work of the Red Cross, locally, as well
as nationally.
The need Of strong decisive work
in the interest of the Red Cross, both
in financing the national association,
and IN doing personal work at the To-
cal headquarters, is so apparent that
none can disregard the call

This is very painful and dangerous
disease. In almost every neighborhood
someone has died from it before medi-

summoned. The right way is to have
a bottle Of Chamberlain s Collie and Di-

be prepared for it. Mrs Charles Eny-

AN OUTING IN THE MOONLIGHT

The Glenwood Springs teachers were
entertained by Superintendent and Mrs
Underwood last Wednesday from four
to nine O'Clock by moonlight ride,
bacon and beef steak fry, and corn
roast in the mountains. Scouts had
evidently been sent out in advance, IS
things happened entirely too fortunate
ly to have been left to chance. They
finally came to a cozy nook among the
evergreen trees guarded on all sides
by great crags and precipices, just -
the moon came over the western peak
in cloudless sky and lighted the
sparkling waters of merry brook
which chartered and gurgled through
the grove to break in silvery water
fall just by an ideal camping place
where the moonlight stole among the
trees.
1t was here that they danced the
Virginia reel and picked wild choke
cherries until the men of the faculty
had built the fires, fried the beef and
UacoH, anu roasted luscious edrs VI yei-
low corn, which Miss Rhone pronounced

company. Apparently no one in the
hall was able to speak with authority
on this subject and the question was
not answered.
Carleton L. Hubbard said that he
was certain from the remarks he had
heard from citizens on the subject that
they would heartily endorse plan &c
buy both companies and thus do away
with the dissension of the past, bot
he was not favorably inclined toward
the purchase of the Mutual alone. The
way out of the dilemma he thought was
to purchase and combine the two
plants. He had heard considerable ex-
preston from the people on the sub
Ject and was quite sure that was the
general feeling of the taxpayers.
The mayor then named J. F. Mccoy
as the city's appraiser and after Mr.
McCoy's name had been inserted in
the resolution the same was passed
and the clerk was instructed to notify
the stockholders of the Glenwood Light
and Water company and the Public
Utilities commission of the passage. Of
the resolution and also of the intention
of the city to purchase both plants.
And thus was action initiated look
ing to the ultimate ownership of all
the electric lighting and heating facil-
tiles for the city of Glenwood Springs.

NEW OFFICERS FOR RED
CROSS CHAPTER

An interesting meeting of the Glen.
wood Red Cross chapter was held at
the Glenwood Motor club Tuesday ev-
ening, ending with the election of OF.
ficers for the ensuing year.
President Chas. w. Taylor called the
meeting to order and stated that the
election of officers was to be the chief
business of the session. c. X. Mcta--
W. Taylor to succeed himself as chair
man, but Mr.. Taylo. declined tire fur
ther honor, saying that he had other
activities that would make it impos-
sible for him longer to serve the So
ciety.
Although urged to serve as chair
man another year Mr.. Taylor insisted
that he could not do so and H. i. Over
beck was then nominated and elected
as head of the local organization
For secretary NJ. j. Mayes was nom
mated but he declined the honor OH the
ground that he worll not br able to
give the office the time and at.sut' m
it deserved. Ollie 1norson was then
nominated and unanimously elected to
tris important office.
For treasurer J. s. Hum nominated
John R. Weir who was elected by ac-
clamation.
Mrs. j. w. Cummins who has served
so faithfully as vice chairman, was re-
elected to succeed herself, although she
protested that some of the youngc.
members should assume this response.
bility and bear the load for term.
The naming of chairman of the
military relief and another for the
civilian relief was left to the chair
man while the vice chairman was au-
thorized to appoint chairman of the
gauze room and another for the gar.
ment room.
The executive committee is to con-
sist Of the Chairman, vice chairman,
secretary and treasurer and five others
whom these officers shall select.
A motion was carried ratifying the
action of the former executive commit
tee in waving jurisdiction to the west
ern portion Of the county, including
the town of Rifle, any further waiver
of territory to be left to the new ex-
ecutive committee. Considerable dis
cussion on this subject indicated that
the society, favored the plan originally
recommended from national headquar-
ters-that Of directing the business
through one chapter located at the
county seat. This seemed to be the
trend of the argument although this
question did not become real issue
in the meeting.
The meeting was well attended and
the interest was good throughout the
session. The next session will be held
at the call Of the chairman.

sTEP-FATHERS AND MOTHERS
FOR THE SOLDIERS FAMILIES

Washington, Oct. 2.-The American
Red Cross has begun training an army
of step-fathers and mothers for the
families of the country's fighting men
at the front, it was learned today.
The idea was recently announced.
The plan is now in progress of execu.
ton. Thousands of men and women
are being recruited to take up the six
weeks course which will fit them 10
man the domestic listening posts in
every city and town in the country.
Seventy-five thousand soldiers fam
lilies will have been aided in the con-
duet of their personal affairs by these
Red Cross helpers during the first year
of the war, it was estimated today
by W. Frank Persons, director general
of Red Cross and civilian relief.
The aid will run samut of family
affairs, from the giving of legal or
medical advice to keeping up the in
surance and seeing that the mortgage
is not neglected. The Red Cross ex-
perts will even assist financially in
bridging some of the more CHASTITY
chasms of unavoidable debt. This
help will take the form of temporary
loans.
1.-The problem of financing depend
ent families outright, however," SAID
the Red Cross man, "is too big a
problem. 1t should be cared for by
the government When the soldiers
and sailors return from the war, the
families entrusted to the care of the
Red Cross should be found to have
maintained, as far as is humanity pos
sible, the essential standards of home
life.
"This work will demand more than
a grant of money or temporary ref
erence to doctor, a lawyer or some
other advisor. 1t will frequently re-
quire long-continued acquaintance
with the family, systematic under
standing and appreciation of its
iuedisy its dphAby " dIIoAh IAchJ VIC
obstacles in the way and the applica-
tion of a practical common sense psy-
ehology of stimulating and encourag-
ing the family to surmount its diff
culties and achieve success"
The Red Cross has established in
stitutes in conjunction with 20 or 30
universities throughout the country
where six weeks of intensive training
will be given to those volunteer work
ers who wish to enlist in its service.
Assisting Director General Persons
at the national Red Cross headquarters
here are Dr. Thomas j. Riley, general
secretary of the Brooklyn bureau of
charities, and Porter R. Lee of the
staff of the New York School of Phil.
anthropy.
