Good Words and Bad

Often good reputation is seriously impaired by a
careless word two said in jest and repeated IN thought
essness is the same in this community in all others.
Men and women cannot guard too well their tongues
in this respect 1t is not good that citizens be
stanty exposed to the impairment of their good names
because other person. in moment of thoughtless-
ness in a spirit of vndictveness makes questionable
illusions to them without the facts to substanate such
derogatory statements.
We are all interested in this town and the surround
ing territory We want to grow and thrive and bios
som with prosperity. We want to see it a model COM
munity
But it will never be other than just what we of the
community make it.
If we insist constantly hammering each other,
we can only expect battered wreck as the result
But if we remember that in all people there is some
good and look to and speak of the best in life rather than
the worst it will have wonderfully beneficial result
If each of us will search out his own faults and cor
rect hem will be doing quite much the Lord
poets of us individually
If a stone must be cast, withhold your arm Let the
constituted officials handle the 1t is better than an
shower of missiles whether they be
bal or otherwise.
This is OUR town.
Let us BOOST, and not shove.

ton.
The forest ranger stated that the
man in question had left the camp in
his automobile headed toward San
Luis valley. Mr.. Poteet lost no time
in starting on the trail. After some
inquiry he CLEANED the information
that man named Norton resided at
Alamosa and he had brought in deer
from the Salida district
Poteet looked the man up and found
that he was engaged in the ice bust
ness al Alamosa. and while this caused
the game warden to have compassion
Tor him, he proceeded to do his duty.
Norton admitted that he had killed
a deer, but when asked to produce
the head he stated that he had left it
in the hills. 1t did not take Norton
long to realize that Poteet had the
goods on him, and the matter was set
tiled in the county court of Alamosa
county on Tuesday by Nortin paying
fine Of 800 and costs.

MAY ERECT A
NEW BUILDING SOON

J. M. Anderson and James L. Nor
gan are considering the matter of
erecting an attractive one-story brick
building at SIS Main street, just west
of the Palace livery barn. in which
they will install thoroughly modern
and up-to-date grocery store and meat
market. While nothing definite has
yet been done in the proposition,
plans are being drawn by Mr.. Ward
who came here recently from New
Mexico, for the proposed structure.
The lot. which is owned by Messrs.
Anderson and Morgan, is 44x12O feet
in size, and the proposed building
will cover the entire space. 1t is
intended to incorporate into the build
ing every improvement and conven-
fence suggested by experience for the
handing of the grocery and meat
trade. All Of the fitting will be new
and Of the latest design. Everything
connected with the establishment will
be new and frst-class. IL is probable
that the building will not be ready for
occupancy -crch. ~ ary. hesc~e Jan

Encounter Unusual
Storm Cicud

L. W. Felter and Postmaster Clark
between Larkspur and Palmer Lake
about IL O'Clock Friday morning, while
motoring to Canon City from Denver.
When they left Denver the sun was
shining intermittently, with a chilly
wind blowing. AS they neared Palmer
Lake they entered an almost impene-
trable mist which made it difficult to
see a dozen yards ahead. Frost was
settling everywhere abou- them and
the barbed wire of the fencing along
the highway was coated with ice half
an inch thick in diameter by the freez-
ing atmosphere. In consideration of
the danger of encountering an OBJ
struction on the road, or running oil
the grade and wrecking their machine,
1T seemed like madness to penetrate
the semi-darkness, and consultation
was held to decide whether they would
return to Denver and await the lifting
of the cloud or go on to Colorado
Springs. 1t was determined to pro-
coed and they drove ahead slowly so
as to prevent the possibility of a col
lision with machine going in the OPP
posite direction. They finally reached
Palmer Lake and shortly afterwards
passed out of the greatest density OF
the mist, and before they reached Col
orado Springs the landscape was
brightly Illuminated by the genial rays
of Old Sol and their troubles were
over. They stopped at Colorado
Springs for dinner and to thaw out

added source Of interest and study.
II is one of the medium sized ruins
in the park. being 136 feet long. For
merly this building was very difficult
of access, but now a good trail makes
access to the building both easy and
safe.
On the mesa above this ruin and.
scattered among the cedars are a va
riety Of small ruins. called pit houses.
Their locations are indicated by what
is apparently only mounds of earth
which. when opened up, are found to
be the runs of ancient habitations.
The pit houses are the earliest homes
OF the cliff dwellers. II was here
they lived for centuries before they
built more imposing homes beneath
the great cliffs. II was one OF these
that was selected by DIR. Fewkes and
excavated. They are mostly one
room structures. The one excavated
was circular in form. sunk about a fod
below the surface and above ground
was built of adobe brick and the whole
of the interior was plastered with
clay. All of the remains OF pottery
found was OF the most oncieni type.
This building is chiefly valuable as
furnishing link in the study of the
evolution of the life of this extinct
people or race and add another unique
feature to the ruins of the park. The
ruin Vas put in a good condition OF
preservation and a shed built over it
to prevent further deterioration.
Before leaving DIR. Fewkes stated
that he still had money left for this
work and indicated his intention of
returning next year and spending it
before the end OF the fiscal year. June

If Envelopes, Why Not Groceries?

Our grocers and other dealers now know how the
printer feels all the year around about the government
envelope business Suppose the posoffce should sell
groceries cost less all the time does envelopes?
II has no more business selling envelopes in quantities to
business concern than has TO sell groceries-now,
honest has it? If you paronze the postoffce for one
kind of merchandise because it sells under the market
YOU should not complain if other folks buy other mer-
clandse there for the same reason. We have patiently
waited for twenty-five years to say this. a. Printer

BrOnchOs and Fish

The activity of the press agents concerning the per-
formances of the Prince of Wales is disturbing the
renity of the Jefersonans He has lately succeeded in
subduing bucking broncho and society editors have
chorncled the fact So that the effersonans consider
that are being altogether too polite to royalty in pay
ing attention to the circumstance.
The matter is really worth little attention There
plenty of men on the Fremont county ranges who break
bronchos every day. and whose get into the
society columns Why put the Prince of Wales there?
There is, of course, certain languid interest in the
fact that breaking bronchos is difficult and hazardous
it is perhaps gratifying surprise to find that the Prince
of Wales do it. The idea that people of royal blood
hardly know how TO shave themselves receives setback
here Butthe importance of the matter is rifling.
AT Avalon Catalina, Calf, the wife of one of the
twenty richest people in the United States caught fish
lately weighing 225 pounds, and the reporters bleaed
the fact all over the papers. In metropolitan daily
the item covered third of column, ending "Tired?
said She mo; I'm not bit tired"
This episode is about interesting the adventures
of the Prince of Wales and the broncho And as long as
We people, consider it worth while to devote news

rich hardly call other nations snobs for making

CAPE TOSSED OVER LEFT
SHOULDER is PARIS STYLE

Paris, May 1.-(By mail)-The
spring has brought the cape back to
women's fashions. The jacket and
mantle of the winter modes are No
more, and every chic Parisienne is
now wearing the cape, which is
thrown over the left shoulder and
gives an air Of grace and decision.
Fashionnn originators say they OBJ
tanned the idea from the Italian Off
GERS attached to the peace delega-
ton. The old-time military mantella
confers debonair appearance on
women, say the Paris beauties, be-
sides having the much greater merit
of throwing in note of mystery.
Hence great popularity is predicted
for the new style.
