HIGH SCHOOL ooann1Txz

At the meeting of the County High
school committee held here last Fri
day evening Ben Hadley of Distric;
81 and J. b. Shepherd of District 2j
were elected to fill the vacancies
caused by the expiration of the terms
of John Hopkins and Frank BOland.
The committee decided to abolish
the position of director of athletics
in the school and will place that work
under the direction of all the men
teachers in the high school.
All the high school teachers were
re-employed for the >19l4-1915 term.
Work is reported to be progressing
on the new high school building and
there seems no doubt but it will De

to leave that country at once.
1t appears that the institute in
whieh she was teaching was built by
the father of the late President Ma
dero of Mexico. 1t also appears that
General Villa has a very warm feeling
for the Maderos and has assured Mss
Hayes that he will do everything pos

Wohlfeld, the worlds greatest fancy

There is every reason to believe that
Glenwood Springs will be visited by
lovers of swimming from every section
of the state for it is doubtful if such
an array of worlds champions are
ever gathered together again in the
state for such an exhibition unless
they come here for another visit At
some later date. Glenwood should take
advantage of this opportunity by send
ing word in every way possible to peo-
pie Of other sections that they may
come and enjoy this rare treat. Com
ing as it does on the third day of our
strawberry festival, it means this citv
will be filled to overflowing by the
great throngs Of sightseers and pleas
ure seekers. While in the city the
swimmers will be guests at Hotel Col
orado, but their exhibition in the pool
will be free to all who care to come
and watch them.
The following will give an idea Of
the swimmers and their records:

ieved it the better part Of Wisden 70
buy the plant rather than to attempt
to build . new one. This meeting
brought out several peculiar things,
but above all it showed that the ma-
jority was expected to be with the
council at the Tuesday election.
On Monday night another meeting
was called for the court house. This
meeting was called by Committee,
but, until Mayor Barnes and others
who attended the meeting began their
smoking out process no one knew the
personnel of the "committee or VINO
appointed the same.
Judge John l.. NoOnan, who lives
outside the city and thus had no vote
Tuesday. was the first speaker called
to the front by William Cross who was
selected for chairman by Senator Ma
pier who, in explaining his action,
brought up the old question Of "bill
of rights" and evidently sought to
cloud the point at issue, namely, the
personnel of the committee But
after some delay Napier, Drach and
Noonan assumed the full responsible
ty for being the committee and
matters moved on rapidly.
Judge Noonan dwelt at length on
the business side of the proposed pur-
chase and it was amusing to all to
hear him intimate that the water

The general committee having in
charge the arrangements for the Straw
berry Day festival is making splendid
progress and reports that the details
are being worked out as rapidly as
can be expected. Those who are 70
have charge of the various floats are
exercising their inventive genus to the
limit and many novel attractions are
promised in this line.
At the meeting of the committee
last Wednesday evening the most im-
Portant business transacted was the So
lection of the queen of the festival. A
motion was made and carried that the
queen be selected from the 1914 high
school graduates. Someone suggested
that Miss Mabel Moore, having taken
first rank in grades in her class, be
honored for this position. Others were
nominated from the senior class, but
when the vote was taken Aios Moore
had an easy majority and her election
was declared by the chaiEnss. -
Miss Moore is the daughter Of Mr..
Hugh Moore of the Glenwood Post
office and is very popular with the
young set and is in every way quail
fled to do honor to the position to
which she has been selected.
The following ladies constitute the
committee in charge of the queen g

With . thud which was louder than
the roaring thunder among the nearby
mountains or the roar of the Grand
river as it pummeled the banks Of that
turbulent stream, the votes were
dropped into the ballot boxes in the
three wards here Tuesday by the tax
paying electors, who, in a voice which
could not be mistaken, said to the
mayor and board of aldermen, "we,l
done, thou good and faithful servants; !;
60 ahead and buy the water plant Of
the Glenwood Light & Water company
and pay therefor the sum of $4,000
as you have agreed and here are the
bonds with which to make the pur-
chase
Typical of the occasion, rain began
falling early Thursday morning and,
for a time, it was feared less than q
hundred of the taxpayers would re-
spond to the call and advise the mayor
and council regarding the wisdom Of
purchasing the water plant and TINS
ending the controversy which has ex-
tended over period of fifteen to
twenty years. But the voters came to
the front and by vote of over four
to one told the opposition. which was
led by Senator B. T. Napier, E. E.
Drach, Thomas Howard and Judge ].
l.. Noonan, to clear the pathway fo,
a greater Glenwood Springs. Not only
did the voters tell the mayor and coun-
Gill to buy the plant, but they en-
dorsed their proposed intention of
paying $4,000 in bonds for it.
This brings to an end fight which
has been waged in this city for many
years. 1t has destroyed friendships in
many cases and has been bugbear to
the people of progress throughout the
entire time. But the voters tired of
the scrapping and, believing that the
mayor and council had driven a good
bargain, supported them almost unani-
mously.
While the vote was not as heavy as
in elections in former years, it was
representative and undoubtedly spoke
the general belief throughout the city.
The vote on the various questions in
each ward follows:

SULPHUR DRIES
Up ECZEMA AND!
STOPS ITCHING
This old time skin healer is
used just like any
cold cream.

Sulphur, says a renowned dermatol-
~gist, just common bold-sulphur made
3nto q thick cream will soothe and heal
the skin when irritated and broken out
With Eczema or any form of eruption
The moment it is applied all itching
ceases and after two or three applica-
hons the Eczema disappears, leaving the
skin clear and smooth.
He tells Eczema sufferers to get from
Eny good pharmacy an ounce of bold
sulphur and apply it to the irritated
PARTS the same as you would any cold
cream. ...-... ~ =" -
For many years common bold-sulphur
has occupied secure position in the
practice of dermatology and cutaneous
affections by reason of its parasite-de-
stroying property. 1t is not only para
siticidal, but also antipruritic, anti
septic and remarkably healing in all
irritable and infammatory conditions of
the skin. While not always effecting a
permanent cure it never fails to in
stantly subdue the angry itching and
irritation and heal the Eczema right
up and it is often years later before
any eruption again appears on the skin.
