Some Tried Rules for the Killing Of
. Preacher.

Few people, if brought into court
would plead guilty to the charge of
killing their preacher. Some one has
written the following rules, guaran-
teeing that if carefully followed will
kill any preacher ON earth Read
them and see if you are killing your
preacher:
l. Stay away from church, especi-
ally on bad days, when you think the
crowd will be small.
2. Stay away from the Wednesday
night services because you know
there will only be handful present.
g.. When the services are over,
leave the church in a hurry without
speaking to the preacher a word of
encouragement.
4. When you get sick don't let him
know it, and then abuse him for not
coming to see you.
5. Never invite him or his family
out to dine in your home. They new
er enjoy social hour.
6. Pay just as little as you can on
his salary and then grumble about
that. This makes him feel good.
z. Never give him anything except
what you promised. This might make
him think you appreciated him.
g. Always have some fool excuse
when he wants you to do little work
That's what you pay HIM for.
8. Never offer to take him out in
your auto or lend him your horse and
buggy. This would be too kind.
10. Never call at his home, but
raise old Billy Cain because he doesn't
visit you once or twice month.
IL. Never offer to help him in any
way, for he might think you were
butting in.
IL. Act as cold and Indifferent
toward him as you can and he will
think you dignified

Tho Boy Scout Campaign

regret that Chairman w. R. Kreut-
zer's request for an article on the
Boy Scout Movement came at such an
inconvenient time that am COM
PEELED to present an apology rather
than the article itself For the Scout
Movement does strike me as really
important interest Any organiza-
tion that can appeal to boys in their
early teens, and by its discipline
and ideals control their life is at least
remarkable And that the Scout orr
ganization does this with facility
and completeness beyond any other is;
practically indisputable. Moreover.
when an organization with such fasci--
nation and power at the same time
successfully inculcates ideals and
habits of action of the highest moral
quality then it becomes public BEN
efactor Through the Boy Scouts our
boys are being taught, at highly
impressionable time of life,. honor,
courtesy, tenderness toward the weak,
courage, coolness of judgment, and
other qualities which adorn tho finest
manhood.
Through the Boy Scout agency the
boys can also be readily aligned with
other moral agencies. One of the in
teresting developments in the Com
munity School for Religious Educa-
tion is the Boy Scout Class which
suddenly appeared there under the
leadership of President Quigley. The
Boy Scout Code, doubt not, fur
nishes the teacher with a ready start
ing-point for every important moral
lesson.
There is 20 be-a Campaign, as un-
dsrstand, for membership. 1t deserves
the widest success. Only those who
are uninterested in boys can remain
indifferent. And of course to be un-
Interested i'm boys is to be uninter-
ested in the more vigorous part OF
tomorrow's citizenship.

MIDLAND NOT TO
BUILD, GOES As JUNK

Word was received in Delta this
week that the Midland road would
not be built into this point this year,
and it was doubtful if the road would
resume operations. The opinion was
expressed that the entire system
would be junked just as soon as the
road could be put into condition to
run trains over for that purpose.
The only hope that Delta people
and the people of the Uncompahgre
Valley have now is the possible ex-
tension of the line from Somerset to
Placita by the Denver & Rio Grande.
The Rio Grande wants to extend but
at this time while in the hands Of a
receiver the matter cannot be official
ly undertaken by them. 1t has been
proposed that separate company
take up the matter and finance it and
build the line with an understanding
with the Rio Grande that they will
operate and purchase it at later
date.
The tonnage to make this line pay
and pay we'll is in sight with the open
ing up of big anthracite coal de-
posite to say nothing of the tonnage
Of crops and the shorter passenger
route into Denver Further the Col
orado Fuel and Iron company is going
to build connecting link down from
Crested Butte mines to connect with
this line, which would tap it about
six miles above Somerset.-Montros

As part of the Tenth Birthday

lea, the week commencing Memorial
Day, May Both, and ending Sunday,

as Boy Scout Week. In 1900 COM
munities where Scout troops are es-

The remarkable growth of the Boy
Scouts of America has given a great
stimulus to the outdoor activities of
American boys. 1t is probable that
throughout the past year more boys
have spent days and nights in the
open under leadership than ever be-
fore in the history of the United

Scouts have taken this message of
the outdoors into their homes, have
conducted open-window campaigns
