Sans boys shall have sweaters and
they knit from morn till eve, in fac.
1t would seem, some must knit in their
sleep. The other day Mrs. H. M. John.
ston accompanied her husband on a few
hours visit to Glenwood, the "soldicr
boys sweater" came right along. She
did rest the needles long enough to en-
JOY luncheon at the Williams.

this attraction.
A card on our desk reminds us that |
l.. G. Bauer Of the circulation depart |
ment of the Pueblo Chieftain breezed
into our office this week, gave us few
items on newspaperdom, and then blew
out again. We're hoping that Fay
King will become detached from that
big Post some day, long enough to pay
Glenwood Springs a visit, and mayhaps
find time to take peep in the office
of this twig. Fay is the girl with an
original idea, only some folks can't see
it.
Letters from Walter G. Korn and
Richard McGuirk are most glowing in
their praise of conditions at Camp Fun
ston. The young men are now in full
uniform and doing regular drill ser
vice. They have cots side by side and
both belong to Battery F. 341st Field
artillery, Camp Funston, Kans. Pvt.

dress girls. Walter smoesk and Dick
eats fudge and "It's Long Way
From Home.
Considerable surprise was expressed
in Glenwood yesterday over the ex-
emption by the district board. of Ed
ward B. Everett Jr., as the majority
of our people were under the impress,
sion that Mr.. Everett had only asked
for stay of enlistment in order that
he might put his business affairs in
better shape, and his request was con-
sidered but reasonable and right and
was recommended by the local board.
On what grounds the exemption was
granted the Post is not advised.
Ed. Todhunter came down from AS
pen Saturday to spend couple of days
with his family. He reports that every
man is working in Aspen and that the
once famous silver camp is again hust-
ling. He states that rooming houses
are taxed to their full capacity. Water
has been encountered in the Hope tuu-
mel and this convinces the experienced
miner that only short distance sepa-
rates the breast Of the tunnel from the
body of silver ore they expect to find
in this lower workings. a...-.

After an extensive trip covering
large part of the county, Agent Alfred,
is again in his office trying to get
order out of stack of mail and accu-
mulated business. Mr.. Alfred has been
investigating the results of treating
seed potatoes with corrosive sublimate
and in checking up it has been found
there is an increased yield of from 600
10 900 pounds per acre, where seed
was properly treated, over that of the
yield of untreated seed.
Miss Gladys Painter, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. J. B. Painter of this city,
departed Thursday evening for Ames,
Iowa where she will enter the Iowa
State Agricultural college, taking a
course in domestic science. Miss Paint
er is very ambitious young woman
else she would not undertake the task
she has planned for herself following
SO closely on her recovery from an at
tack of fever. The friends she has
made during her short stay in Glen
wood will wish her unbounded success
in her chosen work.
