According to one of our legal au-
thorities newspaper must not pre-
sent its position on public matter if
it has been given to the courts. And
we thought we were fighting to make
the world safe for democracy. Yet
here we note that the freedom of the
press is not included.-St. Petersburg
Times.
That is the law only in Florida, and
Florida is not democratic any more.

A party of our citizens who went
to the gulf last Sunday may have
disregarded their Sunday school les
sons but they have not escaped the
thirteen superstition. They fished all
day and when they counted up found
they had just thirteen specimens of
the finny tribe. In order to avoid bad
luck they cast one fish back into the
water, not, however before one of the
party had lost his rod and line.

College Offers Practical Course In
Food Conservation

A practical course in food conser-
walton which will be of especial inter
est to patriotic Colorado housewives,
will be given at the Agricultural Col
lege at Fort Collins during the week
beginning July 8. The principal sub
jects will be as follows:
A lecture to show the importance
of consuming food stuffs produced in
our own locality.
A lecture to emphasize the import
ance of using perishable foodstuffs
that the staples may be released for
shipping to the Allies, brief survey
of the cereal production in the state
will be given to show which cereals
the Colorado housewife should use to
save wheat. There will be demonstra-
tons in the use of each substitute.
A lecture by live stock authority
on the meat and dairy situation in
Colorado will be followed by apropos
demonstration. A similar discussion
followed by demonstration will be
made of the sugar situation.
The storage Of vegetables, the dry
ing Of fruits and vegetables, the pre-
servation of eggs, and the home cur
ing of meats will be presented by lee
lures and demonstrations.

chautauqua programs. However it is
hope that the Redpath-Horner pei :
pie will strengthen next years pro-
gram to make up for any deficiencies
which might have been prevalent this
year. This community as whole is
strong for a chautauqua and is deser-
wing of the best of talent appearing
on the program.
Superintendent Simmons, who had
charge during the entire five days,
proved to be very efficient in his ca
pacity. and made many friends during
his stay here
The patriotic play, "Liberty's
Torch" which was presented Tuesday
morning at the chautauQua tent by the
children of this community, was we'll
rendered and the little folks did re-
markably well. Great credit is due
Mrs. G. E. Hendricks for the success of
this entertainment, she having charge
of the direction of the play. Not AS
large a crowd as was expected was in
attendance. this being due probably
to the hour of the day, but what was
lacking in attendance was made up
by the successful manner in which the
play was rendered by the children
under the able direction of Mrs.
Hendricks.

CHAUTAUQTA Is
TOBE HELD HERE
NEXT SUMMER
Citizens Sign Contract
For Session In 1919;
Was Financial
Success

The Julesburg chautauqua closed q
five-day session in our city last Tues
day evening. Although the days were
exceedingly warm and likewise the
nights. there were good attendances
at each session.
The chautauqua financially was
success, there being over the required
number of season and Communication
tickets sold to make good the guaran
tee. The ticket committee, with
Judge G. H. Austin as chairman, is
deserving of great credit for the good
work accomplished by then.. and those
whose names were on the guarantee,
owe this committee a vo,e of thanks
for their untiring efforts. A contract
containing over twenty signatures of
our citizens has been signed up for
chautauqua to be furnished by the
Redpath-Horner bureau next year.
The program this year, according
to the opinion of quite u few with
whom we have talked, was not
quite up to standard. although some
of the numbers were exceedingly
good, but as whole there was the ele-
ments of inferiority in the five-day
program-which was disappointing to
the people who had attended former

There an urgent call from Head
quarters for our chapter to furnish
for the month of June, 325 underyar-
ments. We have ple..ty of ma.e:i;:
on hands now and what We need most
ly is plenty of workers. 1t is i'm
perative that we have more workers
in order to keep up our quota and rec
ord for good work There is plenty of
materials for the gauze department,
and also for the Junior Red Cross
workers.
Mrs. Josephine ID. Hood. Supervisor
Of Hospital garments an6 knitted ar
ticles pronounced our last shipment of
articles very good.
Some ones excuse for not coming
10 work more in the work rooms is
that it is too warm and uncomfortable
up there. Perhaps the boys in the
camps and over there are not always
comfortable and doing just what they
please to do.
The ladies on the Reservation south
of Ovid have been very enthusiastic
workers for our chapter. They meet
every two weeks on Thursday at Mrs
Morgan's. Each lady takes her ma.
chine, lunch and goes prepared tc
stay all day. In our last shipmen.
they made the following garments:
10 hospital shirts. pajama suits
Il ambulance pillows, II pillow slips
They made and donated 8 napkins and
81 handkerchiefs.
