Here is a recommendation for
our Department Store friends
of the city. May they read
and consider it profoundly.
Why not compel all men and
women of the respective or
ganizations who DO NOT

ing who they are and why
they can't "wait on folks?"
Every time we go out of the
office some patron asks US to
get this o. tha. for her
RIGHT AWAY and then be-
comes angry because 50 '7-
sist upon calling a REGU-
LAR salesperson.
This store and all stores have
a lot of people in different
branches who DO NOT
SELL. Can't, in fact, be-
cause they know nothing Of
the merchandise, prices. etc.
So, if you see a man appar-
emily doing nothing, don't
feel angry because he isn't
serving you. He's one Of
the non-selling force.

Death Takes AWay
John Morrow in Pa.

John Morrow, formerly of this
city, died July 26 in hospital in
Punxsutawney. Pennsylvania, and
was buried from the home of his
sister, Miss Della Morrow, at Plum
vile, Pa, July 90.
Mr.. Morrow came here about
21 years ago with his brother
Charles who later died. With
them also was S. l.. Work, in
whose carpenter shop they were
employed for some time. At one
time Morrow worked in the Kill
ton sampling works. About ten
years ago, when Mr.. Work left
here, Bert Wright and Mr.. Nor
row bought his shop and until a
little more than year ago they
we're partners. While working in
the Bellevue Champion year ago
last May, they with several other
men were overcome with gas. Mr..
Morrow was at that time confined
in a Denver hospital for seven
weeks partially paralyzed. He
later developed hardening of the
arteries, and it seemed best that he
go back to his old home. His
sister says, however, that he miss
ed his Colorado friends sadly.
In the early days Mr.. Morrow
was a school teacher. At his
death he was about So years of age.
He leaves the sister, Miss Della
Morrow, at whose home he had
been since last October until he
entered the hospital few weeks
before he died. There is another
sister.

SPRINGS COLO, FRIDAY AUGUST 2.
Fourth Liberty Loan
will Be for Six Billion

Apropos of the Fourth Liberty
Loan, the government is already
beginning to sell treasury certi-
fcates. Preceding each Liberty
Loan the government sells either
to the banks and financial institu.
tions or to individuals what is
known as Treasury Certificates.
These certificates carry a higher
rate of interest than the coming
Liberty Loan bonds and are re-
deemable with bonds when the
bonds are issued. The idea is to
anticipate the sale of the Liberty
Loan by collecting on the loan in
advance. 1t is generally conceded
that the next Liberty Loan will
be for six billion dollars.
The Government has asked the
banks to take two and one half per
cent of their gross deposits in
Treasury Certificates every two
weeks or FIVE percent a month OF
twenty percent for the four months
time that will intervene between
the issuance of the Treasury Ger.
ti6cates and the issuance of the
Bonds. The banks receive these
Certificates and can sell them to
their depositors. In doing this
the Government extends the loan
over a longer period of time than
it would if it were made all at
once when the Bonds are issued
Bearing four and one-haf pei
cent interest the Certificates are
exceedingly good collateral and
make one of the best investments
for the people at the present time.

Lieut. ''BruZ'' Roberts
Among the Wounded

A brief government telegram
was received by the Roberts family
Wednesday announcing that Lieut..
John L. Roberts had been severely
wounded ON July 4. No additional
information has been received.
It was known for some time
that the young lieutenant was at
the battle front in France, and the
sad news of his injury was re-
ceivedby the family only as mat
ter of'expectancy.
"Bruz" Roberts is the 25-year-
old son of the late Senator H. l..
Roberts. He enlisted at Colorado
Springs two years ago during the
Mexican trouble. Last August he
entered the second officers training
camp at Fort Sheridan, ILL.,, and
was commissioned a lieutenant.
He went to France last December
with 9th Infantry, Company D.
It is sincerely hoped later news
from the war zone regarding Lieut.
Roberts condition will be more
encouraging.
Lieut.. j. Robert McClelland is
now on his way to France, leaving
Camp Kearny last Thursday
Trainload after trainload of the

The big circus will exhibit in
Denver on Thursday, August Is.
1t is promised that nothing to
compare with the present Barnum

before been seen under canvas.
New and novel features have been
imported from abroad and pro-
gram of events, thrilling, educa-
tional and screemingly funny, will
occupy every instant in three
rings, four stages, the riggings

There will be six bands in all and
they will be assisted by the three
steam calliopes and an electric
piano.
With the largest tent in the his.
tory of all circuses, the Barnum
and Bailey circus promises this
season to make good again its boast
that it is the Greatest Show On
Earth. Five railroad trains com.
prising SO railroad cars, will be re-
quired to transport its parapernalia,
more than $50 horses will be used
to transfer its wagons from the
railroad yards to the show lot.

