chirping sparrows breakfasting off
the red berries on a mountain ash

The noise is cheerful If not mus

thanksgiving service out of pure
enjoyment and passing vote OF
thanks.
They are not worrying about flu
ture supplies of berries and seem
utterly oblivious of where the ber-
ries came from or how nature sup
piled them.
They remind us of the labor agi-

sHoRTHORN GALE CLUB.

Fighting DliZZard ana ABOUT
foot OF snow fifty farmers of Ebert
County gathered at the Gleason and
Blazer Ranch, south of Kiowa on
Saturday afternoon, November Sth.
for the drawing of the Elbert Coup-
ty Shorthorn Calf Club. In spite of
the weather 1t was another big
Shorthorn Day for the Divide
country.
ten ofw hich were roans, were hal
tered and tied in the barn.e These
calves were all bred and raised in
the Divide country. Each calf was
numbered and a placard told the
name, age, breeder, weight and cost
of the calf The numbers were
placed in a hat and the boys and girls
drew for their calf. Registration
papers and an insurance policy good
for one year were included in the
drawing. The Hartford Insurance
company made special rate for the
calf club and each calf carried $140l
insurnce in case of death by any
means. The club was financed by
the Stockgrowers State Bank of Kio-
wa, the boys and girls signing IL
month notes bearing percent in
terest. A bout half of the boys
paid cash for their heifers.
Mr.. Tingle of the Colorado Agri-
cultural College placed a valuation
on each calf--the best calf bringing
$160 while the poorer ones $40.
This included the insurance. DR..
Johnston of the Purity Serum COM
pany of Denver vaccinated each
calf for blackleg. free of charge.
Keen interest was manifested in the
drawing. Immediately after the
youngsters had drawen number
he was anxious to find his calf and in
several cases much affection was
shown to the new acquisition.
The average cost of the calves to
the boys and girls was S14S.00. The
calves were all this years calves and
the average weight was 604 pounds.
The members of the club are going
to take care of these calves for one
year and show them in September
1920. Already $500 has been sub
scribed for premiums in the club for
the contest. Several cups will also
be offered
The Calf Club was formed by the
Elbert County Farm Bureau and is
one of the projects to develone the
Divide country into a Shorthorn
center. This country already has
established a reputation for Short
horn cattle and by adding 16 new
breeders, it will not take many years
to delope into one of. the strongest
pruebred cattle centers in the west.
The calves for the club were sup
piled by Hixon and Sons of Simla.
Gleason and Blazer of Kiowa, The
Cornforth Livestock company and ]
of Franktown.
The club consists of three girls
and thirteen boys. The ages vary

In addition TO the rule OF the Bu-
reau ofWar Risk Insurance, which
provides that am an may reinstate
his term insurance at any time with
in eighteen months after discharge,
or within twelve months after his
last premium was paid, the Bureau
has recently issued another rule
which declares that in all cases men
may reinstate their insurance up to
December 81, 1919. This win pro-
vide for reinstatement by many men
who would otherwise have been pre-
cluded
A new rule also provides that men
who reinstated their insurance be-
fore July 25 and submitted back
premiums for all of the months dur
ing which the insurance had elapsed
may now apply all of those back pre-
miums, except two. on their future
premiums This places those men
on the same basis as those who re-
instated after July rs. The latter
were allowed to reinstate by paying
only two months back premiums.

The Belleclaire Hotel and the
Belleclaire Golf and Country
Club-both under the same
ownership and management
are partners in rendering ser
vice of the highest quality to
their patrons.
As one of the most important
features of comfortable and
inviting Golf and Country Club
is serving good meals. the Hotel
Belleclaire, which has won a
splendid reputation for good
cooking, has taken over the
culinary department of the
club, which is assurance that it's
members will have the best of
everything in the eating line.
A great many improvements
have been made to the Club
house. They have given it a
touch of comfort and convent
ence and refinement which
members, particularly the la
dies, say makes the Club house
one of the most charming they
have ever been in-North.
South, East or West.
The full quota of members
has not yet been filled. and
won't be for some little time
yet, because of the care with
which membership cards are
issued.
The financial rating of a
member is not the essential
thing. 1t goes without saying
that men and women will not
seek membership in a country
club unless they can afford it.
The things that count most
in choosing members of the
Belleclaire Golf and Country
Club are:
Is the man or woman natur-
ally agreeable and sociable and
democratic and Of good repu-
tation-one with whom all
members will be glad to asso-
ciate. to dance. to dine. to play
golf or tennis with?
The Belleclaire Golf and
Country Club wants a maxi
mum of 300 golfers-men and
women $50 motorists--men
and women-50 tennis play
ers-men and women.
But on days other than holi-
days. Saturdays and Sundays
