It is natural that day set aside
entirely from work, should in the course
of time be created and used chiefly for
recreation. The words "Holy Day"
have been transformed into "holiday'

some joyful event, and therefore is
usually celebrated in a care-free and
iovial fashion, such as Christmas, East

pirate and proper, but there is one hol-

Remember, these heroes did not go
forth to kill, but as patriotic American
citizens, doing their duty for their
country which they loved
Our highly esteemed martyred Presi-
dent Lincoln, whose loyalty to this
great nation will ever be cherished in
our memory, once said 90 1t is for US,

on another occasion he made the fol-

died in vain.''
The citizens of Rifle, and especially
the old soldiers, have resolved that we
especially consecrate the great day
made so memorable by the lives and
blood of our forefathers. Next We'd

High School Picnic

The students of the Rifle Union
High school held their annual picnic
outing last Saturday at Rifle Falls
The day was somewhat cold, but the
road was in good condition so that
autos made the trip without any trou-
BILE. Some rode horses and they all ar
rived safely on time.
Prof. G. w. Allen rode thorough
bred black Arabian steed and looked
like an army officer on his high horse.
One of the main events of the day
was water fight in which many con-
tested, and according to reports, the
school professor received good soak
ing. Some of the students said they
gave him his annual bath in the cool
waters of Rifle creek
1t was jolly crowd which no doubt
will never meet again on such an oc.
casion. There were plenty of good
things to eat, and the day was spent
in climbing hills, viewing the scenic
wonders of this little summer resort
and climbing the long ladder over the
falls. They also visited the cold
Maids Kitchen and carved their
names in the rocks. Everybody en-
joyed the day which will never be for
gotten by those who attended.

was then decided to await further and
future developments before it could be
known who would be accorded the
honor, and it is certain that all moth
ers sending their sons to fight for our
flag will receive all the honors these
ladies can bestow upon them.
On motion the temporary organiza-
ton was made permanent. Committees
were appointed for various duties. Rev
j. A. Hutchins was present and read a
letter from Governor Gunter, stating
that $3,OOO,OOO was to be raised in the
United States by the Y. NJ. C. A. to
be used by them in the aid of our sol
diers, and that Colorado's share was
$4,000. A meeting will be called in
the near future for the purpose of
raising Rifles share of this amount.
After debating at length as to what
name would be appropriate for the
new organization, it was finally decided
to call it Cavalry Ladies of Troop
NJ, Rifle Chapter.' Another meeting
was announced for next Wednesday
afternoon at Bachelor hall and all Ia
dies desirous of becoming members are
cordially invited to be present and
sign the charter roll.
We certainly feel proud of our ladies
and believe they are taking steps in
the right direction in this trying hour
of our nations peril, but hope that
their duties will be few. This is the
first organization of its kind on the
western slope, and our populace should
be ever willing to lend them any as
sistance within their power. Words of
encouragement, financial aid, interest
in their meetings and many other acts
of our people will be appreciated by
these noble women. Let's all get be-
hind this action of our ladies and show
them that we, too, are true Americans.
