Just our luck. No sooner had the
press dispatches announced the price
of radium at 100000 a pound on the
market than we discovered that We
hadn't pound of the stuff about the
shop. Wish they would advance the
price of old roller composition in some
such ratio. We should like to pay our
taxes and settle last month g coal bill.

An interesting musical program was
rendered at the county high schoo!
Wednesday morning as part of the
opening exercises. An especial fea-
ture was the part taken by number
of second graders under the direction
of Miss Clanton, the capable music
teacher for the schools. The little
folks were heartily applauded by Their
elders. Many of the high school pu'
pills also rendered musical selections IN
manner that was most pleasing to thei!
hearers.

In class recently licensed at the
state bar examination to practice law
in Colorado was J. Carlyle Thorson Of
Boulder, brother of Mayor Ollie Thor
son of this city. Carlyle passed through
the grade schools of Glenwood and his
folks then moved to Boulder where he
finished his high school and university
education, graduating from the law de-
partment of the "U' last year. An
nouncement is not made as to just
where Carlyle will first hang out his
shingle, but it is probable that he will
secure professional connection with
some Denver law firm as he is pretty
well known in the capital city where
he has been employed by two of the
big bond buying houses.

The fire at Mrs.. Tully's residence is
probably to be thanked for saving
the city's hose carts from destruction
in the collapse of the city hall building
used for fire station. After the fire
the firemen stored tn hose carts 1T

chance to dry out; else it would have
suffered the same fate that befell the
hook and ladder outfit.
Today at the Glenwood sanitarium
another operation will be performed on
Alex Montgomery of Eagle who was
brought here some time ago suffering
from hernia and serious intestinal
trouble. Mr.. Montgomery was doing
fairly well until the past few days
when serious complications arose max
ing another operation necessary. Drs.
Stewart of Glenwood and Hadly OF
Eagle will operate.
George Gordon, one of the Oldest en-
gineers in the point or service on the
entire Rio Grande system and the man
man who pulled the throttle on the
first locomotive to run into the town
of Aspen, is dead after many months
of suffering. Gordon was born u
Scotland in 1854. He began running
an engine for tn Rio Grande in 1882.
He was well known in Glenwood al
though his home for many years has
been in Grand Junction. Several
months ago Gordon suffered nervous
breakdown and was placed in sani-
tarium in Pueblo where he died last

The weight of the deep snow caused
the collapse of the roof on the Hotel
Colorado kitchen Thursday night. For
tunately there was no fire in that part
of the building, SO that the damage was
limited to the actual collapse. The
kitchen is in one story portion of tho
building, and is isolated from the rest
of the hotel by brick walls. The total
damage has not been ascertained, but
the outer wall and the entire kitchen
roof will have to be rebuilt. Appar.
emily the damage to the huge range
will be limited, as the roof beams in
falling created covering which 1t is
believed saved the range from destrue.

Hello, Skeezicks," is a common

Here's a School Teacher
A school teacher is enrolled In the
typewriting class. Most of the girls
are young in the typewriting class
and most of them in the shorthand
class.
There is more real motive behind
attendance at the elementary classes
by girls than there is in any other
department Of the city educational
sytem. These are the factory girls.
Some are learning to cook and others
to sew, so they can economic on
meals and clothing. All work In the
sewing classes is practical and the
pupils do work outside Of school.
No Grade System Used
There is no grade system in such
classes. The work is satisfactory"
or unsatisfactory" according to the
instructors judgment. If the work is
not satisfactory. it is taken apart and
done over.
Apparently there is no age limit in
the night school. Ages of pupils range
from Is to 60 years and social stand
ings have an equally wide range.

A school for the pupils.

A school for the pupils.
This tersly epitomizes the working
plan upon which the success Of the
Richmond high school is founded
Satisfied pupils and satisfied instruct
ors with more of the personal touch
apparent daily than older graduates
probably ever saw, are elements.
What is most impressive about the
highest public educational institution
of Richmond, with the greatest pei
capita attendance high school has ever
had in Richmond, is the good natured
way education Is handed out, under
the direction of the principal, Frank G
Pickell.
How the Machine Works.
To one who passed through school,
in the regime of school master,
with an emphasis on the master that
brings vision of a grim, tight-mouth.
ed ogre-like tyrant wearing small
highly-magnifying spectacles, the ultra
modern method OF school teaching and

The boy problem Is big one, he
said, and added that much Of it still
is to be solved. There are SO many
almost uncomfortable elements which
enter into the problem-personality of
instructors, environment of pupils and
the character Of the material he has to
work with-that a hard and fast rule
cannot be a success.
Method Of School System.

is solved as 1t arises. The school Is
a big interesting shifting problem In
itself that has to be solved like an
enigma.
Prof. Pickell thoroughly believes in
school spirit and in the past three
years the school has undergone a
change without knowing 1t. He is
strong for the human" side of the
pupils. He and his instructors, who
are uniformly in perfect sympathy
with the system, do not think of the
school as machine into which chill
