We are beginning to think lot of
our boys and girls. We don't love
them harder than folks used to but
it is a bigger and finer and broader,
wiser love. Its more useful and
protecting love. A practical thing
and none the less sentimental for all
that.
Do good things for your son. good
sense and good breeding will gain
wealth and social standing. A firm
purpose, a clean life, square morals
and courage are the chief assets to
honorable citizenship and ambition.
When putting = tack in place
where it is difficult to hold it with
the fingers thrust it through little
strip of paper which win enable it to
easily be held in place without the
danger Of pounding tho fingers.
Fresh fruits should be eaten plenti-
fully as they are better medicines
for both the physical and mental
man than all the doctors can prepare.
Fruits with acid have highly bene-
ficial effect on the general health
~ they tone up the system and make
one feel glad he is living. Try them
and see.
Mother-made boys and men are the
best in the world but. unfortunately,
mother sometimes leaves the job only
half finished and q causal observa-
tion of the manners Of the average
man in eating houses, railway trains
and other places, leaves the impress
sion that the mothers son soon for
got his training.
We had planned the trip for sever
al days but the weather man inter-
fcred. However, on this particular
Thursday morning We decided to
start. The sky was still heavily
hung with dark clouds and rain
threatened, but later In the day the
sky ;elsarsd sna ths-s sun shown warm
and bright. Our first intention was
make the trip to Montrose which is
about seventy miles and return the
same day, but owing to = late start
out Of Gunnison, We thought best to
go down one day and return the next,
consequently the writer accompanied
by two others left home about
eleven o'clock in Ford car. We
found roads rough between Gunni-
son and Sapinero and could not make
very good time. However, we made
Sapinero q little after twelve and
had an excellent lunch at the eating
house which Is presided over by Mrs.
Santureni. She il also post mistress
and with the growing demands Of
the large tourist trade this hotel is
doing thriving business.
After about = half hour we re-
sumed our journey. Between Sapin-
ero and Cimarron the scenery is most
beautiful. At first we travelled for
some distance along the West wall
of the famous Black Canon gradually
climbing higher and higher, hundreds
of feet below you see high walls Of
solid rock with the clear beautiful
Gunnison river at the bottom. This
stream seems as . silver thread wind
ing it's way in and out among rocks
and crags. In some places it is still
and calm and perhaps only few
feet on it is dashing madly against
the rocks resembling some wild
beast foaming, fighting for freedom.
After following the canon some
miles the road changes its course
and starts its upward climb toward
the Blue Mesa where the road is as
smooth rs . boulevard and wide
enough to pass cars most any place
while the Quaking Asp and tall pines
are certainly refreshing after the
hot dusty climb.

THE POLICEMEN'S WAGES.

In the matter of an increase in
police salaries, the Rip-saw some
time ago declared that Where
there's a will, there's way"
The city commissioners must be
congratulated on discovering that
fact.
The city commissioners at last
have found ways and means for
giving the policemen their needed
and desired increase in salaries.
This achievement has come none
too soon. Already, the depart
ment has lost several of its best
men and others have been on
the point of leaving.
The police department is one Of
the most important with which
the commissioners have to deal.
In the past, it has been an eff
cient and creditable department.

with the story Of the first schools

events.

POETS CORNER
THE MOTHER ON THE SIDE
WALK,

The mother on the sidewalk, as
the troops are marching by,
Is the mother of Old Glory that is
waving in the sky.
Men have fought to keep it splen-
did, men have died to keep
it bright,
But that flag was born Of woman
and her sufferings day and
night;
IT'S her sacrifice has made it, and
once more we ought to pray
For the brave and loyal mother
of the boy that goes away.
There are days Of grief before
her, there are hours that she
will weep,
There are nights of anxious wait
ing when her fear will ban
ish sleep;
She has heard her country calling
and has risen to the test,
And has placed upon the altar OF
the nation s need, her best.
And no man shall ever suffer in
the turmoil of the fray
The anguish of the mother Of the
boy who goes away.
You may boast mems deeds Of
glory, you may tell their
courage great,
But to die is easier service than
alone to sit and wait.
And I hail the little mother, with
the tear-stained face and
grace
Who has given the Flag a sol.
dier-she s the bravest of the
brave.
And that banner we are proud of
with it's red and blue and
white
Is lasting tribute holy to all
mothers love of right.

Public welfare and good business
policy demand that this depart
ment be not permitted to 60 to
pieces.
One honest, trained, efficient
patrolman is worth two new, un-
tried men. The fines for the
year past warrant liberal wage
to the members of the police
department. The Big Interests
should not be permitted to alb
sorb the best men, the men whom
the city has developed and
trained to high efficiency.
Nothing within reason is too
good for the men who work seven
days a week, long hours each day
and at hazardous occupation.
Satisfied men ever are jealous to
do their full duty. Good bust
ness policy, alone, demands this
increase so slowly and haltingly
given.

THE PUBLIC BADLY NEEDS
COMFORT STATIONS.

The saloon is a haven Of refuge
for any and all men desiring
toilet facilities. Now that the
saloons have been banished,
thousands of men hardly know
where to 60 to attend to urgent
calls of nature.
Women shoppers depend on the
toilet facilities of the department
stores. The hotels are used by
few men but even they usually
feel impelled to get needless
shine for the shoes in return for
the toilet accommodations. Some
hotels even have cards on doors
of toilet rooms to effect that
fee is charged for their use.
Duluth has thousands of men
from factories, docks and shops
whose grimy appearance makes
them unwelcome in hotel or Of
flee building. If demands Of ma
ture are disregarded, disaster
and even disease often follow.
European cities recognize the
needs of human bodies and pro-
vide toilet facilities which are
used without mock modesty.
Mayor Magney seems to have
used his head, as usual, when he
recently secured an option for a
lease on No. 528 West Superior
St., for the purpose of establish
ing a comfort station and read
ing room where formerly saloon
was conducted.
West Duluth has one comfort
station. The single one in the
central section of the city, down
under the aerial bridge, has been
closed by the government and
patrons are barred at the point
Of a bayonet.
A reasonable supply Of comfort
stations is imperative for the
convenience and welfare of the
public. Mayor Magney's initia-
tive is to be commended and the
good work should not stop with
the one station in prospect.

PHILLIPS SEEKS TO SAVE.

While the Rip-saw always feels
sympathy for the man who loses
position, many a head could
come off in both city and county
service without any real damage
to such service. On the other
hand, the public treasury would
receive much benefit.
The Rip-saw knows nothing Of
the real merits of the case in
which commissioner Phillips re-
Gently discharged L. P. Green,
late superintendent of the aerial
bridge.
Mr.. Green has gone before
the civil service commission for
the purpose Of retaining his for
mer position. Mr.. Phillips de-
clares that the discharge was
made largely to reduce expenses
Of the department. and that four
remaining men can properly do
the work formerly done by five.
Further than that, Mr.. Phillips
charges neglect Of duty.
The city halls civil service
system does not claim the high
est respect from the general pub
lie. If Mr.. Phillips let Mr.. Green
60 solely as matters Of economy
and discipline, he is entitled to
the support Of every citizen and
the civil service commission
should make no hasty or half
baked decision
