PUPILS MADE FINE
RECORD IN SPELLING

The second general examination OF
the pupils in the grade schools OF
Canon City for the year was held last
Tuesday afternoon and was very
gratifying in its results. The pupils
in thirty-three classes, which included
all children from the fourth to the
eighth grades. took part in the con-
test. which was partly written and
partly oral. Fifty wordn were re-
quired in the test and the men,
bers Of five classes made a
perfect record. The members
of twenty-four classes made an average
of less than one error per pupil. The
thoroughness of the instruction in the
Canon City schools is nowhere more
manifest than in the excellence of
the spelling of its attendants and 1t
is hardly too much to say that in
orthography the pupils of the schools
here lead those of corresponding grade
in the educational institutions of the
state.

excess OF four thousand, a number
somewhat greater than the enrolment
on the corresponding date twelve
months ago. The school census in
April. 1915. showed that theer were
approximately five thousand persons

THINKS MACKY- -BRASFORD
CONTRACT A FORGERY

Boulder, Colo, Jan. 21.-George H.
King, a handwriting expert, called
by the prosecution. occupied the wit
ness stand Wednesday in the trial OF
Mrs. Mae Oles, charged with having
forged a contract between her father,
J. N. Bradford. and the late A. y.
Macky, Boulder philanthropist, who
adopted her.
King testified that in his opinion
Mrs. Oles forged the document, ex-
planning the reasons for his belief by
means of enlarged photographs of the
contract and of other documents
known to be in the handwriting of
Bradford and Macky.
On cross-examination King admitted
that during a pervious trial last June,
at which time Mrs. Oles sought to
establish her right as principal bene-
ficiary of Macky's will by means OF
the alleged contract, the document
was in the sole possession of King and
his associates. He said. however. that
one night the document was locked
in a hotel cafe.
The defense will attempt to prove
that the contract had been tampered
with.

STANDARDIZATION DAY.
IN THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS

February twenty-ffth has been pro-
claimed Standardization Day" in the
rural schools of Colorado by Mrs.
Mary c. C. Bradford, state superinten-
dent of public instruction, and an ef-
fort will be made to make the occa-
sion red letter event for teachers.
pupils. school patrons. boards of edu-
cation and people generally.
1t is suggested by Mrs. Bradford
that special literary and musical
exercises be held in all of the coun.
try schools of the state at that time
and that picnic dinner at noon be
one of the features OF the day and
that the parents and patrons be in.
vited to cooperate and take part in
the festivities. Standardization cards
will be hung in all of the rural
schools at that time and canvass
made of the conditions and possible
ties of the various schools for comply
ing with their requirements. Schools
that possess the necessary conditions
to meet the demands will be reported
to the county superintendent. who will
send the Standardization committee to
visit them and place them on the ac-
credited list.
Miss iGarwood. superintendent Of
the schools Of Fremont county. is es-
pecially desirous that some OF the
rural schools under her supervision.
will strive for standardization. and.
to tat end. will leave nothing undone
to make Standardization Day in this
county a success.

UNABLE TO GET Ex-
PECTEO HERD OF ELK

1t has developed within the past few
days that Canon City will be unable
to get any part of the herd of elk that
the government is shortly to transfer
from Wyoming to Colorado. Tentative
arrangements had been made with
agents OF the forestry service by which
Canon City was to share with Pueblo
of those animals. but the plans fell
through and all OF them were assign
ed to Pueblo with the understanding
that it would release them in the noun
tains in the vicinity OF Beulah. The
Pueblo Commerce club put up the
money necessary to get the entire
bunch and they are expected to ar
rive there in the course of the next
week or ten days. after which they
will be taken to the foothills west OF
that city and liberated.
A letter. however. from State Game
and Fish Commissioner Frazer TO z.
A. Bradbury. acting secretary OF the
chamber Of commerce here, on Thurs
udy, says II IL not 100 iAte LOT canon
City TO get herd OF elk from the
Federal authorities to be released in
the Greenhorn mountains II IL is will
ing to pay the price" for IT, Mr..
Frazer says that Canon City can pro-
cure herd OF twenty of these ami.
mails by paying the transportation
charges and incidental expenses con
nected with bringing them here from
the Jackson's Hole Country in wyo-
ming. which would amount TO forty
two dollars and fifty cents head The
establishment OF herd of elk in the
Greenhorn mountains would be a big
attraction for tourists in this section
Of the state. but It is doubtful whether
they can be brought here on account of
the lack of money available for the
purpose.
1t has been suggested that the city
council should purchase few elk for
inclosure in the city parks as a pub
lie attraction.

