THE OLDSMOBILE PARTY.

Last year many came in from dis
tant points to visit the Mesa Verde
National park and, SO far AZ was
learned, all were highly pleased with
the trip thru the San Juan and the
visit to the ruins, but we were par
ticularly impressed with the remarks
made by a party who had come a long
distance to see the ruins of the an
cient cliff dwellers. He was on his
return trip and in conversation re-
marked that the San Juan people do
not make half the claims they are en-
titled to make concerning the San
Juan and the Mesa Verde park. He
stated that he had seen much of the
world but that his trip to the Mesa
Verde was the most interesting and
wonderful he had ever taken. He re-
marked that, when the people know
more about the ruins there and that
there is an auto road leading to them
we may expect that thousands of
people will take this trip just as
thousands are visiting the Yellowstone
park, the Yosemite valley and the
mountains of Switzerland. We inform
ed him that the people here know
that the Mesa Verde is wonderful
place but they do not always realize
that there are millions of people in
this country who have never heard
of the Mesa Verde National park. For
this reason our people have not been
in the habit of advertising the park
as they should. However, the chief
reason why no more is written about
the park is that there is SO much to
see in the park that the ordinary mind
becomes bewildered and can find no
words to picture the scenes. One
finds words inadequate to express his
thoughts and picture the impressions
made.
| Many have gone to the park this
year but the Oldsmobile party from
Denver stirred up more interest than
ever in visiting the park, for the rea-
son that it was the first formal run
into the park by any club, which ar
ranged the first formal writeup of
a trip and the park.
1t vii be remembered that the
Oldsmobile party shipped from Du-
range to Silverton over the D. & R.
G. and then went over the mountains
to Ouray, down to Montrose and back
by the way of the black canon Of
the Gunnison. 1t was our pleasure
to inform the party that if they went
back by way of Silverton that they
would see between Durango and
Ouray some of the really greatest
wonders of the wcrld, including the
Animas canon, the beautiful noun
tain city of Silverton and the most
picturesque ride of their lives
over the mountains to ouray.
The party deliberated long
and earnestly as to the ad-
visibility of returning that way and
the writer did not hesitate 10 insist

and every member of the party en-
joyed every minute of the trip. Full
praise to the Oldsmobils and all of
them are saying that they certainly

we will go to Mesa Verde again.

Don't Wait For the Fatal Stages of

range Peoples Experiences.
Occasional attacks of backache,
bladder ills, headaches and dizzy
spells are frequent symptoms of kid
ney disorders. It's an error to neglect
these ills. The attacks may pass off
for time but generally return with
greater intensity. Don't delay a min
ute. Begin taking Doan's Kidney
Pills, and keep up their use until the
desired results are obtained. Good
work in Durango proves the effective
ness of this great kidney remedy.
Mrs. c. E. Knowlton, SAL Ninth
St., Durango, says: 81 was feeling
very badly and had no ambition and
my limbs ached. When / attempted
to pick up anything, sharp pains
darted across my back. Another of
the family had used Doan's Kidney
Pills, SO 1 bought some from ]. L.

relief in a short time. / continued

that they should make the trip as
the first formal party to 60 over the
Alps of America. We are glad that
we advised as we did and we are
glad to learn thru the following let
ter from the manager Of the party
that none were disappointed. 1t
might be well to state here that prac-
tically every member Of the party in
sisted that the writer should accom-
pany the party over the mountains
to Denver and it will suffice when
we state that we are sorry that il
was impossible for US to do so. How
ever, we did state that we might be
in q position to accept a similar in
vitation when the Oldsmobile party
makes its third annual run next sum
mer.
1t might be well to state that the
Mesa Verde will get some excellent
advertising from these Oldsmobilists
Not only will each have good word
to say for the Mesa Verde and the
San Juan people, but it will be re-
msmbered that the party had their of
ficial Photographer, Mr.. Eastman

time taking pictures. Time and again
did he line up the party at prominent
places. These pictures will be seer
by many and in connection with the
trip will attract the attention of many
who otherwise might not become in.

