Go in and Sit Down.

What are you going to Easter
Sunday?
Go into a church and sit down.
Stay sit until the end of the service
and keep your ears open and your
mind on what the preacher is say
ing. Then go home and think
over what he had to say. Don t
give his words just a passing
thought and then let your mind
slide back into the old financial
groove.
Take his discourse subject by
subject and analyze it thoroughly.
Pick out the good points and study
them infinitely as you discover
them. You can spend several
hours very pleasantly in this work
and at the end of that time YOU
may be amazed at the feeling of
peace and contentment that per-
vades your being.
You will find that there are
many things you knew that had
been forgotten for these many
years, and when they pass from
memory their value practically
ceases to exist.
Go to church Easter! Set an
example to the young people OF
YOUR family and of other people s
families. Let them judge you by
what you are and not by what
others may have to say of you.
Let your own actions afford them
the opportunity for so judging.
There will be services in at least
two Dolores churches Sunday, and
the doors swing outward to every
human being. The hand of well
come beckons to you. and the still
voice of conscience is calling tc
you. -
See the church notices elsewhere
in this paper for the hour and pro.

Go in. and sit down. and listen;
and think and then act.

Opportunity or You.

Some people are always waiting
for opportunity to take them by the
hand. 1t never does, and it never
will.
Opportunity is ever present with
us. it is by our side, it dogs our
steps, it never leaves us. But it
never reaches out its hand. We
must do the reaching. the grasping
the improving.
Don't sit still and wait for op.
portunity to come to you. Go out
and hunt it. and hunt till you find
1t. 1t is flirting with you every
day in the year, every hour of the
day.
One of your greatest opportuni.
ties lies in what you may accom-.
plish in aid of your home town,
for what is good for the town is
even better for you. If you want
your town to do something for you,
you should first do something for
the town. Opportunity believe in
that, and greets the one who does
it.
Don't expect to receive every
thing and give nothing. Opportu.
nifty does not approve of that. viii
not sanction it, will not lend its aic
and encouragement. Only fools
expect that. and fools seldom steF
beyond the shadow of their owl
foolishness.
The wise man makes his owr
opportunity, and that begets othe1
and greater opportunities, and the,
breed success.
Your future is not up to oppor'
tunity-it is up to you.

About twice a month now the news
paper shops receive notices from deal
ers Of the advance in price of paper
stock, all of which doesn't help the
printer any. Prices on the Western
Slope for newspaper subscription. job
printing and advertising are all to low.
Little SIMPLY papers around Denver or
out from Denver will get Csc an inch
for ads. while a west slope paper with
twice the circulation is expected to do
it for lOc, or 15c, an inch. And if you
spend $500 trying to double your circu-
lation, then add two cents an inch to
the price of advertising, they quit; say
they won't stand for being held up.
1t is all due to the fool tenderfoot who
first ran newspapers here. They estab-
lished the price and went the way of
the broke. No weekly home news
paper on the Western Slope should be
published for less than $3.50 year.
Its advertising rates should not be less

Want ReardIess Soldiers.

Domestic crises confront attested
married men with boards. Before they
present themselves to the British army
they will be required to remove that
long cherished possession. "No beards''
is the rule in the army, section II
of the Kings Regulations providing
that the chin and underlip will be
shaved, but not the upperlip. Whisk-
ers, if worm will be Of moderate
length. The result, according to a
London paper is that attested married
men with boards are faced with a
grave domestic crisis "My wife," said
one bearded armleteer, 'has never
seen me without a beard. was beard
ed when we first met. How do know
what she will think Of me when she
sees my chimp" Another bearded late
group man intends to join in his beard
and let the army authorities do the
execution he has not the heart to
wreak himself. He has a notably
large and flowing beard. A military
authority was firm on the point. Men
who join their groups would be well
advised to leave their boards al

SUCCESS IN THEIR OPINION
Barney Bernard Tells Good Story Of
Man Who Had Neglected an I'M
portant Point.

In the Lambs All-Star GambOl a
musical yarn was told by Barney Ber-
nard, the Shylock Of the Shake
snearean minstrels. "How is your
daughter Jessica?" asked the inter-
locutor, and Bernard's reply, stripped
of it's Abe Potash dialect, was:
"She's been studying music in Berlin
for three years. Lately she wrote that
she was ready to sing in grand opera,
and that she was coming home, so l
arranged a concert for her at Carnegie
hall, / went to several of the mem
bers of my lodge and asked them to
take tickets for the concert, telling
them that If my daughter was a sue
cess l would give a banquet to my
friends at tie Hotel Knickerbocker.
When the time of the concert came,
of course my daughter was nervous.
She broke down and went off the key
it was terrible. The people started
going out of the hall. At once L
thought of the banquet and 1 rushed
down to the KnickerbOcker to cancel
the banquet. IN the banquet room L
found five of my friends eating and
drinking champagne. Wait a minute,
1 said. I told you that if nay daugh-
ter was a success 1 would give ban
uuet-she was not a success, she was
a failure Then one of my friends
stood up and said, We'll, we liked
her."

GIVES RULES FOR TEACHERS
Squared Shoulders Drive Home Hy-
glene Study, Philadelphia
Doctor Says.

