"ALLIEs CRUSHING GERMANY"
Victory of British Assured, Declares
Chieftain to Lords.

London-The House of Lords met
Wednesday, a month earlier than the
House of Commons, chiefly to hear
from Lord Kitchener review of the
military operations for the six weeks
since Parliament was prorogued.
Lord Kitchener said that despite
their magnificent army organization.
the Germans were being pushed back
slowly and surely and that final vic
tory for the British arms could not
be questioned.
Lord Kitchener read his speech from
a typewriter document and referred
briefly to the operations in every
sphere, laying particular emphasis on
the Turkish defeat in the Caucasus;
the Austrian defeat in Galicia, and,
what he considered even more import
ant, the severe check to German as
pirations in Poland"

Denver.-The year 1914 was one of
the most prosperous in Colorado's his
tory as the figures given herewith
amply attest, and the prospects for
1915 are much brighter and better at
the opening than they were at the be-
ginning of the year just closed
In New Year Greeting to the
people of Colorado, Governor Ammon5
says:
with the strike called off, with ma
tional policies seemingly settled, with
wider and better opportunities for new
settlers and investors than we have
had in the state before, with a desire
on the part of a great many eastern
people to move to western lands and
avail themselves of attractive offer
ings here, the year 1915 is full of
promise
Our agricultural and livestock out
put for the past year was the greatest
in our history, with better average
prices for crops than for several years
past. The outlook for the new year
in all lines of agriculture is very
bright with a good prospect of con-
tinued high prices for years to come.
THE year closes with valuable and
important mineral discoveries among
the older mines Of the state and the
mining industry, being firmly estab-
lished upon businesslike basis,
seems certain of great revival.
The general situation promises
during the coming season employment
for our people and good returns for
the employer. In this favorable con
dition our citizens should unite in a
strong effort to make the coming year
the most productive and prosperous in
our history"

The OIL IndustrY.

Colorado's oil and natural gas re-
sources are practically unknown. al
though oil has been produced since
1890 and gas since 1894. The total
production of oil is about 100000 bar
rels annually. This figure, compared
to Californias S6,450,767 barrels per
year, and even Wyoming's 1,572,306
barrels per year, shows that the in
dustry in the state has never passed
it's infancy.

John T. Willett, chief state inspec-
tor of weights and measures. return
ed Saturday after attending the con
VeDtion of sealeTs of weights and
measures of New York state at New
York and the national convention held
at Washington. Mr.. Willett was elect
ed treasurer Of the national body.
He was accompanied by Mrs. Willatt.
The national convention endorsed
the Ashbrook bill which has been pre-
scented in congress. This measure

weights and measures to file a type
of their output with the government
bureau Of weights and measures.
These would have To be approved be-
fore the company could place their

Another suggestion made by the
convention was that all articles be
sold by weight instead OF nv measure.
1t was also recommended that the
government impose duties on imports

There were 81 states represented by
the chief weights and measures in
spector while a number of city and

CHRISTIANITY CALLS
FOR RIGHT LIVING
Must Be Honest and Upright i'm Our
Dealings, Says Rev. j. o.
MOsier.

The Activity of the Christian" was
the subject of the sermon preached
last night at Mizpah Evangelical
church by Rev. ]. O. Mosier. In part
he said that everything that has life
is more or less active, and in the book
of Ephesians we find a chain of
thought that set forth the various
phases of activity.
IF you profess to be a Christian,
then be honest and upright in all your
dealings. Walking implies progress,
and we to get somewhere some
time, unless we are in a treadmill, or
going in a circle which may be the
case with some in the hurch. Walk
ing implies activity and the Chris
tian must be active to remain a true
follower of Jesus, for he went about
doing good, was weary and homeless,
and sometimes almost friendless. In
the fifth chapter and the second verse
we are asked to walk in love. which is
the browning grace. Then we are
supposed to walk in the light as Christ
is in the light, then we have fellow
ship one with the other and the blood
of Jesus Christ cleanseth us from all
sin. which after all is the work of the
church"

THE MAN WHO LOOKS
FOR TROUBLE GETS 1T
People Should BE Ready TO Sacrifice
Many Things to Preserve
Peace

The last Sunday morning sermon
for the summer was preached yes
terday at Temple BETHEL by Rabbi
Cronbach on the subject, THE Soldier
Dead"
Had the counsels Of such men as
Abraham Lincoln and Horace Greeley
prevailed the horrible rebellion might
have been avoided. Every war can be
avoided. The way TO avoid any quar-
rel is simply to be a rational human
being Be an impulsive, impetuous,
raging, fire-spitting jungle specimen
and inevitably you will have quarrels
and inevitably you will have wars.
Men are so willing TO make sacrl-
fees for war. At the buele call behold
the millions Of them leaving mother
and father, wife and child. home and
work and prospects
leaving all things, giving up all things.
Welding all things when the drum
beats and the clarion sounds If only
a fraction Of that much sacrifice would
be made for the sake Of peace. How
curious. People think it ignoble 10
Weld even a tiny point for the sake
of peace while il is regarded as the
climax of heroism TO yield everything

HUMAN HEART IS
POSITIVE Of GOD
Fools, Ancient and Modern"
is Topic of Dr.. GARDENERS
Sermon Urges Young to
Listen to Parents.

