fellowship.
The Midsummer Recital Thursday
evening was quite success and the
Ladies' Aid Society wishes to thank

Grafton. Every number was a gem
and some of the soloists we're en-

ZION CHURCH..

On last Sunday morning the pas
tor began the promised series of SER
mons from the subject, Christian
Science and the Atonement," before
large and interested audience. The
discussion went straight to the heart
of the subject, and left absolutely no
argument against his contention that
Mrs. Eddy's book, Science and
Health is directly opposed to the
word of God. The great congregation
was visibly moved by the force of
the truth. The same discussion will
continue next Sunday morning.
At the evening service the fifth in
the series of illustrated sermons,
From Creation to the Cross" was
given. The auditorium was again
filled with an appreciative congrega-
tion. That these services are help
full is manifested by the intense in
terest. Next Sunday evening the
sixth sermon will present the scenes
which make up the crucifixion. No
one should miss this service.
Mrs. Over and Edna have written
that they are having an enjoyable
time in Kansas City; the heat wave
having been broken by cooling show
ers.
The Colorado statesman., 1916-08-26

and as this greater power is yelling
up from within, the desire to realize,
achieve and attain the greater, will
necessarily become stronger and
stronger, which means a decided in
crease in the force of ambition.
Those who look upon ambition and
competition as obstacles to the well
fare of their business, should remem-
Der that nothing can be an obstacle
that tends to call forth greater pow
ers, envolve better methods and in
spire more effective efforts. When
you apply yourself effectively, you
will constantly gain ground as Cam
mel and Company has done. No mat
ter, how many competitors you may
have, there is no greater satisfaction
than that of moving steadily forward.
The greatest enemy of our race to-
day is the tendency to live, think, and
act below the mark of efficiency. but
this enemy. ambition will largely re-
move, as the increase of ambition will
not only produce stronger desire
for efficiency. but will tend TO elimi-
nate every wrong mood, which stands
in the way of the realization of that
ambition. Hence, this progress of the
Cammel and Company is another i'll
ustration of the last becoming first
and the rejected Stone becoming the
Chief Stone of the Corner.

STARkWEATHER DESIGNATED
FOR STATE SENATOR.

James C. Starkweather, who has
been designated by the Republican
Assembly as one of it's candidates for
the State Senate to be voted upon at
the Primary Election on September
18th, is one of the best-known attor-
neys in Denver. He resides at 238
South Lincoln street and his law Of
fees are at 337-338 Majestic build
ing. While actively engaged for the
past twenty years in the practice of
his profession, he has always taken a
lively interest in public affairs. A
Jealous Republican, he is the presi-
dent of the South Side Hughes-Fair-
banks Republican Club. He was born
at Pawtucket, Rhode Island, and is a
graduate of Brown University, an in
stitution which numbers among its
alumni Charles Evans Hughes, the
Republican candidate for the Presi-
dency. He is member of Union
Lodge No. 7, A. F. & A. M, and has
been president of the Colorado So
ciety, Sons of the Revolution. Mr..
Starkweather has always been a
staunch, firm and uncompromising
friend of the colored race and has
numbered among his clients many of
our best people; and at the ensuing
Primary Election, he will doubtless
receive cordial and hearty support
from Colored voters.

THE PROGRESS OF A YOUNG
COMPANY.
(Communuicated.)

The removal of the Cammel & Com
pany, Undertakers and Embalmers, to
their new and spacious quarters, 241S
Welton street, where they have every
modern convenience to serve the
wants of the bereaved, proves that
there is more ambition among our
young business men today than ever
before in Denver.
This young company, virtually in
its infancy, started amid adversities,
but by prompt attention, courteous
treatment, right prices, and bearing
in mind always, that progress was the
watchword of all existence, are today
able to be put in a class by them
selves Having the best equipped
funeral parlors for Negroes in the
West
Their Receiving Parlors are large,
well lighted and neatly furnished;
Chapel strictly up to date, with
Family Room set aside, in order that
the family might be alone during the
services. A Rest Room upstairs for
the ladies'; a Special Vault and Cool
ing Room for the preservation of
bodies for an unlimited period OF
time, which will eliminate the anxiety
of family and friends as to whether
the deceased can be kept.
To certain class of thinkers, this
rising ambition may appear to be a
sign of increasing materiality and
selfishness, but life is becoming more
complex and the demands upon each
individual life are increasing to such
an extent, that it becomes necessary
to accomplish far more, in order to
supply the demands, and in order to
accomplish more, there must be
greater ambition, likened to the Cam
mel and Company's.
Great achievements, higher attain
ments, remarkable discoveries and eX-
traordinary possibilities are becoming
more numerous and more evident,
and the public mind is constantly be-
ing impressed with these things, be-
cause when we are constantly in the
presence of the wonderful and are
told time and again that all can
achieve the wonderful ambition soon
will be fired up and, become a tremen-
dous power to enhance one toward
similar progress as the CAM
MEL COMPANY has made.
Modern education and scientific
training is awakening more and more
of the greatness inherent in us all,

THE A. T. LEWIS AND SON DRY
GOODS CO.

A STORE OF STORES-the gen
eral public opinion as expressed by
the thousands of patrons in and out
side the city of Denver and state of
Colorado, as it supplies the needs in
every particular which the public de-
mands. So popular has this firm be-
come that the management decides
to enlarge the building, creating more
accommodation for purchasers and
space for displaying the latest addi-
ton to their stock of choice goods.
The up-to-date fashions, the new ere
ations and designs in woplen's gar
ments and mems suits, etc, at mod
crate prices beyond competition, can
not help from forming a feature of
special attractiveness, and in con-
junction with the result brought about
thru the capable and diligent efforts
of Miss Alyce Ham, the energetic
publicity agent, who spares no pains
in keeping the public in touch with
the progress of the firm and its new
importations, the A. T. Lewis & Son
Store Company, fills the role of a
household necessity and has become
veritable associate with every fam
lily in Colorado.
