Under the terms of the act of Congress of February 25, 1919, any officer, soldier, sailor or mar inc who has served, or shall serve, not less than 90 days in the army, navy or marine corps of the Unit ed States during the war with Germany and it's allies, or during the operations in Mexico or along the border, who has been honor ally discharged, who has not eX- hats ed his homestead right, and who now makes a homestead en- try, is entitled to have the term of his service, but not exceeding two years, deducted from the three years residence required under the homestead laws. If this service continues after the end of the war under the same enlistment, he may haze credit for the entire period of service. If he was discharged on account wounds or disability incurred in the line of duty. he obtains credit for his whole term of enlistment; and said term extends to the end of the war if he enlisted or was drafted for its duration. How ever, in either. of these cases can the credit given exceed two years.
 A soldier is required to estab fish residence upon the land in- volved within six months after his entry is allowed, unless an eX- tension of time is granted on ac- count of climatic reasons, sick ness, or other unavoidable cause. If he has filed a declaratory state. ment he must file his application for entry and establish residence within six months after the filing of such statement.
 Residence and cultivation mus be continued for such length ot time as will make up three years when added to the soldiers credit on account of military service; bu he is entitled, on proper notice to absent himself for five month in each year. which may be di vided into two periods, if he s desires.

DENVER. Colo, June 1S.-Ben

viii pay a fine Of $500 for contempt
OF the criminal court here. he has
announced. The Colorado Supreme
court. in June 2, denied Judge Lind
sey's petition for a rehearing. The
Judge had FIFTEEN days 10 pay or 90
TO Jail. If the court insisted.
The fine was assessed when
Judge Lindsey. in Nav, 1915, de-
clined TO tell what Neal Wright. Il
year old ward OF the juvenile court
had told the Judge about the shoot
ing Of Nears father Meals mother
was on trial charged with murder.
Neal was the only eye witness. Mrs.
Wright was acquitted.
Justices Uphold Fine.
Judge Lindsey refused 70 testify
at the trial. insisting that what
ever information he posse ssed re
garding the killing had been given
him by the boy in confidence and
ne could not and would not violate
the boys confidence Soon after
the trial. John A. Perry, then judge
Of the criminal court. found his
fellow-judge guilty Of contempt and
assessed the $500 fine. Judge
Lindsey appealed to the supreme
court. The fine was upheld by Il
majority Of the justices-thrce OF
them. however. dissenting. on June
2. last, the Colorado Supreme court
denied Judge Lindsey a rehearing.
Judge Lindsey announced that IL
refusing to pay the fine lie is not
acting upon a personal point OF
view but considers that as Denver
Juvenile court is one of tho Oldest
in the United States, all other courts
look 10 il TO uphold It's rights. And
one Of these is that a relation Of
circumstances given in confidence TO
a juvenile court Judge is not 20 be
used in any other proceedings.
Offers To Pay Fine.
Tho Judge has received letters
from many of the JUDGES through
out the United states urging him TO
maintain his stand Various chill
dren's agencies have offered 10 pay
the fine for him.
NO matter what the Supreme
court decided. I still believe and
will always believe that what Neal
Wright told me was told me in
strickest confidence and that
would have been unworthy 10 hold
the position l now hold if | had test
flied" said Judge Lindsey. The
fact that four justices OF the su-
pre,ne court says l was wrong does
not make il so. I am not going to
pay that fine. because if l did
would admit 7 was wrong."
Neal Wright, the boy involved
enlisted in the army at the begin
ming of the war and now is serving
in France.
