POLITICAL ADVERTISEMENT
KALOUs POsTOFFICE

A pleasant surprise was given Mr..
and Mrs, II. S. stollar Sunday. Two
car loads OF friends came up end
told them TO jump in their car and
come with them. They were taken
to the hills and picnic dinnr spread
out before them and such dinner.
Everyone ate until they were in mis-
cry and then Mrs. Quiggles boys
brought out four nice watermcions
from under the car seat, another sur
prise. OF course we couldn't refuse
watermelon. We ate them and after
a little visit they went north 10 .ook
over the crops and all spent very
enjoyable day
Mr.. and Mrs Wanakl, Miss Alice
ana George Brady went to The noun
tains for few days
Mr. Quiggle OF Wakarli,r, III is
here visiting his sol HARLAN and
family.
The Red Cross wasn't as well at
tended as it should have been and
bidding was bad on the goods to be
sold. We hope the time will come
when the money will be forced from
those that are here profiteering, fill
Ing their own pocket books instead of
thinking Of the boys over there.
They should have heard Private AL
lison at the Raymer Chautauqua and
consider themselves lucky they are
in the United States living instead
of in Europe. OF course crops were
bad for some of the homesteaders and
some didn't have the money to bid
with but tho community wasn't so
poor as to let Red Cross sale be a
fizzle.
II. s. Stollars will throw their
home open to the community Satur-
day evening, September 14th. Every
one come and enjoy themselves and
help others to enjoy the evening.
The Red Cross will serve ten cent
lunch, so everyone try to help with
this as II will help the Red Cross
a great deal You won't miss the
dime.

TWO new GROUPS


Young men Of the ages to be in
cluded in the draft under the new
man-power bill have furnished vol
unteer enlistments out OF all propor-
lion to their numbers, the president
states in his Saturday proclamation
on signing the measure. This is ma
tural to youth; 1t is not question
OF drafting them, 1t is question of
holding them In leash long enough
for the nations good Our former
wars were fought by young men. The
Boys Of 81" as they are termed was
literal designation. Figures taken
from the war department Of enlist
ments lS61-1s65 give the following:
Age 10 years and under-------23
Age IL yers and
Age IA yers and under ,523
Age is years and sol
Age Is years and under---1, Isl ,438
Age Il years and under---2,159,79S
The nation required them then.
OF the other group 1t will be di-
vided with care into the fighting ar
my and Industrial army. The draft
age had to be extended In order that
the fighting army might, be served
with its requirements 1t was the
easiest way, apparently, for the de-
partments to secure control of an in
dustrial army as well as another ar
my that is to make victory certain
and complete at the earliest possible
moment.-Rocky Mountain News.

CREEPING TOWARD
HUNDRED MILLION

Weld county's property valuation
for 1918, is shown by the abstract of
assessment issued Tuesday by County
Assessor Hanna. is s96,007, 10, OF
which purely local property fconsl-
tutes $Sl ,5iS.315. or within two mil
ions Of the entire valuation under
last years assessment, which amount.
ed to sS3.579,s40.
The increase is quite evenly dis
tributed among the items assessed
with a few exceptions, the most i'm
portant being range cattle, which
show decrease In numbers of $500
and in value of $4,000; capital EN-.
ployed in manufactures showing a de,
crease OF $l20.000; and railroads
showing a decrease in valuation OF
100000 with a decrease in mileage
of 7.36 miles
Sheep fed in transit were $4,000
'NsNo 'u"" iaSh ysai, Jul inc Ndiue IN
creased S217000; farm land OF all
classes has increased slightly in
acreage used, and one of the princi-
pal items of increase in valuations is
upon dry farming land, the increase
being million dollars in round num-
bers with half million increase in
value OF improvements. The valua-
tion of grazing land is increased
100000
The largest single increase is in
automobiles, which show an increase
in number of 1874 and In value OF
s1,200,OO0. Next comes the increase
in dry farming land. and third, an in
crease Of 81 100000 in money invest
ed in merchandise. Household pro-
perty shows an increase of 100000;
bank stock of $240. 900; money, cred
its, etc. 100000; horses, 5000 900;
improvements on city lots, $500. 900.
Despite the inroads of the military
service on the man power OF the conn-
ty the number Of military polls is in
creased slightly, numbering 10,ll4.
This is probably due to the fact that
persons who became 21 years of age
since the 1917 assessment were in
cluded in the assessment while com
paritiTely few had gone into service
from this county before the 1918 as
sessment was made.-Weld County

SCHOOL BEGINS
SEPTEMBER 16rH

The Raymer schools begin Sep
tembcr 10th.
All OF the teachers have been Sc
cured for the schools in town, and ap-
plications for the one in 9-58 are be-
ing considered.
We might remark that the selec-
tion of teachers this year has been no
light task. The war has taken so
many good men teachers, either to ac-
tual trench work or to other activi-
ties closely allied thereto, while the
ladies find that their services are in
demand in great many lines so they
are not begging for schools any more.
The selection OF Superintendent
was so long delayed. that the usual
method Of selection had to be re-
yersed, and most Of his assistants
were selected before the head was
selected.
However. we believe that the
teaching force is strong and will give
us good schools in every particular,
II we will only give the schools 10y
al support in every department.
Here is the list OF teachers:
Superintendent, w D. Lenker.
Principal. Miss Ruth Stein.
Assistant Principal, Miss Bessie
Briggs
7th and sth grade, Miss Marie Al
len.
5th and 9Th grade. Mrs. Hewitt.
3rd and 4th grade. Miss Blanche
Barker.
End grade, Miss Cora Burton.
Primary. Sarah Duboff.
Mr.. Herman will negotiate the jan
itors duties. keep the building warm
and clean. smile at the kiddies and
watch things generally.
The biis fer drivers resulted in
to Raymer Motor company securing
the two Kiasel routes. covering about
the same territory as was covered by
them last year,
+. w. Norton will have the route
west OF town, Carl Bunderson a new
e1ute coming in from the east OF
town, j. 7. Biggs the same route that
ie had last year. Hugo Kurz the route
from the Worsfold neighborhood, and
E-rl Quackcnbush will take the chill
dren from the southwest Of Ipwr-
hiu 9-5s TO the school house that will
be provided at the center OF The
township.
This leaves few parts of the dis
trict to be cared for.
