To Kill One Man.

hits a man. and Of those men hit
only one in thirty-fiye suecumbs,

In view of the awful slaughter

TIMIDITY is NOT A CRIME
French Military Judge Hears Army
Doctors Definition Of Afflctlon-
Sends Offender Back to Trenches.

Is timidity a crime-under war
conditions? That is the question a
French military judge had to decide
when the case of deserter, named
Stephanie Dessalles, was brought be-
fore him. This was the Doctors re-
port on him:
"Dessalles is an emotional char
acter. He is coward. He is afraid
of thunder and other things, but not
so obsessed by fear as to render the
case one of mania. At first he did
his duty at the front, but allowed
himself to become depressed more
easily than a normal man. But to
say he deserted under the irresistible
influence of fear or in state of IT.
responsibility is going too far. He
was simply unable to offer the same
resistance to the emotions of war as
an ordinary man." The deserter
told the court:
ri am timid. In my family we
are nearly all like that. am afraid
of everything" Asked if he thought
himself capable of doing his duty
if sent back to the front, he replied
earnestly: s1 will do my best, but 1
am not certain"
The court sentenced him to two
years. imprisonment, but humorous
ly gave him the benefit of the first
offenders law, with the result that
he will return Immediately to the
trenches.

GUM PICKING AS BUSINESS
High Prices, Resulting From Short
Supply, Brings Workers In the
Woods Big Profit.

Up in the Maine woods is where
the professional gum pickers thrive
The consumption has grown so fast
and the supply is getting SO short
that half an ounce of second-rate
gum sells for 10 cents. The whole.
sale price paid by manufacturing
concerns is 81 to $1.5O a pound, ac.
cording to quality, and busy picker
and faster can make about Sc day.
Most of the gum is picked in
March. The gum picker wears steel
climbing spurs on his boots and in
his belt he carries a light hatchet,
while strapped to his waist is a bag
with wide mouth. Climbing tree
he proceeds from limb to limb, chip.
ping off the Jumps of gum as he finds
them, until he reaches the top. Most
of the gum is caught in the wide
open bag, while all that goes to the
ground stands out in such relief on
the snow that it is picked up easily.
Sometimes gum pickers travel in
parties of three OF four, and often
the boys of the family make busi-
ness of gum picking, earning more
than they could by an entire winters
labor in the logging camps.

cal authorities say, to the caution Of
examining physicians at recruiting
stations.
An applicant with enlarged tonsils
will not be accepted in the marine
corps, as it has been pointed out
that tonsilitis is more than "mere
ailment," and in a military camp
will spread rapidly. Medical research
workers have discovered that ton
silitis is the "base" of numerous dis
eases, among which are inflammation
of the joints and heart, the latter
often proving fatal.

IMPRESSED BY DEARFiELD FARM
ER@LAeoR CoNQUERs ALL
THINGS.

Editor of Denver Star.
IF Won will allow me space in The
Star, 1 would like to mention the pros
perity of the Dearfield colony. Last
Sunday morning we started to the COL
ony, arriving there about 10 O'CLOCK.
We started out to visit house to house
to see what the homsteaders were 90
ing and raising. To my great ana
pleasant surprise, after the dry sea-
son. we found them with good corn
crops, potatoes, cane, capper corn and
in fact everything that they planted.
They were well paid for their trouble.
The beans especially was an abunt-
ant crop. We found happiness and
contentment in the colony. Every
body was gathering in their crops
and very much enthused in preparing
for the next year crop, with the ex-
pectation of doing better. l can see
a great advancement and future IN
the colony to what l saw while there
two years ago. l have Travelled the
dry land section this summer IN Colo
RADIO, almost every d1recuon from
Denver, and, as far as the state line;
hut have not seen any crops to equal
those of the Dearfield colony. l think
It would be a great trip for any one
tn take a run to the colony and see
and encourage those farmers, as they
are always glad, even tickled, to have
YOU come and see what they are 90
ing. Here are the names OF some OF
the persons who visited this thriving
colony and who came away deeply
moved because of the apparent sue
cess-all coming from little money
and much hard work: David E. over
and family, Officer Will Baker, Ofiicer
Geo. Lewis, Bill Williams of kremm-
ling, Colo, Chas. Porter, Geo. W. An
derson, DR.. Justina Ford, Mrs. Jasper
Andrews, Enrique and Jacob An
drews, Dr. C. E. Terry, Elite Drug
Store, Fred S. Burton, VIM. Clark,
Mrs. Eva La Chapelle, Mrs. Frazier,
Walter H. Pritchett and family, and
Mrs. Fox.
Dearfield is slowly but steadily
growing into Importance as well as IN
the minds and hearts of our progress-
i've and thoughtful Denver citizens.
Denver, wake up and visit our colony
at our door and be convinced as well
as agreeably surprised.
