IT'S UP TO you

We were wandering about Julesburg
one day recently and we came across
lot of tumble-down shacks. worth
less outhuildings and riekety fences.
As we stopped in front Of some dear
old homesteads, now going to decay,
we thought if they only could talk,
how they would cry out for new coat
of paint and the repairs 30 badly
needed. How they would tell Of the
days when the young wife came with
the new householder and put the
bulbs and shrubs out and planned for
q home beautiful.
These poor old wrecks Of buildings
were put up for q specific purpos.
that was to make better living, but
in the years Of decay and death,
things have changed and they are left
with worn surfaces and shaggy re-
mains Of the one-time trim appear
ance.
Oh, how changed Julesburg would
look if we could reburnish this spring
from end to end. 1t would be SO easy
if everyone Of Us would do his bit.
We could make Julesburg so It'd
pleasing in appearance that we would
feel that we had moved to Spotless
Town, indeed. Tear away the old
wrecks of buildings and pile the fit
boards neatly away for future use.
Then paint the home and plant shrubs
and flowers in the door-yard. This
cannot be done by proclamation. 1t
is no use to call mass meeting to
declare general cleanup day.
The only way to accomplish this
wonderful transformation is for each
family to do it on their own premises.
Will you do your bit for the old home

vanced, but the government sOntinu-
ed to demand the support of the
country newspapers. Nunition man
ufacturers, dealers in supplies for the
army and navy, even laborers on gov
ernment work were all paid and paid
well, but the home Newspaper trudg-
ed on under the added load without
. cry e . Whins.
Now the war is won and the coun-
try newspaper owner has tAe salts
faction of knowing that hs did his
bit to the limit But he has learned
that running his paper is = business
and hereafter he will demand the
treatment accorded to other business
men. He has . right to it. In his
plant he has an investment equal to
the average stock Of merchandise
carried in any store in his town. He
must meet his bills on much shorter
time than in the days before the war
and he is entitled to the cash dis
count as well as the grocer. the drug
gist and any other business man.
The postoffice department taught
him a valuable lesson when it de-
manded that all unpaid subscriptions
must be stopped. The country edi-
tor has been too easy-going. He has
permitted himself to be imposed on
too long. In order to exist today
he must do business as other busi-
ness men do business, and the com
munity that wants q Newspaper must
| treat that newspaper ~ they do the
bank or the telephone company.
Yea, the paragrapher was right.
Twenty years ago running a
country newspaper was not = bust
ness" and that was why the country
editor wore patches on the seat of
his trousers and lived on free tickets
to the missionary teas. It is differ
ent today and it is going to be even
more SO tomorrow.

ly they have met all conditions and
given splendid service to home and
country.
And out Of it all has come great
good for the paper because it has
been demonstrated beyond any ques-
tion that advertising pays. The gov
ernment has learned it in the Liberty
Loan drives; the postmaster has been
convinced by the demand for War
Savings Stamps; the local Red Cross
has discovered it through the re-
sponses made to their appeals thru
the press; the committees in charge
of the various drives for war activi-
ties will admit their labors were
greatly lessened by the publicity Civ
en- to their campaigns in the home
paper.
During all these demands for free
publicity the editors gave of their
space, which after all is their sole
stock in trade. Expenses went up.

CARPENTER WILLING
TO MEET JACK DEMPSEY
CHAMPION TO COME
TO FRANCE.
American Who Saw Georges
Beat Smith Far From
Impressed.

Paris, July 21.-Georges Carpen-
tiers manager announced today that
the European heavyweight champion
has agreed to meet Jack Dempsey in
a bout for the worlds title, If Demp-
sey can be persuaded to come here.
The name of the promoter was not
given but it was said that he offered
a purse of 100000.
Though Carpenter won easily in
his bout with Dick Smith, former
English light heavyweight Saturday
night the few Americans present
were of the opinion that Carpenter
needs to learn a lot if he hopes to
beat Dempsey.
The Frenchman showed plenty of
steam but swung wildly and lacked
the polish that gave him prewar
reputation as boxer.

DO You Recognize Him? Ten Years

His Name Was on Every Fans

Just a Trap Shooter.

Ten years ago he won a worlds
series pennant. He was one OF the
greatest managers in major league
baseball history. He has been out OF
the game but few years. and yet
who would look at the picture and
connect him with baseball?
Time flies and so does memory.
Fred Clarke, the man referred to, is
no longer in the baseball liraelight.
Once in willis some veteran writer,
making comparisons between present
days and the past, refers to him.
Clarke has taken up the less strenu-
Gus pastime-trap shooting. He is
president OF the Kansas State Sports
mems association.
Fred doesn't boast OF being as good
trap shooter as he was baseball
general. but he does fairly well. He
broke 24s birds in the state titular
meet
Clarke is native Of Winfield. Kan.
He lives there now and plans to en-
terrain the 1920 state trap shooters
tournament there.
The gun Clarke is shooting with

fans when he retired from baseball
several years ago. It 10 a 12-gauge
