odds being something to marvel at. 1t
has only been during the past couple
Of month that he hae been confined to
his room most Of the time. The end
came peacefully and knowing his con.

Morris Block was born in Russia,
October 1875. and died in Hot Springs,
November 18th, 1913, aged thirty eight
years. In 1888 he came to this country
locating in Chicago and remained
there for two years. From Chicago he
moved to Denver where be remained
until nine years ago when he came to
this oity which has since been his
home. At the time of his arrival in
Hot Springs he was in very poor health
but seemed to improve after being here
for time. His condition however did
not deter him from entering into and
building up q big jewelry business.
About three years ago he secured an
assistant in the person of Joseph Fish.
man, Of Denver, who later became his
partner in this line.
"Mose" as he was Familiarity known,
was always building for the future and
two years ago conceived the idea of
erecting drst-clsss theatre and mov-
ing picture house which idea he put
into concrete form by starting the
actual erection of what is now the
Morris Grand, January 1911. In May
1912, he moved his jewelry stock from
the Hargens drug store to the Harlow
Block which he had purchased short
time previously. Since that time the
theatre has been under the manage.
ment Of Edward Shearer, another as.
sistant, and the jewelry line under the
care Of Mr.. Fishman, both however be-
ing directed by Mr. Block.
What he has done In the face of the
physical handicap is something that is
rarely equsled and there is no one that
could help but admire him. With his
passing Hot Springs loses one of her
best business men and one Of her most
enthusiastic supporters. His death
will cause many an expression of sor.

GOOD STATE FOREST Law.
South Dakota Has One of the Best Forest
Laws Enacted in the West.

South Dakota Has One of the Best Forest
Laws Enacted in the West.
Included in the statutes of South
Dakota is law Of great Importance to
the people of the west interested in the
protection of mountain watersheds.
This law, as enacted by the legislature
OF South Dakota, Is quoted as follows:
"Any person who shall cut any
timber upon any common school or
other lands within the state. shall pile
up and dispose of all brush and debris
In such manner and under such regu.
lattons as may be prescribed by the
board of school and public lands, and
shall commit no waste or unnecessary
damage to the standing trees and
young growth"
According to forestry officials, this is
one Of the best state forest laws ever
enacted in the west. and one that
should be included in the statutes of
every state in the Rocky Mountain
region. The requirement., by law, that
every citizen Of the state shall clean up
the area which he has cut over, by
burning or scattering the brush and
slsshings in a manner directed by
competsnt authorities, will be far
reaching in its efforts toward a salts.
factory solution of one of the most
important phases of the problem Of
fire protection thruout the great forest
covered areas upon which the people
of the west are absolutely dependent
for their water supplies.

Who Is Independent? Nobody.


We all have our moments OF imagin-
ing ourselves independent characters
We take pride in our independence and
are never as foolish as when trying to
prove how independent we are.
Every man, to begin with, is born
absolutely at the mercy of his ances-
try. You have not thing in you, and
you never will have a thing in you,
that you did not inherit from some one
of the thousands and thousands of
ancestors, all of whom are dimly stored
away in your complex makeup.
You may develop marvellously the
faculties which they gave you, but you
are dependent on those who brought
you into the world, and upon those
back of them.

him, has not a fragment or one chance

the achievements of a tenth-rate white

ence on your ancestors and after youth
you are dependent on your education.
Facts are your tools and you can't
work without them.