People and War Taxes

More than $500, 100000 has
been collected in internal revenue
taxes. including income and ex.
cess.profits taxes, for the fiscal
year. This exceeds by over 500,
600, 600 the estimates made a few
months ago, and by over 5000, 900,
600 the estimates made a year ago
when the revenue measures we're
passed by Congress.
The success in collecting this
large revenue is attributed by the
Treasury Department to the pat
riotism and cooperation of the
American people in promptly and
cheerfully meeting the war bur-
dens imposed upon them.

Colorado Marching On
With War Savings

During the month of June,
Colorado jumped from 17th to 10th
place in the sale of War Savings
Stamps for that period and from
10Th to 18th place in the total sales
from the beginning of the cam
paign to the end of June. During
June Colorado sold 1872, 1929
or $1.35 per capita. Total to June
%, s4,6OO,53 as reported to
the National Government at Wash
ington. The total cash sales to
date as reported into the Denver
Office from selling agencies are a
little over s6,OOO,OOOOO. The
total pledges as reported to the
State headquarters since the drive
was Sl7,917 800 which is just little
more than $2,OOO,OOO.O0 below
Colorado's quota. In many in
stances those who pledged one
amount have purchased almost
twice as much as they pledged.
We have a small line of crockery
ware which we will sell as cheap
as you can buy them anywhere,
quality considered. Remember,
that is one line of merchandise
that is hard to get and will be

Chief of Records. all of Denver,
followed. Other speakers were
Mrs. May Mcdonald, Past Great
Pocahoatas; Rev. r. II. McCabe
and Mayor E. NJ. Moscript.
The gist of the several talks was
that the Redmen is the only Or
ganization requiring proof OF
American citizenship or intentions
of becoming one, from prospec.
tive members. Thus, though they
do not claim to be alone in their
patriotism, they do say that every
member is 100 per cent American.

should be expended to end the

Mining Activities Of
Upper Clear Creek

The new plant of the Colorado
Central company, after a years
careful preparation, is now run
ming steadily on ores from the
mines and dumps. The mill,
which is up to date in every par
ticular, is using tables and fiota-
ton, and reflects much credit on
Mr.. Weird, who has been the en-
gineer in charge. Careful esti-
mates place the ore available for
treatment at over one million tons
of an average value in the crude
of IS per ton, 80 that the revenue
from this source alone should
amply compensate for the large
expenditure of 100000 in equip
ment and mine development to
date. Those in charge say that
savings and results SO far are en-.
tirely satisfactory.
Theodore King and partners
have given a lease on the Gould
and Curry group in Hall valley.
At present there is exposed in the
workings, where the development
has been carried on, large bodies
of galena ore carrying good values
in lead and silver. while a small
lot Of ore shipped a few years ago
gave returns of over $4,000 ounces
in silver per ton. At present price
of silver, it would not require a
very large streak of this character
Of ore to make the lucky leasers
rich.
The compressor for the George
town tunnel has arrived and is
being installed as rapidly as good
workmanship will permit. Work
in the near future can be conduct
ed on a scale that is bound to be
productive of the very best pos
sible results, which will no doubt
result in a large tonnage of the
high grade ore now exposed in
the mine.
Brand Cowles says he has new
lode that will discount anything
yet discovered in the Daily district.
The ore is heavy lead with gold
and silver values.
AL Wilder, who is developing
the Salamander group, is very
much encouraged by his mineral
showing. He says this one-man

FRESHMAN PRESENTATION
Red Cross Is This Year the Recipient
of Glass Funds

The annual custom in accordance
with which the members Of the Cony
High school freshman class have pre-
scented each year to the school some
gift-usually a work OF art for the
adornment Of the school walls-was
suspended this year for the very good
reason that the 1921 class turned over
its assets to the Red Cross war fund.
In place Of the usual presentation
ceremonies there were .leld last even
ing at Assembly hall exercises dealing
with the work Of the Red Cross, and
there was displayed a simple tablet
which will be permanently placed in
some conspicuous position in the
building. on which is stated the fact
; that the class has donated its funds
. to the American Red Cross Society.
In addition to essays there were
piano and violin selections. Miss
Eleanor Newman Of the school fac
ulty had charge of the exercises.
Frank Hewins was present to repre-
sent the Board of Education.
