OLYMPIAN GOES UP
SIDE OF Mt. LOOKOUT

AZ
An Olympian four-cylinder Gypsy
roadster was driven up Mt. Lookout,
which is just outside of Denver, Colo,
by Annie L. Bell, a local automobile
enthusiast, without once taking on
water. This is considered a great
feat because 80 per. cent of the cars
making this run have to take advant-
age of the watering troughs which
are placed alongside the mountain
with hose attachments for the con-
venience of the drivers. Miss Bell
averaged better than Is miles to a
gallon of gasoline on the run up the
mountain.
81 am in love with my Olympian
Gypsy Roadster" writes Miss Bell.
81 have driven it over 5000 miles
without one cent Of expense and have
the original air in all tires. I never
found a car so easy to handle and
which hangs to the road at a 35-mile-
an-hour speed as this car does. 1t
always is admired when l drive
through the city traffic and I have
sufficient confidence in it that l in
tend touring this summer from Den
yer to Boston with just another girl
friend. Motoring is my chief amuse-
ment and | believe it is the greatest
cure for what so many women cal

Attention, knitters!

Denver, Colo, Aug. 8, 1917.
To the Chairmen of all Chapters and
Auxiliaries at Large:
An appeal has come to the Ameri-
can Red Cross from Major Grayson
M. P. Murphy, Red Cross commission
err for Europe, for 100000 knitted
sets, comprising sweater, muffler,
wristlets and socks, and we, in turn
are about to call on the chapters
throughout the United States for the
production of these articles.
To simplify the knitting as much as
possible, we now have in the printers
hands a new and complete manual of
instructions for making the several
articles required.
The Red Cross supply bureau is ar
ranging for a large supply of yarn
and knitting needles to meet the re-
quirementsr Of chapters.
Within the next two weeks we ex-
pect to have the knitting circular
ready for distribution to chapters and
large shipments of yarn will be COM
ing into the various branch supply
houses.
Desperate need will exist for these
articles among the soldier and civil
population of France and our other
allies before we can get these articles
made.
To expedite the completion of the
work, we would like to have you start
at once and without waiting for the
new manual to prepare for the work
and we suggest the following:
/. For in your chapter a commit
tee on knitting.
2. Mobilize all the available knit
tiers in your chapter, branches and
auxiliaries, so that when the knitting
manual is received, everyone who can
knit will be prepared to start at once,
3. Make it clear that we seek the
aid in this big undertaking of all
knitters whether members of the Rec
Cross or not.
4. A group of persons qualified te
instruct in knitting would be a great
help to the committee.
AS soon as we learn what proper
ton of the total of this large order is
to be cared for in each section of thu
country, we shall advise with you al
, to the share of the total which you
' chapter should undertake.
Please have all the members under
stand that we do not want the leas
cessation of effort of workers in tn
2 production of surgical dressings ant
) hospital garments. 1t will be you.
: problem to organize to get more work
ers interested and the more constan
effort of those who are now giving
5 so much of their time to the work O
the Red Cross.
Please impress upon everyone VIII
is knitting that we do not want then
to discontinue any work which the.
have in hand. Have them work indus
triously on all knitting they can turf
: out until the manual arrives.
Very truly yours,
S. P. MORRIS,
Director Mountain Division, New Mu

E CROSS NOTES


The Red Cross market day held in
Culbertson was a decided success
from a financial standpoint. A large
number of farmers came to town, not
withstanding the fact that the rye
harvest had already begun. The
live stock and produce contributed by
the farmers all brought good prices
at the sale and many cash donations
were made. Taking the subscriptions,
donations, the market sale, the dinner
by the Red Cross ladies, the ball game
and all other contributions, the sum
amounts to something like $1,000
raised by the Culbertson Red Cross
auxiliary.

Two years ago silver sold in New
York at A cents per ounce, and last
week it sold in the same market for
Is cents. In financial circles no one
believes that the price Of the white
metal has reached the top. Predic-
lions are freely made that silver dol
lars may soon become intrinsically as
valuable as gold dollars. Twenty
years ago Senator Teller predicted
that, during the lives of some then in

In this country the birth rate is low

negroes than among whites. This is
believed to be due to the well known
fact that mixed races, after the first

REASONS FOR BELIEVING U. s
WILL KEEP OUT OF WORLD
WAR.

Between the years 1898 and 1907,
! when Washington, the first 1ndepend-
ent, was in the presidential chair, and
Adams, the first Republican was pres
ident and Jefferson the first Democrat
was the nations chief executive. Eng
land and France seized no less than
1000 ships flying the Stars and Stripes
and destroyed $eoO,0O0,0oo worth of
American property.
4 But neither the first Independent,
nor the first Republican, nor the first
Democratic president went to war with
England and France. All three of
those great presidents settled for
these damages without an appeal to
the sword.
Wilson can follow the precedents
set by his ,illustrious predecessors and
keep his country from being drawn in
to the whirlpool OF the present world
I war
The refusal of citizen to neighbor
with ruthless character Is one thing,
and the engaging in a personal COM
bat with such an individual is another
and quite different thing. It is rea-
sonable to believe that our peace low
ing President will be guided by similar
considerations in his dealings with
Germany.
It was quite proper for this country
to sever its friendly relations with q
country that would disregard, the rules
Of warfare generally Recognized by
civilized men. But 1t does not follow
that because friendly relations have
been severed war should follow, any
more than that personal fights should
follow the severance OF friendships
between individuals.
During the great St Louis Expo
sition there hung on the walls Of the
art museum in that city two pictures.
one representing peace, the other
war. The picture that glorified war
showed great soldiers like Alexander
and Napoleon riding over dead and
dying men to bloody victories. The
pictures Of peace portrayed hands,
myriadh Of hands, ,hnmanity's hands
stretching upwards towards the sky
gnarled hands Of labor and withered
hands OF age, eager hands Of youth
and helpless hands of babes, rugged,
hands OF men and delicate hands of
womenhands asl aspiration stretch
ing upward to the sky for Divine in
SEPARATION toward happiness and
peace.
Everyone knows that our president
desires that the picture Of peace shall
4 be typical of his country, and your
country and our country.

THE HIGHWAY COMMISSION.

The raid Of the bridge and culvert
combine on the State Highway Com
mission, seems destined to defeat. For
many years this combine made easy
money, but the work of the commission
cut the graft out Of most Of their con-
tracts. The present system OF state
supervision must be continued, If the
public is to be protected from the
greed of these grafters.
IT is true that the State Highway
Commission is costly, but 1t is safe to
say that its cost represents but a
small fraction OF the sum which 1t has
saved the taxpayers of the state.
