C0LORADO'S QUOTA For

FIFTY PER CENT
STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
UNANIMOUSLY VOTES TO MAKE
coLoRAD's QUOTA $1,so5, 900.

Colorado's quota of 100000 for
United War Work was increased to
$1,905, 900 at meeting of the State
Executive Committee of that organ
ization which met In Denver Friday,
November 2.
Referring to this increase, Walter

Colorado said: In view Of the fact
that the budgets for the seven par.
ticipating organizations were made
out last spring, when only a million
men were expected to be in France
instead of the 100000 already there,
it is easily seen that an increase in
the quota was necessary"
Regardless Of the increase, Mr.. Hop
kins Is confident that the quota will
be oversubscribed because Of the
work already done by the organiza.

Silver Plume Notes

Two feet Of snow in Silver
Plume. Goodbye flu.
Hector Guinzie, who had been
very i'll Of influenza for more than
a week. died at $50 Wednesday.
He was an Italian and had many
friends here. He contracted the
disease by assisting his friends dur
ing the epidemic.
Francis Garrett is very i'll with
pneumonia.
Elsie Buckley's condition is still
considered serious.
John Allen came up from Den.
yer for visit with friends. He is
just recovering from pneumonia,
following a case of flu.
No new cases of "fu' have
been reported here for week.
Jerry Simpson came up from
Idaho Springs Monday. He had
been confined to his home with the
grippe for ten days.
A telegram was received here
last Sunday, stating that Mrs.
Ed Sharp had died of influenza in
Durango. Mrs. Shal p was called
here from Empire to nurse several
cases of ''flu". When she left
here, she volunteered to go to the
assistance of Silverton, where the
epide mic was beyond control and
nurses were needed badly. 1t was
while on the way there she was
taken sick. Few persons are bless
ed with the sweet, kind disposition
of Mrs. Sharp, who will be sadly
missed.
Election returns seem to please
most of the Plume. All mem bers
of elections boards wore FLU
masks.
Dixon Buchanan, who has been
here the past week looking after
his mining interests, returned to
Sterling to vote.
James Dunlap has purchased the
home of John Jones, and expects
move into the house next week.
The Smuggler is making an
other shipment this week. For a
time during the epidemic their
force was so much reduced that
they we're compelled to dispense
with the night shift.
Mrs. Bucceloni, who was here
during the illness and death of her
daughter and son-in-la Mr.. and
Mrs. Meloni, has returned to Den
yer, where she has lived tor the
past year. She has taken charge
of the six grandchildren.
The small locomotive sent up
from Denver to move the old
Gray's Peak railroad has found
the snow quite an obstacle in
getting to the top. The present
outlook is that the work will be
postponed till spring.

men. women and children during the

privilege, since tits more blessed to
give than to receive"
We urge pastors to inspire their
people. both by word and example, to
exceptional generosity. The price OF
things worth while to humanity is the
personal sacrifice of those who work
for these things. Greater cause for
the welfare of the world never ap-
pealed to man than the war in which
we are VIGOROUSLY engaged. Not the
soldier alone must be asked. or per
mitted, to bring all the sacrifice-God
bless him, he is our pride, our Joy and
hope-but we, too, who must stay at
home, needs must eagerly seek to
place our share Of the sacrifice, which
the world must pay for the blessings
to be obtained, upon the altar of i'm
notation. So sounds the cry of re-
lgion, Of patriotism. Of conscience.
Let no one fail to heed it.
