CONGENlAL SPIRIT,
BY Florence Lundeli.

What is the best thing in our town !?
What strikes you most when coming
into a town. If an artitect most likely
the buildings. if salesman the busi-
ness stores, il a farmer the land and
crops, a cattleman the grazing plains
and cattle, and SO on among various
persons of different occupationsAll
who know our town cannot fail to
know the best thing in it.
Whether you go into town stran-
ger or not: whether you remain Il
short or a long while you will form
an opinion. Will not the people them
selves have more to do in influencing; {;
you in forming your judgement OF the
town than any buildings or parks?
The people in our town are congen-
ial. II your coming has been announ-
ced there would not only be your
friend at the station to meet you but
also your friends friends would be
there to waceme you In a. very
short time they would make you feel
the spirit OF congeniaIity.
However II you arrive as stranger
some one is always around who is will
ing and more than glad to direct you.
Persons who come to live here be-
come aquainted very quickly: They
are greeted on the street by all. The
same spirit is felt throughout our
town. Whether one comes for bust
ness. visiting or to make his home.
Strangers are impressed with the
friendliness which exists between per-
sons OF the town. Example of this is
the following: a man returned to the
east after travelling in the west and
asked if during his trip he had been in
Julesburg. why Julcsburg" he ques-
toned. "Yes. Julesburg, the Gateway
to Colorado. at the Northeastern cor
ner of the State. "Oh, yes was the
reply that was the town which made
me feel as though l wasn't stranger
remained there over night and lik-
ed the place"
| Was it the buildings he liked in the
town? No the buildings alone would
not make lonely person feel as
though he were not stranger and
after being there only one night make
him say he liked the town.
Undoubtly the spirit of congeniality
which makes an inhabitant, visitor,
a stranger like our town is the best
thing in it.

b0ND ELECTION.

In this issue we are publishing call
for the voters of School District No. SO
to vote on the question of bonding the
district for an addition to our public
school building. 1t would seem to us
that If every one of the voters would
visit our Public School and personally
aquaint themselves with the crowded
and unsanitary conditions that exist
there that the election would be unam
iously for the Bond issue. 1t is GER
tain that those who have children who
are attending the school will insist
on this bond issue carrying and that
they will also insist on the Directors
using all speed in carrying out their
wishes and having a building ready
for occupancy this fall and the time
is Aone too long for the work. There
are at least dozen mighty good rea-
sons why we should have this addi--
tiOn, and we do not know of a single
reason why we should not have IL.
We trust that our readers will feel free
to use the columns of this paper in
expressing their views on the matter
and we shall take occasion to impress
on the voters between now and the
date Of election the necessity Of imme-
diate action on this important sub

MOTHERS ARE ENTERTAINED.

On Thursday afternoon, February
the twenty-fourth, the girls of the Sen
ior Domestic Science Class of the High
School and their instructor Mrs. Reich
entertained their mothers at lunch
con-
Apple blossoms and gay butterflies
made of the dining room spring
time bower. Pink and white sweet
peas formed attractive center-pieces
for the tables and dispensed dainty
fragrance on all sides. Girls in pink
and white costumes served at perfect
ly appointed tables while appropriate
music discoursed behind bank of
flowers.
Through the harmony OF sound, COL
or and comfort filtered sweetly this
theme: That no painstaking care, nor
labor. nor tender thoughts is too
great for daughters to eXpend in be-
half of mothers.
The mothers wish to express to the
Senior Domestic Science Glass their
appreciation of this beautifully ex-
pressed sentiment.

were: Mesdames Frank Deich, S. H.

Now comes Semer Coston in a cir
cular letter boosting Samuel d. Mich
olson for the Republican nomination
for governor Of Colorado. Coston was
one-time secretary Of the Progressive
party. He flopped to the Republican
party last fall and was an ardent sup
porter Of Governor Carlson. Evident
ly he didn't get what he was looking
for from the Carlson administration
and he has cast his lot with the mem
hers of the party who are trying to
prevent the denomination OF Governor
Carlson. If Coston is not taken any
Amore serious over the state than he
is in this county, where he was raised
from boyhood. he won't get very far
with his Nicholson boom.-Wray Ca

Monday evening that Dan is not get.
ting the support at Chappell that lie
received in Julesburg. We may all
differ as to the proper way of holding
revival but when church calls Il
man like Mr. Shannon to hold meet

the church at least aught to get into
the game hard and do all they can to
help the Evangelist. Mr.. Shannon on
next Sunday afternoon will give one
Of his popular addresses to men only
and we can say to all of the readers
OF this paper that they will find that
if they attend this meeting that they
will find that Dan will not resort to
the vulgar in any way, we do not
mean by this that he will not speak
the truth and speak it in no uncer-
tain language but it will be an address
that man will not be ashamed 20
have his son hear and it will be an ad
dress we'll worth ones time listening,
to.
Mr. Shannon remembers very kindly
his visit to Julesburg and will welcome
the attendance Of just as many from
here as can possibly attend his meet :

Burke Judge Of the 18th. District will

The Denver Post is keeping at it
pretty faithfully in abusing and mis-
representing Gov. Carlson. But as
was said by Gen. Bragg about Cleve-
land, We love him for the enemies he
made" The people of Colorado love
Carlson because he will not permit the
Post to dictate to him. It can neither
buy nor browbeat him. The more the
Post pitches into him the more friends
it makes for him.-Boulder Herald
