BOB F0LWELL TO
BE HEAD COACH
Selected by Pennsylvania
as Man to Build Up
Football Eleven.

Philadelphia, Jan. 4.-Robert c. Fol-
well. coach Of the Washington and
jefferson football squad for several
years, was to-day selected as head
coach for the University of Pennsyl-
wanna eleven for next season.
His selection later was ratified by
the board Of directors of the athletic
association.
Folwell was captain of the Pennsyl-
vania team in 1907 and halfback Of
great ability After graduating he
coached the Lafayette squad for two
wears, and then went 70 Washington
and jefferson, where he has developed
exceptionally strong elevens. lie IS
about thirty years old.
The board also ratified the football
schedule as announced several weeks
ago.
Folwell will have free hand at
Pennsylvania. and is counted on TO re-
trieve the failing fortunes of football,
which has stamped badly for two or
three years.
He built so we'll and so strongly at
Washington and Jefferson that his
eleven won two games from Yale and
ranked high among the teams in the
East, both in 1914 and 1915.
Folwell is a keen student Of the game,
and lays particular stress on open play
and forward passing. In fact, few, If
any, teams in the country were so
letter perfect in handling the forward
pass, and few, if any, used 1t so efec-
lively as a ground gaining play and as
a dangerous offensive weapon.
The appointment Of Folwell ia gen
orally approved by the undergraduates
In 1907, when Folwell was captain,
Cornell was beaten by a score of II 10 4.
Washington, Penn, Jan. An
nouncement that Robert c. Folwell,
coach of the Washington and Jefferson
football team, had been selected TO
coach the University Of Pennsylvania
eleven caused regret among students
here tonight.
The news followed closely on an an
nouncement made by r. VI. Murphy,
manager Of the team, that he had Of
fered Folwell an increase In salary
from 81 900 to $4,000 to return 20 Wash
ington and jefferson next season.
No announcement regarding a sue
cessor to Folwell has been made.

Nike Mowrey is one man q the

UNDER the CAPITOL Dome
(By Alva "A. Swain)l

If the proposed amendment carries it
makes every foot of territory in the
state wet, even to the counties that
have been dry for over a quarter of q
century. If the proposed amendment
carries, beer can be sold with every
meal sold in the state. If the proposed
amendment carries breweries can be
started in every county in the state.
Three dry states have been selected
this year in which this amendment IS
to be voted upon. 1t is the "I'll be
good" promise of the National Liquor
Dealers association, and back of tina.
promise, if accepted, lies wet Colorado.
Prohibition is an issue and if the
forces of two years ago remain dor
mant, prohibition will be thing of the
past.
Beer is sold for home consumption Mt
present, but not one bottle is consumed
at present where ten barrels will be
consumed if the amendment carries.
Colorado has enjoyed the greatest
moral record of her history the last
two years. Jails are being emptied.
Poor houses are going to want. Pow
erty and hunger are disappearing.
Clothing is appearing on the backs Of
kids where rags hung before. Whole
families are learning the taste Of por-
terhouse steaks, where in many cases
the taste of real meat was almost uu-
known-all this because Colorado is
dry. And yet some would so change
our constitution that it will permit,
not the saloon where one member of
the family can drink, but the homs
canteen where the father can drink
while the kids go back to their SOW
belly, their rags, their poverty and to
sometimes clinging to their mothers
washing wet skirts while they peer at
their drunken dad through set Of
iron bars.
Men and women of Colorado, prohi-
bition is an issue and greatest of all
the results of prohibition are in the
balances, and into your hands has been
placed the pendulum of these balances.
Which way will you swing itl

THE GARDENERS FRIEND

All successful gardners know that
toads are their best friends, but all of
them do not know the value of birds
as insect destroyers. The department
of agriculture has reported that the
annual crop loss to the United States
from insect pests is over $795, 900.
An expert has estimated that certain
larvae will consume 200 times their
original weight in twenty-four hours.
If an infant did as much as some cater
pillars, he would weigh forty tons at
maturity.
All investigators agree that the song
and game birds are the best agents
for destroying insects. One authority
says that it is more than likely that
successful agriculture would become i'm
possible, if all the birds were to be ex-
terminated. The work Of the friendly
flicker, who likes the city almost -
we'll a. the country, is a good example
81 what an energetic bird will accom-.
plish If unhinde1ed. Certain Aickers
that were subjected to = survey were
found to devour 5000 ants day while
two orioles feasted ON $500 plant lice
at . single meal. The amateur sardss-
Il usually comes to his Arst grief in
Consequence Of his ignorance Of the
ways of plant lice. By encouraging
birds! - we'll - toads to live in his
garden he can reduce his troubles with

VISITS RIFLE CREEK

Division Engineer A. J. Dickson
made a trip to Rifle this week and in
company with Isam w. Graham, water
commissioner of District No. 80, went
up Rifle creek and East Rifle, consult.
ing with Mr.. Graham in regard to the
distribution of water in his district.
Mr.. Graham is doing excellent work
and giving the best of satisfaction, al
though Rifle creek is rather difficult
stream to handle in strict accordance
with the DEGREES.
However, Mr.. Graham is doing his
best and is working very hard to pro-
tect the people in their rights and the
people in turn are showing a patient
and helpful spirit and thus they are
faring much better than if they wele
grouchy and belligerent and hindering
the officer. When they find the water
low in their bitches they call the water
commissioner, as people should always
do, and Mr.. Graham at once gets busy
and grants them relief just as soon as
possible, and all are satisfied. S
The water officials have received
many compliments on the manner in
which the waters of Rifle creek have
been distributed this year. That creek
has given untold trouble in some years
past, but Graham has handled it IN
fine style this year. -.-

THAT PROHIBITION. AMENDMENT

Section 8. "Beer is hereby declared
to be Notwithstanding liquor within
the meaning of this article Of the con-
stitution, and the manufacture and sale
of beer is hereby made possible, pro-
vided, however, that all beer shall be
sold in unbroken packages and deliv-
cred directly to the consumer at his
residence. The state treasurer shall
charge and collect tax of 10 cents
per barrel for each and every barrel of
beer manufactured. This section shall
be self-executing.'
The above is the slogan upon which
the wet forces of Colorado hope to re.
establish the sale Of intoxicating Ii
quors in the state. 1t is the entering
wedge, so to speak, of the liquor in
terests. They are confident of victory
because of the fact that the temperance
forces are apparently not awake. They
claim that beer is being sold in tina
homes at present and that Colorado la.
por Suoulu ave VIC wage oohciAC'
The friends of prohibition are nerv-
GUS over the result. They see the
shadow of the saloon back of the home
deliveries, but worst of all they see
the apparent lifelessness of their
friends of two years ago. With the
friends of the amendment overconfi.
dent, and the friends of prohibition
nervous, the best barometer of public
feeling should be the masses. So far
! as I have been able to judge, the
masses are against the amendment, but
many of them feel that because pro
hibition has been such grand success
this amendment will be so easily de.
feated that work or worry is unneces-
sary.
In this they are wrong. Prohibition
is greater issue this year than it was
two years ago. Then the issue was
square-toed and we had an up and up
fight. This year the issue is under
cover. 1t is an attempt to establish
what we had in an underhanded man.
