The Glenwood post., 1914-08-22

Gus part Of Gleauoed Springs, and not
be giving out the impression that Glen
wood vas going to the dogs, and that
there was aethisg doing or going "a
that vas worth while. Why not take
the inspiration that Mr. Galloway gives,
snd make this city world famous - .
Honeymoon townl 1t could b
done, and it would be no time until
happy couples young and old, from the
ends Of the world would be coming to
spend the happiest time Of . humans
being-(we take this from observa--
considers the resources, the climate
and all that is to be had around here,
doesn t it seem queer and beyond rea-
son that there should be 20 many
"knockers, ever ready to say an i'll
word, or have "knock' for every
thing >and anything that might be Of
help to the welfare of GlenwOol
Springs, and truly it is shame-a
great rbame to have it 70.
Here is wishing Mr.. Galloway y
chance to come Out himself s"nia OF
t:.tse days, and to be . real "hcney.
mooas. > too. Like Thousands Of others
when he lands into this little oL-.., la
ihe Gecr: uf the Rockies, he viii. a.. .,:.-
vineed ard will understand why tho
most of US think there is no place on
earth, Ike dear old Glenwood Springs
TAsrs has bssa hardly any limit to
the things that have gone by parcel
post in the way Of shapes and contents.
The most interesting parcel 50 far, to
our notion, was little box, containing
. live queen bee that had been ssss
from Ohio to one Of our patrons Oh ths
route. The queen bee was quite slive,
and proved the fact by keeping up .
continued buzsing and making lot Of
noise for such . little thing. To
give the imprisoned little queen 9
chance to breathe and not smother, .
fine screen was provided, placed over
IN opening ON each end Of the wooden
beg shs eane in, snd no doubt her lady
ship was - coy and snug as though
she we're travelling in through limited
sueA - night bs used by those Who
have learned the secret Of . show to cor
raj the saxtwhssls, And keep then frea
going astray. IL
"Hsv Is the w.s .ewsi" asked
Henry ". Brown, whom he was inform
cd that short help on the Post sts6,
made it impossible for our patrons .
get their Post last Saturday, naturally
Henry was stumped for news without
his Post" and it was up to US to give
him a general outline of the war dope.
When We concluded our dope, by re-
marking that the way things looked,
there would not be any sauer kraut fans
left to consume this delicious delicaacy
by next fall, if the report of the Ger
mans being dispatched by the Be giars
was half ways true. OF course this
would mean that the vast cabbage pat
ches Of America would have To
suffer for want of consumers, but Mr..
Brown showed his optimistic way OF
thinking, by informing us, that he
guessed he could get rid of all his prom
ising cabbage, as long - the section
men on the Colorado Midland near his
way, took to sauer KRAFT - they did
in the past aad n long - they did not
get the war fever, and want to ~
bsek for the grand melee that is now
causing the ink trust 20 think about
raising the price Of red ink.
Surely the old dayi of the west are
going fast. A few years ago, it would
have been doubtful il . printer in the
west, could have been found with nerve
enough to print . circular with the
heading, "Attsntion Fsrmers, ,''-as
appears ON circulars gotten out, and
tackled along conspicuous places on the
r. F. D. No indeed, . printer Of long
ago would have changed the copy to
read, "Attentiea Raaehers"; but
alss, ths wssly wsst aas gons, no lsag-
er does the proud owner Il . hundfsd
and sixty acre homestead, even though
it produces nothing bat sage brush
and prairie dogs, refer TO his abode, ~
"ranch,' when he writes heae to his
folks, not an more, he il nore apt to
mention his place as "farm''-vefily
tie west that was loved by The type Of
mon like Brid9er or Carson has go.e -
thing Of the yesterdays. No bettef
proof than the fact that ranches are
NO longer ranches, but @fsrms!"