In verification of the statement
that the party enjoyed the Silvertor
trip it is well to state that in due time
we received a message from the Sill
verton Commercial club which clear
ly indicated their appreciation of the
interest taken in the Oldsmobilt
party and the party trip to Silverton
thru San Juan county and on t.
Ouray.
The following from the manager Of
the party will interest everybody il
this section of the coutry.
"The whole party reached Denver
safely on Sunday evening as pei

Did Not Say She Would Not Lift a Finger to Aid the Liberty Loan.

New York, Oct. 4.-Mrs. Henry O. Havemeyer of New York, who was quoted as having said in an address at Baltimore Tuesday night before a meeting of suffragists that she would not lift a finger to aid the Liberty loan because women who demanded true democracy at home were thrown into jail for so doing, declared today that she had been incorrectly quoted She declared she never had advised anyone not to buy Liberty bonds and that she not only worked for the sale of the securities in the first loan, but had subscribed for some of the sec- ond issue of the bonds.
 '1 am a suffragist who favors ac- ton by constitutional amendment" she said. "and I feel very keen1y about my party. I said that. feeling as do, I could not speak for the loan as heartily as I might wish. I also ex- pressed a wish that American women might be given democracy SO that we, like the women of England. would be better able to reveal the true sp1endor of American womanhood."

GREAT RED CROSS PARADE
 IN NEW YORK CITY
10000 Women, Young and Middle Aged, Were Greeted With Tempests of Cheers,

| New York, Oct. 4.-Fifth avenue, which has echoed the tread of many i marching feet through tempests of l cheers since America shouldered arms, paid homage today to the nations her oines-the nurses of the Red Cross. It was the first great parade of the
 American Red Cross and although the | 20, 900 women, young and middle-ag they marched amazingly we'll. They appeared as representatives of the first, second and third lines of relief back of the battle line enlisted to ing men. The hundreds of thousands who had gathered to do them honor,
 paid a tribute of respect all the more
 impressive because it was less bois-
 terous than that accorded the regi- ments which have swung down the
 avenue on their way to training camps.

Others wore dark blue ulsters and still others blue serge dresses with military capes thrown back to show the red flannel lining.
 Several base hospital units were in line with stretcher bearers and am bulances-grim reminders of the work that is to come. Many of the ann were motor emergency kitchens. One of the motor service units represented the District of Columbia. At the head of this division marched Mrs. Joseph us Daniels. wife of the secretary of the navy.
 Many of the marchers carried ser vice flags denoting that sons or hus- bands are in the service of their coun- try. As these flags passed the review ing stand they were sa1uted by Sec retary Daniels, Surgeon General Cor gas, Governor Edge of New Jersey and Major General Eli D. Hoyle, com mander of the department of the east, almost as punctiliously as were the Stars and Stripes when they went by at the head of each division.

NARROWING EXPERIENCE OF SURVIVORS OF THE ITAScA.
They Had Been Tossed About in an
 Open Boat Nine Days.

An Atlantic Port, Oct. 4.-Twenty- four members of the crew of the American steamer Itasca, picked up after being tossed about in an open boat nine days from the time the Itasca foundered- were brought here today by a steamer from southern ports. The Itasca, bound from Bermu- da to New York, sank in. a tropical hurricane 250 miles off Bermuda. Cap tain w. Harold Bond of Rockland Me-, went down with his ship. His wife was among those saved.
 The survivors, who were rescued about 250 miles off Nantucket, had suffered intensely from privation and exposure. Chief Engineer Elwell of Rockland, Me, died from exhaustion and T. Smith of Bermuda. a fineman, who went insane and drank sea water when the fresh water supply in their boat ran out, died on the rescuing ship soon after he had been taken aboard.
