college. Her fellow students expressed
no surprise at her views. Nor has much
surprise been expressed in any other
quarters. Clearly the Barnard girls
words are the handwriting on the wall
Her young finger merely pointed to the
trend OF the times. She wants what
every other girl wants, firm. undlsputed
grasp upon her own pursestrings.
Every girl, represented by the frank
young graduate of Barnard, knows that
uncertainty OF fortune. The daughter OF
former millionaire operates switch
board in one of the smart hotels OF
New York. Clear-eyed girls with active
brains have seen these shiftings of the
money sands. They have decided that the
way at once of safety and OF self-respect
is to equip themselves for earning their
own living.
Every girl has faith I'm the young man
to whom she has given her heart. but
she has no faith In the permanency OF
the stock market. nor the plentitude Of
crops, nor the stability OF prices nor the
continuance Of the present cost of living.
She believes, as the late Ebert Hubbard
said, that the test OF brain power is its
owners ability 10 earn a LIVING. The con-
dltions of the times are challenge TO
the young girls ability to provide her
own bread and butter and she has ac-
cepted the challenge.
Barnard's valedictorian has not chosen
her bread earning vocation. She Is going
down this week into the social settle
ments to see whether she can find there
a channel for her energies. The workers
are paid for their services and Il does not
discourage her that the wage is not large.
ITO earn my living and at the same
time serve humanity" Is her aim.
'why isn't this girl right, thoroughly,
emphat.cally so2''
Her trained vision has seen those things
that may be. What n the young Prince
ton instructor whom she has promised 10
marry should become III? What if-and
clear-eyed girls see In the future this
possibility, even though the glimpse
brings a lump to their throats. and causes
their hearts to sicken-what II she should
become a widow? Or what II some per-
verse fate should visit disaster upon the
family they are 10 found? Then, indeed
would her experience-earned power be
needed.

At a little distance Captain Nye floated
face down. His two men came to the
surface, came together clinched and died,
each trying to use the other as a ladder
by which to climb out of the water.
Barclay looked for awhile coldly into
Gunsdorf's face, and then looked away.

Barclays expression did not change. He
did not look at Gunsdorf.

Then the little boy, his teeth chatter

"'Taint pretty to see men drown" and

Gunsdorf and tried to draw him out of

carious operation.

Canon City from vineland. Colorado.
three weeks ago and the day follow
ing his arrival here was stricken
down with pneumonia. He was taken
to the hospital for treatment and his
wife summoned to his bedside. She,
too, contracted the disease shortly
after coming here and has been a
hospital patient ever since.
Mr.. Fisher was believed to have
passed the crisis of his illness and
was thought to be convalescent until
about noon today when his heart
weakened as result of the strain
to which it had been subjected and
he passed away little while later.
He sat up on Tuesday and expressed
the opinion that he would be out on
the streets again in the course of a
few days.
Deceased was about sixty years of
age and came to Colorado from
Iowa, where he spent his boyhood
days. He resided at yineland. in Pue-
bio county for long period before
coming here and was for many years
an ordained minister of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church. Subsequently
he changed his denominational affilia-
ton and from that time until his
death he was preacher in the Chris
tian church. He was a man of ster-
ling qualities and generous impulses
and had many warm friends in the
community where he lived
He leaves besides the sorrowing
wife, three children, two daughters
and one son. The eldest daughter is
married and lives in Manila. Philip
pine Islands. Arthur, the son, is
about seventeen years of age and is
here with his parents. The other
daughter. aged ten, is in school at
Vineland. Mrs. Fisher, who was rap
idly getting better, is prostrated by
the sudden death of her husband
The funeral arrangements have not

Here's to the heart who loved me,
Here's to the one who bore
All of my bitter upbraiding
Back in the days OF yore.
Who stood at the helm of the house

And watched with loving eyes.
Who tucked me into my trundle bed,
Sent prayers for me to the skies.
Who was faithful to duty in illness,
And cooled my fevered brow.
Who carressed by paled cheek lightly
As only angel mothers know how.
The years of patient serving.