Pertinent instructions to public
school teachers as to the manner in
which they shall conduct themselves
about the schOolroom so that they may
be an example to their pupils were
given by DR.. Edward Martin, member
of the Philadelphia board Of educa-
ton, who presided at a health confer
ence of principals of the public
schools.
"Brace up, have a correct carriage
and be able to look others in the
face" Doctor Martin said to the sew
eral hundred teachers who attended
the conference. He commented on the
excellent carriage of the West Point
cadets, and told the instructors that
they should go with squared shoulders
before their pupils.
During the Spanish-American war,
while he was on inspection duty in the
South, Doctor Martin said the stand
ing Of regiment always could be pre-
dicted by looking at the officers who
commanded it. If the officers walked
erect and with yigOr, the troops usual
ly were like them.
All of the speakers admitted that
since the institution of the course in
physiology and hygiene the children
came to school cleaner, behaved better
and that much of the instruction given
Mt school had been carried home to the
parents.

War and the Missionary.

l hear that when the missionary So
cieties held their May meetings one OF
the most encouraging-and surprising
points was the satisfactory state OF
the finances. Last year, the first COM
plete year of war, was one Of the best
years the societies have had. | am
told that some of the most important
societies have been able not Onl y to
pay their way but to pay off large
amounts of deficit. People have GER
tainly not been ecOnOmizing on their
contributions to missionary work as
yet, and the way in which supporters
have rallied to it's support in wartime
is an interesting foStnOte to the his
tory Of the time.
Experience shows that in the first
year of past wars the missionary and
other funds of the same kind have
done well-it was so, 1 believe, in the
FrancO-German and the Russian wars
but that in the second year of war
they begin to suffer. 1t Is interesting
to remember that it was in the time OF
our last great war, century ago, that
most Of the missionary societies were
either founded or greatly developed

FEAR FOR HALIBUT YIELD
Important Northern Pacific Fishery Is
Believed to Be In Danger of
Extinction.

Halibut fisheries in British Columbia
are reported in danger,.Of depletion,
the Toronto Globe states. The yield is
now second only to that of the salmon
in the coast fisheries. During 1914 the
quantity landed at Canadian ports
was over 64,O00,O00 pounds, and it is
expected that the record for the last
year will be slightly greater. These
years show marked increase over the
total of 55,000,000 pounds in 1913. The
advance is said to be due mainly to the
adoption of more effective methods of
fishing and to the better profits OBJ
tained through facilities for preserv-
ing, shipping and marketing. Cold
storage and refrigerator cars make it
possible to place the catch of the
northern Pacific fresh on the markets
of California and the cities of the East
in Canada and the United States.
More information is necessary re-
garding the special circumstances of
the Pacific coast before effective means
of protection can be devised. The hair
seal is suspected of being among the
destroyers. A government bounty for
destruction, established chiefly as a
means of protecting the salmon, has
led to the destruction of many seals.
1t is claimed that only about one in
five shot in the water is recovered to
make q claim for the bounty. Sea
lions are also destructive AS theV
herd on known islands during their
breeding season systematic means can
keep them in check. Methods of fish
ing may some day need regulation.
Although a bottom fish, and keeping
in comparatively deep water, the hall
but comes to the shadows to spawn.
The government is alive to the impor-
tance Of the industry, and signs of
serious depletion should prompt inn
mediate efforts toward protective
measures.

STREETS TO BE FAIRGROUNDS
New York Authorities Will Close One
Hundred to Traffic This
Summer.

With the intention of establishing
more play streets for children this
summer, the police of New York will
begin at once a survey of the cOngest-
ed districts in the city to determine
where these recreation centers are
required, to decrease the number of
accidents. Commissioner Woods said
that he was convinced that these
streets were absolutely necessary for
the protection of life in the summer
months.
Studies already made by the depart
ment show that although Is per cent
of the population live south of Four
teenth street, between 10 and 20 per
cent of all the persons injured and
killed last year lived in that section.
"With sufficient funds at hand to
hire competent supervisors" Mr..
Woods said, "there does not seem to
be any reason why at least one hun
dred streets should not be closed this
summer, stanchiOns placed to keep
traffic out and the supervision of these
Fairgrounds put into the hands OF an
organization similar to the parks and
Fairgrounds.
"In this city there are 1,016,52O
children between five and fifteen years
old. It is estimated that of this num-
ber 682, ,941 must play away from home.
which includes 345O69 children who
live in Manhattan. 1t has been found
that the park department, the board
of education and private organizations
have facilities for caring for only
about two hundred thousand children"

ANOTHER FINE CHOICE

DTHE TRANSCRIPT ever seeks to be
1 just in its criticisms of public
men and measures-never blindly
partisan.
The truth of this is shown by its
severe structures upon the late president
Taft for some of his i'll deeds. Awhile
since it spoke in warm praise of Mr..
Wilson's appointment of Brandeis to
the Supreme Bench.
1t was a wise selection, and fine ex-
hibition of courage in the president ad-
herring to his choice in the face Of such
strong opposition both in his own and IN
the Republican party.
Now Mr.. Wilson has made another
highly admirable nomination to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation OF
Justice Hughes-Judge John Fl. Clarke
of Ohio.
Here's another judge who belives the
people have rights as well as corpora
tions-those soulless puppets Big Busi-
ness so often uses for purposes of rob
berry and oppression.
As an associate of the late Tom john
son, that capitalist with big heart,
he caught his noble contagion of
humanitarianism. Judge Clarke is one
more peoples man" in that high
tribunal, and what between Justice
Brandeis and himself their so often
neglected cause will have two able,
courageous advocates.
