he was out of work. The family
must be fed. The children must
have medicine. A home must be
provided.
And there was no money.
Then Stanley and Annie Sc
kora turned to the loan shark.
They did not know it was so easy
to obtain. Here was an end to
the difficulties. Deluded inno-
cents, they did not know that
their troubles had just began.
They borrowed $50 from the
Guarantee Loan Co., 10 months
ago. For this they signed papers
agreeing to pay back SIS in II
monthly payments at $625. This
was interest at the rate of so per
cent, but they knew nothing of
the intricacies of interests. And.
if they had, they needed the
money, and it was in their grasp.
Then Stanley and Annie and
their two babies lived at 2414
High street. But the strain Of
keeping up their monthly pay
ments to the Guarantee Loan Co.
was too much. They moved to
24449 N. Ashland, the home of
Stanley's mother. Then Stanley
got work-a day now and then!
Annie wanted home of her,
own again. They moved to 2518
N. Ashland, where they now live.
Annie was a desirable custom
er for the loan shark. She made
her payments promptly as a rule.
Once or twice she was tardv, and

EASTERN MEN IN CONTROL
OF THE MOFFAT ROAD.

Denver, Aug 1y.-As a result
"a conference held here between New
man Erb of New York and rep
resentatives of the nOteholders and
receivers of the Denver, Northwest
ern and Pacific railroad, known as
the Moffat road. an agreement was
reached by which Erb and his asso-
eiates acquire control of the prop
erty and Denver interests invest be
tween one and two million dollars
in the enterprise.
The intention of Mr.. Erb is to
build the line on to Salt Lake City.
New York noteholders have extend
ed the time on the notes and have
reached further agreements with Mr.
Erb. 1t is Erb's opinion that be
fore the transfer of ownership can
be made it will be necessary to have
the road go through formal receiv-

REV. GILL DISCUSSES LIQUORS.

Rev. Harley Gill, the talented
young minister who spoke at the
Baptist church Sunday afternoon,
said: The liquor traits is men
ace to the government of the re-
public. 1t has no economic value;
1t is a destroyer of life, property
and liberty"
He gave statistics to show that
every month It kills more men than
fell on the battle field of Gettys-
burg: every week more than perish
ed in the Titanic disaster. Every
year 1t destroys more property than
1t would take to build six Panama
canals.
In all other lines of manufacture
at least fifty per cent goes for pro-
duction and labor. while in brew
ing and distilling business only six
per cent of the retail price goes to
the farmer or laborer.
Mr.. Gill spoke with great force
and earnestness and those who did
not hear him missed an educational
treat.

THE BULL MOOSE,

In "The Wilderness Hunter writ
ten by Theodore Roosevelt, appears
the following description of the
bull moose, Of which we have heard
much recently:
Another noticeable characteristic
of the bull moose is his inordinate
and interchangeable selfishness. No
matter whether roaming the woods
in solitude. or tearing up the earth.
or coming headlong to the call, he is
thinking first, last and all the time
OF the safety of his own skin and the
fullness of his own stomach"