THE new DEPARTMENTS
Of THE HIGH SCHOOL

The manual training and domestic
science departments of the Canon City
high school are now installed in their
own special building and are doing
splendid work The new structure,
which has now been occupied for a
week or ten days, is admirably adapted
to the uses for which it was designed
and affords capacious and well appoint
ed quarters for instruction and demon
stration in the two most recent addi-
tions to the high school curriculum.
The building is ample in size for the
demands at present made upon it;
conveniently arranged. well lighted
and sufficiently equipped with tools,
utensils and mechanical apparatus to
enable instructors and pupils to carry
on their work with an efficiency hith-
erto impossible. The students in the
manual training and domestic science
classes are showing great interest in
their investigations and both courses
of study are proving very popular;
due in some measure, no doubt, to
the excellence of their instruction and
the liberality Of the board of educa-
tion in providing for their use build
ing admirably fitted and equipped for
such purposes.
Whatever of criticism and objection
there may have been at one time to the
incorporation Of manual training and
nj ia
schools here has, to a large degree,
been silenced since they wer put in
to opration and found to be so sue
cessful. The visitor that makes an
inspection of the work done by the
students has only praise for the value
and efficiency of these two new de-
partments to Canon City's educational
system.
While referring to the public schools
here it will be of interest to state
that a commercial and Bookkeeping
course of study has lately been added
to the high school and is now avail
able for students. This department is
in charge of Prof. Lauterbach and
about forty students are at present en-
rolled in the class. The hours given
to this department are from 10 O'Clock
to noon daily. The school authorities
are striving to give the people of Can
on City the very best educational ad-
vantages possible with the means at
their command, and, in this ambition.
their efforts are supplemented and
encouraged by the public.

FIRST DRUNK ARRESTED
SINCE STATE WENT DRY

The first drunk arrested in Canon
City since the statewide prohibition
law went into effect on January first
was taken into custody by City Mar
shal C. F. Skinner at the Grande
hotel on South Ninth street at 2
O'Clock this afternoon and was locked
up in the calaboose to sleep of his
intoxication. He gave his name as
Mike McAndrew and his place of resi-
dence as Westcliffc, but refused to
disclose the place where he got his
whiskey.
McAndrew, who is section fore
man on the Wet Mountain valley
branch of the Denver & Rio Grande
railroad. was raising disturbance in
the kitchen of the hotel. much after
the manner of the traditional bull in
china shop, and the police were
summoned by telephone to put a stop
to it. In a response to the message
Mr. Skinner and Captain /. n. Barber
of the fire department proceeded in
the latter's automobile to the scene
of trouble, took McAndrew into Gus
tody and carted him to the lookup.
McAndrew was at first disposed to
show fight. but thought better Of 1t
and surrendered to the authorities
without serious trouble. On being
searched he was found to have six
teen dollars in cash on his person and
a check for forty-three dollars. be-
sides a gold watch and some other
articles of lesser value. Although as
drunk as a lord McAndrew insisted
that he was sober and said that the
popularity of his actions was due to
a dose Of cocaine, which he had taken
at a local dentists this morning when
he had some teeth pulled. The smell
OF bourbon on his breath. however.
convinced the officers that McAndrew
was mistaken in his statement rs to
the cause OF his intoxication.
McAndrew will. probably. be ar.
raigned in court for hearing Friday
morning.
