eral, but failed.
His sister, mother of Joyce, sup
uosed he had been unavoidedly de-
tanned, and his wife, not knowing of
his non arrival in Boulder, conclu-
ded when he did not return home
that he had decided to spend a few
days at his sisters home The re-
suit was that 1t was several DAYS
before his disappearance became
known to his relatives
Investigation revealed that he had
left his automobile in a garage at
1874 Market street. The machine

WHEN THE FARMER COMES To
TOWN

How do you greet the farme-
, when he comes to town?
Is your greeting such that h
feels that he is with us, but not {
us? Or is he made to feel that L {
is in HIS town. among HIS peopl
and with HIS friends?
The making or the marring of tn ]
town depends greatly upon your att.
rude toward the farmer when h.
comes to town.
He is the backbone of the con
munity and without his aid and e.
couragement we would be an u,
successful business community.
The townsman is no better tha j
bhe man from the country, and t.
farmer can claim no superiority ovs =
the townsman.
We are all human beings. with til >
same aims and purposes in life, an /
endowed with the same brands CT
Intelligence.
In fact, we are brothers OF a com
mon community, the only differeno G
being that the one lives in town
where life Is Il little more diversified
while the other breathes Gods pure
air in the green fields of the coun-
try.
When we ride out into the coun-
try the farmer extends the hand O ?
fellowship, bids us welcome, and
hands us hearty come again.
1t is delightful characteristic of
the man from the farm. for his gree
ting Is sincere and his invitation ia
from the heart.
But what of us when the same
farmer comes to town.
Is our welcome on the same high
plane as hisY
Is he made to feel and realize that
our smile is for HIM, and not for
the contents of his purpose
We OF the town are proud of the
farmers of this community, and of
their wives and their daughters.
They are men and women of a
high order of intelligence, whose in
tegrity is beyond question. and
whose thrift, and energy, and per-
eeverance is transforming our coun
tryside into hive of industry and
wealth.
But we fear that we of the town
are often forgetful of the great du-
ty that we owe to them for their
loyalty and generosity in support of
the local business community.
We ourselves know of the high
regard in which we hold the farm
ers of this community but we doubt
If the farmer knows of the warm
sentiments which we entertain to-
ward him.
And this is because we think much
and say too little
1t should not be so--it should be
otherwise than thus.
Let us of the town cultivate n
spirit more friendly and neighborly
let us open our hearts that
the FARMER may look Wlthln' Ior We
are but one big family and should
dwell together in unity and brotherly
love.
Let us act as we feel, and give
the farmer to understand that he
is of us, as well as with us.
We need each other, for a pros
erous farming community makes n
town add life and nejoyment to the
countryside. Elk.
