The system of which the brain
is a part is like complicated piece
of m az hinery; but, unlike a
machine, it has within itself fhe
power OF improvement. 1t is never
stationary: it is either gainiug in
capacity and power OF it is losing.
If we are not improving in our
ability to study, to learn, to reason,

NeWSy Notes From the
GEORGETOWN District

Miss Anna Boyle is visiting
friends in Colorado Springs.
Doc Rosenblum returned on
Tuesday from a visit in Boulder.
Miss Louise Coggshall came up
from Denver last week for visit
IN Georgetown.
A bouncing baby boy, weighing
nine pounds, arrived to brighten
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. James
Lucas on Friday of last week. DIR.
Kerby reports mother and son o.
K. and says he has hopes for the
recovery of jim.
Naylor Lake is now open to
the public, the custodian dad"
Shaque being again in charge.
During the past two years this
popular resort has grown famous
for fishing and an all around good
time, for all who visit there, and
the news of its being open win be
greatefully received my many.
Messrs. Laurence 7. Criley and
Manning j Barber were pass
engers to Golden on last Sunday
morning where they spent the day.
Laurence has been complaining for
some time that he must go
down to the valley on business and
determined to take guard with
him. The question now is why
the guard, and especially this par
ticular one?
The wagon roads are being
cleared of snow to the Waldorf and
Santiago mines in East Argentine
where large tonnage is awaiting
shipment. A motor truck that
will make three trips each day and
capable of hauling more than three
tons, depending on road conditions,
each trip is being considered very
favorably by a number of the
lessees.
Superintendent Lancaster of the
Mid Colorado mines has the mill
at the base of the mountain in
running order and is sanguine that
the mine will be on paying basis
in the near future. The recent
Improvements consist of hotation
units, Symons disc grinder and
double deck Deitscher tables which
seem to be peculiarly adapted fol
the successful treatment of the
Mineral Greek ore.
Mr.. and Mrs. John N. McGritl
of Fort Collins, arrived in George.
town last week on their honey
moon. Mrs. McGritf, nee Crist
was raised in Georgetown, and
her friends in this place are num-
bered by her acquaintance, who
one and all joined in the express
ion of their sincerest wishes for
happiness. Mr.. McGriff is pros
porous commission merchant at
Fort Collins, where the couple will
make their home.
Now that the mine has been
thoroughly ventilated there is re
newed activity on the Onondaga
holdings. An interesting new
discovery is reported on the 1SO-
foot level where cross cut is being
driven to the foot wall of the vein
revealing large streaks of solid
galena ore. Development has not
progressed sufficiently at this time
to determine the full extent of
these ore bodies, but from ore now
exposed regular shipments can be
maintained indefinitely.

Simple Rules to Observe Sug-
gested by Public Safety

To relieve the strain on freight
transportation facilities which is
reaching its peak with the combina-
ton of military demands and the
movements of fall crops. the Penn
sylvania committee of public safety
is urging shippers and receivers of

certain classes of equipment to eX-
coed the 10 per cent. in which case
special instructions will apply.
Load light weight or bulky freight

Have your shipment in car so as
to permit prompt unloading at desti-

to eliminate damage in transit.
Where you have been shipping less
than carload freight daily and send
ing via transfer point, hold up your
two or three days to make
full carloads and bill to destination
Use Drays or Motor Trucks

use of freight cars for moving food
from one point to another within the

trains.
Furnish billing agent full instruc-
tions permitting way-bill being made
up before loading is completed.
Consign shipment to final destina
ton wherever possible and discour-
age shipments that require changing
destination in transit.
Do not bill shipments by circuitous
route in order to avoid the effect of
The use of all substitute transit ia
cilities is advised to lessen the load
on the railway freight service. Local
of railroad officials have
been appointed in eighty cities
throughout the country to promote
freight transit efficiency. r. L. O'Don-
nel assistant general manager Penn
