DEATH OF WILLIAM
(D!EAcoN) JONES

Apotaerlot 4asnwsod,s familias land
nsrks has Passsdaaway in the death Of
/" Deacon" Jones at the county hos
pital yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Jones
was born in Virginia in 1910 and was
q slave until freed by Abraham Lin,
coin s emancipation proclamation. He
came to Glenwood about thirty years
ago and was for time the only col,
ored man in the town.
He held high ideals in regard to life
conduct and was of decidedly reli.
gious turn, and it was almost entirely
due to his initiative and persistence
that the colored Baptist church on Pit
kin avenue was built few years ago
a building that has scarcely been usc'l
a day since its completion.
Deceased was soldier in the latter
part of the civil war and was after.
wards in the u s. service as an Indian
chaser in western Colorado and Utah
and it was while in this service that
he was caught in severe storm al
Meekcr about 80 years ago and his
feet were SO badly frozen that it was
necessary to amputate a part of each
foot.
Jones was .ianitor of the First Ma
tional bank of this city from 1891 to
1898 and has janitored in nearly all
the barber shops of the city. During
the past few years he has been very
feeble and the past year has been a
county charge at the county hospital
Funeral arrangements are in charge of
Mortician Schwarz.

CITY FLAG TO HAVE CARE

The Boy Scouts were given the care
of the city flag by Mayor Kirwan and
it will now receive attention according
to military rules. Two scouts will be
on duty each week, the first to serve
are rhil Higney and Dallas WeyanJ
and !rocp Leader, Willard Bronshton
will APPOINT those for duty mex. week.
A part of the work of these boys is
to see that the flag is raised in the
mornlug. taken down at sunset and not
left ont i'll severe storms to be torn and
destroyed by the elements. Our flag
should be tended with loving care and
rot left to hang in neglect from month
to month. The faded rng is sacrni be-
cause Of the colors and form it once
bore and should be carefully burned
when no longer = worthy emblcm, hut
If possible now aags should be erected

ATTRACTIVE SPOT
NEAR GLENWOOD

We are all more or less familiar with
the many beautiful scenic attractions
that abound in the vicinity of Glen
wood Springs, but recently point Of
interest has come to our attention that
is not so well known to the motorists
of Glenwood, although it may easily
be covered in days outing. Words
have even been considered inadequate
to convey the beauties Of our noun
tain scenery, but short description Of
Seven Castles canon will lead many of
US to include in the coming summers
outings trips to this point.
The mouth of Seven Castles canon u
six miles above Basalt on the Frying
Pan road. There is remarkable
amount of scenery in very small
area. Seven Castles creek heads at

over cataracts, pouring over waterfalls,

There are several summer home sites
on the banks Of the Seven Castles
creek and these no doubt win be takea
up in time by tourists. The drive up
the Frying Pan road is in itself very
thrilling to the motorists, for unlike
most canon roads, it hangs shelf-like
on one wall of the Frying Pan canon,
whence one may look down at the
creek roaring among the boulders hun
dreds of feet below. Frying Pan creek,
by those who know it, is conceded one
Of the best trout streams in Colorado.

of the public. By getting a fairly ear

to the mouth of the canon in an auto
mobile, make the trip through the
canon and return to Glenwood the
same day. Do not forget to make this
trip the coming summer when yuu are
out for a days outing.

ENEMY DIVISIONS
 ARE LEAVING FRONT

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY ON sociated Press)-The sustained press ure by the French and the Americans on the line between Soissons and Reims appeared today to be having the expected result. Information from behind the German front, obtained by observers, indicated the withdrawal of one or two enemy divisions. In ad dition the counter attacks of the Ger mans have been notably reduced of late.
 Moreover. the enemy's reply to the American guns, which never have ceased their punishment has been ap- preciably less prompt, and the falling off in the enemy's aerial activities has been especially noticeable.
 There was some bombing and some observation work last night but noth- ing to compare to the previous night when enemy planes were over the greater part of the allied line and far into the back area. French and Amer ican airplanes continue their observa- tion work and are doing some bomb ing. Additional artillery has been brought up.

UNIVERSITY GIRLS
 QUIT SORORITIES
(From the Dial)

Seventeen girls of the University of Wisconsin have recently resigned from their respective sOrorities- Gam ma. Kappa Kappa Cana. Kappa Alpha Theta and Gamma Phi Beta. They say:
 First: That as women now have an established place in college affairs, the sorority's original function of facih- tating unified action among the women of the college is obsolete.
 Second That qualifications for en- trance is entirely artificial and un- defined
 Third: That the rushing" system is unwholesome pernicious and un- democratic.
 Fourth: That the great expenditure of money on trivialties is unwarranted especially at such a time as this.
 Fifth: That the women of the uni versity. both sorority and non sorority. would have a broader scope or friend . ship and freer opportunity for de- velopment if social Greek-letter sOcie- ties were abolished; and finally. that caste system is projected from col lege out into the alumnae population of the country which is detrimental to those who are not fraternity women, and which is distasteful to the true American spirit. These reasons, of course. are not the whole of the argument, but they dc present an exceptionally strong case Nor have these independent young women ignored the problem of what is to take the sorority's place. They urge dormitories for the first two years ir l college, and voluntary groups. witt | - rlx the fraternity scheme, for juniors and l seniors

HINDER COMMERCE
 PURPOSE IF RAIDS

WASHINGTON. Aug. 15.-German submarines carrying out raids in American waters are of the cruiser type. very probably converted mer- chantmen like the Deutschland. which made two peaceful trips to the United States before this country entered the war. They are low speed craft with great cruising radius. carrying large crews. 5.9 inch guns and mine layins equipment as well as rorpedoes.
 These conclusions have been draWr by naval officers from detailed reports The largest of them probably is not more than 300 feet long and officers have said they are not the super-s sub marines which frequent reports of late have said Germany was building.
 It may now be stated that the raid CTS have made no effort to attack troop ships leaving for Europe and that none of them ever has been sighted by out bound transports or conveying war ships. The sole purpose of the raids. it is believed here, is to hinder com merce as much as possible and, incl dentally, to carry the German cam paign of "frightfulness" to the United States.
 The American schooner Dorothy Barrett was sunk by shell fire from a German submarine yesterday near Cape May. \. J. Seaplanes and sub marine chasers sent to the scene dropped depth bombs on the spot where the submarine was believed to have submerged.
 The American tank steamer Fred erick R. Kellogg torpedoed Tuesday evening by a German submarine is still afloat Is miles off Barnegat. N. J.. the navy department was advised today.
 and there is chance that she may be brought into port.
