TRUST TOO MUCH TO LUCK
Few Have Proper Preparation for
Work Which They Undertake
to Do In Life.

Many persons 60 through life for
long time with a veil, US 1t were, OBJ
scuring their clear vision. They do not
understand life as II is; they prefer to
try to make Of It what they think It
should be In order to satisfy their am
billions; they do not like the obstacles
that bar their paths; they want the
right Of way and cannot understand
why they may not always have It. It
Is difficult thing to make headway In
any undertaking when we are COM
PEELED to grope In the darkness and
feel our steps. We do our best, per-
haps. but even so we make mistakes
and set ourselves far back In our en-
deavors simply because we are not pre-
pared for the work In hand. No one
may even hope to accomplish really
worth while results unless he under
stands the needs Of the task In hand
and Is prepared to meet them. Good
preparation Is the foundation for our
lifework, and unless our foundations
are solid 1t Is impossible to build
strongly upon them for the future.
That is why so many Of US make such
sorry failures of life. We have had
nothing on which to build. The
fiimsy little base upon which We seek
to set our lifework is not large enough
to bear the hard strain Of earnest ef-
fort. 1t gives way under the first
heavy pressure and we find ourselves
In the dark. Again we begin to feel
our way and again we trust to luck to
get results that will be worth having.

GREAT ROAD BUILDING YEAR
Theusands Of Miles Of improvement

7t6 projects were approved by the
secretary Of agriculture. These
projects involve the Improvement Of
1857 miles Of public roads at total

the federal government has been re-
Quested to contribute $21. COZ, 900.
There have been actually completed
to date twelve projects, involving a
total Of nfty-one miles of road, cost
Ing approximately $817.548, and on
which federal aid In the amount Of
e200.o00.19 was paid.
Altogether there are more than
1900 miles Of road, for which most
Of the steps preliminary to construc,

Be Sure You Are Rlpht.

It's good thing to assure yourself
before taking important steps. Some
times you are too busy to give much
time to things. At other times you
may be too sure Of yourself. Both
cases are full of calamity. To be sure
you may be able to do the right thing
by intuition and do 1t with haste. As
rule the great things Of life upon
which important matters hang take
time. You must know the facts II you
are to advise others. You must know
the facts to be able to make success
Of things. Remember it's not the
amount of energy you put into a thing
that gets results. A locomotive out Of
control is mad thing of unlimited en-
ergy. The very power Is the danger.
II must be regulated to make It useful

ESCAPED BANDIT
BORN IN WELD COUNTY

The sensational escape Of william
Carlisle from the Wyoming peniten-
tiary, has revived interest in his ca
reer OF crime and brings out the fact
that he was born near Greeley.
Calisle made several sensational
robberies of trains near Cheyenne a
few years ago, and in the intervals
spent his time in Denver and other
places. In one OF these intervals he
visited old friends at Greeley.
When finally captured, he was
given a life sentence, but this was
recently commuted to 25 years
He made his escape by having
himself nailed up in a box of shirts
to be shipped from the prison and
then sawed his way to liberty.
Since getting away officers have
been after him, but he has managed
to elude his pursuers so far and a
lone bandit has effected couple OF
daring robberies on U. P. trains on
Tuesday. The first was regular
train, west bound and the bandit
got about $3.50. Another train car
rying a posse, was stopped to make
search for the bandit near Medicine
Bow, and when they came back to
the train they found 1t had been
raided and three rifles and quati-
ty Of ammunition. taken.
Pehaps this was the fellow who
robbed Chris Schweizers meat mar

If he had known that he had TO com
