BREWERS TO BENEFIT BY PRoHI.
BITION.

The sixty or more breweries in the
state of Michigan, which under the
dry law close April 80, 1918, viii very
likely be used for the manufacture
of denatured alcohol. The brewers
seem to be taking kindly to the sug-
gestion of Henry Ford that they thus
utilize their plants. 1t is believed that
they can make much greater profit on
denatured alcohol for automobile con-
sumption than on beer for human con-
sumption, and that many more men
viii be employed.

Eastidious Fox.

Waldemar Eitingon of New York re-
Gently presented live silver fox to the
Geological society of st. Louis. The
animal is valued at $3.50. The gift was
hurriedly accepted with profuse express
sions of thanks which are now in fair
way to be reconsidered and revised.
The fox refuses to eat ordinary food
and rejects practically everything of
fered it except fresh eggs. And fresh
eggs are go cents a dozen in st. Louis
scarce and apparently looking up.

THE LIQUOR TRAFFIC is THE
CuRSE

"The great curse of the laboring man
is intemperance. 1t has brought more
desolation to the wage-earners than
strikes, or war, or sickness, or death.
It is more unrelenting tyrant than
the grasping monopOlist. 1t has
caused little children TO be hungry and
cold, to grow up among evil associates,
to be reared without the knowledge of
God. 1t has broken up more homes
and wrecked more lives than any other
curse on the face of the earth. Car
dinal Gibbons.
And there will be intemperance as
long as the beverage traffic in alcoholic
liquors continues to exist.

Mr.. and Mrs. Clarence Workman
and family and Mrs. Lois Gaines
motored to Telluride, the latter to
visit the Adams family. old friends.
The party will be gone two or three
days.
Saturday Mathew Sullivan in his
railroad motor and Mrs. Clarence
Workman in her Grant Six collided on
one of the crossings. Mr. Sullivan
was thrown from his car and one OF
the automobile wheels was broken.
Although every one concerned was
considerably shaken, fortunately no
serious injury was done.
Some of our own young boys got
in bad Friday night in what proved
fortunately to be of no harmful nat
ure. The boys had a lot of apples,
and as John Anderson drove by in
his car, the boys gave him pretty
fierce bombardment. Green apples,
thrown with fifteen-year-old muscles,
hurt about as badly as rocks and
several struck Mr.. Anderson in the
face. OF course it was meant in fun.
but we should remember to respect
the rights OF others. Had the wind
shield been broken or had the oc-
cupant of the car worn glasses. the
boys might have caused an accident
tthey would have regretted always.
Friday morning it was discovered
that some one had broken into the
Cox grocery. The windows were
broken in and the door left open.
John Meyers was notified and immed-
lately started out in his car to locate
er road and up toward Montrose.
then coming back he saw three men
crossing the swamp near the Hatten-
hauer blacksmith shop. He took the
fellows, made search and found
sardines. thirty some packages OF
chewing gum, etc. in their possess
ion. The boys gave their names as
Jerry Towns, of Grand Junction, aged
%. Clifford Toland, of Pueblo, aged
Is and Will Dewing, of Grand Junct-
ion, aged Is. All three are in Mont
rose waiting trial. Towns will be
tried by the district court and the
two others by the juvenile court. Mr..
Meyers surely deserves much credit
for his prompt action in this affair
