An objectionable Sin.

No doubt every reader of this
article knows what it is to have
some person that claims your
friendship deceive you, and by
this false pretension of friendship
rob you of what is dearest to you
the n you love. To our mind
this is M of the objectionable
sins, a crime that every liberty
loving man and woman should set
their seal of disapproval upon.

Dark Days for the World.
Communicated

These are dark days for the
world. The shadow of the war is
heavier than ever on all hearts,
whatever their sympathies There
is little exhultation now even in
victories, for we know at what a
price of blood and pain every vic
tory is run. But there are many
things besides war in the world.
Except for our active imagina-
tions, most of us would feel life
running on pretty much as usual.
There is the same sunshine, the
same life-giving air, the same au-
tumn colors in the woods, the
same JOY in bountiful harvests.
There is the same quiet salts
faction of soul that has always
come with this season, whether in
country or city. Here, in our
American isolation, we can live
out our lives in spite of wars and
rumors of vars. There is need,
to be sure, of taking thought for
the future. But that is a matter
of calm decision, not for alarm
and fear. We are today the most
fortunate nation in the world. 1t
is a good time for the nation to
take to heart the philosophy that
is preached SO much today to in
dividuals-the philosophy of con-
6dence, of optimism, of positive
thought.
1t is right and proper that we
should feel the woes of Europe,
aud it is our duty to alleviate
them all we can. But it is wrong
to let those woes weigh on our
spirits until we lose our own
buoyancy and poise.. 1t is better
to regard the war as a doctor or a
nurse regards sickness-as some
thing to be cured, whose cure can
be effected not through outbursts
of sentimentslism but through in
telligent and cheerful service.

Big Ranch Deal.

G.. d.. Terwilliger, who owns a
big stock ranch on Cow creek
south of Saratoga, closed a deal
Saturday for the Sears ranch on
the same stream. The deal in
cluded everything except a few
thoroughbred cattle and some hor-
ses. w. Is. Sears is one of the
old timers of this valley and it
comes with some surprise, at this
time, of his selling out, as many
considered Mr.. Sears too much
attached to his fine ranch and cat

Marine News.

That the Marines and b~luejack-
cts of Uncle Sans Navy have
burr ed the Ratchet and there is
now only the kindliest feeling be-
tween the enlisted men of the
Navy and the enlisted men of the
Marine Corps, was evidenced at a
banquet rendered Gunner's Mates
Charles E. Hills and Robert Con-
roy by the Marine Detachment of
the U. s. s. New York, the other
evening
The naval gunners were pre-
sented with handsome gold watch
es by the Marine Corps boys, and
the speakers of the evening took
for their theme the new relation
ship between the enlisted men of
the two branches.
In the old days of wooden call
ing ships there WIS considerable
jealousy and ill. feeling between
the b~luejackets and Marines, but
since the advent of the modern
man-o'-war that feeling has en-
tirely disappeared and the men of
the two branches now live aboard
ship in perfect peace and har-
mopy.
Joint shore operations at Vera
Cruz and Hayti have brought
about an even better understand
ing between the men, the officers
declare.

tie to sell.

tie to sell.
The ranch contains nearly TOO
acres and there were over 600
head of cattle, with one of the
best summer ranges in the valley.
Mr.. Terwilliger made a good deal
when he secured 80 valuable a
piece OF property and it is safe to
say that the consideration was
close 10 500, 10000. This gives
Mr.. Terwilliger one of the big
gest individual ranches and stock
business in the valley, and he has
already proven himself to be a
very successful man in this line
of business.
Mr.. and Mrs. Sears and Mr.. and
Mrs. Stewart McPhail will prob
remain this summer but may
seek a new location this fall, but
as yet nc definite plans have been
reached.

Cuts Out Small Schools.

Mamie E. Doherty, county su-
perintendent of schools, this week
received notification from the
state superintendent informing
her that in compliance with a re
cent ruling of the attorney gen.
eral no school that has less than
six scholars for the entire school
term was eligible to receive any
of the county school funds.
This ruling means that in the
future at least nine districts will
not receive their proportion of the
county school money, but will
have to make some provision at
their annual meetings for the rails
ing of their school money if they
desire to have school next year.
This ruling of the attorney gen.
eral seems unjust to us as far as
this county is concerned as it
means that probably As young.
sters will not have any schooling
at all during the coming year. 1t
will be impossible to raise the en-
tire amount of the monies needed
by direct taxation in several dis
tricts.-Rawlins Republican.

