The CASUALTY LIST

During the closing days OF last
week the wires were frought with
sad messages for Highland, bring
ing the horrors and seriousness OF
war to more than one home.
The name of John r Slaven ap.
peared in the list published Friday
under the head of Severely Wound
ed" and as no word came from him
since in July, the inference is that
he received bis wound about that
time.
Following closely this announce
ment came the official notice from
the government that Private Al
bert Gum, Of Eightown, had been
killed in action July 18Th. this be
ing the first word from or concern
ing him since early in July.
The death OF Albert Gum Is the
first to occur among Highland bows
on the battlefield, and the deep
sorrow felt in the home by immed-
teloved ones is shared by anxious,
sympathetic parents and friends
whose dear ones are exposed 10
the same dangers.
Albert vu5 the youngest son Il
Mrs Frank Gum, of the Hightowa
community, and was = good boy
Quiet, home loving he lett for can12
reluctantly, bu was sad to h2vo
become reconciIed and contenteu.
and, as the sequel shows, did not
hesitate to make the supreme sacti-
fee IN defense IF home, loved ones
and liberty, al, iudgias from tie
date given, his lame Wi. be jmmor
allied by havjng been 1ong those
brave Americans who turned the
bloody Huns toward the Rhine and
checked their determined drive on
Paris.
Still further sad news came late
Saturday evening in ms sages to
J. L. Hiner, of Mont ey. ard
Mrs. Lucy Colaw, of Forks Of
Waters, stating that THEN respec-
tive sons, Dewey Hiner and RusseI
Colaw, were critically Ill at Camp
Lee, victims of pneumonia.
Mr.. Hiner lett at once for the
big Virginia cantonment, and a
later report as to his sons condi-
ton will be furnished lefore the
Recorder goes to press.
Mrs Colaw is herself victim OF
the same disease, and at time Of
this writing has not been told Of
aor sons condition.
1t is understood that both these
Highland boys had contracted
Spanish influenza, now in epidemic
form in many camps and cities,
and that pneumonia developed as
it frequently does with this new
disease.
The fact that Albert Gums
death was not known sooner is
probably due to errors in trans
scribing names
1t is recalled by at least two
Monterey friends that, perhaps in
July, they noticed in the casualty
list the name of Albert Gum"
Highville, which was no doubt in
tended to read "Albert Gum
aightown, Va"

Public Schools
Of Fremont County
Opened Tuesday

Most OF the public schools OF Ere
mont county opened for the years
work on Tuesday and the enrolment.
as far as can be ascertained. was
fully up to the usual number; in some
of them IL was in excess of the regis
tration on the opening day twelve
months ago. In Canon City and South
Canon the attendance was very
gratifying and the outlook is encour-
aging for one of the best school years
In the history ofthe community. II
will be several days before the full
enrolment can be announced as new
students will be coming In most of the
week. At the Canon City high school
the classes are filling up rapidly and
ii is practically certain that the regis
tration there before the end of the
week will be greater than ever before.
The same statement will. probably.
apply to most OF the grades OF the
ward schools.
All day Tuesday the school build
ings were veritable hives of activity
and excitement. Hundreds of pupils
were busy endcavoring to find out the
kind of text books they We're required
TO buy, arranging their courses OF
study and familiarizing themselves
with their class and recitation hours.
The teachers were swamped with in
quiries of various kinds and in their
efforts to organize their departments
for work In the primary grades the
children were accompanied to the
school buildings by their parents or
guardians and everywhere there was
the utmost rush and hustle to '.get
things going" The greater part of
the day. was devoted to preparation
and II was not until this morning that
complete order was restored and the
real work Of the term begun. The
book stores did regular land office
business on Tuesday and extra help
was reauisitioned by all of them to
meet the demand OF their patrons for
school supplies OF various kinds.

ITSEANNUAL HOLIDAY
THE RECORD SUBSCRIPTION
PRICES CHANGED OCT. 1ST

We have been trying TO get by with
out raising prices around The Daily
Record office. but we have had 10
come to it.
The cost of producing a newspaper
has increased greatly in the past year
Paper and ink cost about double
what they cost a year and half ago
Help in all departments costs more
postage on newspapers has been
raised considerably Every item that
enters into newspaper making has
gone up from eo9s TO l0oss. Paper
is big item. We used to buy our
paper at $2.s5 hundred. That which
we are using now cost $3.50 hun
dred.
Much of this advance came last
year. It's effect was shown in our
business statement Last year 10
The Record office. we did greater
business than any previous year in
the history OF the newspaper. and the
net profit was less than IL had been
any year since The Daily Record was
started
These facts should have convinced
any sensible business man thar the
selling price would have TO be raised
But We have drifted on selling The
Record at the same old price il was
sold at in The cheap times of years
ago.
