DEATH

Last Thursday morning, Mrs.
Josie Catron, wife of Bert Cat
ron. was operated upon in the
City of Atlanta, Ca, and died
Immediately after the operation.
The remains were brought back
home, arriving last Friday morn
ing and taken to her home. Mrs.
Catron was 80 years old and was
the mother of nine children,
eight of whom are yet living.
She was a christian and a men,
Der of the M. E. Church, and her
last words to friends was that
she was prepared to live if it was
the will of God, if not, she was
ready to die; all this we believe,
for her life was to all appear
ances the kind that does not fear
the pangs of death, and there is
no doubt but that she is today
basking in the sunbeams around
the great White Throne.
Her funeral was held last
Saturday at the First M. E.
Church, where she worshipped
and the interment was in the
City Cemetery. She leaves a
heart-broken and loving husband,
eight children, three brothers
and three sisters and a mother,
besides a host of friends and
neighbors to mourn that she
should be taken from among
them, but their loss is her eter-
nal and happy gain. We tender
to the heartb1oken husband and
little ones our tenderest sympa-
thy and assure them that the
whole community joins with us
in saying to them. that though
they are left alone, that the moth
er and wife they loved is in a
better land.

when patronage makes them so. Bust
ness slackens when buying slackens.
And slackened business cannot grow
efficient, any more than stagnant wa
ter grow pure.
Idle business invites competition.
If American business grows efficient
through idleness, foreign business
will make inroads upon It after the
war is over. This is a thought for
every American to consider now. 1t
is for us-all of us-to keep our own
industries mobile and active so that
they may have the force and mo-
mentum to compete when the smoke
of battle clears.
Let US keep business gong right
here in this community, for our coun-
try's sake; for the community's sake
and for the sake of all humanity. We
all can do our "bit" towards accom-
plishing results along this line. War
must be waged and won with the
sinews of war. Don't let US be slack
ers in any sense of the word, but let
us go at things with even more pep"
than ever before, as we, each and
every citizen of Julesburg and COM
munity, have a great duty to per-
form.
The Julesburg grit-advocate. (Julesburg, Colo.) 1907-1972, 1917-05-24
KEEP BUSINESS GOING

This is the most patriotic answer to
the universal American question,
"What can l do for my country" 1t
applies to us all alike-men, women,
children. 1t is universal, therefore it
is democratic: and this war is war
for democracy
A prosperous country can pay for
q war, an unprosperous country can
not. A prosperous country can help
the Allies, an unprosperous cannot eff
fectively help herself.
Keep business going forward so
that the country can effectively go
forward. Keep money circulating,
keep people employed. keep the wages
going, keep making money so that we
may have it to use and to sacrifice
in the common cause. Be economical,
which means be not wasteful. Prac-
tice patriotic economy by buying in a
careful manner and using efficient
ly.
Spend money, don't hoard it; thus
your neighbor will spend money and
not hoard it, for boarding stops the
wellspring of wealth, lessening the
need for employment-possibly in
time your own employment. 1t is
boarding, not war, that makes panic
and disaster.
Keep the nation progressing while
the nation helps to keep the world
progressing. Civic improvement.
must go on; road building must be
carried forward; railroads must re.
new their equipment; factories must
be kept going; labor must be employ.
ed; merchandise must be produced
distributed and used; homes must be
kept up. The more we do, the more
we can do.
The keynote is clearly sounded fol
us when President Wilson says: II,
is evident to every thinking man tina,
our industries, on the farm, in tn.
shipyards, in the mines, in the fac
tories, must be made prolific ant
more efficient"
Our industries are prolific onl,

for approval:
Womens' Voluntary Poll Tax Fund
for Colorado Sisters.
Dear Madam:
In this hour of the Nations great
need, we call upon all the women NJ

state.
That splendid soldier hijutant Cen
eral Baldwin of the Colorado Nation
al Guard, Major General of the U. s.
A.. retired, has issued an appeal to
the citizenry Of Colorado to replen-
ish the military fund, upon which
such heavy inroads have been made
by the demands of the present cri-
sis.
As a woman of C6lardo you are. of
course, exempt from the regular Mill
tary Poll Tax of one dollar.
But Colorado appeals to you at
this critical time to waive that ex-
emption and voluntarily contribute
the equivalent of the poll tax as a
matter of loyal service to your coun-
try.

WELL BALANCED
GAME COUNTS IN
BASEBALL PLAY
Batting and Fielding Averages
Do Not Give Line on Strength
of Baseball Team Now
IR1 Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, n. Y, July 27.-That
we'll balanced and even baseball play
points the way to the pennant has
again been demonstrated by the fig
ures compiled from the various aver
ages and records available at the
halfway mark in the present big
league contests. When the turning
mark was reached on July neither
leading club in the National and Am
erican leagues was among the first
three in the total number OF runs OF
hits made but this mark Of finished
offensive was more than counterbal
anced by the strong defensive game
played by the league leaders.
In the National League the Chicago
club was first in runs with Cincinnati
second and Philadelphia third. Chica'
go was second in total number Of hits
reversing places with Cincinnati in
this respect, while st. Louis was
third. This strong offense Of the two
Western clubs was offset, however,
by weakness in defense Chicago was
first in error making; had more run
ners left on bases than any other
senior league club and third in total
number of runs made by opponents,
Cincinnati was second in errors; Sec
tenond in left on bases and more runs
had been scored against the team
than any other club in the league
Pittsburg, in last place, had made tie
third largest number of errors and
had next to the largest number OF
runs scored against by opponents.
Boston was third in left on bases.
The compilations showed a more
complicated situation in the Ameri'
can League. Boston, the leading team
on that date, was second in runs scoT'
ed but in other respects was playing
close, careful but not particularly
brilliant baseball. The Chicago White
Sox, right on Boston's heels, lead in
to say had the third largest number
of runners stranded. Detroit was
third in run-making; second in hitting.
while st. Louis led in the greatest
number of safe drives registered, with
Cleveland third. st. Louis spoiled
her hitting record by piling up the
greatest number Of errors, with Clevc
land second and Washington third,
Cleveland had more runners left on
bases than any of the other teams IN
the American League with New York
second and Chicago third. The New
York club was in third place notwith,
standing that the opposing teams had
made more runs against the Gotham
ties than any one Of the other seven
combinations. St. Louis and Philadei
phia, the two tailenders On July 7, were
second and third respectively in this
department of the records.
The complete figures showing the
total number of runs, hits, errors, left
on bases and opponents runs, tax