INSTITUTE

and Afternoon
Meetings

Economics.

their first Farmers Institute last
week. The bad weather prevent
ed many people from coming out.
Those who did come expressed
themselves rs well repaid.
This is a new line of work that
is being conducted comparatively
by the University of Wyoming
and the Federal Department of
Agriculture. Because of the new
ness of it the people here did not
understand the nature of the work
or the purpose of holding the
meetings. For this reason many
ranchers were skeptical and would
not come out.
While these meetings are called
Farmers Institutes those who at
tended the meetings discovered
that the subjects discussed per-
tanned almost exclusively to stock
raising and the production of for
age crops. The women bad their
private meeting at which ques-
tions pertaining to the home were
discussed. We could, therefore,
more properly call these Institutes
a "Ranchers' and Home-makers'
Conference"
This is the last important stock
and agricultural section of the
state to receive the attention of
our State aud Federal agricultural
extension workers. This is en-
tirely due to lack of interest on
the part of the local people.
At Saratoga, while there were
only eleven people present in the
afternoon, there we're some inter-
esting discussions on sheep feed
ing by Prof. A. D.. Faville, rails
ing of alfalfa by Prof. A. E. Bow
man, and silos and silo crops by
E f. Burton. Miss Kolshorn
talked on home canning of meats
and vegetables with the ladies'.
Many questions were asked dur
ing the meeting.
In the evening there were about
thirty people present, Prof. Bow
man explained the purpose of ex-
tension work, setting forth the de-
sire of the State and Federal au-
thorities to bring expert informa-
ton to the ranchmen and farmers
and their wives in local commune
ties. He also explained county
agent work.
Prof. Faville talked on stock
feeding and breeding. Mr.. Bur-
ton briefly took up the subject of
dsirying.
AT Encampment the meetings
We're we'll attended. Fifty five
ranchmen and their wives were
present in the afternoon. Above
eighty attended in the evening.
The discussions were so interest
ing that the people stayed till $3.50
in the afternoon and till 1920 at
night. The ladies were 30 we'll
pleased with the results of the
meetings on Friday that they per-
suaded Miss Kolshorn to give an
other demonstration Saturday.
She consented and 81 women
were in attendance.

to court business. He left here
Thursday and went over to Raw
Inns and while not feeling the
best yet be vas not really sick.
Saturday he took sick and was
Iaken to the hospital, where he
died Sunday evening from heart
failure, brought on by pneumonia.
Last winter he was taken down
with the grippe and had a very
serious attack and had virtually
never gotten over the effects of it.
1t left him with a weak heart and
when taken with pneumonia Sat-
urday the end came very swift.
The body was brought to Sarato-
ga Tuesday and services were
held from the Episcopal church
yesterday afternoon at 2 p. m,

mon. The funeral was under the
direction of the LOOT. Lodge

@. 5. Taylor was born in Ohio
in 1853 and came to western Kan
sas VIII II years of age, and
from then on made his home in
the west. He was for several
years a COW puncher working in
Texas, Colorado and Wyoming,
and settled at this place in 1895
or close to that date being here
most of his time. He met Molly
Welsh at Fit. Steele in 1900 and
they were married at that place
the same year, moving to Sara
toga where they have resided ever
since. BE leaves besides his wife
two sisters and three brothers.
The sisters are Mrs. L.. E. O'Con-
nor of Blsckfoot, Idaho, and Mrs.
G. w. Moreland of Sedan, Kan.
The brothers are Ira E. and F. M.
Taylor of Blackfoot, Idaho, and
j. g. Taylor of Wilcox, Arisona.
Mr.. Taylor was employed as
marshal of one or two different
towns in Colorado, and was mar
shall of Saratoga and deputy sher-
if at different times since coming
here.
Mr.. Taylor was not a man of
wealth but had he been he would
have been a philanthropist of no
mean standing, as he was always
first to the reseue and last to leave
where aid was needed. Perhaps
for his generosity he was a poor
man. For many years we have
known him and in all those years
we could not start to count the
many acts of real kindness that he
performed and never asked in Ie-
turn. If it was the call of the
sick or the injured he a the
first on the ground, and in death
he was always ready to render aid
to not only the taking care of the
departed but to help to relieve
the ones left behind. He had
many friends and there was am
Pile help to give him the last kind
ness which can be shown on
earth. His obligations to aid the
injured, care for the sick and bury
the dead was carried out to the
letter. Though perhaps he did
not win his share of the worldly
goods, yet who can say whether
success is crowned with gold" or
with good deeds toward fellow
men"
The remains were laid to rest in
the I.OO,F. lot in the cemetery
east of town. The funeral was q
large attendance, many coming in
from the country and friends from
all over responded. Ira E. Tay.
