JAMES L. COOPER
District Judge, Candidate for Re-Electie n

trict which embraces Fremont, Park,
Chaffee and Custer counties.
Judge Cooper, for many years coun'
ty Judge in this county, is well known
over the district for his professional
ability, personal integrity, high honoi
good principles and his patriotic de
votion to the state and the laws that
govern il.
Judge Cooper is the candidate OF
the Republican party, an organiza--
ton with which he has been identi-
fed all of his life because he believ-
ed its policies would best subserve
the interests of the public. He is not
in the ordinary acceptation of the
phrase "a strong partisan" nor does
he arrogate to himself and to his
party associates a monopoly of the
patriotism of the country. he knows
from observation and experience that
all good citizens possess a love of
country and that the only difference
among them in that respect is the
divergent views they hold as to the
best means of promoting its welfare
Democrats, as well as Republicans
can vote for Judge Cooper without
doing violence to their party tradi-
tions. As an officer he has always
been above party; the representative
of all the people.
Judge Cooper is the incumbent of
the place he seeks; a position to
which he was appointed by Governor
Carlson in January of this year. He
has made good and is now endeavor.
ing to be elected TO fill out the un-
expired term of the late judge C. A
Wiltin, which viii end in 1918. IE
continuing Judge Cooper in the office
he now fills the voters of the Eleventh
Judicial district will be acting wise
ly and we'll. Under his able admin
istration the laws of the state will
be honestly and intelligently con
strued and equal and exact justice
meted out to all.

]. V. Blake, the Republican nomi-
nee for county clerk and recorder,
is an experienced accountant, an af-
fable and obliging business man and
is admirably qualified in every way
TO fill acceptably that very important
position. He has been resident of
Fremont county for thirteen years
and has a host of warm personal
friends who are working hard for his
election. If be has any enemies who
are opposing him for any other than
political reasons he is not aware of
it.
a vote for Joe Blake will be
worthily bestowed and will be for a
man of the utmost integrity. Ii will
be in the interest of one who will
exemplify in the discharge of official
duty all of those qualities which the
people have a right to expect of those
who hold public place.

sioner from the third, or western dis.
trict of the county.
AS a county commissioner Mr.. Jack

judgment. experience in public busi-

sary for an efficient. economical ad-
ministration of its affairs. Not only
in the matter of the extension and
improvements of public highways
would Mr.. Jackson prove a valuable
man as a member of the board of
county commissioners. but his ser.
vices would be equally helpful as an
adviser in relation to other questions
in which the county is concerned. Mr..

A TIP FOR SMOKERS
lKeeping Cold Pipe in Mouth Gives
 Satisfaction.
(Exhangel


 : Nowadays we must all econonn1ze in the something, and the wise man sees that the something is a luxury. 9Economizing in necessities is 9, dan gerous business.
 The principal luxury of the mascu- line Briton is smoking. Smoking is largely matter of habit A smoker gets accustomed to having something between his teeth !; so, after he has had the first pipe of the day (aIways the sweetestD let him keep the cold pipe in his mouth; !; } at any rate,l it will be better than : nothing at all!
 A pipe with a very small bowl gives i us another way out of the difficulty. A third dodge is to put a plug at the bottom of the bowl. Some smokers use a plug formed of a tiny piece of stale bread; it acts as a filter, and helps to keep the pipe clean
 Numbers of men say they "can't smoke a pipe.'' Possibly they have always tried to smoke what is known Ito the tobacconists as a pipe tobac- so'' either a dark shag-much too ] strong for them-or a f1aked or coarse ] cut tobacco, and they can't keep it alight.
 Let them try a light cigarette to- tbacco in pipe. Burn your tongue? There is no reason why it should. ] Keep tue fbaccy fairly dry. and pack it rather tightly in the bowl. Then 1t will burn slowly and you get a mild. light smoke. The only reason Iwhy a coarse-cut tobacco gives the tpipe-smoker a cool smoke is because | it burns slowly.

BARNUM SCHOOL
 PUPILS PLEASE IN CELEBRATION
Observe Flag Day With In teresting Exercises at As

The pupils of Barnum school cele- brated Flag Day with an interesting program prepared by the principal, Miss Carrie A. Seelye. Long before commencing time the spacious assem- bly, hall was filled by parents and friends of the pupils. and promptly at 9:30 the orch estra struck up a lively selection to which the chil- dren marched in. The entertain the Scripture, followed by the Lords prayer. The entire sch ooI then join ed in the national hymn, which was concluded by the pledge of alIeg- lance.
 Harold Bosworth recited the pa triotic selection, There's Fire in the Old Flag StiI1,'' the school completing the chorus to the tune of John Browns Body The G1ee club of 5 0 voices sung La Spagno1a," after which a seXtet of dancers entertained with a Spanish folk dance. Governor Ho1comb's Proclamation of Flag Day was read. A number of boys and girls of the eighth grade rooms repre- sented the school athletics in an ex- hibition of advanced club swinging under the supervision of Physical Director Harvey Went.
 It is the custom of the graduating g class each year to present a token of their appreciation of teachers and school, and in accordance with this, three beautiful pictures were selected by the class of 1916. One portrayed the coming of sthe white man, while the others were counterparts of the famous pictures in the Congressio Library representing the evolution of the book. Sidney Challenger made

 In celebration of the Shakespeare Tercentenary three acts from Shake spearean plays were presented by the pupils under the supervision of Miss Grace DaIrympIe Clarke. Act two of Julius Caesar was enacted followed by Shakespearean song, Blow, Blow, Thou Wintry Wind,' by the Glee club. Perhaps the most inter- esting part of the days program con sisted of the last two acts of "The Merchant of Venice,' the difficult parts in the trial scene being carried exceedingly well by pupils. Specta- tors agreed that much dramatic talent was shown by the youthful interpre- ters of Shakespeare, and all credit is due Miss Clarke for her untiring eff forts in coaching the plays.
 Under the leadership of Clayton Stevens the school sang, ''It Was a Lover and His Lass,'' the song being interpreted by a folk dance in which the Misses Wahnita Barker and Helen Cowell took part. Much thanks is accorded Mrs. Cowe1 for her efforts in making the folk dancing a success. Oscar Mohr entertained with a violin solo with cello and piano accompani- ment.

MEETING MAIL
 ORDER COMPETITION

While the home merchant feels. the : competition of the big mail order houses more or less, yet he wastes little time in denunciatton of their methods. If he is wise he tries to [ see where they get their hold, and ap- plies their ideas to his own system. A good showing could often be
 made by printing an advertisement comparing mail order prices with home store prices. It would often be found that the home store prices are actually lower. And in many cases the home. merchant could show that he could supply the ssme goods at the same price or less, only that ] the goods are second or third grade, and he would not dare selrthem unless ] the customer understood that point l thoroughly.
 ] Ask the public if they would rath- 1 CT not buy near home where they l can see goods before paying money, | where goods not as represented, will | be made right, and where they can
 make inquiries about the goods be- 1 fore buying?
