops. The
wet, clinging snow broke the barley
and oat stems, until fields looked as
though they had been rolled fiat. In
many instances it will be necessary
to NOW and rake the grain as hay is
harvested.
However, the skies cleared and
heavy frost that night seemed to
herald n different sort of weather.
The long delayed hay harvest is pro
ceeding with grim intent on the part
OF ranchmen to get as much hay
up as possible before heavy freezes
turn the hay brown. Near Ouray
the fall of snow went to eighteen
inches, while even at Vulcan in our
county foot fell. The plains cities
escaped the snow, but were drenched
once more with driving rains and
hail that seemed a blizzard.