"Fools-Ancient and Modern" was
the subject discussed last night by Dr.
James L. Gardiner at the St. PauPs
Memorial Methodist Episcopal church
DR.. Gardiner spoke first of the
'Scornful Fool as set forth in Pro-
verbs 1875 and 20. a fool dispiseth
a fathers instruction." and "A fool
ish man dispiseth his mother"
Many a young man" said the
speaker, has been raised in a Chris
tian home. He has had the blessing
of Christian father and mother He
has been brought up to reverence
God, the Bible and the Sabbath. But
the time comes when he dispises the
instruction of father and mother and
thus makes wreck of life. The young
man who thus turns aside from the
cody counsel of father and mother
makes the colossal mistake of his ca
reer."
DR.. Gardiner spoke Of the "Atheis-
tic fool" who has said there is no
God" 1T is never safe to predicate
a universal negative. That however
is what the man does who says there
is no God. To prove there is no God
one would have TO examine every
nook and corner in this great universe
and prove that God had never visited
that spot But 10 prove there is
God we only have TO find one spot
where He has been or one force in
which He has operated. To prove
there is a God we only have to find one
flower He has made or one human
heart He has changed.
I'VE may not be able TO prove sci
entifically there is a God but we can
prove experimentally there is a God.
Some of us have experienced the life
OF God within our souls We know
that it is He who has changed our
hearts and who has put a new song
in our mouth. We know by eXper-
fence Him whom TO know is life
eternal
4 would call your attention to an
other fool. "A Rich fool. who is de-
scribed IN the new testament. He is
the one who said he would pull down
his barns and build greater and would
say to his soul, Soul take thine ease,
eat, drink and be merry and to whom
the Lord said, Thou fool this night is
thy soul required of thee
This man was a fool according TO
scripture because he shut God out
of his life and thought only of him.
self He was a fool because he seem
ed TO think that the purpose of life
was TO eat, drink and be merry. He
was a fool too because he thought he
had much time at his disposal"

MANS HUMANITY TO
MAN PASTORS subject
Notable Examples of Relief Work
Are Related by Rev. c. \.
Decker.

Mans inhumanity to man Is a
long story of bitterness, hatred and
warfare. The annals of history reek
with blood and tears because of it.
Further when one turns to consider
the other side of the subject he Is lost
in admiration and gratitude, for there
is so much in human history to be
grateful for. Even amid the dark
est pictures in life there are illumin-
ating touches" said Rev Charles A.
Decker, pastor of the First Baptist
church Sunday morning in his SER
mon on MANS Service TO Man"
Consider mans service to the men
of his own generation. The present
is not without its philanthrOpists, and
no age has been without it's benefac-
tors 1t may be mans inhumanity to
man that has brought on the dread
full wars Of the past and present. But
il is mans service TO his fellows that
has made possible the splendid or
CARNATIONS of relief The Red Cross
society for instance. is not in the field
to serve the interests of any nation in
particular. 1t was called forth to give
expression to this desire on the part
of men to serve their fellow men who
may be in need. And ii matters not
where the needy ones are found.
1T may be due to mans careless
ness that results in so many accidents
and so much sickness. But it is mans
sympathy for his fellows that erects
hospitals and other institutions where
the unfortunate may be cared for The
people who contribute to the work
of this character do it out Of love and
not from cOmpulsion.
1T is mans greed that forces other
men to live on less than a living wage.
But it is real interest and sympathy
that organizes relief for the needy.
The people who are responsible for the
work Of the Associated Charities Of
this city give their time and effort for
loves sake, hOping for nothing again.
As you look out into life, what do you
find2 Greed, hatred, bitterness,
death? Or love, sympathy, sacrifice,
life l think it depends largely upon
what you are looking for Certainly
you may find a large measure Of
both. But don't overlook the SYM
pathy and the love. for il is there.
of this spirit is four in the world
it is because it has been here of whom
it was said that he came not to be
mintered unto, but to minister, and to
give his life as a ransom for many
1t is the Christian spirit And the
measure in which it has permitted the
lives Of men is the measure Of Christ's
conquest over the sin and sordidness of
human life"
