get Who are missionaries in China.
This was done at the sugg estion OF
Mrs. William Phillips who was in
heart and life a missionary of the
highest type. During these years
several Chinese girls have been
beneticiaries of this fund. One girl
who was beneficiary for ten years
is now married. She and her hus-
band are Christians She is a teach
er in one Of our Kindergarten
Schools. Another girl graduated in
the Davidson Girls School in 500
chow and Miss Virginia Atkinson.
the Principal of the school, writing
to Mrs. A. S. Clay, says: she has
done year of satisfactory work in
the day school at East Gate, Chang
chow, under Miss Ida Anderson's SUI
p2rviSion. She has taught the mu-
sic and other things in the school
and has been organist for their re-
ligi9us services. She is a bright
WI Je-awake girl and is worthy of
what you have spent on her.
The name of the one whom :
have recently put on the Scholar

Just finished the work Of the fourth
grade and is nice attractive child.
Her father has been a preacher
IN our church for a number of wears
but has recently died Vong-iune
Joined the church on commencement
Sunday and | believe that she is =
real little Christian at heart. We
have had hold of her ever since she
was mere baby, because her meth

No greater amount of good can be
accomplished, among the women of

flnence of these young women sent
out from these schools with that re

They will eventually become the
mothers in religious homes which is
the great bulwark against idolatry.

We urge the women of the church
to manifest an interest in this great
work by uniting with the Society
and contributing to its support.

and privilege
These things and these conditions
l believe will be sped on their way
by the election of Charles E. Hughes.
Can these imperative national
needs be worked out by a states
rights Democratic party that plans a
state dominated militia with its men,
ace of shiftless incompetence, spoils
politics and organized snobbery in a
national defense force, at a time of
world peril? More and more it be-
comes plain that most of our press
ing problems of large import are ma
tional in scope and will yield only to
national action. Yet we find the
Democratic party the modern, and let
us hope the last stronghold of the
advocates of local sovereignty. This
doctrine of individualism. sectional
ism and disunion menaced and al
most prevented the freeing of the
colonies from foreign domination
This doctrine well nigh defeated the
adoption of a unifying constitution
wherein the American ma ton became
fact. Wherever the fight for more
efficient and more humane govern
ment has been waged, this baneful
doctrine OF states rights has been
invoked to rally and shelter the anti
social forces, to arouse sectional
bias, local Jealousy and all the mean,
narrow passions that hold mems eyes
upon the ground, when great human
needs call upon them to look beyond
the rough and dusty road to the far
country that is worth the toll and sac
rifice of the long, hard journey.
Il believe in the character and cour
age of the nominee of the Republican
party. He is the most conspicuous
example in our history of the possi-
bilities that American politics may
hold for success in able and unselfish
service. For myself I gladly enlist
with the great majority of TIE Pro
gressives of the nation under the
leadership of Charles Evans Hughes. -

CAPT. BARBER
RESIGNS AS
FIRE FIGHTER

Captain l. N. Barber will sever his
connection with the Canon City Fire
department October first and will be
succeeded by Ray w. johnson. who
has been recommended by the fire
committee of the city council for the
position. Mr. Barber has been chief
of the department during the last
year and ! half and during that time
the organization has been thoroly
modernized and made one of the most
efficient in the state. Among the i'm
provements made since his instaila-
ton as captain of the department
has been the purchase of new
motor truck and the installation OF
more effective and economical fire
alarm system thruout the city.
When Mr.. Barber accepted the cap
taincy of the fire department he did
SO with the understanding that he
might retire at any time on giving
the requisite notice of his intention
to enter some other line of business.
He found the work interesting and
remained on the job far longer than
he had originally planned. He filed
his resignation with the city council
more than year ago. but that body
was loath TO accept IL and the matter
was allowed to run along without any
action being taken in relation to IL un
til Mr.. Barber insisted on his release
under it's provisions.
Mr.. Barber's resignation was
prompted by his desire to spend more
time at home with his family. The
exactions OF the position made II i'm
possible for him to be at home, ex-
cept during his annual vacation and
faf. .fasaG To-, ,,saI hrtaF A.
This was the most unpleasant feature
of the job to Mr. Barber and he de-
cided to resign as the only solution
of the matter.
In retiring from the fire department
Mr.. Barber desires to express his
appreciation Of the support given him
by the public in his work. and thanks
the city council for its cordial coop
Grafton in promoting the efficiency
and welfare OF the department.; the
telephone company and it's operators
for their prompt and generous assist
ance at all times; the newspapers OF
Canon City and the people generally
for their help in making the depart
ment an aggressive, up-to-date orga-
nization for the protection of proper
ty.
Mr.. Barber expresses the hope that
the time is not far off when the city
council can see its way clear to place
upon the payroll another fireman to
afford such relief to the members of
the department as will enable them
to spend more time at home with
their families than is possible under
the present arrangement. The fire
depa artment on the retirement of Mr..
Barber will consist of Ray w John
son. George Padgett. Peter Pringle
and J. Ward.
Mr. Barber will continue to make
his home in Canon City, but he has
not yet decided In what line OF bust
ness he will engage.

features of their career, as well as
of its practical side. Mayor Cooper
spoke at some length in the course
of which he alluded to his social and
business relations with Mr.. and Mrs.
Wray. He said they represented the
highest and best type of American
citizenship and commended thei
honor and integrity. Their word. he
stated, was always dependable and
was as good as their bond. Such

influence for good on all with whom
they are brought in contact.
Refreshments. consisting of ice
cream and cake were served. Mr. and
Mrs. Wray received numerous beauti.
full presents commemorative of the
occasion which they will cherish as
mementos of an event that was as
gratifying to them as it was pleasing
to their friends.

why | AM FOR HUGHES
BY RAYMOND ROBINS.

"The Republican Party-though
often dominated by the masters of
special privilege and made by them
the instrument of vast exploitation
has a rank and file of men and wom-

reject false or dishonest leadership.
Conceived in moral revolt against hu-
man slavery, it was born, baptized
and nurtured in the supreme national
struggle to maintain the national heri

opportunity to every citizen. Is not
its rank and file best calculated to
support a leadership that will create
national mind and conscience, and
having preserved the integrity of the
nation against the heresy of seces-
sion, will it not develop and maintain
progressive national program of

Sullivan with Dick Stapleton started out with dog team and three days outfit to try to pick up the tracks of the lost man.
 Five other outfits of two or three men with dog teams fully equipped for three or four days are securing the county in wide detours. Men oh snow shoes and skis are searching on the inner circles.
 At the time Breeding left the cabin at Serpentine springs he was clothed in denim parka, and ordinary sack coat and overalls. He travelled on skis and had no dogs and no food or blankets.
 Sullivan crossed Freeding's trail about four miles or so from the springs. It is supposed that he wan derod off down a creek thinking he had crossed the divide. A party of Eskimos have just ar- rived at Taylor from down the Ser pentine and they said they had seen no signs of Breeding. They at once started out to search.

Larson uses four deer for transportation purposes and they were new to Marx who has hitherto been dog enthusiast. He says that deer are the proper animals for travel in this country as they feed them selves, go fast, and don't suffer from the cold wind. He declares that prospectors ought to use them in go- ing to remote regions. Four deer would easily haul a half ton of grub and stuff, and all of it would be for the men as the animals could shift for themselves. Billy is going to learn the business and he is start
