FINE PARADE ENDS
"BETTER ENGLISH" WEEK

The close Of "Detter English" week
and Children's Book Week was fitting
ly celebrated last Friday Afternoon BY
. clever parade thru the streets Of the
city. On account Of having the high
est number of tags, that is, having cor
rected the greatest number Of errors,
the high school juniors were allowed
TO lead the parade. They had a beau
tiful float done in green and white
color scheme. The queen and four
heralds rode on the float. Next in line
came the sophomores, with the seniors
third and freshmen last,
Two very clever floats were those
belonging to the Millsonian and Ath-
enian literary societies. The Athenian
society float was for the celebration Of
Childrens' book week, and some very
clever Mother Goose characters rode
ON the float. The Millsonians float
was to represent school room with the
master teaching better English. All
Of the grade children took part in the
parade. Four organizations were also
represented in the parade with deco
rated autos. They were the P. e. O..
!. I c., e. w. c., and NJ. A. C.
The presence Of the Normal School
band also added to the attraction Of
the parade
The purpose Of the Better English
Week movement is to eliminate such
words as aint' goin', and all slang from
the vocabulary Of the schools; boys
and girls, as well as older people.
The aim Of Children's Book Week
is to aid in the matter Of children hav-
ing the best books at their disposal
The Daniel 4 Fishers store in Denver
lent . beautiful display Of books 70
the Normal School library for the
week The books were for sale and
q number Of them were purchased by
parents and teachers.

FIFTEEN THOUSAND PEOPLE
OVER COCHETOPA PASS

Saguache Crescent
Recent information compiled from
the Travellers Register on Cochetopa
pass and from other sources indicate
that about $1,000 people travelled this
road during the summer of 1920. The
same data compiled for the Monarch
pass road shows that about IL 900 pco-
pie made the trip over the road which
is also an increase over last yeor's
travel.
Recently an experiment in trans
planting beaver was started by the
forest service. A few beaver were
taken alive and placed in House Log
creek, where at present none exist.
This is creek along which there is
an abundance Of feed for beaver, and
other conditions appear favorable to
their propagation. II is also stream
on which little damage can result in
case they should become numerous.
While beaver are source Of consider
able annoyance and cause damage
thru flooding meadows in some locali-
ties, there are numerous other streams
in the mountains Of Colorado where no
damage would result and where the To-
cal people desire them. The expert
ment is for the purpose Of ascertaining
the practicable. y Of stocking such
stream. 1t is of course too soon to
predict the result of the experiment.

ANOTHER BOOZE FICTION

From the Houston Post. Much fear has been expressed that American passenger ships will not be able to compete with foreign ships un- less liquor is sold on them, as on the ships of other countries. This is based on the false assumption, of course, that the travelling public is largely addicted to drink.
 The real difficulty in the way of American ships. both passenger and freight, in competing with those under other flags, however, arises from some thing entirely different It is the high CT standard of pay and conditions foy crews that handicap our merchant ma rine.
 Not only must the crews be paid more than crews on foreign ships, but they get better food, which costs more and our laws compel ships to carry larger crews approximately than do foreign shlps This increases the cost of oper- ating American ships over the cost to foreigners in operating their ships In the development of the new ma- rine, this handicap will have to be over- come in some way. but it probably will De When Americans start out to do anything, they do not let other nations peat them. If we really decide to have mercantile marine it is safe to say 1t twill be operated successfully, regard less of competition.

NOT GUILTY.

''The next time anybody asks me where I'm going I won't answer" said the ha- rassed traveller.
 'The idle. curiosity of other people vexes you, no doubt" remarked the sym pathetic old gentleman.
 T wouldn't mind that so much, but it's this way: When 1 told clerk in Phila- delphia that | wanted a ticket to Key West he smiled and said he wished he was going, too. When I got on Pull man and the porter found out where I was bound he grinned from ear to ear. In taking up my ticket the conductor re- marked with wink that great many people seemed to be going to Key West. Half a dozen men I've met on the train have inquired casually about my des- tination, and then guffawed when I told them. Confound the luck, I live in Key West. I've lived there for years and years and I'm not going there for the purpose Of catching a booze boat for Cuba!" PAUL COOK.

From the New York Commercial. 6T1dE farmers of North Dakota are now finding out what their adven- ture is socialism has cost them and
 will continue to cost them as long as it is continued. They have undertaken to hitherto rendered by private interests, or so-called middlemen, and are paying their
 taxes accordingly.
 The farmers of that state have been
 led to believe that they were being robbed by the so-called middlemen and that if theyf operated their grain elevators and
 warehouses themselves, to say nothing of
 other utilities. they would be able to se- cure these profits for the state. They therefore embarked upon a plan of state socialism with the greatest enthusiasm. ' Now the bills are coming in, and the story reads differently. Taxes are doubled
 and trebled and while it may be possible for farmers to store their wheat at a lower price than under private manage ment, which is questionable, the profits from the operation of these utilities which were supposed to reduce taxation
 have not only been so insignificant tha! they have fallen far short of their ex- pectations in that respect but the cost of construction and operation have added a
 burden which the farmers never contem- plated.

< # * Outsiders Are Showing Interest in Alabama

e7T7HE AGE-HERALD'S Montgom-
 S cry correspondent states that many inquiries about Alabama lands are being received by the division of immigration and markets of the state department of agriculture. These requests for information. come from all parts of the country.
 As was recently pointed out in these columns, the advantages Ala bama offers to farmers and stock raisers are drawing settlers who are in a position to develop the states resources on a large scale Officials at Montgomery believe that north ern farmers are turning to the south more and more. There is plenty of evidence to support that belief, not only passing through official chan nels, but reported in various sections of Alabama where new arrivals are establishing themselves as farmers and cattle growers.
 The various sections of the coun- try from which recent inquiries have been received show a widespread de- sire to know something more about Alabama, it's soil, it's climate and re- sources. A list of inquiries includes names credited to Indiana, California, Pennsylvania, Kentucky. Mississippi, Colorado, Iowa, South Dakota, Mis- souri,, Nebraska, Illinois and New York.
 Alabama will extend cordial vel come to strangers who wish to try their fortunes in this exceptionally favored state. If they understand farming and are industrious, they cannot fail.

1NHE Brooklyn Eagle is one of the
 0 few eastern papers that still feels called upon to read the south a lecture occasionally on it's sins of omission and commission These at tacks are usually conceived in a spirit of righteous wrath.
 Discussing the plan to found a ne- gro state somewhere along the Rie Grande, out of territory possibly ceded by Texas and Mexico for that purpose, the Eagle concludes by say ing the negro wants to stay where he is, if he can get the right sort of treatment. "It is common sense for the southern whites to muzzle their holsters and keep their cotton pick CTS. But that common sense is the most uncommon kind of sense is pro- verbial."
 The south's lynching record, along with that of other sections not south ern, is shameful and negroes are mis- treated by a rough, irresponsible ele- ment, but in the main they are an astonishingly happy and c0ntented race in section of the country which is just as much home to them as it is to white people.
 No denial is made of charges that have been brought from time to time by such newspapers as the Eagle, al- though sporadic outburst is often
