EVENING SERVICES AT 10

A series of lectures vil, 10 c"rdnc:-
ed by Father Geisert, who wl:l d-ar
upon his eight years of prison exper-
ience, to expound his personal findings
concerning the profound problem,
Psychology of Crime.
This subject is deep, for it delves
down into the very fountain heads of
all human activity. 1t is vital ques-
ton, involving as it does, this thing
so glibly used. but so specifically un-
derstood, namely, "a man of charac-
ter" What. precisely is meant by
character-what are tine stabilizing
forces of character-what destroys
character-how and when must the
fountain of character be laid-by
whom must character be built! All
these points must be comprehensively
and thoroughly understood. and will
be explained in the course of these dis
cussions.
This view draws upon the interest
of all those whose duties impose the
obligation, but likewise bestow the
unspeakable privilege Of constructing
character
This subject reaches the attention of
parents. teachers, professors and all
the rest, who sacrifice so much of the
best there is in them to enrich society
with man, who is man.
Everybody welcome.

BUY UNGRADED POTATOES

Coloradoans are asked to cooperate
with the growers of potatoes in this
state by buying ungraded potatoes.
1t is felt that the practice of ship
ping ungraded potatoes to other states
in previous years has resulted in "A
depreciation in the value of Colorado
potatoes on certain markets.
This year Colorado has splendid
crop. The growers are permitted to
ship only grades termed U. S. grade
No. or U. S. grade No. out of the
state. There is quite percentage
of the crop which contains potatoes
which are quite large, some showing
slight defects. and do not meet the
requirements of the U S. grades. And
some show second growth and blight.
These defects show up largely in the
early crop. The potatoes are whole
some and are good food, but to at
tempt to put these ungraded potatoes
on the large markets would tend to
demorallze the price of good stock
and prejudice the trade against Colo
RADIO potatoes. Consequently the other
potato sections would reap the bene
fit as it is felt the trade woul dturn
to other producing sections for their
potatoes. These potatoes, now termed
ungraded, are the ones ColoradOans
are requested to use.
In the event these potatoes are not
used they cannot be shipped out of
Colorado, serious food loss may re-
suit. When you go to your grocer,
ask him for ungraded potatoes, and
help use up the surplus crop.

Women's Sense of Justice
A Menace to "Politics'

The old bugaboo of the negro was
used with considerable effect, and the
city machine" was oiled and creased
and made to work overtime to keep the
women from the franchise, for if there
is any one thing the Louisiana politician
knows it is the force and effect of the
women of the state when they go in for
reform. There is still very live recol-
lection of the part women played in the
anti-lottery campaign in the state-a
part which was declared the biggest fac
tor in the ultimate victory by such men
as Murphy j. Foster, the anti-lottery
candidate for Governor, afterward sent
to the United States Senate from Lou
isiana, and John M. Parker, the Vice
Presidential candidate on the Progress.

THEW of US realize that during
the recent epidemic of influenza
the boys of our armies were
taken off the boats and brought into
the city on stretchers by the hundreds,
to die, or recover if they were able
to overcome in their grim struggle with
death. Most of them had been taken
i'll in midocean, and by the time they got
to shore they generally had pneumonia.
The majority were taken to the Will
lard Parker Hospital for contagious dis
eases, where there were two thousand
of these cases at time throughout the
duration of the epidemic. The herosm
displayed by the women on the staff,
aided by the Home Defence nurses who
gallantly stepped into the breach, was in
deed the heroism of war-a heroism
that lived silently on day after day with
out the fanfare of trumpets, without
even the feminine comfort of a becom-
ing uniform; for what could be more
hideous than the rough-dry, i'll fitting
garb which is donned in hospital for
contagious diseases?

Dust and lint, too, are very lnf1am-
