IN THE SEASON OF REBIRTH
Mankind Can See In Nature Awaken.
Ing an Appeal to His Spiritual
Feelings.

Between the penitential season Of
the religious year, which Ash Wednes-
day opens, and the weather of win
ter's decay and of springs renewing,
is mysterious bond Of similarity
which enhances the meaning OF the
observance. In the order Of nature 1t
is time of the sloughing off OF the
old and the Quickening OF the new; Of
the release Of earth and streams from
icy letters and snow burial, and the
deep, secret STRINGS Of new life. And
these, II we will, are but the symbols
of what may stir and quicken In us
under the influence Of this season OF
self-denials, both Of the great things
and of the small. 1t is the season
which reaffirms the mystery which.
like death, no man understands until
he has passed its portals by expert
ence; the mystery, namely, that 1t Is
only by giving up that we acquire the
greatest gifts of life. We know that
the principle holds in the little things.
yet the fear of trying 1t In the great

Easter celebrations take on varied
aspects all over the world. with curl

districts and spots remote from the
great travelled highways. But it is
in the foreign cities that one often
sees the expression Of the big, impress

Spain, for instance, one sees 1t, as

Easter In New York is different from
Easter in Rome; and SO the contrast
may be carried along between many

EMPLOYMENT BUREAU NAMED,
Governor Carlson Selects Committee
Of Three to Assist Men Out
of Work,

Denver.-Governor Carlson has ap-
pointed a state committee on unem.
ployment and relief which, with the
aid of the state highway commission,
Will try to furnish labor for distressed
workers. The members of the COM
mittee are F. ]. Radford, president of
the Trinidad Chamber OF Commerce;
IL. j. Alexander of Denver, and Albert
A. Reed, an attorney. OF Boulder.
The subject of furnishing work for
unemployed men is one which the
governor has had under consideration
ever since he took office Several
weeks ago he conferred with a num-
Der of wealthy men about it. Later,
he discussed the subject with w. l..
Mckenzie King, investigator for the
Rockefeller foundation and formerly
Of the Canadian labor bureau.
He announced his appointment of
the committee in letter to President
Radford of the Trinidad chamber
Radford is to be chairman Of the com.
mittee. In his communication Cover
nor Carlson recites that there is dis
tress through unemployment in all
parts of the country, that the state
Highway Commission has outlined a
comprehensive system of road build
ing and that these highways pass
through or are within convenient dis
tance of the places where unemploy-
ment Is congested."
After expressing regret that the
half-mill levy for roads voted by the
people will not be in effect until next
year, he announces that the highway
commission will apportion the i'm.
provement fund SO that it can be used
at once for road construction.
The suggestion that donations may
be made to further the road work and
give work to the unemployed is made
in his letter.
He declares that certain citizens and
organizations are interested in the
completion of particular portions of
scenic highways and he understands
that other citizens and organizations
have indicated an intention to cooper
ate with the state in the same work,
but primarily to provide immediate
employment for distressed workers"
The committee is to "confer with all
such individuals or organizations as
to ways and means of providing en-
ployment and administering any re-
lief funds" 1t will seek "to focus
construction upon such places as will
best carry out the purposes OF the
Conors."

Miller, who lives on a farm west of
East Lake, was instantly killed by
Mrs. Morrone when the latter fired at

Both Miller and the woman are
married. Mrs Morrone was alone at
the time except for her youngest
child. her elder children being away at
school and her husband being away at
work.
According to her story, Miller
stopped and demanded pay for ashes
which he had hauled eight years ago.
She refused and backed into the house.
She asserts that he tried to follow her
in, but that she slammed the door,
grabbed single -barreled shotgun and
fired into his head through the glass
in the door.
Afterward, she went along the road

buggy was keg of beer which he was
carrying home from Denver.

Three Sentenced for Postal Theft.

Denver.-Albert Pagel, Oliver How
ard and Samuel F. Mortimore pleaded
guilty to robbing the postoffice at
Walsenburg of $4,000 last December.
They were members of troop F, Fifth
United States cavalry. Federal Judge
r. e. Lewis sentenced Howard to
three and one-half years in the pen
itentiary and Pagel and Mortimore to
two and one-half years each. The SEN
fencing of the three soldiers and the
not guilty verdict of the jury in the
case of three other soldiers, Max Dor
ski, Francis V. Rudd and Theodore
Frank, disposes of the postoffice rob
berry cases, but does not clear up the
mystery of the missing $500. The
government officers have not been
able to find trace of this sum, which
was hidden some place in the camp
the night of the theft. The balance
of the $4,000 was recovered.
