WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

What would you you a merchant and found that
your customers who had you asked for
spending their cash-when they have iesewhere
Would you continue smile pleasantly when those
again credit would you politely decline
any further credit? You figure that yourself
but just the situation that Avada merchants having
today and unless change takes place the credit system
will be off and those who have been the habit of allowing
grocer other merchants carry along
indefinitely will find themselves up against stiff game. During
the past week has been discovered that large grocery house
Denver had six working in Arvada and
whole load groceries delivered Arvada
people D. Many the people who ordered these goods
the local merchants large bills and the merchants
upn about seriously considering the plan of cutting
off the credit-whch seems only fair proposition.
eadit system the bane the local merchants cxs
tence especially when is handy for people Denver
and they feel that they adopt method of protection
1t is unfortunate that there is not loyalty to the home
existing here Arvada because they
live of and believe making desperate effort to
stocks Of goods and make their prices reasonable
There question but that if the cash that goes the lap
Denver from the people who live vada and who only live
here property perhaps have business interests
here would spend that cash here home it would enable the
carry better goods and in larger quantities and
also sell in close competition with Denver.
Now there why the Golden Rule should not be

phases life it important that those who this
city blossom bloom like the rose should pause and
ponder before they outside to spend single dollar Cast
your upon and it will you again This
saying but formed that contained
greater truth when applied to business principles.
So when you find need anything ask the question first

Arvada Wins Again.

Arvada's baseball nine and
their ardent admirers are getting
real "chesty" over the series OF
victories they have to their cred

foreseen reverses before the sea-

they will be weeping for more

The result of Sundays game

High School
Occasions Pride

and patrons of the Arvada High
school to swell with pride Thurs
day evening, when they sat and
listened to the commencement
exercises in the Baptist church.
A class of eight of Arvada' S
brightest youth occupied the cen
ter of the stage and rendered q
program that showed marked
ability and careful preparation.
They were Bernice J. Bishop,
Byron w. Strickland, Anna c..
Redstrom, Walter f. c. Olson,
Milton F. Nicholson, Thirza M.
Davis, aAnnabelle S. Smith,
Edith L. Champion. Space will
not permit a eulogy of all and it
would be unfair to mention one
without mentioning all. 1t will
suffice to say, that all delivered
their respective addresses in an
able manner and the subjects
selected furnished a wide scope
of information on scientific, COM
mercial and domestic economics.
The manner in which they
handled their subjects reflected
much credit upon their instruct
ors and much energy of them
selves. Many Of the subjects
were treated in an original man
ner, which only hard, studious
work could have accomplished,
One particularly strong point was
the almost perfect memory that
seemed to serve all, little or no
prompting being necessary. This
added force and impressiveness
to the points introduced.
The class choir did splendid
work under the leadership of
Prof. E. A. johnson, their in
structor.
The class address by Prof.
Herman Fleck, of the Golden
school of Mines was pleasing. He
took for his subject, Self Con-
troll" and drew his lesson largely
from the early scientists of Eng
land and of France, who were
not perturbed by the long seiges
of carnage, war and bloodshed,
but kept on making scientific re-
searches which have meant so
much to development which has
kept hand and hand with civiliza-
ton.
At the close of his remarks,
President H. j. Juchem in a few
we'll chosen words presented the
diplomas.
Invocation was made by Rev.
Horatio Beavis and the benedic-
tion pronounced by Rev. C. NJ.
Cooper.
The church was most tastily
decorated with lavendar and gold
the class colors, and the class
was surrounded by 4 bower Of
roses.
Invitations had been issued to
the extent of the seating capacity
and nearly all invitations were
presented at the door, all avail
able seats being full. The audi
ence was very responsive and
each speaker was Justify applaud
ed.
In this connection it would not
do to fail to mention the good
work done by Prof, o. B. Drake
and his corps of efficient instruc-
tors, the reflection of which was
mirrored in every phase of the
program.

it is the only place. He has a

PapaIn Of Great Value.

Papain, the most important chemi-
cal constituent Of the papya, is the
subject of a recent report by the Amer
lean consul at Colombo, Ceylon. Prob
ably few Of the travellers In tropical
countries who enjoy the melon-like
papaya realize that this fruit contains
one Of the most valuable digestives
known to medicine, though the natives
of the Orient. especially in southern
India and Ceylon, use the fruit almost
universally to preventdyspepsia. There
are several varieties of Garcia papaya,
and the papain obtained from the DIFF
ferent kinds varies accordingly, the
best being that derived from the male
trees of hybrid variety occurring in
Ceylon. The digestive and disintegrat-
ing properties of papain are shown by
the fact that the native cooks in Cey-
lon wrap tough meat in fresh papaya
leaves to make 1t tender. or apply q
small quantity Of the milky juice Of
the plant to the surface of the meat, or
put piece of the green fruit into the
raw Gully when the meat will not boil
soft. Papain is said to be capable of
digesting ten to twelve times its
weight of egg albumen at the tempera-
ture of the human body.-Scientifo

One of the most remarkable illustra-
tons in all history of the i'll effects of
the disappearance of forests may be
served in Palestine, says the Christian
Herald. In the days when Joshua
conquered the promised land Palestine
was a wonderfully fertile country, a
land flowing with milk and honey. The
Lebanon mountains were heavily
wooded, and a large population was
supported in comfort The general
devastation Of the forests brought
about, however, gradual deteriora-
ton of the country The hills of Cali
lee, which had long served as pasture
lands for large herds of cattle and
sheep. are now sterile. The Jordan
has become an Insignificant stream,
and several smaller rivers are now
completely dried up throughout the
greater part of the year. Some few
valleys in which fertile earth washed
down from the hills has been depos-
tied have retained their old fertility.
The land today supports only one
sixth che population Of the time Of
Solomon.

Clean air in the house is as much
necessity to health as clean water,
and, inasmuch as a considerable por-
ton of the air in the house rises from
the cellar, the cellar must be as clean
and pure as 1t is desired that the
house atmosphere shall be. In the alb
sence of any ventilating system win
dows and doors must do the work of
bringing in and letting out the air. The
impure air must escape to make room
for pure air. Open the windows at
the top as well at the bottom. the
warmer air at the top of the room will
thus pass out. Keep one window on
the top floor open little most of the
time to provide a general air-escape
for the whole house. When airing bed
rooms in the morning leave the cup
board door open. A sleeping room
used as q sitting roam during the day
must be given good airing before
bedtime. The bath room and the
kitchen need special ventilation, and
the living room must be well aired
the last thing at night, otherwise the
used-up air will make its way through
the house.
